 Do you see the same issue if you pre-compile that JSP?
 
 Surprisingly, yes.  So it's not only a compilation issue.

Ok. To summarise when you include net.ims.jcms.* in your imports the
page compiles quickly but takes ages to respond to the first request.

I wonder if this is related to loading a specific class in your library.
Can you use a test JSP try and isolate which class(es) are causing the
slow down?

My thinking is if we can reduce the scope of the problem to importing a
single class, we can then separate out that class and reduce the code in
it bit by bit until we have the bare minimum that causes the problem.
Hopefully, there will be little enough code left that it will be obvious.

Re: very slow class loading on initial JSP/servlet request after restart

2009-02-25 Thread Pieter Temmerman

 Thanks, Juha.  Actually Pieter suggested it a little while ago, and I've been 
 trying to get some information out of 
 strace.  The best I can do is to put strace in front of the java command 
 that's inside catalina.sh.  That's the command 
 that shows with ps -ef when Tomcat is running.  BUT, I get nothing out of 
 strace when I make page requests on a site, it 
 just shows output during Tomcat startup.  So, I've not figured out how to get 
 strace to say what the JVM is during the 
 delay.  

Try this strace command:

strace -f -etrace=\!futex,gettimeofday,clock_gettime -p
PID_OF_TOMCAT_JAVA

where PID_OF_TOMCAT_JAVA is the PID of your Tomcat, duh! :)

Using SSL tomcat

2009-02-25 Thread hevoila
Hello Apache tomcat team,

I've a tomcat 5.5 and jdk1.5.0_16 install on a windows 2003.
(NB: jdk is install on D: and a jre on C:, but the JAVA_HOME is define to d:)

I've build a auto-sign jks certificate.
(following the http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/ssl-howto.html)

I've setup in server.xml file a listen port to 80 and define a redirectPort to 
443.
I've also activate and setup ssl section, and 
adding 
keystoreFile=D:\myfolder\mycert.keystore 
keystorePass=x
and changing 443 port.

I've also change the redirectPort in ajp section.

When i try to connect on http://localhost/mywebapp, all works fine.
But when i try to connect on https://localhost/mywebapp/ i got an unable to 
connect error after a will.

In looking in tomcat\logs
I haven't any error, even if i change password, or delete mycert.keystore and 
restart tomcat.

The only error, i have is : 
WARNING: A docBase D:\tomcat\webapps\mywebapp inside the host appBase has been 
specified

Kings Regards,

Hevoila.

Re: mod_jk not working as expected - is there a bug??

In httpd conf I just see JkMount and no other directive. I searched for Jk.


There should be others as well, for instance JkWorkersFile to point to

Here is workers.properties file:

I generally don't like socket_timeout. Others do :)


worker.appfe1.prepost_timeout=5


5 milliseconds prepost timeout? You're kidding. I assume it should have 
been 5000.



worker.appfe1.recycle_timeout=900


This is deprecated. Use connection_pool_timeout instead. The value is 
OK, you should set connectionTimeout on the Tomcat AJP connector to 
90 then.


Since you are using prefork MPM, you might want to set 
connection_pool_minsize to 0 if you want to keep the number of 
established connections low.


And the same for the other members of the load balancer.

Reposting:

Apache Server - 2.2
Tomcat server 6
Jboss - 4.2

We have Web Servers talking to Jboss App Servers over mod_jk. When we
do our patch or upgrade of software we do it in rolling fashion so
that there is 0 customer impact. But it looks like mod_jk load
balancer on Web server doesn't detect it as soon as Jboss App Server
goes down. Our goal is to have 0 customer impact. So my question is
what can we do to overcome this problem. Web Server sees Http Error
Code 503.

Information from log file:

[Mon Feb 23 13:39:42.146 2009] [31682:4143745888] [error]
ajp_connection_tcp_get_message::jk_ajp_common.c (966): (appfe4) can't

ajp_service::jk_ajp_common.c (2097): (appfe4) Connecting to tomcat
failed. Tomcat is probably not started or is listening on the wrong
port

This means that mod_jk detected that your backend is down and thus puts it
into an error state. All following requests will no longer be sent to this
backend. Once a minute it will send a request there and try, but as long as
it is down this test will not succeed and thus all requests will be sent to
other nodes.

