Re: classpath of a filter
You'd have to let your web app also be able to use the server classloader. You can do this by setting server=true in the Context declaration. That being said - whatever your trying to do is probably a very bad idea. -Tim Brij Naald wrote: Hi, i'm creating a filter which needs to know if the request is an instance of org.apache.catalina.connector.RequestFacade. When executing the 'if (request instanceof RequestFacade)' the program gives an error for that line: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/connector/RequestFacade I guess the RequestFacade is only in the classpath of the tomcat-server, and not in the one of the servlet itself.

Tomcat (and most other web containers) don't use the classpath as set as
an environment variable or on the commandline. They use
1/ the JARs in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib and bare class files in
WEB-INF/classes
2/ some container-specific hierarchy of classloaders, usually in a
chain-of-responsibility pattern. Tomcat uses
{Tomcat install}/common/lib
{Tomcat install}/common/classes
{Tomcat install}/shared/lib
{Tomcat install}/shared/classes
{Tomcat install}/server/lib
{Tomcat install}/server/classes
(though probably not in that order ;)
Long story short: if you use the container's (and the spec's) method of
making classes available, there should be no need to set a classpath.
Make your one other entry available in one of the places mentioned
above.

RE: ClassPath with Tomcat 4.1
David,
If you place your properties files in WEB-INF/classes , then they are
guaranteed to be on the class loading path for the web application.
I use the following code in my webapps:
Properties p = new Properties();
Files.loadConfigFile(/database.properties, p);
And in my 'Files' class, the loadConfigFile method looks something like:
public static Properties loadConfigFile(String fileName, Properties def)
{
Properties props = new Properties();
try {
logger.debug(USING Files.class.getResourceAsStream( + fileName
+ ));
InputStream input = Files.class.getResourceAsStream(fileName);
if (input != null) {
try {
props.load(input);
} catch (Exception e) {
} finally {
try {
input.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
//well, we played nice.
}
}
}
return props;
}

Online documentation about class loader says, System class loader operates on CLASSPATH. I have included j2ee.jar in my CLASSPATH, but tomcat is not picking it up. Why is it so? Wherever you saw these docs, they are wrong. Tomcat ignores the CLASSPATH variable. And, in any case, trying to use j2ee.jar with Tomcat is pure evil ;-). Just install the components that you need, and you may finish your project in finite time :). 2.

RE: Classpath Conundrum (2nd try)
For the sake of argument, I moved all the classes from /native into /WEB-INF/classes and I moved all the classes from /foreign into /WEB-INF/lib. Also, for the sake of being extra careful, I packaged up everthing in /WEB-INF/lib into classes.jar (so there's two copies there, the raw directory tree and the JAR file). Then I restarted Tomcat and loaded the servlet. The servlet itself (from the /classes tree) attempted to load, but it broke because one of its dependencies (from the /lib tree) was missing. According to the Application Developer's Guide to which you referred me... When you install an application into Tomcat (or any other 2.2/2.3-compatible server), the classes in the WEB-INF/classes/ directory, as well as all classes in JAR files found in the WEB-INF/lib/ directory, are made visible to other classes within your particular web application. ... no adjustment to the system class path (or installation of global library files in your server) will be necessary. So I expected the contents of /WEB-INF/lib, either the raw files or the packaged JAR, to be automatically loaded. Was I mistaken?

RE: Classpath Conundrum (2nd try)
Howdy, Having followed and this whole thread and bit my tongue until now... Somehow there must be a way to get the class loader to look in the /foreign and /native directories :-( Searching the list archives reveals that every now and then someone comes along with your situation or a near approximation, and every time they go through all sorts of twists/bends/hacks to get it to work. It's always the same hassle, with one of two possible results: 1. They sober up and modify their directory structure into a more conventional structure such as the one outlined here: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/deployment.html 2. They do manage to make a hack work, resulting in a non-standard, non-portable, non-supported, fragile, difficult to maintain installation. You can save yourself and your employer a lot of time and write an Ant script that deploys into a standard structure from the messed up one you have now. That way the developers can still work with their directory structure (native, foreign, etc.), the source code control system does not need to be changed, and you don't have to hack around the servlet container's classloading.

