答复: 答复: An exception, would anybody tell me the reason?
Chris Thanks for replying. The thread dump is created in product server which I can't access directly. What u see is just part of snapshot for the stack when the server hang. I have no idea of what happened as well, so I will ask the one in charge of server for more info. Maybe the problem will be solved when I know more, maybe I will ask you again. Anyway, thank you for your help. Thank u, it seems I misunderstood the meaning of thread dump. The thread dump was created when the tomcat hang, could you find any clue of the reason? What you gave was was called a stack trace. Stack traces are generated when exceptions are thrown but not caught (they are caught by the Java VM and generally printed to standard output) or when a thread dump is requested. If you got a thread dump, then you must have requested one. As I recall, there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the dump you showed. Why don't you tell us more about what is happening? -chris - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Problem starting Tomcat 5.5 or 5.0 with java option, instead of jvm.
Hi I'm unable to start Tomcat (5.5.16, 5.0.28) when the startup mode is set to java Starting it in jvm mode is ok No errors in tomcat logs, Tried to find related information on the web, but all related info is did not help.

mod_jk connection_pool_size property
I have setup load balancing between Apache 1.3.33 and Tomcat 4.0.6 using the mod_jk connector. Initial tests were fine and the balancing seemed to work a treat. However, with any load on the server, I was seeing 503 errors reporting server unavailability. To resolve this issue, I set the following property in the workers.properties file: connection_pool_size=1000 which has resolved the immediate problem and the system can now process a heavy load without failure. The only thing that troubles me, that's preventing me from claiming success is the following note in red highlighting in the apache documentation, which can be viewed online at http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/config/workers.html. Extract: Do not use connection_pool_size with values higher then 1 on *Apache 2.xprefork * or *Apache 1.3.x*!. Can anyone explain the reason why this shouldnt be done? My system seems to work fine, but I'd be nervous going live with the configuration described above, without first understanding the warning in the apache docs. Any help will be great! JR
Servlet that needs ROOT access
Is it possible to run Tomcat as non ROOT (desirable as I see from FAQs/other threads), but have a servlet that needs ROOT access? Or is the solution to have the servlet application code running as a separate daemon outside tomcat, with some form of comms to tomcat servlet when tasks need to be done? -Paul - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Servlet that needs ROOT access
Hi Paul, If you use root to run, which means tomcat can access anywhere as your root can do upload a simple script (if you application has that function can crash your system), if you create a specific user and group, and define permission nicely, this specific user can only do specific thing as you dont need change most of other user and group's permission besides, you can ensure your tomcat by : 1. start it using catalina.sh with security manager, this would be more strict and you have to define your policy well otherwise your webapp will not even work 2. block certain hosts (assume you know some ip addresses or range always trying to break into system...) put them into /etc/hosts.deny 3. only open ports that you need, 4. use firewall 5, To make your tomcat secure is not just on tomcat itself but have to consider OS wide.

Re: mod_jk not compiling correctly (apparently) - 'garbled' error
Found the problem, so in case anyone is interested: Chris wrote: My suggestion above is almost certainly the problem: you have two competing versions of Apache installed. You should pick one and uninstall the other. From experience, I have to say that using the version available from the package manager (does CentOS use RPM?) is almost always better than compiling everything yourself, because dependencies are generally checked appropriately, etc. when you let the package manager handle everything. Just my .02. -chris Despite my claiming Apache wasn't already installed, Chris was right. Sorry for my mistake and the resulting confusion. A 'yum list installed httpd' showed the previous version was present, and that explains the problem. We can at least get mod_jk compiled and installed now.