The first request that gets sent to the backend you stopped might get an
error back. If you want to prevent that from happening, use Cping/Cpong:

http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/generic_howto/timeouts.html

so we will detect the broken node before actually sending a request there.
More details are not possible to give without your JK configuration (Jk
directive sin httpd configuration files, workers.properties and if used
uriworkermap.properties).

The line number of the above message tells me you are using mod_jk 1.2.25.
Although there's nothing wrong in principal with 1.2.25, we always try to
improve and you might consider switching to 1.2.27.

You should also increase your JkLogLevel to info. As long as only occasional
info messages are in your log file everything is fine, but once error
messages show up, the additional info messages contain useful formation.

Rainer

But if you have only one Tomcat to send requests to, then all this tells

   In this case, I want apache to treat the request as DECLINED by mod_jk, so
that if we put some static content in apache at this place, it will be
served at least until tomcat is ready again.
   Which means, if we can test tomcat's availability before sending it the
actual request, we can DECLINE the request if necessary, and thereby apache
will serve it if it can.


Can you please file an enhancement request in Bugzilla, so that we don't 
forget about this. We could make that behaviour configurable. By default 
we would da lb failover or return an error page if no worker is left or 
no lb is involved, but optionally we could return DECLINE in all such 
cases or at least when no failover worker is left.

Subject: tomcat webapp FORM authentication problem

I have a very annoying problem with a secured folder
in my tomcat web application.


You could start the problem description by telling us the version of  
Tomcat you're using.  It's likely not pertinent for this particular  
issue, but it's annoying to hide such information.



The problem #1 is: login.html displays a form BUT there
is NO images, NO CSS formatting, and Javascript!


Think about it: you've declared the resources noted as being  
protected, authentication has not occurred, yet somehow you're  
expecting Tomcat to magically ignore the protection settings when  
the browser requests these resources?  You can't have it both ways -  
you need to place the resources the form needs outside of the  
protected area.



The problem #2 is: after successful authentication the
browser shows the SOURCE of the first javascript referenced
in index.html, instead of index.html


Try fixing the first problem and see if the second one disappears.


The problems reoccur after cleaning the cash and cookies of
the browser.


You robbed your browser?  Or did you clean out its cache?

TWO Axis web services listening on different ports

2009-02-25 Thread marcopb

Hi all.
All my web services are currently available on standard tomcat port: 8080
I need to expose one of those web services to another company and I would
like to use, for example, 8085 port.

Is it possible ? How ? There is no problem to stop Tomcat instance for all
web services (8080 and 8085). I mean if I need to restart Tomcat there's no
SLA for web service on 8085 port.

Talking about multiple Tomcat Instances
I've read http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/RUNNING.txt .
Is it the only solution I could apply ?
Is there any xml tag to let one Tomcat instance listen to multiple port ?

Thanks

Tomcat out of the box doesn't provide a way to suppress the stack traces 
for those errors. Like your post said, you need to use web.xml to 
configure your error pages.

Re: very slow class loading on initial JSP/servlet request after restart

2009-02-25 Thread Tim Funk

While I am late to this ... Is this an accurate summary?

- Slow re-load on a server
- Server is a production server
- Other servers are OK so it can only be reproduced on production server
- Initial looks at network seem to be no network activity
- There seems to be a hint at File.exists() causing an issue
- The wisdom of the crowds is pointing to disk issue

Would it be possible to copy the tomcat installation and webapp to 
another disk (or new directory) on the same machine and then run the 
copy on an alternate port? If it fails like it does on the lower port 
- you have a better sandbox for debugging. If not ... you have a new 
interesting data point in the debug process.


Last oddball question - even though this is a Linux server, is there any 
virus scanning software running?

I fail to see any difference between using Remote Desktop vs SSH in this 
situation; whatever account you log in with will require sufficient privilege 
to start and stop a service (note that startup.bat and shutdown.bat do not 
interact with the Tomcat service).

 I have others applications on port 80 and 8080
   

Well.. as they say on Mythbusters, There's your problem.  As I see it,
you have two choices:

1. Proxy your app through one of the existing apps that is bound to port
80 using either standard reverse proxy or mod_jk (assuming the app on 80
is Httpd or IIS).