Re: Classpath problem with Tomcat running in Embedded mode
Hi, If you're calling Bootstrap.main(), please also have a look at the source code within Bootstrap. You'll find that Bootstrap just sets the ground for the Catalina classes...It creates a classloader hierarchy, with classloaders for classes visible to just Catalina, and for visibility between both Catalina and Webapps. Each webapp has a classloader to itself. What you should do instead is have a look at how Embedded works, and do something like that yourself. This may not be the intended approach behind supplying Embedded, but this is how I've bundled Tomcat 4.0.1 for a Swing based app I had to once develop. -- Sriram --- sandeep arshanapally [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for your reply.

Subject: CLASSPATH setting in Windows with JDBC from mySQL
Hi all, does anyone know how I should set the Class Path Variable in
Windows in order for JSP to search for the library?
I've already tried the following methods but it cannot find the driver
when I tried to load an jsp page:
Method 1
I've currently install the JDBC driver on my C:\mysql\JDBC\
And have tried setting my classpath to point to that folder as below
Set CLASSPATH=C:\mysql\JDBC\;.
Method 2
Copied mysql-connector-java-3.0.8-stable-bin.jar to
C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\common\lib
And simply set my classpath=.
Method 3
Copied mysql-connector-java-3.0.8-stable-bin.jar to
C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\jre\lib
And again set my classpath=.
I've also tried setting my classpath to point specifically to the JDBC
driver but still, the page cannot find the driver.
The only method that works now is that I've copied
mysql-connector-java-3.0.8-stable-bin.jar to my
/webapps/testAPPS/WEB-INF/lib
Using this method, which means I have a copy of
mysql-connector-java-3.0.8-stable-bin.jar in every docBase that I have
which I find is redundant. Is there any working solution that I can
simply set in using my CLASSPATH? Also, I have no problem setting it in
CLASSPATH in Linux but I dunno why it doesn't work in Windows. :-( Now
that is reason why I preferred Linux.

Joe
I've tried a lot of combination and have copy

Re: Classpath Question
I ran against the same problem and found a solution I'm more or less happy with (perhaps someone with more experience can correct me if my solution is crazy.) If you ABSOLUTELY cannot move your classes into %TOMCAT_HOME% \common\classes directory, there is another option: In your %TOMCAT_HOME%\bin\setclasspath.bat file, you can redefine the CLASSPATH variable to include all the important tomcat .jar files plus your classpath. This bypasses the bootstrapper. I.e.: . . set TOMCAT_HOME=c:\tomcat set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\activation.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME%\common\lib\mail.jar; %TOMCAT_HOME%\common\lib\ant.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\commons-collections.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\commons-dbcp.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\commons-logging-api.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\commons-pool.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\jasper-compiler.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\jasper-runtime.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\jdbc2_0-stdext.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\jndi.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME%\common\lib\jta.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\mail.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\naming-common.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\naming-factory.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\naming-resources.jar;%TOMCAT_HOME% \common\lib\servlet.jar;%YOUR_CLASSPATH% .

Re: Classpath Question
A problem with the classpath should indicate a classpath related exception, which essentially is an inability to find a class. Why do you think that hte java.rmi.ServerException fits into this pattern? If you don't declare where the class paths [sic] are for each application how do you expect the JVM to find the classes?

tomcat doesn't use the classpath. put your jar in your webapp's lib dir (myapp/WEB-INF/lib) or in the common dir(/common/lib). You probably want them in the common lib so that the database drivers are shared between all webapps. see the classloader doc for more info on how these directories are used.

RE: Classpath
no, because it is too easy to have conflicting libraries between tomcat and the classpath. Therefore tomcat 4.x does not use the classpath. The bootstrap loads from /jre/lib/ext, but if you are going to put your library there, then just put it under tomcat instead unless you have a *real* reason to keep it there. what's wrong with moving(or copying) the jar to common/lib?

