Tomcat 7 Valve not logging correct response size
Good morning, I'm using Tomcat 7.0.16 and a Valve in the server.xml file that uses the %B option to log the "Bytes sent, excluding HTTP headers" (http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/valve.html). directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt" pattern="%H %p %m %D %s %B %a %t "%r"" resolveHosts="false"/> This works correctly for small response size (up to 30-40 kB), but for bigger sizes it doesn't; it only writes zero as response size in the web access log (I have tested that with 100 kB and 1000 kB static files). Any idea why is that happening and what can be done to overcome? Antonios PS. OS is MS Windows XP 32bit SP3

After much more searching, I still haven't been to find anything like a "no password realm", so what I've been hacking around is to add an authenticate() method to my valve, where that calls an realm.authenticate(), then a register() method. This is more of an "experiment" than something realistic. Anyway, doing the above, I've been able to successfully authenticate the incoming userID "into the Tomcat realm". What I mean by "into the Tomcat realm" is that I get a MemoryUser object back, that has the roles (via MemoryUser.getRoles()) that are configured in the tomcat-users.xml. In other words, a header comes into Tomcat with, say, userID of "foobar". My valve code authenticates the user into the Tomcat realm, and then things like isInRole(), etc. seem to all work. What I'm still trying to figure out is that the realm.authenticate() is still requiring a password match. I thought that I could coerce the realm.authenticate() to do a cert authentication, because I've read that with that, it basically just tries to do a match of the user string in tomcat-users.xml, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that (coerce the authentication method) yet. If anyone knows how to do that, please post back. Thanks, Jim - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

1. I think you know the FAQ:
http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding
2. Make sure that the web browser understands what character encoding
the web form uses.
Some browsers remember what encoding was used on the previous page and
use that instead of what is provided by server.
Mixing both ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 forms on the same site is bad in this sense.
Make sure that content type and charset value in
a) Content-Type HTTP header sent by server and
b) in META tag in HTML text
have _literally_ the same value. If they both are present and they do
not match, odd things may happen in "non-compliant" browsers.
3. A servlet or JSP page called as "include" cannot change the content
type (and thus the charset). The <%@page contentType=".."%> directive
will be ignored.

Konstantin Kolinko

Name comp is not bound in this Context
I'm currently migrating from Tomcat 5.5 to 7.0. I have everything pretty much running now. But I have one webapp that has run fine for years on 5.5, but will not run on 7.0. I get the following error message: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name comp is not bound in this Context. It occurs inside a servlet that autoruns on startup. I'm trying to access a datasource resource statement defined in the context. The weird thing is that I copied that same app to another host on the same server, and it works fine. I'm stuck... any ideas what might be causing this message? Thanks. Jerry
Disabling Apps in host root
When I start tomcat, it tries to start an app for every folder in the host root directory. Some folders are really apps (with WEB-INF), and some are folders that are not apps at all. It starts up the apps in folders with WEB-INF, but also shows other folders as apps in the manager. I would like to control the apps I want to start up and prevent TC from starting everything it can find. I figured having a context defined might control it. But it doesn't seem to care if there is a context or not. Is there a way to control the apps that start up (short of removing the folders from the root)? Thx. Jerry

Character set issue
Hi.
I need help with a problem on a Tomcat system. The system is of difficult access, and I
cannot access it directly right now (this is Sunday night in Europe).
I know that the system runs Tomcat 6.something, under Oracle/Sun Java 1.6, and that's all
I can say right now. The platform is RedHat RHEL, current version.
The problem which happens is that, after the update of a webapp (of which I do not have
the code), it seems that non-US-English "diacritic" characters posted to the webapp from a
web , are now "corrupted". And I would like to understand better the Tomcat
mechanism for reading HTTP request form parameters, so that I can start to figure out what
is going wrong.
The webapp consists of a single servlet, wrapped by two filters.
The application's web.xml defines the order as
filter1
filter2
servlet
with both filters processing all requests to the servlet.
"filter1" is a commercial product used on many Tomcat sites.
"filter2" is my own filter (and it is the only part of which I have the source
code)
"servlet" is also a commercial product of which I do not have the code, and the one which
has just been updated.
What I would like to know is : with a setup such as the above, how does Tomcat determine
in which /character set/ the body of the POST will be read ?
For example :
Suppose that we have 2 html forms, form1 and form2. Both forms are functionally
identical, and contain a text input box named "name1".
The form form1 has an html declaration which specifies it as having the charset
"iso-8859-1".
The form form2 has an html declaration which specifies it as having the charset
"UTF-8".
The user, in the input box "name1" of each form, types the string "TÜV" (second character
= uppercase U with umlaut) and then posts the form to the webapp.
The user browser is the same in all cases.
If the servlet executes a request.getParameter("name1"), what are the factors which can
determine how it receives the value of this parameter ?
Or maybe my question should be : /can/ the servlet (or one of the filters) do anything
that would cause the value of "name1" to /not/ be a correct Java "TÜV" string in the servlet ?
Additional information :
Only the servlet was updated. Prior to that update, the application worked correctly. So
I strongly suspect that it is the updated servlet which creates the problem. But I'd like
to understand /how/ it can create such a problem, and if for example something in filter1
or filter2 could contribute to the problem, or not.
Filter1 is an authentication servlet filter, and as far as I know it only checks HTTP
headers, and does not concern itself with the body of the request. But I suppose that
even the request body "passes through" this filter, and that it could presumably corrupt
this body (although I would consider this unlikely right now).
Filter2 is my own filter (and I am not a Java expert). This filter works at a number of
installations (and also here, before this servlet update). It subclasses the HTTP
request, because it needs to add a HTTP header to the request, on-the-fly. But the
subclass only overrides the methods which have to do with the HTTP headers, and does not
handle the body directly.
Any information or ideas welcome.

