RE: Shared Library Issue using JVM ext
From: Ishtiaq Ahmed [mailto:ishtiaq.ah...@ooober.com] I know this has been discussed many time but couldn't find the exact thing I am looking for. I am deploying several application over tomcat6. Each having its own libraries in WEB-INF/lib. Many of the applications are using the same libraries like hibernate3.jar so this is increasing the size of the deployment. What I want to do is to copy all those libraries in a single location something like /opt/java/jre/lib/ext and let all the application use that... Is the size of the deployment actually a problem for you, or are you trying to tidy up? Unless the size of the deployment is really, genuinely a problem, I'd keep the jars in each application. Yes, it costs a little disk space. Yet, it costs a little memory. It will save you many headaches when one application's library version changes - you will be able to redeploy that single application without worrying about versioning of the other libraries. If the size of the deployment is really a problem, read http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html and choose whether you want to put your jars in $CATALINA_HOME/lib. - Peter - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

The container may be running on a platform that does not even have a file system (e.g., a router), some webapps may be deployed only in memory, or the webapp may be deployed via an archive of some sort.

Location of properties file for web app in Tomcat
Greetings, I've spent some time searching online and reading other threads here, such as http://www.nabble.com/where-to-put-config-file-in-a-webapp-td16448528.html#a16450373. I have a question that wasn't quite answered there though. I have a web app that needs to have property information set, such as database IP, login, email server IP, login, etc. Typically I would put this in the WEB-INF/classes dir as a properties file. My concern is this ends up being inside the war file distributed. So a user would have to expand the war to get at the properties file and edit it. If they configure tomcat to run the war without expanding it, they now have to un jar it, edit the properties file, and jar it up again. I really don't want a consumer messing with the war at all, or even going into the expanded dir. I thought of just putting the properties file in the webapps dir, beside the war itself and reading it with ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(); 1. I don't see anybody else do this, so that suggests this is not the best place to put the properties file. 2. I was having some issues reading the properties file outside the war file. So my questions are: 1. Where is the best place to put the properties file if I want it located outside the war itself? 2. I can read it using ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream() or maybe ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader()? I realize a consequence to this is if they run more than once instance of the app on different urls, they would both read the same config file. That's a corner case I don't think we'll ever run into, although if we did, I could probably just have it read the app's configured uri as part of the properties file (uri1.properties, uri2.properties, etc). My ultimate goal is to give these instructions to a network admin: 1. Download and install Tomcat 2. Place war file in TomcatDir/webapps 3. Put the app.properties file at __ and set your database and email server info. 4. Start tomcat Thanks very much! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Location-of-properties-file-for-web-app-in-Tomcat-tp21767095p21767095.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Re: commons-logging problem
Certainly putting commons-logging and log4j in the container's common/lib directory is the documented configuration. However this does not allow application-level logging for libraries used by the application like digester or spring that themselves use commons logging. The application log messages they generate then end up in the container's log files, and have to be enabled by changing the container's logging config. This is far from ideal. Hence my desire to install commons-logging in the application's WEB-INF/lib directory .. when you hit the problem I encountered. John.

Sorry for not responding earlier, things have been a little hectic
this week.
I just got try it today and here is what happened:
I just tried the same thing, with no problems.
I made this class:
I don't see a package clause in your code, nor are the imports
shown. Here's the entire code I used, including the poor man's
logger, System.out:
package mypackage;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.catalina.Globals;
public class StaticContentServlet extends
org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet {
protected String getRelativePath(HttpServletRequest request) {
// Are we being processed by a RequestDispatcher.include()?
if (request.getAttribute(Globals.INCLUDE_REQUEST_URI_ATTR) !=
null) {
String result =
(String)request.getAttribute(Globals.INCLUDE_PATH_INFO_ATTR);
if (result == null) {
result =
(String)request.getAttribute(Globals.INCLUDE_SERVLET_PATH_ATTR);
}
if (result == null || result.equals()) result = /;
System.out.println(StaticContentServlet returning + result);
return result;
}
// No, extract the desired path directly from the request.
String result = request.getPathInfo();
if (result == null) {
result = request.getServletPath();
} else {
result = request.getServletPath() + result;
}
if (result == null || result.equals()) result = /;
System.out.println(StaticContentServlet returning + result);
return result;
}
}
I added it to my web.xml file:
Mine is almost the same, with the addition of a listings param:
servlet
servlet-namedocs/servlet-name
servlet-classmypackage.StaticContentServlet/servlet-class
init-param
param-namelistings/param-name
param-valuetrue/param-value
/init-param
load-on-startup1/load-on-startup
/servlet
just so the /docs mapping would do something useful. (The servlet
mappings are identical to yours.)
Referencing the URLs:
http://localhost:8080/sample/docs
http://localhost:8080/sample/docs/test.txt
got me this result in stdout:
StaticContentServlet returning /docs
StaticContentServlet returning /docs/test.txt
and the expected directory listings and the text file contents in
the browser window.

running tomcat with root user
I have the latest tomcat 6 installed under centos 5.2. The problem I am having is that it appears that I have to run tomcat as root user, because the spring app that tomcat starts needs to write files to other users' home directories. The tomcat user doesn't have access to these directories. I tried making these users part of a shared group, but to complicate the problem the users are jailed using jailkit. So it doesn't appear that jailkit lets me add group write privileges to the home directories and maintain a working jail. Can anyone suggest another alternative?

However, there are some backoff settings that can be adjusted so it shouldn't hang /forever/, but possibly for many minutes. So, removing failover will change it to 'fail fast' behavior.

Re: Location of properties file for web app in Tomcat
I think what Chuck mentioned is a nice approach. You could set an env variable and read it off when app server initializes something like this- String path = System.getenv(PROP_FILE_PATH); Use this file path to read the properties file.

Re: Apache Tomcat 6.0 loads blank page
After you placed the mms_tets inside the webapp directory, try accessing http://localhost:8080/mms_tets/ or something like http://localhost:8080/mms_tets/somefile.html Replace somefile.html with a file that exists.