RE: Classpath Issues, Tomcat 4.X and J2EE Interoperability frustrations...
Hi, Wow, what a long message ;) I don't have time to reply to everything, but the general answer is: tomcat is a servlet/JSP container at this point. Not a J2EE container. Inter-operating with remote J2EE servers, at least for us, has proven easy. We've never used tomcat 3.x, only 4.x, so I can't comment on version differences. One more comment is that the weblogic.jar distribution is, IMHO, one of the best examples of how NOT to package things. You simply got lucky that it had javax.xml.transform, along with a ton of other things that don't belong in there. Just look at the weblogic boards and mailing lists to see how many times they've been slammed and requested to split their jar into smaller pieces. For example, some of our apps only need to send JMS messages to a remote weblogic server, so we've had to take out everything non-JMS/JNDI related from the weblogic.jar and repackage it. I'm also curious as to what version of the JDK you are using. 1. Should one assume use of the J2EE SDK distribution of Tomcat is required for J2EE interoperability, per 2.0 spec? More directly, is it reasonable to try to get J2EE interopability with the apache distribution of Tomcat? No to the first question, yes to the second. It depends by what you mean by J2EE interoperability. Tomcat implements the servlet and JSP specs, which define very specific facilities (ejb resource definition in web.xml, etc.) for interaction with the broader J2EE world. Using tomcat with the J2EE SDK won't give tomcat any magical features. 2. Why is there no javax.xml.transform implementation inside the apache Tomcat distribution? That's not part of tomcat. It's usually distributed with your parser (e.g. Crimson or Xerces), or more recently with JDK 1.4.x. 3. For a J2EE container to be interoperable per the spec, would it be reasonable to assume this means class loading issues inside the client container have been tested/addressed? Yes, and they have been for tomcat. 4. How is one supposed to develop a reasonable plan/approach for J2EE interoperability? Or is interoperability a bad idea? I would say that interoperability is not a bad idea. I think it's a good thing. The first part of developing a reasonable plan / approach would be to understand what your different components, e.g. tomcat if that's what you choose as your client container, support and don't support. Perhaps you should use JBoss or Weblogic as your client container as well? TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib. This also provided a usable implementation of javax.xml.transform. This is one of the main problems. See my comment regarding weblogic.jar above. How do you know what version of javax.xml.transform is inside the weblogic.jar? What if you want to talk to weblogic, but your webapps require a newer javax.xml.transform implementation? narrow on PortableRemoteObject. Assumption is because a given home is now loaded in two separate class loaders, this is causing problems? Don't know exactly. I wouldn't rush to conclude this assumption is true. I think it bears more investigating. If both classloader chains are self-consistent, i.e. no conflicting versions of classes in either chain, you should be fine. In a second attempted configuration, tried to move weblogic.jar down from TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib to WEB-INF/lib. This has side affect of warning messages about not loading javax.servlet per 2.3 spec section 9.7.2. Fine. Why is this fine? I think moving weblogic.jar to /WEB-INF/lib is a good step, but weblogic.jar has too much conflicting stuff in it. else! Fine, we added xalan.jar to TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib. We then blew up If you add this and don't remove the other javax.xml.transform implementation, i.e. the one in weblogic jar, you can expect a blow-up. In considering a third configuration, we began investigating using RMI-IIOP to communicate with WL. In theory this should be possible per EJB spec 2.0 section 19? First immediate problem seemed to be that Tomcat has no javax.ejb classes available. Would seem these classes are only available when running Tomcat under the J2EE SDK distribution? In general uncertainty about this, and whether it will even address class loading issues, has caused us to wait before proceeding. Fumble. See above comments regarding tomcat is not a J2EE server, doesn't claim to be. Finally, a fourth configuration was tried which seemed to have some promise, with a serious drawback. Would appear that things basically work if we put everything, weblogic.jar, jdbc drivers, application jars, testing jars, etc into TOMCAT_HOME/shared. Unfortunately, this pretty much eliminates/defeats any hope of deploying applications without tearding down the container and also complicates the build/deployment process as we can no longer just throw a new .war file over the wall at operations. Penalty. I agree that this is not a good approach. Keep in mind that for the most part, web applications are supposed to be self-contained. You
RE: Classpath Issues, Tomcat 4.X and J2EE Interoperability frustrations...
Yoav and JeanFrancios, Thank you both for your replies. They were helpful and somewhat reassuring. At the general level: We are aware that Tomcat is not a full J2EE container. But servlets calling EJB's is bread and butter stuff. We have been successfully using Tomcat to talk to WebLogic for 2 years, so know it can work. But each time we go through an upgrade, of either component, we repeat the same voodoo process of jar, jar, where to put the jar. This jar jungle is a nightmarish flashback to dll hell from C++/Windows days. What we are looking for is two things. One, some reassurance we aren't in the wilderness using Tomcat to talk to WebLogic. Two, a better foundation for developing strategies for handling jar packaging and classloading issues. I think I got a little of both from your replies. At the specifics: We are currently using JDK 1.3.1. Considered the need to break out weblogic.jar, just hoping to avoid it. Will put specific re-packaging of required javax.* classes back back on the list. Cleaning up issues with conflicts, overlaps and gaps in javax.xml.* implementations is one of our motivators to upgrade, so we can also get to JDK 1.4 and get out of the mess. Unfortunately this is a painful catch 22. Have considered using JBoss or WebLogic for our servlet container. This option is still on the table. It has drawbacks, but puts everything inside the same dotted box and thus eliminates some interop baggage. Have also considered using J2EE 1.3 as a container for running Tomcat, thus providing more full J2EE support. Also still on the table. Still not at the root of the class cast exception when running our first choice config. The classloader chains did look consistent and clean. Jean-Francios mentioned something about when the home/remote skeletons get loaded (did you mean stubs?). Will look at this, as it is also consistent with other ideas about how to use RMI-IIOP and the use of the client jar generated from ejbc on the tomcat side. Thanks again. Helpful. But still, feel like we could write a paper on the dark side of J2EE ownership and maintenance.

