Subject: Farm War Deployer / Deploment Strategies



Hola~

I'm looking for an efficient way to deploy a tomcat project to 2 or more 
tomcat servers simultaneously.


Changes to are tomcat project may affect the way it communicates with a 
database, and therefore we'd like to make sure the deployment takes place 
swiftly.


What are some of the better ways to deploy a project to multiple 
servers???


With JK,  the right way is from JKStatus, stop the servers.
Change dB
Then deploy new war...
Then bring them back one by one

If its not JK, then I guess you have to stop them from the manager/html
If that dB change, is huge and needs translating/restructuring... thats the 
big down time.
dB's are always a mission, you end up wrting a lot of script, or little util 
programs to make the change go as fast as possible.


When its just a content change, we just drop the wars in and let each tomcat 
wake itself up and do the change when its ready.


Not sure if we doing it right, but have had no problems.
Have fun...

Dynamic ResourceBundle clearCache()

2008-06-13 Thread Scott Smith
We are trying to build functionality into our website so a website
administrator can update the properties file which contains the webpage
display strings without stopping the website.  He would do this through
an administrative webpage. 

 

The code (excerpted below) works fine when we step through the code when
running Tomcat (5.5, Java 6) under Eclipse.  However, if we put it in a
war file and run it in Tomcat, the clearCache() appears to have no
effect.  We think it should have caused jstl to re-read the properties
file.  We can see that the properties file is getting re-written.
However the string value displayed on the page doesn't change.  If we
restart Tomcat, then the new string value takes effect, but that
obviously doesn't work in the long run.

 

There is a comment that it clears the properties files for any
properties files that have been read in with the current ClassLoader.
But we aren't sure what ClassLoader to specify if it's not the current
one.

 

Does anyone have any idea why this might not work or an alternative
suggestion on how to do what we want to do? 

 

 

File propertiesFile = new File(myproperty.properties);

  Properties p = new Properties();

FileReader fr = new FileReader(propertiesFile);

p.load(fr);

fr.close();

p.setProperty(my.key, the string);

FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(propertiesFile);

p.store(fw, );

fw.flush();

fw.close();

ResourceBundle.clearCache();

PropertyResourceBundle rb = (PropertyResourceBundle)
ResourceBundle.getBundle(myproperty);

PropertyResourceBundle.clearCache();

Config.set(ses.getServletContext(),
Config.FMT_LOCALIZATION_CONTEXT, new LocalizationContext(rb)); 

 



Re: Tomcat 5.5 caseSensitive=false and work dir problem

2008-06-13 Thread Jesse Klaasse

I have implemented the all lowercase filter solution, which does the job
nicely. However, there is still one issue.. jsp:forwards don't go through
the filter chain, so when the forward page contains uppercase characters, a
file is created in the work dir with the uppercase character(s) in it. Then,
when a normal request via the browser is done to the same forward page,
Tomcat throws a NoClassDefFound exception because of a wrong name of the
temp file.

As an example, we have two jsp's:
- pageA.jsp (with a jsp:forward to pageB.jsp)
- pageB.jsp

Now, when we do this:
- request pageA.jsp in the browser (two temp files are created in the work
dir, pagea_jsp.class (lowercase 'a' because of the filter) and
pageB_jsp.class)
- request pageB.jsp in the browser - NoClassDefFound exception because
Tomcat is looking for pageb_jsp.class

I think Leon's suggested mapper solution would solve this problem for the
most part, but a mapper which is actually a complete file system tree seems
rather disk/cpu intensive to me. 

Can anyone think of another solution for the jsp:forward problem in this
case?

 Personally I find your solution elegant :-)
 It would be maybe even more 'elegant' if you map your lowercase url
 via some mapping to the real name of the jsp internally, like:
 
 request EcHoSesSion - Filter = echosession - Mapper = EchoSession.jsp
 Of course the mapper has to be configured (or browse the file system)
 to determine the jsps real name. Alternatively you could rename all
 your jsps to lowercase and forget about the mapper. The advantage of
 the mapper (or the internal case-sensitivity) is that you webapp
 remains working on non-windows platforms... just in case, remember:
 write once, run anywhere :-)

SSL/HTTPS forwarding under Apache + mod_jk + tomcat

2008-06-13 Thread André Warnier

Hi List.

(Indirect ref : previous thread Moving from a very old Tomcat to a new 
Tomcat.)


Ref : http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html
Item : JkExtractSSL

Do I understand this right that this parameter JkExtractSSL (default On) 
controls whether Tomcat receives of not the information, through mod_jk, 
that the original request to Apache was made via HTTPS ?


Or, in other words, that if one wanted Tomcat not to know and handle 
the current session as a normal non-secure HTTP connection, one could 
just set this parameter to Off ?


And, again in other words, if this parameter was set to Off, and Tomcat 
generated a new session and a JSESSIONID session cookie for this 
session, that the cookie would thus not be marked secure ?


 maybe separately 

The above refers generally to the following kind of scenario.  It is 
also generally speaking a question to the specialists here. My purpose 
is to make sure I understand this whole thing correctly.


Scenario :

For whatever good reason, Apache is used as the front-end HTTP/HTTPS 
server and (possibly) serving some portion of the content itself, while 
some (or all) requests are being forwarded, through mod_jk, to a 
background Tomcat for content generation.
For whatever good reason also, the connection between the client 
(browser) and Apache is a HTTPS (encrypted) connection.


The connection between the front-end Apache and the back-end Tomcat 
through mod_jk is never secure (the AJP protocol does not support 
encryption).
In this scenario, it does not matter because this connection is deemed 
secure for other reasons (e.g. both are running on the same host, and 
Tomcat is set up so that it accepts only connections through Apache).


The unencrypted content, as generated and delivered by Tomcat back to 
Apache via mod_jk, will be forwarded back to the browser by Apache over 
the HTTPS connection, thus encrypted by Apache (generally speaking; in 
reality probably this happens in an underlying SSL connection layer).


It is possible, but not mandatory, to let Tomcat know about the HTTPS 
nature of the original HTTPS nature of the browser/Apache connection. 
This might be necessary/helpful in some scenarios (such as ?)


To let Tomcat know that the original connection is HTTPS, one uses the 
JkExtractSSL On mod_jk directive. (On is the default value.)

To prevent Tomcat from knowing, one uses JkExtractSSL Off.

If JkExtractSSL On is used, then one may/must also pass additional 
HTTPS-related information from Apache to Tomcat via the 
JkHTTPSIndicator, JkCERTSIndicator, et al. directives.

This is useful/required for (?)

The general gist is that if for some reason, it is necessary to have 
Apache handle HTTPS connections anayway, and the connection between 
Apache and Tomcat is inherently secure, then there might be no reasons 
to propagate the HTTPS overhead to Tomcat, and one might as well 
handle it all at the Apache level.

Or am I missing something ?


Thanks,
André

Isn't this what sticky sessions are for? You get randomly assigned to
a server for your first request, and each subsequent request goes to
that same server (unless it goes down, in which case you have to
switch). This does not require distributable sessions.

Does that not solve your SSO requirement?


I would think so too. I don't see any speciality w.r.t. SSO.

- you give each backend a different jvmRoute in server.xml
- you give the loab balancer member workers the same names as the 
jvmRoute of the backend they point to

- you activate sticky sessions in the load balancer

That should be it.

Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread Rainer Jung

Simon Papillon wrote:

Forgive me if I'm overlooking something, but as far as I understand
it, the sticky session mechanism is driven off the JSESSIONID that is
assigned by the tomcat container when a client first makes a request
that instigates a session creation, if no JSESSIONID cookie was sent
as part of the request the node is chosen according to the
worker.loadbalancer.method (Request, Session, Traffic, Busyness i
think Request is the default) .   Once a JSESSIONID has been set by a
container  the load balancer will then attach the JVMRoute onto the
end which will then be used by the jk load balancer in future requests
to determine the node to use to service the request.  e.g. if I have
three nodes (tomcatA, tomcatB, tomcatC) I could have the following
scenario...

child.first-domain.com : JSESSIONID = D75AA77AC6FBF43F2C2DDC195DDA6D44.tomcatC
doctor.second-domain.com : JSESSIONID = 5D211C177DFB064DEF731832CF07D693.tomcatA
nurse.third-domain.co.uk : JSESSIONID = E1EC672CAAA3F2F8348C2A23991DF46B.tomcatB

Where my browser has made three seperate requests for three seperate
resources, all serviced by the same group of tomcat containers through
vhosting, behind the load balancer, in which case my SSO mechanism
won't work as future requests on
child.first-domain.com, doctor.second-domain.com and
nurse.third-domain.co.uk will behandled by tomcatC, tomcatA and
tomcatB respectively.

As the SSO mechanism is based on the assumption that all requests from
the same browser are handled by the same container, this will break
the SSO,

Let me know if I'm misunderstanding some fundermental way in which the
jk load balancer works, or if I'm not explaing myself well,
Cheers

Sorry for my first premature post. I overlooked the followup posts.

So the problem here is, that when you switch from one context to another 
there isn't yet a session on the second context, so the load balancer 
might send you to a new container.


At the moment I see no way of doing such a thing with mod_jk. It could 
be, that you can use mod_proxy_balancer in this case, because for 
mod_proxy_balancer the name of the cookie, which helps in the load 
balancing discussion, is configurable. Sou you could set a SSO-Cookie in 
the first context with a path of /.


It''s something we should think about. Actually I think about adding 
JkSubWorkerIndicator, which would work analogous to JkWorkerIndicator.


So you could set an environment variable in httpd which would contain 
the name of the balanvcer member, you want to choose.


Environment variable in httpd can be set by mod_setenvif and 
mod_rewrite, which are both able to check various request properties. 
For instance mod_rewrite can check the Cookie header, so you could 
extract the name of the chosen backend via a regexp from the value of 
your own SSO cookie. But it's not yet implemented. Check 
mod_proxy_balancer. In general it has less features than mod_jk, but in 
your case it seems there is an advantage in mod_proxy_balancer.

Be aware, that there might be other ways into your app, like the default

Tomcat will not create session cookie

2008-06-13 Thread mkweb

Hello,
I'm new to the forum. I have a strange problem with my tomcat installation.
I'm using tomcat5.5.26 and struts for my web projekt.

I configured the projekt in a context file, like this :
Context path= docBase=C:\webprojekt debug=1 reloadable=true
crossContext=true cookies=true

I set the attribute cookies to 'true' because I want to have session
cookies.

Furthermore I added the following lines to the index.jsp to display the
cookies :

out.println(hCookies : /h);
Cookie[] cookies=request.getCookies();
if(cookies==null) { 
out.println(No cookies);
} else {
Cookie MyCookie;
for(int i=0;icookies.length;i++) {
MyCookie=cookies[i];
out.println(MyCookie.getName() + =+MyCookie.getValue());
}
}


My problem is now when I open the webapp with the url http://localhost
everythink is fine. The session cookie wil be created and the output of the
script above is like : 
Cookies : JSESSIONID=05E932958950B69BE03874B8FCE26C3E 

But when I open the webapp over the internet with an URL like
www.myprojekt.com tomcat will not create an session cookie. Tomcat adds the
jsessionid to the URL's and teh output of the script above is :
Cookies : No cookies

What is the problem ? Why can't tomcat create session cookie for
www.myprojekt.com ?

Re: Run several applications on different ports, isolated from each other

2008-06-13 Thread Yves Glodt
Hello Christopher and List,

thank you very much for your detailed description!
I am currently evaluating all the possibilities to run my 2 applications side-
by-side.

Another idea I came up with is:

Use only one instance of Tomcat, but create 2 connectors, which each hold one 
host, and these hosts have different appBase-folders. Then my apps would been 
isolated, and I would connect to them via mod_proxy on their respective ports.

Does this sound good?

Regards,
Yves


p.s. This way I would not need to touch the config from the debian packages 
(which I really would like to avoid)

 Yep, you need another instance of Tomcat. Conceptually, it's very simple:

 1. Create a new directory which will hold your new instance. This

 ~   temp/  (optional, as TC should create this)
 ~   webapps/   (optional, if you have no auto-deployed webapps)
 ~   work/  (optional, as TC should create this)

 ~   The conf directory needs server.xml and web.xml. Make sure
 ~   that your Connectors in server.xml have unique port numbers
 ~   (i.e. default HTTP port is 8080, so check that, and the default
 ~   AJP port is 8009, so check that, too... these must be unique
 ~   across all TC instances).

 ~   Stick your webapps in 'webapps', obviously, unless you are
 ~   going to be declaring separate XML deployment descriptors
 ~   (ignore this if you have no idea what I'm talking about).

 2. Run CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh with the correct CATALINA_BASE
 ~   environment variable set. Note that CATALINA_HOME points to
 ~   the /actual/ TC install -- where the bin directory is -- and
 ~   CATALINA_BASE points to your instance as defined above.

 | tomcat-instance 1: port 8001 webapps-folder: /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps
 | tomcat-instance 2: port 8002 webapps-folder: /home/tomcat/webapps

 No problem:

 $ export CATALINA_BASE=/home/tomcat
 $ /var/lib/tomcat5.5/bin/startup.sh

 Just make sure that /home/tomcat is set up as indicated above.

 That's going to be a problem, because I'm sure those scripts assume only

 1. Copy /etc/init.d/tomcat.sh (or whatever) to /etc/init.d/tomcat2.sh
 ~   and modify it accordingly (like setting CATALINA_BASE)

 2. Write a different /etc/init.d/tomcat.sh script that somehow

 packaged with Tomcat. If you can't find that file, as the Debian folks
 why they removed it.

Validation

2008-06-13 Thread emerson cargnin
I saw that in the server.xml web.xml validation is disabled. And with
the comment:

Note: XML Schema validation will not work with Xerces 2.2

The thing is, I can't see any xerces library inside tomcat. I have
xerces 2.4 on my app, but I believe it doesn't matter my webapp lib.

Even in examples webapp it fails

13-Jun-2008 14:06:05 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Context [/examples] startup failed due to previous errors
java.lang.NullPointerException

I'm using java 1.5.0_06-b05, on salaris.

I used GlobalRequestProcessor and RequestProcessor for getting

Which one I have to use for getting what I want?


GlobalRequestProcessor: one per Konnektor (=ThreadPool)

It contains the sums of request counters for all threads in this 
thread pool (how many requests, errors, sum of response times in 
milliseconds etc.) Usually those are what  you want.


when you said the sums of request, each X time the processing time 
it's the accumulated of the previuos or not?


requestCount: total number of requests
maxTime: longest request processing time in milliseconds
processingTime: sum of request processing time in milliseconds 
(accumulated over all requests, which were handled by this connector)


Thanks for your answer, but if I want only the processingTime at the 
moment I monitoring, which variable I have to get? RequestProcessor? for 
each thread? is there another alternative?