In other words, even though my valve code can assert a user into Tomcat, and even if that same user already exists in the Tomcat realm, the asserted user seems to be 'disassociated' from the same user in the Tomcat realm? Need to get some terminology correct here. A Realm does not normally contain users, roles, or any other authentication or authorization _data_; rather, it is a Java class that embodies rules for examining the credentials supplied by a login attempt and comparing them to credentials and roles stored in some external location. By default (and never meant to be used in production), the external location is the file tomcat-users.xml, and the Realm is UserDatabaseRealm (augmented by LockOutRealm to discourage probing). Several other Realm classes are supplied with Tomcat, to allow access to credentials from LDAP servers, relational databases, JAAS, etc. I think what you need is essentially a Realm that does no authentication of its own (trusting httpd to do that), but does perform the authorization function. It can then map the userid to whatever set of roles are appropriate for that user, and return the appropriate response when queried. See the doc for details: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/realm-howto.html It would seem likely that someone out there has written a Realm that performs the above functions in conjunction with httpd authentication. (Note: you keep using the word "Apache" - which is a software organization with many products - when you're referring to httpd, a specific Apache product, as is Tomcat.) - Chuck Hi Chuck, Corrections understood, and I'll try to be more careful. As you point out, and as I mentioned earlier in the thread, it seems like I've come all the way around to the original subject "...Tomcat LDAP-type realms support "no password" authentication?". I've been and still am looking around for something like that, but haven't found it yet. I'm still puzzled by something though. Even if I did find (or implement) a realm that was a "no password realm", how do I tie the two pieces that I end up with, the valve and the no-password realm, together? In other words, I can pull the userID from the incoming header in the valve, but then I think that the valve code then needs to authenticate against the no-password realm. Is that correct? And, if so, how to do that? I've been looking for a way (API?) to programmatically "authenticate the user" against Tomcat, so that I could add that into my valve code, but haven't been find anything yet. I am answering here, but it also follows-up on other previous messages to the list, to try and keep this manageable. I believe that now you have reached a fundamental issue which you need to resolve first, before looking at the technical details of how to do it. The basic issue - and I may not be expressing this entirely using the correct terms - is that the notion of "role" is somewhat specific to the Java servlet world, and it does not entirely match what in other "scopes" is called a "user attribute" and in yet other scopes is called a "user group", or even "privileges" for users and/or groups. I don't know how OAM works, nor on what kind of concept among the above its "permissions" (to use yet another related concept) are based. But in your case, to be entirely consistent, you would have to do the following : After the user is /authenticated/ (meaning that you just have a user-id which you can trust), comes the /authorization/ part. That is, the user wants to access this webapp in Tomcat; is he allowed to do that ? And to be consistent, you would have to ask OAM. And OAM would answer yes or no, on the base of information that OAM has, and Tomcat doesn't. Because if you do otherwise, then you are going to find yourself obliged to duplicate under Tomcat a whole management of "roles" and keep them in sync with whatever back-end OAM uses to determine this. To be more explicit : suppose you protect an application by Tomcat's declarative style of security, and in the web.xml of that application, you indicate that this application can only be used by users which have the "roleX" in their list of roles. Then whenever a user tries to access the application, Tomcat will make a "isUserInRole" call, to find out if the current user has the role "roleX". And for that, Tomcat will need a Realm, and this Realm will need a back-end which it can check to answer that question. And if this back-end is independent from the OAM system, then somehow you will have to keep it synchronised. Because tomorrow the user can be promoted or demoted, and not have access to this application anymore, and this will be managed by the people who manage the users in the OAM system. And you may also need a

Better practice is to separate the two: /path/to/httpd/docroot/ /path/to/httpd/docroot/index.html -> myhost.com/index.html /path/to/httpd/docroot/images /path/to/appbase/ /path/to/appbase/ROOT /path/to/appbase/ROOT/index.jsp-> myhost.com/index.jsp /path/to/appbase/myapp/index.jsp -> myhost.com/myapp/index.jsp > Tried adding following to apache config file but that didn't help serving > jsp files from apache document root.

MVC or Model2 with Tomcat
Apache 2.2.16 is connected to Tomcat 6.0.29 through mod_jk version 2 and every thing is working fine, but to implement Model2 or MVC, I need to serve JSP files from apache document root and don't know what is the best soluction. Tried adding following to apache config file but that didn't help serving jsp files from apache document root. JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 Should i change Apache document root to tomcat's web application root to be able to support jsp files in apache document root ? Or should i change the Tomcat's docbase to Apache's document root ? Or it can be done be aliasing in apache config file: Alias /examples /vat/tomcat3/webapps/examples Thanks for help