RE: Servlet that needs ROOT access

No. Or is the solution to have the servlet application code running as a separate daemon outside tomcat, with some form of comms to tomcat servlet when tasks need to be done? That would be my preference if I were implementing this. How much of your 'servlet application code' *actually* needs root access? Can you partition into a small piece that does, and most that doesn't? Minimising your attack surface in this way would probably be useful. Can you give us any more information about what you're doing that requires root? Does it *have* to require root, or can the requirement be reduced so that a non-root Tomcat can also do the same thing? In one sense this opens up an alternative hole; in another, depending on what you're doing, that may be better than allowing unrestricted root access to all tasks. - Peter - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Servlet that needs ROOT access
From: Paul McMahon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The servlet application needs to do things like mkfs, vgcfgrestore, vgchange, mount and umount. I'd use setuid scripts with very careful permissions: - Write some shell scripts, one per action, to do what you need; - Audit those scripts for possible security holes; - Put the Tomcat process into its own group (let's call it 'tomcat'); - chown root.tomcat script - chmod 710 script - chmod u+s script - Call the scripts from the servlet. At this point, your threats come from: someone breaking into your servlet or installing a new servlet on the machine and running a script as Tomcat (damage limited to whatever the script can do); someone su-ing to tomcat (ditto); someone gaining the same group membership as Tomcat (ditto); someone affecting filestore and being able to change permissions (major damage); or holes in the scripts (damage potentially unlimited). There may be other threats I've not seen. But I ain't a security expert :-). - Peter - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Tomcat creates a cookie with a new jsessionid when timeout occurs
Hi there. I have the following problem in my web application. I am using the url rewriting method for session maintenance, but when a timeout occurs in my web application, tomcat sets a cookie named jsessionid (used for session tracking purposes) with a new session id value before redirecting the user to the login page. This jsessionid cookie value does not match the previous session id, it is a new one, and is also different from the new one created in the (re)login process. Why does this happen? Does tomcat always create a jsessionid cookie when a timeout occurs? And if this is a tomcat issue, how do I disallow this (if it is possible, anyway)? Regards, Luís Amorim
RE: configuring 2 servlets on different ports
All webapps listen on the same http port if deployed within the same tomcat instance. Your option is to deploy each webapp on its own instance of tomcat, each listening on a different port.

Re: configuring 2 servlets on different ports
Jim, actually, they are already in separate webapps, and I still can't find a way to configure them to bind to separate ports. Are you running a single instance of Tomcat with two connectors? Or, are you running two instances of Tomcat, each with one connector? I think the second option will do what you want. -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: Servlet that needs ROOT access
Everyone, The servlet application needs to do things like mkfs, vgcfgrestore, vgchange, mount and umount. Eek. From a webapp? I'd use setuid scripts with very careful permissions: - Write some shell scripts, one per action, to do what you need; - Audit those scripts for possible security holes; I agree. In fact, I might even go farther and suggest that you go with more a batch-job-list configuration, where your webapp drops descriptions of the work to be done into a directory or a database or something. Then, have a cron job or something like that come along every so often and process the jobs. Firing off new processes from Java can get ugly (even though it really shouldn't be), and if you are putting user input into your command-line, you're just asking for trouble. With batch-style processing, you generally treat everything as data and not as a command (as one might be tempted do when firing off a process from within the JVM). If you need to do stuff like mkfs, mount, etc. I assume that this is an /intranet/-style webapp -- meaning that your users are relatively trusted when compared to an open web site. -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Tomcat restart needed
Hi. In my web application, I have a thread running in the background that sends emails to the user when some event occurs. However, yesterday it stopped sending emails. I've checked catalina.out log and there was no exception in there, apparently it was all ok. So, I've restarted tomcat and things went back to normal, which means the thread started to send emails again. My question is: why did this happen, why was necessary to restart tomcat to get things right? Regards, Luís Amorim
Re: Tomcat creates a cookie with a new jsessionid when timeout occurs
Luis, I am using the url rewriting method for session maintenance, but when a timeout occurs in my web application, tomcat sets a cookie named jsessionid (used for session tracking purposes) with a new session id value before redirecting the user to the login page. This jsessionid cookie value does not match the previous session id, it is a new one, and is also different from the new one created in the (re)login process. This is expected behavior. Why does this happen? Does tomcat always create a jsessionid cookie when a timeout occurs? And if this is a tomcat issue, how do I disallow this (if it is possible, anyway)? Tomcat is creating a new session in this case because it is redirecting the user to the login page, and wants to make sure that the original request (the one that was intercepted in order to take the user to the login page) is fulfilled. It does this by storing that information in the session (or, if not actually /in/ the session, it is at least /related/ to the session). So, Tomcat is preparing for a login, and creates a session to handle everything. If you want to disable session creation, I think you are going to have to turn off container-managed authentication (and then you'll have to implement your own). -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for connect URL 'null'
Trawick, I do check the firewall, yes it was on. It has the option of adding exceptions to allow programs/service to connect to the machine. So I added SQL server 2000 on port 1433. This probably shouldn't have mattered, since you mentioned that everything is running on the local machine. The firewall usually won't interfere with localhost-localhost communications. I did netstat -an on command prompt to see active connection... but port 1433 is not listed. I also used sysinternals.org as suggested and SQL Server is not listed. This might mean SQL Server is not using TCP/IP on port 1433??? I'm not sure about SQL Server, but some DBs like MySQL allow localhost communication through some means /other than/ TCP (MySQL uses a named pipe on the filesystem -- not an option in win32 AFAIK). Anyhow, is it possible that TCP/IP communication is not enabled? This would suggest otherwise: I checked Client Network Utility service for SQL server 2000 and saw that TCP/IP is enabled on port 1433. Does that mean that SQL Server is expecting to accept connections on 1433? I assume so. Stupid question: is SQL Server actually running? -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: mod_jk connection_pool_size property
Java Rab wrote: I have setup load balancing between Apache 1.3.33 and Tomcat 4.0.6 using the mod_jk connector. Initial tests were fine and the balancing seemed to work a treat. However, with any load on the server, I was seeing 503 errors reporting server unavailability. To resolve this issue, I set the following property in the workers.properties file: connection_pool_size=1000 which has resolved the immediate problem and the system can now process a heavy load without failure. The only thing that troubles me, that's preventing me from claiming success is the following note in red highlighting in the apache documentation, which can be viewed online at http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/config/workers.html. Extract: Do not use connection_pool_size with values higher then 1 on *Apache 2.xprefork * or *Apache 1.3.x*!. Can anyone explain the reason why this shouldnt be done? My system seems to work fine, but I'd be nervous going live with the configuration described above, without first understanding the warning in the apache docs. Any help will be great! Apache 1.3 and Apache 2.x-prefork create a separate child process for each client connection, meaning that if you have default 250 MaxClients, you can end up with MaxClients * connection_pool_size connections to the Tomcat, that would in your case be 25. Pretty high number, right :) With worker mpm the connection_pool_size defaults to ThreadsPerChild, that in the final gives the MaxClients connections to the Tomcat. So the default value for connection_pool_size is always ThreadsPerChild that with prefork mpm is by design always 1. I suggest that you Google for worker/prefork mpm theory and usability. Lots of OS vendors simply choose prefork mpm without any analysis, simply presuming its more safe then any semi threaded model.