What do you mean by processingTime at the moment you monitor?

Subject: mapping tomcat to ip address behind router



 Hey,

 I want to set-up tomcat to serve http requests from behind a router.
When
 there is a direct internet connection and no router, and the address
 property is added and port number is changed in server.xml as below in
 example 1, tomcat serves requests fine for http://99.153.32.456.

 When I set it up to run behind a router as show in example 2, with the
 router forwarding requests to 192.168.0.54 which is the computer
behind 
 the
 router with tomcat, it does not work for the url http://99.153.32.456.

 What
 is the correct way to set it tomcat behind a router?

 thanks in advance for your assistance

 Example 1 - no router - works

 Connector port=80 protocol=HTTP/1.1
   connectionTimeout=2
   address=99.153.32.456
   redirectPort=8443 /
!-- A Connector using the shared thread pool--
!--
Connector executor=tomcatThreadPool
   port=80 protocol=HTTP/1.1
   address=99.153.32.456
   connectionTimeout=2
   redirectPort=8443 /
--

 Example 2 - behind router - does not work

 Connector port=80 protocol=HTTP/1.1
   connectionTimeout=2
   address=192.168.0.54
   redirectPort=8443 /
!-- A Connector using the shared thread pool--

illusion, you have now probably screwed up the TC config...
Reload the the standard TC config, and just change the 8080, to 80, dont

touch other stuff for now.

Then google, I think you have one of those ADSL Nat Router things
Heres an article with someone else struggling along
http://sanzon.wordpress.com/2008/04/04/setting-up-web-server-behind-rout
er-wrt54g2/

Whats probably screwing you up is even though you have it forwarding,
the 
IP's internally are being dynamicly assigned, you have to give the
server a 
fixed IP, typically this is not the ISP IP, its the machine IP, and then
you 
need to check the machine and make sure its using your router as the 
gateway.

Its not really a TC thing, best thing is to look at the router name and 
google for it and web server.
These little box's now a days have some amazing functionality, so you
need 
to find the manual for the thing.

You need to check the Dynamip DNS is not on, DHCP is not assinged to the

server, the DNS discovery is set or on auto, the network masks are right

etc.
If your SP supplied the router, they should know how to set the thing
up, 
dont mention tomcat, its got nothing to do with it, just tell em its a
web 
server on a machine if that works, TC will work.

And then learn to do things like ping a machine etc.

Have fun

 IP numbers usually are 0-255 and the end number in your IP
 address is 456?

Sometimes we miss the obvious.  Not just usually 0-255, they must be 0-255, 
since it's an octet.

 I'm having problems with deploying an application on Tomcat 5.5.28.

Platform? JDK version?

 I cannot see it on the list of applications

What's in the logs?  What does the Context element look like (if you have

 Hello Christopher and List,
 
 thank you very much for your detailed description!
 I am currently evaluating all the possibilities to run my 2 applications side-

 Another idea I came up with is:
 
 Use only one instance of Tomcat, but create 2 connectors, which each hold one 
 host, and these hosts have different appBase-folders. Then my apps would been 
 isolated, and I would connect to them via mod_proxy on their respective ports.

Hi Yves,

I tried both methods, and preferred running two tomcat instances. It
does require modifications to the packaging (I did this under RedHat),
but gives the most flexibility. The decider for me was the ability to
run each tomcat instance as a different user id, and to be able to
completely stop and restart each tomcat without affecting the other.

You are right: if he sets e.g. an SSO cookie with the name of the 
correct node in it and uses mod_rewrite to detect, which is the right 
node (named NODEX), he can redirect to


ORIGINALURL;jsessionid=.NODEX

The LB will then send the new request to NODEX, which generates a new 
session with a correct session id and jvmRoute suffix.

Tomcat producing (near) duplicate Catalina logs

2008-06-13 Thread Lucas Campbell
Recently we've discovered that our Tomcat server is producing near 
duplicate Catalina logs. I say near because sometimes the logs are 
exactly the same, then other times one version will have more 
information than the other (not constantly one having more than the 
other). We can't seem to figure out where they are being produced from 
or why they would be different.


Here's a smattering of the logs so you can see what I'm talking about.

Re: Tomcat producing (near) duplicate Catalina logs

2008-06-13 Thread André Warnier

I approve of, applaud, second this request, and together beg for help.

I asked the same kind of thing a few days ago, but was told to install 
an official Tomcat distribution, with all files in the official 
places, and not one of these desperately mangled Linux distributions, 
because the files are all in the wrong places and it makes it difficult 
to provide support.  It all made a lot of sense.


Then one of the Linux mangling distribution authors intervened to 
explain why they were mangling and re-arranging things, and it all made 
a lot of sense too.


But in the meantime I still have the same problem below and no help to 
figure out where it comes from.

I've searched and searched, but I seems as though no one has run into 
the problem that I'm having right now. If anyone has any idea why this 
would be occurring, or where it is being produced from it would be 
greatly appreciated.

 Then one of the Linux mangling distribution authors intervened
 to explain why they were mangling and re-arranging things, and
 it all made a lot of sense too.

Then get them to support the mess they create.

Seriously, throw away the 3rd-party junk and install a real Tomcat.  The

Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread Simon Papillon
Hi Chris,
So just to follow up on your post,

 So, really, it's not that you want to load balance based upon IP
 address... you really want to predictably choose a member of the server
 farm based upon some knowledge of the client such that, regardless of
 the domain name used, the initial request (and therefore all the rest)
 go to a particular member.

That's exactly it. I want all requests from the same client to be
channeled through to the same tomcat instance, regardless of the
domain.  Sorry for the confusion.


 You may be able to do this, but you'll certainly have to hack mod_jk in
 order to do it.

 I believe there is a method in mod_jk that chooses the jvmRoute for the
 first (JSESSIONID-less) request. If you were to modify that algorithm,
 you could achieve your goal, here. I'm a little worried that you might
 implement a fragile algorithm, though, and end up with an unbalanced
 load balancer.

I'll check this out, I think you could be right, it will probably lead
to a lumpy load profile accross the tomcat servers, but I might give
it a go.

 Do you have options other than using SSO?

 Come to think of it... how does SSO work when you switch domains with
 even a single server -- that is, without load balancing in the mix? I
 would expect that, since you are switching domains, your browser would
 not send a JSESSIONID cookie to the server, and thus you would not be
 recognized as having an existing session.

 ??!
I set a tracking gif on each page pointing to a single domain e.g.
tracker.first-domain.com this is served up by the same container
as an query string argument I pass in the jsessionid for whichever
domain the request is made to.  For example if the domains
have sessions as follows

http://child.first-domain.com : JSESSIONID=1234
http://doctor.second-domain.com : JSESSIONID=ABCD
http://nurse.third-domain.co.uk : JSESSIONID=wxyz

a.jsp on child.first-domain.com
html
.
a href=http://tracker.first-domain.com/track.gif?sid=1234
.
/html

a.jsp on doctor.second-domain.com
html
.
a href=http://tracker.first-domain.com/track.gif?sid=ABCD
.
/html
etc for nurse.third-domain.co.uk

the servlet handling the tracker.first-domain.com/track.gif registers
the different domain specific session ids with its own session id and
thus ties them altogether, thus when one of the session ids logs on,
its associated with a tracker session id which can then propogate the
information to the other user sessions.
Its a bit rough and ready, but seems to work, I think the tracker gif
thing ist the most common way that the web analytics tools work.
If you want more info on this I'll happily send you the code its a
couple of java files about 400 lines in total.