2. Reconfigure the existing apps to bind to a specific IP and port,
leaving one combination of IP and port 80 available for this one.

Since you haven't let us know anything about your server setup, we can
only suggest very general things.  Port 80 is the well known port for
HTTP protocol and the one your browser assumes when you don't type it in
the address bar.  There's no way I know of  to make it behave differently.

This means that mod_jk detected that your backend is down and thus  
puts it
into an error state. All following requests will no longer be sent  
to this
backend. Once a minute it will send a request there and try, but as  
long as
it is down this test will not succeed and thus all requests will be  
sent to

other nodes.

The first request that gets sent to the backend you stopped might  
get an
error back. If you want to prevent that from happening, use Cping/ 
Cpong:

so we will detect the broken node before actually sending a request

you are right there is a mod-jk.conf. So given my workers.properties
file what should I change so that mod_jk detects that app server is
down before attempting to send the request. Shouldn't retries in
workers.properties try to connect to some other app server instead.

Here is mod-jk.conf

# Where to find workers.properties
JkWorkersFile conf/workers.properties

# Where to put jk logs
JkLogFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log

# Set the jk log level [debug/error/info]

# Allow mod_jk worker status reports, with the URL of http://servername/JkStatus

 There should be others as well, for instance JkWorkersFile to point to your

 can also be in files included to your main httpd configuration file via
 include directives.

 Here is workers.properties file:

 I generally don't like socket_timeout. Others do :)

 worker.appfe1.prepost_timeout=5

 5 milliseconds prepost timeout? You're kidding. I assume it should have been
 5000.

 worker.appfe1.recycle_timeout=900

 This is deprecated. Use connection_pool_timeout instead. The value is OK,
 you should set connectionTimeout on the Tomcat AJP connector to 90 then.

 Since you are using prefork MPM, you might want to set
 connection_pool_minsize to 0 if you want to keep the number of established
 connections low.

 And the same for the other members of the load balancer.

 Although there's nothing wrong in principal with 1.2.25, we always try to
 improve and you might consider switching to 1.2.27.

 You should also increase your JkLogLevel to info. As long as only
 occasional
 info messages are in your log file everything is fine, but once error
 messages show up, the additional info messages contain useful formation.

 I've setup in server.xml file a listen port to 80 and define

 I've also activate and setup ssl section, and
 adding
 keystoreFile=D:\myfolder\mycert.keystore
 keystorePass=x
 and changing 443 port.

Post your actual server.xml file, rather than describing what you think you 
changed.

 I've also change the redirectPort in ajp section.

If you're not using AJP, you should comment out the Connector, not modify it.

 The only error, i have is :
 WARNING: A docBase D:\tomcat\webapps\mywebapp inside the host
 appBase has been specified

You should fix that; remove the docBase attribute from the offending Context 
element.

Because you have specified attributes that are not allowed in your Context

 In my web application mywebapp.xml i've defined a context :
 Context path=/mywebapp docBase=mywebapp debug=99

Assuming your Context element is in conf/Catalina/[host]/mywebapp.xml, then

you are.)  The SSL config is very different when APR is employed:

Re: mod_jk not working as expected - is there a bug??

Just a wild guess: your prepost timeout of 5 milliseconds produces the 
error messages you cited. First correct this timeout, then do another 
clean test on your test system. You can even increase JkLogLevel to 
trace (not in production) so we can see exactly what is going on. Do not 
send many requests with JkLogLevel trace, just do a minimal test that 
shows the problem.


The early detection of a broken instance should be possible with your 
configuration.



Here is mod-jk.conf

There should be others as well, for instance JkWorkersFile to point to your

Here is workers.properties file:

I generally don't like socket_timeout. Others do :)


worker.appfe1.prepost_timeout=5

5 milliseconds prepost timeout? You're kidding. I assume it should have been
5000.


worker.appfe1.recycle_timeout=900

This is deprecated. Use connection_pool_timeout instead. The value is OK,
you should set connectionTimeout on the Tomcat AJP connector to 90 then.

Since you are using prefork MPM, you might want to set
connection_pool_minsize to 0 if you want to keep the number of established
connections low.

And the same for the other members of the load balancer.