Should I understand this all to say that Tomcat is not at all J2EE 1.3 compliant? Section 6.1.2 states that a compliant web container supports EJB client API's! Section 6.4 states that a container that supports the EJB client API's must also support interoperability requirements. Section 6.11 states a container must support JAXP, including one SAX2 parser, one DOM 2 parser and one transformer.

Placed this in TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib. This also provided a usable implementation of javax.xml.transform. Our application jars are all placed in WEB-INF/lib. Problem occurred when referencing an EJBHome first from one web app, then subsequently from another. Led to class cast exceptions when doing the narrow on PortableRemoteObject. Assumption is because a given home is now loaded in two separate class loaders, this is causing problems? Well, I don't think it's related. This error usually occurs when your initial home/remote interface skeleton are in your classpath By initial, I mean before deploying your app. You need the home/remote interface skeleton that are generated *after* the deployment in your classpath. WebLogic probably add some IIOP stuff in your home/remote interface. Don't know exactly. The home remote stub gets loaded by a WL classloader whose parent is the WebppClassLoader, whose parent is the StandardClassLoader for shared. The home interface is loaded by the WebappClassLoader, whose parent is the StandardClassLoader for shared. Interception. In a second attempted configuration, tried to move weblogic.jar down from TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib to WEB-INF/lib. This has side affect of warning messages about not loading javax.servlet per 2.3 spec section 9.7.2. Fine. It also appeared to result in loss of the javax.xml.transform implementation in weblogic.jar. Looks like something to do with not messing with JAXP from WEB-INF, only the classes in question don't exist anywhere else! Fine, we added xalan.jar to TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib. We then blew up on first attempt to use a WL hosted DataSource, with class not found issues. This looks like issues with javax.sql classes that have been loaded higher up the loader hierarchy not being able to find stuff down inside WEB-INF/lib. Punt. Which version of Java are you using? In considering a third configuration, we began investigating using RMI-IIOP to communicate with WL. In theory this should be possible per EJB spec 2.0 section 19? Its mandatory if you are using a J2EE 1.3 Compatible implementation. First immediate problem seemed to be that Tomcat has no javax.ejb classes available. Would seem these classes are only available when running Tomcat under the J2EE SDK distribution? Yes. Tomcat doesn't need to know anything about J2EE API. In general uncertainty about this, and whether it will even address class loading issues, has caused us to wait before proceeding. Fumble. Finally, a fourth configuration was tried which seemed to have some promise, with a serious drawback. Would appear that things basically work if we put everything, weblogic.jar, jdbc drivers, application jars, testing jars, etc into TOMCAT_HOME/shared. Unfortunately, this pretty much eliminates/defeats any hope of deploying applications without tearding down the container and also complicates the build/deployment process as we can no longer just throw a new .war file over the wall at operations. Penalty. Ya...this is certainly not the solution. Have you try deploying your stuff with the Sun J2EE's RI 1.3? -- Jeanfrancois Any feedback is appreciated.