Thanks for your reply,
All the best
Simon

Hiding JSP Pages

2008-06-13 Thread W Strater
I am trying to hide the JSP so they can only be accessed via a forward. I have 
been able to put them in a subdirectory of WEB-INF using other containers but 
have not been able to do that with Tomcat 5.5.

We are not using Struts but it is the same approach where our business
logic is servlet/action based and we only use JSP for presentation.

A common practice would be to put the JSP page in the root directory of the WAR 
like following:

/HelloWorld.jsp
/WEB-INF/web.xml
/WEB-INF/classes/HelloWorld.class

This would allow the user to access the JSP page through the servlet with 
http://localhost:8080/app/HelloWorld or directly with 
http://localhost:8080/app/HelloWorld.jsp.

I want to use to only be able to access the JSP page through the servlet and 
the directory of the WAR would like the following:

/WEB-INF/web.xml
/WEB-INF/classes/HelloWorld.class
/WEB-INF/jsp/HelloWorld.jsp

The HelloWorld servlet would use the JSP for presentation by forwarding to it 
using code like the fllowing:

RequestDispatcher dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher(
/WEB-INF/jsp/HelloWorld.jsp);

I get the following errors:

Any suggestions on how I can hide my JSP pages?

Wes.

Multiple Java processes when using Tomcat

2008-06-13 Thread John Gardner
We've installed quite a few instances of Tomcat on clients sites, both 
on Windows and Linux, but we've never had a problem quite like this.


The system has been installed since the end of 2006, on Red Hat EL 3, 
Tomcat 5.5.20 and JVM 1.5_09, but they have only just noticed this 
problem (so it may have been there from the start or just started happening)

Normally, I only expect to see 2,3,4 or 5 java processes associated with 
the Tomcat user, not all of the above!


Has anyone seen this before?  It surely doesn't look normal... Does it 
point to the JVM, Tomcat or something else?  Is it something to do with 
the fact that's running on a SMP system?  I'm really stuck, which is why 
I'm wondering if anyone on the list can point me in the right direction 
for a solution.


Thanks in advance.

They do go through the filter chain if you configure them properly.

Section 6.2.5 of the servlet specification states:


SRV.6.2.5 Filters and the RequestDispatcher

New since version 2.4 of the Java Servlet specification is the ability
to configure filters to be invoked under request dispatcher forward()
and include() calls. By using the new dispatcher element in the
deployment descriptor, the developer can indicate for a filter-mapping
whether he would like the filter to be applied to requests when:

1. The request comes directly from the client. This is indicated by a
dispatcher element with value REQUEST, or by the absence of any
dispatcher elements.

2. The request is being processed under a request dispatcher
representing the Web component matching the url-pattern or
servlet-name using a forward() call. This is indicated by a
dispatcher element with value FORWARD.

3. The request is being processed under a request dispatcher
representing the Web component matching the url-pattern or
servlet-name using an include() call. This is indicated by a
dispatcher element with value INCLUDE.

4. The request is being processed with the error page mechanism
specified in “Error Handling” on page 69 to an error resource matching
the url-pattern. This is indicated by a dispatcher element with the
value ERROR.

5. Or any combination of 1, 2, 3, or 4 above.


Note that dispatcher elements are children of the filter-mapping
element, and you can specify multiple dispatchers like this:

filter-mapping
~  filter-namemyFilter/filter-name
~  url-pattern/*/url-pattern
~  dispatcherREQUEST/dispatcher
~  dispatcherINCLUDE/dispatcher
~  dispatcherFORWARD/dispatcher
/filter-mapping

You can certainly use this, but it depends on your notion of isolation

applications even if they are in different Hosts in Tomcat.

If that's okay, then you can certainly run them in the same Tomcat instance.

Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread Johnny Kewl

From: Simon Papillon [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To: users@tomcat.apache.org

Subject: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id



Hello,

I'm using jk 1.2.25 with tomcat 5.5.25 and apache 2.0 on one debian
box - 2.4.27-2-386 i686 GNU/Linux

I've set up 3 tomcat instances  that receive requests from  the jk
load balancer worker

I've implemented in the web application, a simple cross domain single
sign on (SSO)  mechanism.   This mechanism ties the different session ids 
in

any single container together, regardless if they've originated from
different domains, for example:
sub1.mydomain.com
sub2.yourdomain.com
sub3.hisdomain.co.uk


No... thats where you going wrong, SSO means a million different things on 
the web, and some systems do mean that, but on tomcat it means SAME domain, 
different web apps in same tomcat.


When the domain changes, the browser forget the cookie... thats it.

The way the load balancer works is that is round robins on the domain... and 
it maps on context not domain.

ie if you call Domain1/Webapp1

Then it will round robin Domain1/Webapp1 (machine1) Domain1/Webapp1 
(machine2) Domain1/Webapp1 (machine3)
And its the same for other domains ie it round robins between the 
virtual hosts you have set.
If you set STICKY SESSIONS... it still round robins... UNLESS the servlet 
sets a cookie.
As soon as a session comes into play, the client (on that domain) continues 
to hit the same machine... thus that machine remembers the client state.


TC's security uses full domain temp cookies... and the problem is that the 
security comes before everything else, its no intercept-able.
ie that security will prompt before anything else gets at it... or you can 
get at it.


If users never cross a domain... ie a nurse.hospital.com is always in her 
domain the load balancing will work and so will TC's SSO, if they move 
between webapps, in that domain.
But as soon as nurse.hospital.com links to doctor.hospital.com the 
browser will not send the cookie and TC will challenge the browser.
And then it will round robin in that domain... unless a cookie is set 
then it sticks.


The way some of these other SSO (cross domain systems work)... is they set 
partial domains... ie  .HOSPITAL.COM (with a dot in front)
Then that cookie returns across all those domains and they put a 
JSPECIAL_SESSION_ID in that.
Simple... except that you will not get past TC's default security to be able 
to check it thus the cross domain security systems effectively rebuild 
all the security.


If TC allowed... or a class could be overriden to set a partial cookie 
it would be cross domain SSO... I'm not sure it can be done easily.
And the problem is that if you mess with valves... the custom code may not 
work in later TC's


There are systems out there that do it... but I forget the products... it 
does mean not using TC's default security.


So... If the doctor want to check out the nurse... he has to log on... ;)

An interesting thought... if Apache could map...

All_Staff.hospital.com/doctor/webapp/ - could be remapped to - 
doctor.hospital.com/webapp/
All_Staff.hospital.com/nurse/webapp/ - could be remapped to - 
nurse.hospital.com/webapp/


I wonder if browser and virtual hosting would be happy... ha ha
Of course if nurse was a the end of your domain... all your problems 
(crossing domains) would go away.


Nice brain bender... ;)

Note that TC actually does it right, because there are all sorts of security 
considerations when cookies start going cross domain.
The other problem is that dotSubDomains... dont work on localhost, so the TC 
guys probably dont do it because they want to stay sane.


Good luck... the problem is only thereif you cross domains... otherwise it 
works I think.

Subject: Tomcat producing (near) duplicate Catalina logs

Recently we've discovered that our Tomcat server is producing near
duplicate Catalina logs. I say near because sometimes the logs are
exactly the same, then other times one version will have more
information than the other (not constantly one having more than the
other). We can't seem to figure out where they are being produced from
or why they would be different.

Here's a smattering of the logs so you can see what I'm talking about.  
The logs use both . and _, they're produced at the exact same times.