We have Web Servers talking to Jboss App Servers over mod_jk. When we
do our patch or upgrade of software we do it in rolling fashion so
that there is 0 customer impact. But it looks like mod_jk load
balancer on Web server doesn't detect it as soon as Jboss App Server
goes down. Our goal is to have 0 customer impact. So my question is
what can we do to overcome this problem. Web Server sees Http Error
Code 503.

Information from log file:

[Mon Feb 23 13:39:42.146 2009] [31682:4143745888] [error]

ajp_service::jk_ajp_common.c (2097): (appfe4) Connecting to tomcat
failed. Tomcat is probably not started or is listening on the wrong
port

This means that mod_jk detected that your backend is down and thus puts
it
into an error state. All following requests will no longer be sent to
this
backend. Once a minute it will send a request there and try, but as long
as
it is down this test will not succeed and thus all requests will be sent
to
other nodes.

The first request that gets sent to the backend you stopped might get an
error back. If you want to prevent that from happening, use Cping/Cpong:

http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/generic_howto/timeouts.html

so we will detect the broken node before actually sending a request
there.
More details are not possible to give without your JK configuration (Jk
directive sin httpd configuration files, workers.properties and if used
uriworkermap.properties).

The line number of the above message tells me you are using mod_jk
1.2.25.
Although there's nothing wrong in principal with 1.2.25, we always try to
improve and you might consider switching to 1.2.27.

You should also increase your JkLogLevel to info. As long as only
occasional
info messages are in your log file everything is fine, but once error
messages show up, the additional info messages contain useful formation.

As far as I know, given the appropriate permissions for the account you

If you right-click on the My Computer icon of any Windows pc in your

Assuming your Context element is in conf/Catalina/[host]/mywebapp.xml, then

lsof has more options than a human can easily digest, but I think it is

You'll be surprised at how many I/O thinks a process uses, but maybe

Yes, Tim, that's pretty accurate.

Would it be possible to copy the tomcat installation and webapp to 
another disk (or new directory) on the same machine and then run the 
copy on an alternate port? If it fails like it does on the lower port 
- you have a better sandbox for debugging. If not ... you have a new 
interesting data point in the debug process.


That's a good suggestion, I'll do so.  I've been a bit concerned about running a second Tomcat instance on this 
production server since I've been having so much trouble with it, but if a second instance is a problem, I'll just turn 
it off.  It's probably better to leave the production instance alone, actually.  I have changed JVM versions, Tomcat 
versions, etc. over the course of this issue, by the way.


Last oddball question - even though this is a Linux server, is there any

Nope.

Try this strace command:

strace -f -etrace=\!futex,gettimeofday,clock_gettime -p

where PID_OF_TOMCAT_JAVA is the PID of your Tomcat, duh! :)


Thanks! That certainly did the trick.  The first time I ran strace against the Tomcat process, it brought Tomcat to a 
halt.  I had to restart it.


After the restart, it took an absolute eternity for the sites to respond to requests, as usual.  One thing that I 
haven't mentioned, by the way, is that all four sites begin to respond at the SAME TIME.  There appears to be something 
going on server-wide that finally resolves.  (There are currently four Host entries in server.xml, each of which having 
several Context entries, by the way.  Three hosts are on the same IP address, one has its own.)


During the startup stall phase, I requested my simple test JSP page.  strace revealed, as it did for all the other pages 
being requested on the server, repeated calls to stat64 and lstat64 of the SAME class files.  Here are the lines from 
strace while test6.jsp (precompiled into test6_jsp.class) was stalled:


http://www.ims.net/media/strace-test6-stall.txt

After I shut off strace (being convinced that it was hindering the server from getting done with its post-startup 
shenanigans), and the rest of the sites were finally responding to requests, I fired up strace again and requested 
test6.jsp, and got this:


http://www.ims.net/media/strace-test6-ok.txt

along with a successful HTTP response.  So: stat64; access; lstat64; stat64; read; read; read.  The class probably was 
already loaded from the previous stalled request.


During the Tomcat stall phase there are thousands and thousands of stat64, access, lstat64 calls to the same class files 
(and directories above those files) across pages on all four sites.


My next step is to set up a new instance on another port so I (hopefully) stop beating on the production sites with 
these diagnostics, and then do Mark's suggestion to import, one by one, the classes in my Java package to see if there 
is a particular one that is causing the delay.  I've tried that to some extent in the past and felt that the delay just 
increased linearly as I added more classes, but I can do it more methodically.