RE: Classpath and Aliases on Tomcat 4
tomcat does not use the classpath. your classes must go under /tomcat/common/lib or within your context. you can try soft links, but they are disabled in 4.1.x by default. for your static files, just create a directory under your context - then you can access it as a subdir in your url. you also need to rename your .zip files that contatin classes to .jar Charlie -Original Message- From: Matthew Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 2:23 AM To: Tomcat Users List (E-mail) Subject: Classpath and Aliases on Tomcat 4 G'Day, I hope I'm not about to rehash an old subject here. I couldn't find a satisfactory answer in the mail archives. I have a web-based application that is not designed as a webapp. It has a single servlet as its interface to the world. This servlet, and all of its supporting classes, are in a directory on the file system. Some of the classes are unpackaged, while most of them are in JAR or ZIP files. It also relies on another directory on the file system for images. I am trying to configure a webapp to use this application. I need to know how to do two things: Add elements to the classpath from elsewhere on the file system; and add a static directory to a web app (as in the Alias command in the Apache web server). Currently, I have created a seperate web app for the static files and just pointed its base directory at the images directory. I was hoping for a better way (other than to use IIS or Apache). The classpath issue is more difficult. I was able to accomplish this in Tomcat 3 by passing the -Dorg.apache.tomcat.apps.classpath=xxx system property in the tomcat.bat file. Tomcat 4 (Catalina) doesn't seem to know about this property. I tried adding the path directly to Tomcat's classpath, but it seems that in that case, the wrong class loader is used: I get a NoClassDefFoundError on HttpServlet. Any suggestions anyone? All help muchly appreciated.

RE: classpath problem
Andrew, Yes theses are parts of a package. They are just common classes that I wish to use across multiple apps. Im not sure what you mean by Did you build the package directory structure to match in the %CATALINA$\common\classes? I did not change the packages at all, I copied them directly from my system classpath (where they were being picked up by a previous Tomcat install) *directly* into the $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes folder. ie : %CATALINA$\common\classes contains first level folders such as com, org, javax etc. My install did not even have a $CATALINA$\shared\classes folder.. however as you suggested i created one, re-started and again it did not work. I have tried puttintg the reported missing class in my apps /WEB-INF/classes folder already, this is not where my problem is, i need the common classes to be picked up from one place as i dont want to compromise and copy these common classes into several apps /WEB-INF/classes directory.

Re: classpath problem
Andrew, Thanks, it seems to have resolved itself.

RE: Classpath problems
Howdy, The simplest way: look into server.xml, change all debug=0 to debug=99. This will get more info than you probably want, but that's (usually) a good thing when debugging ;) As an aside: classpath problems typically don't require that much debugging information. If you get a class not found type of error, make sure the class or a jar containing it is visible to your web application. See the tomcat 4.x classloader documentation at: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html I hope this helps, Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics -Original Message- From: David Goodenough [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 6:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Classpath problems I am having the inevitable initial classpath problems setting up my first servlet under Tomcat 4.0.3 (the one shipped with Sun JWSDP).

Re: classpath problem
All Tomcat is doing is expanding the directory. If it was Web-inf there, then that is what it will be expanded as. One thing to do is to make sure that Windows explorer isn't just displaying it that way even though it is properly upper-cased. You might want to look at it though the command line and see if the case is still Web-inf. If you configure Explorer to show classic folders, you will be less likely to run into this problem..

Re: Classpath problems with Tomcat4 and RedHat 7.2
Do you have a CATALINA_HOME environment variable set? That might cause this... [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/07/02 09:21AM I am having problems reading a resource file I placed in /var/tomcat4/common/lib. I also tried placing it in /var/tomcat4/common/classes. I wrote a small JSP which lists the classpath and I notice it prints out as /var/tomcat/common/lib (missing the 4). Does anyone know where this is set?
RE: Classpath problems with Tomcat4 and RedHat 7.2
Yes, CATALINA_HOME is set to /var/tomcat4 Here is my simple jsp %@ page language=java % %@ page import = java.util.* % %@ page import = java.io.* % % Properties prop = System.getProperties(); % Java class path: %=prop.getProperty(java.class.path)% % Properties props = new Properties(); FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(DBConnMgr.properties); props.load(fin); % P %=props.getProperty(admin.log)% The java.class.path returned is Java class path: /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/lib/tools.jar:/var/tomcat/common/lib/:/var/tomcat4/ bin/bootstrap.jar Notice the missing 4 in the common/lib classpath. It is interesting that the bootstrap.jar is listed as being in /var/tomcat4 but common/lib is listed as being in /var/tomcat. I'm still trying to figure out where the classpath is set. I know how to do this when tomcat is started from a shell but not as a daemon. If I place the DBConnMgr.properties file in my root directory it works. When I place it in /var/tomcat4/common/lib (or any other supposedly valid classpath) it does not.