All the information I was able to find seemed to be pointing at the
log4j.properties file as far as logging settings. But none of the
information in it seemed to be of any use, I'll post it here because it
may be of more use to someone who knows what really might be going on.

I've searched and searched, but I seems as though no one has run into
the problem that I'm having right now. If anyone has any idea why this
would be occurring, or where it is being produced from it would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Lucas

Hello Christopher and List,

thank you very much for your detailed description!
I am currently evaluating all the possibilities to run my 2 applications side-

Another idea I came up with is:

Use only one instance of Tomcat, but create 2 connectors, which each hold one 
host, and these hosts have different appBase-folders. Then my apps would been 
isolated, and I would connect to them via mod_proxy on their respective ports.



Hi Yves,

I tried both methods, and preferred running two tomcat instances. It
does require modifications to the packaging (I did this under RedHat),
but gives the most flexibility. The decider for me was the ability to
run each tomcat instance as a different user id, and to be able to
completely stop and restart each tomcat without affecting the other.
  
That last reason is why I use separate tomcat instances:  my different 
apps have very different usage profiles; one app's busy time is the 
other one's dead time, so I can do maintenance on each of them without 
affecting the other one.

Wow, does that really work? That's a tremendously cool hack, if so!

TC should not be respecting the JSESSIONID passed-in if it is invalid.
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you, though. Do you have a registry of
session ids cross-linked in the session of each web application?

Tomcat to syslog

2008-06-13 Thread Chris Pratt
Hi all,

Have a vanilla tomcat  coherence instance logging to local files--
CATALINA_BASE/logs and CACHE/logs.  I am implementing a central
logserver and want to get these into the syslog.

I tried:  tail -f [file log] | logger -p local#.info

but this resulted in each wrapped line occurring as a new syslog
message.

The tomcat and coherence events are rather long and can include stack
traces.  I want to keep the entirety of their events as a single message
event in syslog.

Has anyone got tomcat logging to syslog correctly?  Thanks in advance.

thanks Chris - the reason we are tied to j2sdk 1.4.2_12 is because it is

experienced major minor version issues when we try to deploy our customized

in short

package s/w is done using j2sdk1.4.2_12

If your own knowledge about secure / non secure differs from the one

One of them coming from Tomcat-Logging, the other might be a redirected

appenders are configured in a way, that log messages go to STDOUT and a 
log file in parallel. In Tomcat without a service wrapper STDOUT gets 
redirected to catalina.out (no rotation by default), with a service

Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread André Warnier

Hi.

Sorry to butt in, but just by curiosity from a Tomcat rookie, do you 
absolutely need to keep handling the same client IP with the same Tomcat 
instance ?


(Do not feel obliged to comment at length, if it would not work, just 
tell me so and I'll get back to my Apache/Tomcat studies.)


My possibly naïve and wrong understanding is as follows :

You have a front-end Apache and access the Tomcats via mod_jk and a load 
balancer.


You could do the authentication and SSO handling at the Apache level, 
and set some partial domain cookie at that level, with some 
cross-domain identifier (as long as the domains have a common part of 
course).
The browser will later send this cookie back with each request addressed 
to any of the servers that match the partial domain.


The user authentication could be passed to Tomcat via mod_jk (I think it 
will do that if you ask nicely).
Separately, the cross-domain cookie will be passed automatically to 
Tomcat in the HTTP request headers, which mod_jk also forwards.


Then at the Tomcat level (whichever instance), you could retrieve this 
cookie and the identifier it contains, and use that as a key to some 
user session storage (not in the Tomcat session object, but e.g. in 
a database common to all Tomcat instances) ?


The separate Tomcats will still each create their separate sessions (and 
JSESSIONID cookies) for this user session, but does it matter ?

And they would be nicely balanced.

No ?

I'm sure it did. I think the difference, as Bill Barker (IIRC) pointed

Cookie objects while earlier versions did not.

You mentioned that your URL contains ;jsessionid=[the session id], so I

dataBytes, startPos, and endPos appear to have no relationship to each

Didn't try this. What does your tests say?

Yep, I thought you might be interested.
But had this come up sooner, it would have deprived us of a lot of 
interesting information.


By the way, the reason why I can't try it right now is that I just don't 
have the application to try it with.  So whatever I mentioned before 
(but which apprently so far seems ok) was purely by attempting to 
understand the documentation. Beware.


And by the way, I do not know who's in charge of that, but should this 
all turn out to be true, I think that a small addendum in the 
JkExtractSSL item of the page 
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html;

might avoid a lot of soul-searching in the future.
Like the phrase :
If you set this parameter to Off, then Tomcat will not know that the 
browser-Apache connection took place under HTTPS, and will treat it as a 
simple HTTP connection.  See ... for more details.

RE: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread Caldarale, Charles R
 From: André Warnier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Subject: Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather
 than session id

 Then at the Tomcat level (whichever instance), you could retrieve this
 cookie and the identifier it contains, and use that as a key to some
 user session storage (not in the Tomcat session object,
 but e.g. in a database common to all Tomcat instances) ?

Yes, that kind of thing can be done, but it adds a good bit of complexity and 
overhead to what is normally just updating a local object.

Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread Simon Papillon
Hi André,

 You could do the authentication and SSO handling at the Apache level, and
 set some partial domain cookie at that level, with some cross-domain
 identifier (as long as the domains have a common part of course).
 The browser will later send this cookie back with each request addressed to
 any of the servers that match the partial domain.

Your understanding of it, as far as my understanding is concerned, is
spot on, but like you say in your post ...
as long as the domains have a common part of course
Unfortunately in my case that doesn't hold true, its an international
site, and we've got the same domain names for different  tlds e.g.:
mydomain.com
mydomain.com.ar

So right at the top level (com vs / .com.ar), I'm a bit hamstrung
other than that you're completely correct.  I read a few other posts
about trying to ensure that the JSESSIONID cookie sent by TC applies
to the domain name and not the subdomain through TC (rather than doing
it through apache) - this one might be of interest to you:

http://www.nabble.com/Share-session-cookie-across-subdomains-td16787390.html

but regardless in my case this doesn't help me because I'm essentially
using two distinct domains.

Cheers for the comment though
Simon

Re: jk load balancing based upon ip address rather than session id

2008-06-13 Thread Simon Papillon
Hi Chris,

 Wow, does that really work? That's a tremendously cool hack, if so!

It seems to, although it's not yet been tested in anger and there is
scope for dependancy issues if you navigate from one domain directly
to the another expecting a continous session experience.
What I mean is that you need to have one request for a resource on
each domain to ensure that that session id is tied to the tracking id.
 Although I can think of several simple ways to overcome this,
although in my case I don't need to due to the structure business
domain / use cases that the web app models.

 TC should not be respecting the JSESSIONID passed-in if it is invalid.
 Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you, though. Do you have a registry of
 session ids cross-linked in the session of each web application?

If I understand you correctly, yes.  I use the session ids as a
convenient session unique ids in my own registry of user login
sessions and a tracking id which happens to be a JSESSIONID.

Cheers
Simon

Unfortunately in my case that doesn't hold true, its an international
site, and we've got the same domain names for different  tlds e.g.:
mydomain.com
mydomain.com.ar

I am not really a specialist of Tomcat, so I'll stick to try at the 
Apache level for now.  Maybe it will provide an idea of how to do it at 
the Tomcat level anyway.


I imagine that there is a single Apache host, with 3 virtual servers
www.mycompany.com
www.mycompany.co.uk
www.mycompany.ar
and the problem is that a browser will not send a cookie to a server 
whose domain name does not at least partially match.  We can also not 
just set always 3 cookies, because the browser would probably reject a 
cookie that the host www.mycompany.com would want to set for the 
domain mycompany.co.uk.