1. Initial requests to ANY JSP page on a site, precompiled or not, or a compiled servlet, take an inordinate amount of 
time to generate a response, often several minutes, as long as 20 minutes or so after the server is restarted.


2. After a response is finally generated from a given JSP, that JSP always 
responds quickly to subsequent requests.

3. The four virtual hosts start serving pages at the same time, after a Tomcat restart, as long as 20 minutes after 
Tomcat started up.


4. jstack showed that the delay during a small JSP request was during a call to java.io.File.exists().  It is still not 
known what the particular file was.


5. strace reveals that thousands and thousands of stat64, access and lstat64 calls are made to JAR files and classes 
during the initial stall phase.  I've posted a couple short examples from my test6.jar requests.


Without totally excluding it for instance, I would surmise that it is

Re: how

2009-02-25 Thread Anurag Kapur
As Chuck mentioned, you should have asked your question in a smarter way :)
Anyhow, coming back to your question,

You can use Apache HTTP server and use mod_proxy_http or mod_proxy_ajp
modules to forward all requests on port 80 on apache to port 8080 on tomcat.

Specifically use the ProxyPass directive to achieve what you want. Example:

ProxyPass   /   http://localhost:8080/your-app/

The above directive would forward all requests on the root context on port
80 to be proxied to your-app under tomcat on port 8080.

Read about it in detail here:

So what's going on during the frequent 11-second gaps?  (Was Rosemary Woods 
here?)


They are not only frequent, they are also totally regular.  Looks like a 
regular gap of 10 s + some fraction, that looks like 10 or 11 just 
because of the logfile stamp resolution.





Might want to redo the strace with the -T option to show the time spent inside 
each system call.


During the Tomcat stall phase there are thousands
and thousands of stat64, access, lstat64 calls to
the same class files (and directories above those
files) across pages on all four sites.


Actually it is totally regular : stat, access, lstat, stat, then 10.xxx 
delay, then again stat, access, lstat, stat, 10 seconds +.

What in this directory path is (are) a symlink(s) ?
/home/sites/ims/jcms/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/jsp/test6_jsp.class
and to what does it (they) point ?
And how is this different from the other 2 systems that work fine ?

 As far as I know, given the appropriate permissions for the account
 you use to do this, you can also access the services applet of
 another Windows machine remotely.  You do not need SSH or Remote
 Desktop or any external utility for that.
 If you right-click on the My Computer icon of any Windows pc in your
 network, and choose action in the top menu, the first item is
 connect to another computer.  You can then manage this other
 computer (if your account has these permissions, and only then), and
 turn services on/off on that other computer, including Tomcat.

Re: very slow class loading on initial JSP/servlet request after restart

2009-02-25 Thread Sam Hokin

NEW DISCOVERY - using a wildcard package import results in a much longer 
response delay!

I've taken Mark's suggestion that I import individual classes rather than importing all with a wildcard to see if a 
particular class is slowing down classloading.  It turns out that it's the WILDCARD itself that is causing most of the 
delay!


If I request the following wildcard import JSP:

%@ page import=java.util.Date %
%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.* % 


%
java.util.Date endDate = new java.util.Date();
out.println(endDate.toString());
%

it responds in 49 seconds, consistently, over several different tries (renaming the file each time to incur the delay). 
 That includes on-the-fly compilation.


If I request a JSP that imports EVERY class in net.ims.jcms explicitly (it's a 
lot of lines, so truncated below):

%@ page import=java.util.Date %
%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.AccessRole % 

%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.AccessRoleException % 

%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.AccessUser % 

%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.AccessUserException % 


... a bunch more here ...
%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.UtilityLink %
%@ page import=net.ims.jcms.ValidationException %
%
java.util.Date endDate = new java.util.Date();
out.println(endDate.toString());
%

it responds in 3 seconds, consistently (with renaming), which isn't as fast as it should be, but it's way faster than 49 
seconds.


I have no idea why a wildcard package import differs from importing explicit classes (from the same JAR), so I don't 
know what this is telling us, but it sure seems to be significant!  I have not been able to get lsof to display any 
files related to these requests, I expect they open and close too quickly for me to catch it.