Sessions in Tomcat
I am running into a strange situation with my session using tomcat 5.0.I have a jsp that puts two objects into a session which is used by all succeeding jsp pages. The first browser session works fine and I can navigate thru all my pages without a problem. A few minutes later I open another browser window and I immediately get a null pointer exception. I traced the problem to accessing the objects in the session. The jsp that does a session.setAttribute(test,obj) works fine. When I do a System.out.println(Contents of obj=,obj) I get the proper value. But when I do a session.getAttribute(test) I get a null pointer exception. I checked Tomcat/conf/web.xml and see the session-config element set to 30 minutes. When I added to the jsp to check if the session is invalid do a request.getSession() to create a new session I get the same results. I finally tried going into Tomcat's manager and doing a reload. Both browser sessions bring to work normally, the original browser continues as if nothing happened and the second browser session loads without the null pointer exception. Is there something I am not setting? Even more bizarre, after I do a reload of the website if I open two browser windows very quickly they both succeed. When I let a browser window sit with no activity for more than two or three minutes and I click to a link to navigate thru my jsp pages I immediately get a null pointer exception anywhere I am accessing the one of the session objects.

Fair enough. Are the JSPs, servlets, etc., ... all being called from the /home/myaccount/tomcat5/webapps directory?

Re: Tomcat 5.5 and IPv6 configuration
Hans Müller wrote: currently I'm trying to set-up a standalone Tomcat 5.5.17 server in an IPv6 environment on a FreeBSD 6.1 machine. Unfortunately, Tomcat refuses to start. Here is the relevant content of the catalina.out log-file: SEVERE: StandardServer.await: create[8005]: java.net.BindException: Can't assign requested address [...] Then I looked at the particular portion of the source code which causes the exception and I found that the IPv4 address 127.0.0.1 is actually hardcoded several times there (in StandardServer.java, Catalina.java and some others). Of course, the JVM cannot create an IPv6 address using this IPv4 representation. Therefore I changed 127.0.0.1 to localhost, recompiled Tomcat and happily discovered that it is working now. BUT... since I can read everywhere that Tomcat should be IPv6 compliant, this code-change doesn't seem to be the real solution to me. Firtly I'm not the only one who is using IPv6 and secondly the developers are definitely not that stupid to hardcode an IPv4 address and thereby break IPv6 compatibility. So, I'd like to ask you if there is a configuration-only way to solve this issue, i.e. to avoid that StandardServer is being called? I've never had the problem you describe. I use Linux though. On my machine the shutdown port binds to IPv6 representation of 127.0.0.1: tcp6 0 0 :::127.0.0.1:8007 :::*LISTEN 7970/java (I've changed the port from 8005 to 8007). Are you using APR?