On the other hand, there must be a way by which you can tell that it is 
the same user that just switched from www.mycompany.com to 
www.mycompany.co.uk.  You were talking previously of some scheme based 
on IP address.  That seems a bit dangerous to me, because all requests 
from behind a router doing NAT will appear to be from the same IP 
address (but not the same port).


Let's imagine thus that when you get a request, you obtain the IP 
address and port it is made from, and use this combination as a key.
Your 3 servers use a common database of user sessions, where each 
session is identified by such a key.
Whenever a server gets a request, it checks the database, and if it 
finds a matching key, retrieves the info stored under that key, and sets 
a cookie (with its own domain) which it sends back to the browser.
Now the browser, for this new server, will re-send the cookie, and it 
happens to contain the same information that was set previously by the 
first server (the one who did the initial authentication and created the 
initial database entry).


Are we getting somewhere ?

No, we are not. Because when the browser switches from one server to the 
other, it might also start another TCP session, to which the router 
would give another origin port.


But wait, it might still work, because the 3 virtual servers share in 
fact the same IP address, and the router would not know that this is a 
new session, because it works on the base of IP addresses, and does not 
look at the Host: HTTP headers.


I have no idea how fragile this is, but maybe it gives you some 
additional ideas ?
(It probably is quite fragile, because it depends on the browser and 
server maintaining the same TCP session throughout.)


But now wait again.
Do you know about OpenID ? That may be what you are looking for, and 
avoid all the stuff above.
In your case, you would run your own OpenID server, and it would 
authenticate users no matter on which server they start, and keep this 
authentication available for the other (registered) servers.

Re: Tomcat producing (near) duplicate Catalina logs

Guys,

I hate to admit it, but it very much looks like I will have to eat my 
words and be humble and deferential in the future to the real Tomcat 
school of thought.


In just found this in the /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 script of my Debian 
Linux system :


su -p -s /bin/sh $TOMCAT5_USER \
-c $ROTATELOGS 
\$CATALINA_BASE/logs/catalina_%F.log\ 86400 \
 $CATALINA_BASE/logs/catalina.out 
su -p -s /bin/sh $TOMCAT5_USER \
-c \$DAEMON\ start $STARTUP_OPTS \
 $CATALINA_BASE/logs/catalina.out 21


Might that maybe be the reason for finding 
similar-but-not-quite-the-same logfiles for Tomcat ?

- one named catalina.2008-06-12.log
- one named catalina_2008-06-12.log

The above would explain why we find catalina_2008-06-12.log like files 
in the /var/log/tomcatxx directory.  It seems to me (but I'm not quite 
sure before I check the rotatelogs doc)
- that it tells rotatelogs to take catalina.out on a daily base and 
archive it to e.g. catalina_-mm-dd.log

- and then starts Tomcat, re-directing STDOUT and STDERR to catalina.out

On the other hand, Tomcat itself creates another daily logfile, in the 
form of catalina.-mm-dd.log.



Now, as a separate follow-up question, to the real Tomcat gurus (to 
which I humbly tip my hat and genuflect in shame) :


Is it possible to change this so that Tomcat5.5 would produce a single 
logfile e.g. per month (catalina.-mm.log), instead of one per day ?

And if yes, where ?
And, by the same token, for the files host-manager.-mm-dd.log and 
manager.-mm-dd-log and localhost.-mm-dd.log, which are 
created everyday and often remain quite small ?

Or is there a better way to manage this proliferation of logfiles ?
(and please, if possible, do not tell me that I have to read and 
understand the log4j documentation for this, as I am a mere Tomcat user.)


And, as a second question : do we really need the STDOUT/STDERR of 
Tomcat when it is running as a daemon ? Can I just replace some of the 
above to redirect Tomcat's STDOUT/STDERR  /dev/null ?

Or would we then lose some essential information ?

Thank you in advance,
André

(And I am for now not even speaking to the wicked wicked Debian Linux 
Tomcat packagers anymore)

You do have a context, just not an explicit one.  Create a Context element

put the Valve declaration in Tomcat's conf/context.xml, since that's shared

if you use a more recent JDK, then the OutOfMemoryError should have an

so if you share the message with us, we can maybe help you,

Nowadays I'm in working with a e-learning application, so we customize the

same version of our application to our clients. The fact is that the
increasing number of clients requests for the product made the number of
contexts in our tomcat raise to a limit, at this moment we have around 38
contexts (6.000 files each).
While we were using 4...5 contexts everything was fine, but now all that we
go is a bunch of OutofMemory errors even with a single .class deployment.
We use IIS as the front end + ISAPI FILTER + Tomcat. In a first moment we
tought that a version upgrade would give us a solution, and afted doing that
unhapply the same occurs again and again
we gave to tomcat -Xms 512m -Xmx1024m of memory, but we have a OutofMemory
even before reaching that limit.  
We setted the configuration for the JK connector for 450 connections and

even before that the same occurs!! Now we are thinking about clustering
tomcat, but we fear that even a cluster won't give us a solution.
Has anyone here experienced a similar problem before? We already thinking in
moving to SunAppServer...

can someone here help me with this ?

thanks in advance!!!

it would probably be easier to write a custom logger for the tomcat

Not with Tomcat out of the box.

Take a look at http://securityfilter.sourceforge.net/
If it can't do it out of the box (I haven't checked) then it is probably

| logfile e.g. per month (catalina.-mm.log), instead of one per day ?

IIRC, Tomcat does not do any log rolling of any kind on its own. Tomcat
uses commons-logging for just about everything, and commons-logging can
be configured to work with a particular logging system (juli, log4j,
etc.). Those other logging systems typically have rolling capabilities
and are not covered by Tomcat's documentation (because that
configuration is covered by the documentation of whatever logging
package you are using).

For instance, log4j can be configured to roll once per month by
specifying this in the configuration:

log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.A1.file = @app-log-dir@/log4j.log
# Roll-over the log once a day
log4j.appender.A1.DatePattern='.'-MM

Contrary to its class name, DailyRollingFileAppender rolls whenever it
makes sense given the DatePattern that you set it up to use. See the
log4j javadoc for this class for detailed information on configuring
this appender (which is what log4j calls classes that actually write to
log files).

If you allow your logging package to roll your log files for you, you
don't have to run cron jobs like Debian is apparently configured to do.
Also, all the configuration goes with the application (or the server),
instead of spread around the filesystem in the Debian case.

| Or is there a better way to manage this proliferation of logfiles ?

Heh. Sorry. If you want to use log4j, you're gonna have to read the
log4j documentation. Unless, of course, you're okay with everything
going to catalina.out and having shell script roll your logfiles in
unpredictable ways.

I'm disappointed in your unwillingness to read documentation for
libraries that you use. You wouldn't call General Electric to ask them
how to cool a steak just because you keep it cold in a GE freezer. By
the same token, don't expect anyone in the Tomcat community to give you
a primer on how to configure log4j when the documentation is just
begging to be read over at logging.apache.org. :(

The 2004 code is also still just as good as it was in 2004. Not much has
changed in the servlet spec. ;)

My suggestion would be to deploy the application multiple times, and use
a RemoteAddressValve for those IP addresses which do not require
authentication (and, of course, remove the appropriate configuration
from web.xml for those copies of the application).

disable directory indexing in tomcat?