I have run strace during a request of a wildcard import JSP (test7.jsp) on a standalone Tomcat instance so that I don't 
have lines from other requests.  The request is made at 15:24:09, and the response came at 15:24:58.  I've included the 
strace lines from that time range here:


http://ims.net/media/strace-test-wildcard.txt

You can see the read call on the HTTP GET request on the sixth line.  The HTTP 200 response is in a write call near the 
bottom.  Presumably everything that happened during the 49 seconds is recorded here.  You can see that the .java file 
has been opened within a second,


2498  15:24:09 open(/usr/local/tomcat-2/work/Catalina/test.ims.net/_/org/apache/jsp/test7_jsp.java, 
O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = 62 0.65


and the compiled class is opened at 15:24:58,

2498  15:24:58 open(/usr/local/tomcat-2/work/Catalina/test.ims.net/_/org/apache/jsp/test7_jsp.class, 
O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = 62 0.64


I have no idea how to interpret all the wheel-spinning that goes on in between.

Wow, good eye, Chuck, and those add up to at least 35 seconds of the delay - 
the bulk of it.  I have absolutely no idea
why it's looking there.  I certainly didn't put /net/ims/jcms in the classpath, 
and the jar file that contains
net.ims.jcms just has a stub MANIFEST.MF entry, nothing else, in META-INF.  I 
don't have a META-INF directory under the
web app ROOT.  The only place classes are stored under /net/ims/jcms is within 
WEB-INF/lib/jcms.jar.  But this is
clearly where the bulk of the time is spent, and one can see how this could 
scale up really poorly, since Tomcat is
looking for random core classes like Object.class and Throwable.class under 
/net/ims/jcms.

For comparison, here is the strace output from a test JSP that imports all of 
the net.ims.jcms classes explicitly (no
wildcird import), and responds in three seconds:

http://ims.net/media/strace-test-explicit.txt

You can see the read/GET near the top and the write HTTP 200 response near the 
bottom.  There is only ONE attempt to
find a file under /net/ims/jcms, and that only takes .025 sec.

It looks like we've boiled the problem, at least in this test JSP case, down to 
the classloader wasting 3 seconds per
try on stat-ing core Java classes in an imaginary location, /net/ims/jcms, on 
the server's filesystem, which actually
corresponds to a path WITHIN a jar file that I wrote, and which doesn't contain 
any core Java classes.  This sure seems
like a bug to me, but why it is manifested only on this one server, and primarily 
when I use a %@ page
import=net.ims.jcms.* % call, remains a mystery.  I can see how these 
3-second errant lookups can really bog down the
server when it starts up, though, when a ton of classes are being loaded for 
page requests on several virtual hosts.

Request not forwarded to login page with security-constraint after session time-out

2009-02-25 Thread Marcel Stör
Up to now I had always thought I understood the security aspects of  
the Servlet spec quite well. Looks like I was wrong...


[Problem]
Upon session time-out the request is not forwarded to the login page  
(form based auth). Nothing happens on the UI. However, forwarding to  
the login page does work during the initially login into the  
application.


[Setup]
Tomcat 5.0.28, but the behavior is the same in 5.5.
Application entry page at /app/app.jsp.
Entry Servlet at /app/AppServlet.
Login page at /public/login.jsp.
web.xml looks like this:
security-constraint
web-resource-collection
  web-resource-namemyapp/web-resource-name
  url-pattern/app/app.jsp/url-pattern
  http-methodGET/http-method
  http-methodPOST/http-method
  http-methodPUT/http-method
  http-methodDELETE/http-method
/web-resource-collection
web-resource-collection
  web-resource-namemyapp/web-resource-name
  url-pattern/app/AppServlet/url-pattern
  http-methodGET/http-method
  http-methodPOST/http-method
  http-methodPUT/http-method
  http-methodDELETE/http-method
/web-resource-collection
auth-constraint
  role-name*/role-name
/auth-constraint
  /security-constraint
  login-config
auth-methodFORM/auth-method
form-login-config
  form-login-page/public/login.jsp/form-login-page
  form-error-page/public/login.jsp?retry=true/form-error-page
/form-login-config
  /login-config
  security-role
role-name*/role-name
  /security-role

When I initially request /app/app.jsp Tomcat forwards to /public/ 
login.jsp as expected, I can login (using JDBCRealm) and will be  
forwarded to /app/app.jsp.