Re: How to disable cookies for session management in Tomcat

Re: Tomcat creates a cookie with a new jsessionid when timeout occurs
Luis, Hello, Christopher. Thanks for your reply. Can you please tell me how do I turn off container-managed authentication? You need to remove any security-constraint elements from your web.xml file. Note that the presence of any security-constraint elements probably means that your application is expecting some kind of authentication. Don't turn off logins just because you're angry that sessions are being created ;) -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: Streaming PDF over HTTPS
Francesco, These work fine over http, but Tomcat gives me the following message if I run the application over https sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found This usually indicates that Java is trying to make an HTTPS connection to a server that does not have a trusted certificate installed locally. So, first: does your servlet make any outgoing HTTPS connections? If you are using something like Cocoon to do transformations or you are loading up some kind of page description file over HTTPS, then this may be the case. If you /are/ making such a connection, make sure that the cert for the remote server (even if it is the local server :) ) has been imported into your keystore that Java is using. -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: Sessions in Tomcat
Donald, The first browser session works fine and I can navigate thru all my pages without a problem. A few minutes later I open another browser window and I immediately get a null pointer exception. Is it possible that you are have cookies turned off and are having the JSP encode the jsessionid into each URL? If that's the case, you might be simply typing a URL into your second browser window that doesn't have this magic parameter, and therefore not getting a session. [After a restart, ] both browser sessions bring to work normally, the original browser continues as if nothing happened and the second browser session loads without the null pointer exception. No, that's just plain weird. Is there something I am not setting? Even more bizarre, after I do a reload of the website if I open two browser windows very quickly they both succeed. When I let a browser window sit with no activity for more than two or three minutes and I click to a link to navigate thru my jsp pages I immediately get a null pointer exception anywhere I am accessing the one of the session objects. Hmm... perhaps your browser is configured to prohibit cookie life longer than a couple of minutes??? Seems far-fetched, but you've got a weird problem. How are you getting your session? Can you post a bit of code? It would be particularly useful to see the code you use to create the session, to get the attributes (as well as verify that the session exists), and then the place where the NPE is being thrown. -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Thanks for the idea. Unfortunately, it did not work.

now looks like:
Context path=/mobiledoc
docBase=/home/myacct/tomcat5/webapps/mobiledoc

But when I start tomcat, I get...

Just a stab in the dark, but why don't you try to put the absolute path

something is getting screwy with your environment (CATLINA_{HOME| BASE}

RE: Someone Please: Why Is Tomcat Looking In The Wrong Directory?
Chris, It makes sense, but before I try the symlink approach, be advised of the full scenario. Multiple doctor's offices will be connected to the same server. Each office will have its own instance of tomcat running a copy (sometimes a different version) of the 3rd party app. The config files are different for each site. For example, the file /home/myacct/tomcat5/webapps/mobiledoc/mobiledocconfig.properties contains database connection information so each instance of the mobiledoc application connects to a matching mysql database (on a different server).

Tomcat 5.5 Configuration Question
I'm trying to set up Tomcat 5.5 to run an internally developed web application. The machine on which Tomcat is installed will only ever run this one application. I would like to install the application in such a way that when a URL such as: http://localhost:8080/ is entered, the user will be running my web application. Right now the 'default' application brings me to the Tomcat page which has items on it which allow me to manage the server. I would like this application to be located somewhere other than as the root application. Also, I realize that I could rename my .war file to be ROOT.war and it would likely expand into ROOT and become the default application, but I want the application to be stored in appname.war. I've been running this application with Resin and in Resin I can configure the root application in the resin.conf configuration file. I've looked at the various Tomcat configuration files and I can't figure out how, where or if there is a way to do this. Any tips on how I might go about doing this would be greatly appreciated.

Eric, It makes sense, but before I try the symlink approach, be advised of the full scenario. Multiple doctor's offices will be connected to the same server. Each office will have its own instance of tomcat running a copy (sometimes a different version) of the 3rd party app. The config files are different for each site. Does each office have their own copy of the software running /on the same machine/? If so, i think you might be out of luck. If they're on different machines, then you can just pick the target directory that is appropriate for the configuration file. If you're all on one machine, then maybe you can create the /usr/local/tomcat5/conf directory and use separate symlinks for each individual file -- perhaps that will do the trick. I don't quite understand your deployment strategy, so I can't be sure if I know that you mean.

RE: Someone Please: Why Is Tomcat Looking In The Wrong Directory?
Okay, so I finally connected with someone at the vendor. Surprise! It turns out they do not follow the standard method for creating multiple instances of tomcat, i.e., by using $CATALINA_BASE. Instead, I was advised to copy the entire tomcat directory structure for each instance. I did this and it worked. I also had to create a new entry in init.d for the new tomcat service and edit a few other files, but at least now it is working. Talk about brute force! At least its good to know I wasn't being a complete ninny with the way I was configuring it. Nonetheless, THANKS VERY MUCH TO ALL for the many responses.

Dynamically add Filter to webapp without declaring in web.xml
Hello, is it possible to dynamically add a Filter for a web app using the tomcat ? If so, is there an example how to do this ? OR is it possible to somehow init some webapps params before the Filter is loaded ? I tried to use a Servlet and used the load-on-startup1/load-on-startup within the web.xml - however the servlet is loaded AFTER the filter is initialized (even when no web page has been requested). Is there a better approach then using a init servlet ? The problem i currently have, is that im using a 3rd party Security Filter which has no knowledge of my application and relies on some Configuration (access rights) which is initialized by my webapp. A good example for this problem would be if you have dynamic Log4j configuration i.e. not using a log4j.xml in the classpath but configuring it through the java api. The Filter is already initialized when you do the log4j initializion in the init servlet - thus making it impossible to see/track an debug/error messages from the filter at all. __ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: Someone Please: Why Is Tomcat Looking In The Wrong Directory?
As an additional comment: Based on earlier comments, it looks like the vendor's application is using the system property tomcat.home to create the file path to open. As you found out this will prevent using CATALINA_BASE or creating virtual hosts under one Tomcat. The vendor might look at using something like: getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRealPath(virtual) and then getting virtual fed in via a context-param in the web.xml file. That should return the real path to the file. It will fail when the application is being served from a .war file, but requiring the war file to be exploded should be OK. Just some random thoughts at the end of the thread. /mde/ --- Robinson, Eric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Okay, so I finally connected with someone at the vendor. Surprise! It turns out they do not follow the standard method for creating multiple instances of tomcat, i.e., by using $CATALINA_BASE.

Re: Tomcat 5.5 and IPv6 configuration
Hi and thanks for your reply.
I've never had the problem you describe. I use Linux though. On my machine
the
shutdown port binds to IPv6 representation of 127.0.0.1:
tcp6 0 0 :::127.0.0.1:8007 :::*LISTEN
7970/java
I made some more tests and I think my problem is due to a
Java/FreeBSD/IPv6 incompatibility of some sort which prevents Java to
fallback to the IPv6 representation :::127.0.0.1. When I run a
test-app (which I took from another thread regarding this topic, see
below) on a Linux machine it actually behaves as expected and binds to
the address :::127.0.0.1. However, when I run it on any of my
FreeBSD machines with an IPv6 capable JVM, it throws exactly the same
BindException as the Tomcat when trying to create an IPv6 address from a
given IPv4 representation.
import java.net.*;
public class TestServer {
public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception {
if (args.length != 2) {
System.out.println(Usage: java TestServer
host_address_ipv6 port);
System.exit(1);
}
System.out.println(Host Address=+args[0]);
System.out.println(Port=+args[1]);
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket();
ss.bind(new
InetSocketAddress(InetAddress.getByName(args[0]),
Integer.parseInt(args[1])));
System.out.println(ServerSocket Bound);
ss.accept();
}
}
I know this is not a Java/FreeBSD list, but I would be glad if somebody
knows a solution and would post it here.
Are you using APR? If so, is IPv6 support compiled in?
No, I'm not using ARP, just a plain Tomcat installation.
Regards,
Hans

Silent install of tomcat 4.1.31 on windows fails
Hi, I'm new to this list. Apologies if my question is naive or insufficiently researched. I have spent some time searching the web and these mail archives, but I haven't come across this problem. My company is upgrading our product to use Tomcat 4.1.31 (from 4.1.29). I have found that when I do a clean install of Tomcat 4.1.31 the installer fails to do a couple of things that 4.1.29 used to do: 1) There is no entry for Apache Tomcat in the Windows Control Panel Add or Remove programs list. 2) There are several files missing from the conf directory C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\conf\ In fact, the only file that does get installed there is server.xml. These five files are missing: catalina.policy jk2.properties server-noexamples.xml.config tomcat-users.xml web.xml Since we are installing tomcat as one of several 3rd party products in our own windows installer, we install in silent mode: jakarta-tomcat-4.1.31-LE-jdk14.exe /S /D=our install dir I tested by running the tomcat installer from a DOS prompt: d:\tmp\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.31-LE-jdk14.exe /S When I run with the /S option I have both problems. When I run the installer with no options, neither problem occurs. When I install tomcat 4.1.29 d:\tmp\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29-LE-jdk14.exe /S neither problem occurs. I can copy the files over myself if I have to, but I don't know how to work around the control panel add/remove programs problem. I have the Java 2 SDK 1.4.2_12 installed. I am testing/developing on Windows XP SP2. Is this a known issue? Is there an install log I should be looking at for diagnostic purposes? Any suggestions, explanations, or workarounds would be appreciated.

Does Tomcat 5.5's classloader handle classpath*
Hi, There is a mechanism in Spring to load all classpath resources that match a particular name using classpath*:myfilename. Apparently various classloaders behave differently in this respect - see http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.0.x/reference/resources.html#d0e5951 and http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=27179. Post #4 seems to suggest that Tomcat handles it fine, but it doesn't seem to be working for me in tomcat 5.5.9.

Ben, I'm on OS X 10.4.7 running with weblog software (blojsom) I have to do a kill -9 on java to stop it from using 100+ on cpu sometimes, to let users connect. I assume that you also have to restart Tomcat at this point, yes? This comes up over and over in the log: 2006-08-01 17:22:08 StandardWrapperValve[blojsom]: Servlet.service() for servlet blojsom threw exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception [snip] - Root Cause - java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space You done run outta memory. Since this question (why did I run out of memory) comes up a lot, I'll save you some time going through the gauntlet of one-off responses you are likely to get: 1. Contact the vendor or read their documentation to find out how much memory they recommend for the application (taking into account the number of users, etc.) and check to see that you have your JVM configured have that much memory. If they recommend 128MB and you have 16MB configured, then you might just be running out of memory. 2. If you are meeting the vendor's suggestions for memory usage, but you think that you have an unusual load (number of users, frequency or requests, whatever), then consider increasing your memory /somewhat/ to cover that load. Generally, you don't need to go allocating 4GB of heap space right away... if you do that, you're more likely to put the problem off than anything else. 3. There might be a memory leak. Since you are getting 100% CPU use, you might have found a problem with the software getting it into a tight and infinite loop (or, at least sufficiently many iterations that it may as well be infinite) that generates loads of objects: hence, your memory exhaustion. Make sure you have the latest patches from the vendor. 4. If you added any of your own code, check that out. If you are using a weird JDBC driver, check to see that you have the latest compatible version. In fact, check all your libraries. After that, it's just a matter of changing your memory settings. How you do that depends on your deployment, but generally you set the environment variable JAVA_OPTS and use the -X parameters to set the Java heap size. Often, it helps to set the initial and maximum heap sizes to the same thing, so that the memory manager never has to grow the heap during the life of the process -- that can save time and avoid OOMs if Java demands too much memory too fast (I really hope this is fixed in recent versions of the JVM... this used to happen and it really should not).

Tomcat Cluster

it means that server-A has the webapp /edac but server-B doesn't. and server B is receiving messages, and ignoring them doesn't mean its an error, only if you expect both servers to have the webapp. This is not the case if one server is starting up and has not deployed the app yet Filip Ralf Schneider wrote: Hi, I started some experiments with a cluster of 2 Tomcats (5.5.16).