2008-06-13 Thread Dave Girardin
 Group,

I'm a Unix admin working on a Solaris 8 server running Tomcat 6.0.16. No
other apps run on the server, for example, there is no Apache httpd running.
I have been tasked with disabling directory indexing based on a security
scan that provided this infomation:


Vulnerability Identified: Directory Indexing on Web Server

Severity: Low

Description: Verizon Business identified that a web server allows its
directory contents to be displayed, including any documents that were not
intended to be hyperlinked from other pages.

 Impact: Attackers could discover potentially sensitive documents that were
not intended to be found. These documents may assist attackers in crafting
future attacks against the web server or any applications hosted on it.

Recommendation: Verizon Business recommends disabling directory indexing by
modifying the web servers configuration. For the IBM HTTP server and Apache,
directory indexing can be disabled by removing the following line for the
directory configuration: Options Indexes In Microsoft IIS, directory
indexing can be disabled by deselecting the Directory Browsing option for
the affected directory.

Does this request make sense? I ask because I can't find any information on
directory indexing for Tomcat, although disabling it in Apache is easy
enough.

Thanks for any guidance!

The request makes sense if directory listings are enabled, but they are 
disabled by default.


You need to look for the default servlet configuration (should be in 
conf/web.xml but I would check every web.xml to be sure). There should be 
something like:

servlet
servlet-namedefault/servlet-name

servlet-classorg.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet/servlet-class
init-param
param-namedebug/param-name
param-value0/param-value
/init-param
init-param
param-namelistings/param-name
param-valuefalse/param-value
/init-param
load-on-startup1/load-on-startup
/servlet

The listings = false bit is what diables diretory listings.

Re: allow access without auth to app from several ip ranges , but leave auth from any other hosts

2008-06-13 Thread André Warnier

If it may help :
I have implemented a mechanism as described below, in Apache using 
mod_perl.  I don't know how to do it under Tomcat, or if it is even 
possible without rewriting some basic Tomcat code, but maybe the 
following gives someone an idea.


(Of course, if you are running Tomcat with an Apache front-end and 
mod_jk, you could do it in Apache, and pass the user-id to Tomcat. 
That's in fact what I am doing.).


In Apache/mod_perl, it relies on the fact that there are three 
consecutive phases in request processing, with possible mod_perl hooks, 
and they run in this order :


- an access control phase
This phase is supposed to grant or deny access based on some request 
characteristic other than the user-id (e.g. the time of day, or the IP 
range the request is coming from).
In standard Apache config, this is the equivalent of an Allow from 
..(IP range).. directive.  In Tomcat, it would probably be an 
Access-control Valve. There is an example somewhere in the Tomcat 
on-line documentation.


- an authentication phase
where the request is authenticated (gets a user-id if it doesn't have 
one yet)


- an authorisation phase
where the request is allowed or not to proceed, depending on whether or 
not it has a user-id, and this user-id is supposed to be able to access 
this resource.


Basically, I hijack the access-control phase, to compare the origin IP 
of the request with a table containing IP addresses and corresponding 
group user-id's.  If the origin IP matches one of the table entries, 
it gets the associated user-id.  Otherwise it does not get a user-id.

Anyway, the request is allowed to proceed.

In the authentication phase, it is checked whether the request is 
already authenticated.  If yes (for example it got a user-id during the 
access-control phase), it is allowed to proceed.  If not, it gets a 
login page.


And finally in the authorisation phase, the request is rejected if it 
does not have a user-id.


Now the questions are, in Tomcat,
1) if an Access-control Valve runs before an application (webapp) is 
invoked. I believe it should, since it is (can be) defined at a higher 
level than a webapp.
2) if one could, within such a Valve, attribute a user-id to the 
session.  That I really don't know, because I have never actually seen a 
method allowing to /set/ a user-id. (But I was probably looking in the 
wrong places).

3) how one could write a custom Valve, and how difficult that would be.
Considering that Tomcat is open-source, one could always take the 
standard IP-based Valve and modify it for the purpose.


Alternatively, maybe it is possible to do this IP-based authentication 
in a servlet filter wrapped around the webapp.  But I have a feeling 
that under Tomcat the authentication/authorization phase runs before 
even a servlet filter runs, and in that case it might not work.


I am interested also to learn if the above kind of thing is possible, 
and if that would be a good way of doing this under Tomcat.

I like the above analogy, but it begs for another one :

I don't own a GE fridge, but I (occasionally) drive a BMW car.  It is 
quite sophisticated, and most of the driver controls (lights, window 
wipers, radio, etc..) are made by Bosch or some other car-equipment 
supplier.
Yet, when I want to know how to turn on the window-wipers, BMW doesn't 
tell me to go read and understand the Bosch technical documentation for 
ditto.  Instead they provide a nice BMW User's Guide who tells me 
exactly which button to press, even though they don't make the 
window-wipers themselves.


Granted, the BMW costs quite a bit more than a Tomcat instance (at least 
as far as the up-front cost is concerned; maintenance is a more 
contentious issue).
But then, both need users in order to survive, and not all users are 
engineers.  So BMW bites the bullet and makes a nice and readable User's 
Guide, which helps in making their cars popular to the masses.


What I am saying, is that I understand what you're saying, and I agree 
that one can't do everything, and that people who develop Tomcat and 
log4j, and make it available for free, deserve credit, a lot of it.
But for a mere user who would just like to use Tomcat, the documentation 
of log4j (and commons-logging) is obscure to say the least, and an 
absolute overkill when it comes to find out how to merely change the 
name of a logfile.


Would'nt you think so ?

Re: URL is null and HTTP 404 error when using FROM authentication

2008-06-13 Thread exkor
Ok i decided to dump this hell and start fresh.
So here I am with stock configurations, it is Tomcat 6.0 + MySQL 5.0.

I login to manager app using MemoryRealm and everything is fine.
I change the global settings in server.xml to use mysql driver and
boom can't login to manager anymore So i guess the problem is
somewhere between tomcat and mysql.

MySQL logs indicate the the connector has connected to the database
and quering the right table + fields:
080613 19:40:29  96 Connect [EMAIL PROTECTED] on
 96 Query   select @@version_comment limit 1
080613 19:40:37  96 Quit
 97 Connect [EMAIL PROTECTED] on hamula
080613 19:40:53  97 Query   select uid, password, role from users
080613 19:41:05  94 Query   SELECT password FROM users WHERE
uid = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
 94 Query   commit
080613 19:41:07  94 Query   SELECT password FROM users WHERE
uid = 'test'
 94 Query   commit
080613 19:43:17  94 Query   SELECT password FROM users WHERE
uid = 'test'
 94 Query   commit
080613 19:44:30  94 Query   SELECT password FROM users WHERE
uid = 'test'
 94 Query   commit
080613 19:44:34  94 Query   SELECT password FROM users WHERE
uid = 'test'
 94 Query   commit
080613 19:46:12  94 Query   SELECT password FROM users WHERE
uid = 'test'
 94 Query   commit

So, clearly seen the connector established a session under root and
the history of all it's queries is from there on.

My server.xml is stock except for the Real part, so here is what I have:

  Realm className=org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm debug=99
driverName=org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver

connectionURL=jdbc:mysql://localhost/hamula?user=rootamp;password=skywalker
digest=MD5
userTable=users
userNameCol=uid
userCredCol=password
userRoleTable=users
roleNameCol=role/

Which is located inside of the Engine tag.
My databe looks as follows:
mysql select uid, password, role from users;
++-+---+
| uid | password
 | role |
++-+---+
| [EMAIL PROTECTED] | test
 | admin  |
| test   | 033bd94b1168d7e4f0d644c3c95e35bf | manager  |
++--+---+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)



What's wrong here??
How can I get more details on why and what part of the authentication
is failing??