[Analysis]
I started Tomcat in debug mode with debug log level and set a  
breakpoint in FormAuthenticator.authenticate(HttpRequest,  
HttpResponse, LoginConfig). I see that eventually  
RequestDispatcher#forward() is invoked because it was detected that  
the request needs to be authenticated. I followed the control flow to  
ApplicationDispatcher.doForward(ServletRequest, ServletResponse) but  
nothing seems to be wrong - at least to me. The log contains the  
following:
23:27:55,251 DEBUG AuthenticatorBase:413 - [] Security checking  
request POST /app/AppServlet
23:27:55,252 DEBUG RealmBase:422 - []   Checking constraint

Tomcat 6.0.x is not affected
The unsupported Tomcat 3.x, 4.0.x and 5.0.x versions may be also affected

Note: Although this vulnerability affects relatively old versions of
Apache Tomcat, it was only discovered and reported to the Apache Tomcat
Security team in October 2008. Publication of this issue was then
postponed until now at the request of the reporter.

Description:
Bug 40771 (https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40771) may
result in the disclosure of POSTed content from a previous request. For
a vulnerability to exist the content read from the input stream must be
disclosed, eg via writing it to the response and committing the
response, before the ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException occurs which will
halt processing of the request.

Mitigation:
Upgrade to:
4.1.35 or later
5.5.21 or later
6.0.0 or later

Example:
See original bug report for example of how to create the error condition.

Credit:

 The only place classes are stored under /net/ims/jcms
 is within WEB-INF/lib/jcms.jar.

I'll poke around in the webapp classloader to see if I can find anything 
interesting, but in the meantime, is there a /net directory on the problematic 
server?  If there is and it targets a remote file system, that might explain 
the long delay on these stat() calls.

jsvc degrades performance in production

2009-02-25 Thread B.V. Prasad
I am running Tomcat 6 on a group of Linux servers behind a loadbalancer. This 
setup was working fine when I ran Tomcat as root. However, when I moved to 
jsvc, the production servers started to become unavailable within a couple of 
hours, serving thousands of requests. I had to restart them to be online again, 
only to get into the same issue in a couple of hours. When switched back to run 
as root, things were fine again. I could find no errors in any logs.

I found that jsvc uses client JVM (the servers are server-class VMWare servers) 
by default. I am suspecting when I ran as root (startup.sh), Tomcat used server 
JVM that gave better performance, while jsvc performed worse with client JVM, 
causing my maxThreads (150) to exhaust, acceptCount (100) to fill up and making 
tomcat to deny requests. I am guessing if I make jsvc to use server JVM, my 
problem will go away. I appreciate if someone can validate this theory or offer 
other clues before I try this in production. Of course, I shall also try a 
stress test case.

Thanks,
BV Prasad

RE: very slow class loading on initial JSP/servlet request afterrestart

2009-02-25 Thread Caldarale, Charles R
 From: Sam Hokin [mailto:s...@ims.net]
 Subject: Re: very slow class loading on initial JSP/servlet
 request afterrestart

 It looks like we've boiled the problem, at least in this test
 JSP case, down to the classloader wasting 3 seconds per
 try on stat-ing core Java classes in an imaginary location,
 /net/ims/jcms, on the server's filesystem, which actually
 corresponds to a path WITHIN a jar file that I wrote, and
 which doesn't contain any core Java classes.

Some comments on the above:

1) It's not a Tomcat or JVM classloader that's doing the lookup - it's the JDT 
compiler hunting for unresolved class references.

2) The Object.class, Throwable.class, etc., core class files are not known to 
be core until they *haven't* been found on any imported packages that include a 
wildcard.  That's why the lookups are done with a wildcard, and not done with 
explicit classes.

Once you have your test Tomcat set up on the problematic server, try adding 
this line to the conf/logging.properties file:

org.apache.jasper.level = ALL

That will display a *lot* of information about what's going on during JSP 
compilation.  One thing in particular printed out during Tomcat initialization 
is the compiler classpath for JSPs in each webapp, which might show why the 
lookups are being done at the root of the file system.