André,

By

the same token, don't expect anyone in the Tomcat community to give you
a primer on how to configure log4j when the documentation is just
begging to be read over at logging.apache.org. :(

I took you at your word, and just made another try at 
http://logging.apache.org.

I'm not saying it's your fault, but you've got to be kidding.
No wonder it's begging to be read.  I bet it isn't getting rich at it 
either.
Remember, I'm a Tomcat user, just looking for how to get a monthly 
logfile instead of daily ones.


One of the Tomcat gurus tells me that Tomcat gurus don't do logging, and 
that I should look at the commons-logging documentation at 
http://logging.apache.org., so I do.


There is no mention of anything else (juli ?) than log4j and derivatives 
on the Welcome page.
So I started with the log4j menu item, basically because it seems to be 
the only one mentioned there with relevance to Tomcat.

Logically (I thought), I started with the 2.0 version.  Wrong choice.
I downgraded my choice to 1.3.  Wrong choice also apparently.
1.2 is the thing, I guess.
Nice starting page.
Then I chose Documentation...Introduction in the menu at the left.
Nice general introduction.
Scrolling down and reading however, it gets into material that I believe 
might be appropriate to a Java programmer wanting to know how to insert 
logging statements in his code, but not exactly useful for someone 
looking for where log4j would hold the configuration smippets that tell 
one if it is going to create a monthly or daily logfile.
It continues with a couple of examples of logger hierarchies, and then 
it seems to stop rather abruptly.
Strange.  Usually, Introduction means introduction to something else. 
But there doesn't seem to be anything here after the Introduction.


The JavaDoc item does not seem particularly useful in my case either.

No problem, I switched to the FAQ.

I read all titles (1 to 31).  There does not seem to be anything there 
talking about where the configuration files are, or how this relates to 
Tomcat logging.

So I started reading sequentially.
Here is a snippet of about where I almost gave up :

The DOMConfigurator.configure(String filename) method and its variants 
require a JAXP compatible XML parser, for example Xerces or Sun's 
parser. Compiling the DOMConfigurator requires the presence of a JAXP 
parser in the classpath.

Uhu.

Scrolling down a bit more, I get a list of the following thrilling 
features :
- Logging behavior can be set at runtime using a configuration file. 
Configuration files can be property files or in XML format.

- log4j is designed to handle Java Exceptions from the start.
- log4j can direct its output to a file, the console, an 
java.io.OutputStream, java.io.Writer, a remote server using TCP, a 
remote Unix Syslog daemon, to a remote listener using JMS, to the NT 
EventLog or even send e-mail.

- log4j uses 5 levels, namely DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR and FATAL.
- The format of the log output can be easily changed by extending the 
Layout class.
- The target of the log output as well as the writing strategy can be 
altered by implementations of the Appender interface.

- log4j supports multiple output appenders per logger.
- log4j supports internationalization.

Great stuff all of that probably, and it seems to say that you can do a 
lot of stuff in the configuration, but where /is/ the configuration file 
for Tomcat ?  That, it doesn't seem to say.


So after an hour, I'm pretty much back to square 1.

I am a Tomcat user, not a Tomcat developer.
I find Tomcat nice, I have a lot of respect for the people who develop 
it, and I am grateful to the people who answer rookie questions like 
mine on lists like this one.  I have no doubt that there are similar 
people in the log4j area.
But basically, I just want to install Tomcat, and run nice applications 
within it, with a minimum of trouble.
In this case, I would just like to know how to configure Tomcat or 
whatever, so that instead of having umpteen daily 
catalina.-mm-dd.log logfiles, I get only upmteen divided by 30 
monthly catalina.-mm.log logfiles.  Maybe even umpteen divided by 
365 yearly catalina..log logfiles.
But for that, it seems that the first step is to find the Tomcat 
configuration file that would tell me if log4j is being used, or finding 
the log4j configuration file that shows something that looks like 
catalina..log.


I tried, but I'm not finding it.
Am I the only one in that situation ?

Re: Tomcat producing (near) duplicate Catalina logs

2008-06-13 Thread David Fisher

Hi Andre,


I tried, but I'm not finding it.
Am I the only one in that situation ?


No, I've tried to read both the log4j docs and the tomcat logging  
docs. Nowhere is there a good working example that describes some real  
world situations. My trouble is different from yours, but I believe we  
are both looking for the same thing, an effective guide to tomcat  
logging.


The tomcat documentation for JULI talks about using both at the same  
time etcetera and somewhere in the muddle switches between.


Sorry, I don't think this is a hijack, it is my frustration.

Here is my situation which is complex and I KNOW is too complicated to  
ask for advise on the totality - I've been on the list to absorb  
relevant info, and maybe I'm ready.


When we went to 5.5.25 we lost all the really nice SIMPLE logging w/o  
bulletproof instructions on how to replace it. It would be nice to  
have a cookbook that directly translates the one config to the other  
showing how to do it with JULI, with log4j and with both happily co- 
existing. This last, for me has been the key part.


My trouble involves my rather weird configuration that grew from  
tomcat 3.3 to 4.1 to 5.5. I recently added Roller 4.0 and had to do a  
weirder config due its 16MB per context permgen space requirements for  
4000 classes moving many of its jars to tomcat/shared/lib ended my  
OOM. All my contexts logs are hijacked by Roller, and that is a roller  
question that I can't ask due to my weird configuration. But if I  
understood better how logging and tomcat interact I could understand.


Watching this list I am confident that I could reconfigure with apache  
in front of tomcats w/my webapp and other tomcats w/Roller. This would  
be ideal, and different logging mechanisms could be used in each  
tomcat. And my problem would stop, ... And it is what will be done.  
I prefer it for many reasons which many on this list have graciously  
provided.


I would still like to have someone help me guide through the logging  
configuration in some simple scenarios.


If this is done then I promise the people on this wonderful group that  
I'll try to distill it into a reasonable FAQ.


I'm on Solaris 8, w/Java 5.

My host context on Tomcat 4.1.31 looks like:

Host name=my.url.com appBase=webapps-url 
Valve  
className=org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve
   directory=logs  prefix=my_url_access.  
suffix=.log

   pattern=common/
Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger
   directory=logs  prefix=my_url_logger.  
suffix=.log

   timestamp=true/
/Host

In Tomcat 5.5.26:

Host name=my.url.com appBase=webapps-unity 
Valve  
className=org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve
   directory=logs  prefix=my_url_access.  
suffix=.log pattern=common/

/Host

How do I translate my 4.1.31 Logger to log4j in Tomcat 5.5.25? How do  
I do the same for JULI logging? How do I combine the two?


How does the classloader come into play? I know it has some affect  
because there is mention in the docs of tomcat/common/ vs. tomcat/ 
shared/?


Do the answers differ for Tomcat 6?

Now do you see why we simple users who must spend time programming  
their apps, are confused? Especially when you go from having a VERY  
SIMPLE interface to options you don't care about but are forced to  
make. Like which health care plan?


This is critical to me, I ought to go to Tomcat 6 and Java 6 as I go  
to Apache / Tomcat (for load balancing, SSL front end and splitting  
parts of webapps between differently configured tomcats, I certainly  
don't want to waste time with logging configuration,

Dave

Hi André,

Check out cronolog - it is a useful tool to manage tomcat logs in the
way you wish.

This post may point you in the right direction:
