The previous question about this includes a test case:
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@tomcat.apache.org/msg66793.html

The other concern is that according to the API, after receiving an END event
the request will get recycled.  So the second END event may give you a
recycled request/response that would be dangerous to close the event or
touch the request/response.

Are you suggesting ignoring the second END event?  If so, what should I use
to detect it's a duplicate?  Using anything in the request/response wouldn't
be safe if they had been recycled.  I suppose I could use the identity of
the CometEvent itself?

Would it work to then change the appBase to 
/home/user/html/ROOT, or would 
it be better to have a secondary directory 
(/home/user/html/webapps) with a 
ROOT directory inside of it?


The latter, since you must not ever have appBase == docBase.

Re: Out of Memory Errors when upgrading from 5.0.27 to 6.0.14

2008-02-11 Thread Dan D.

Chuck,

I updated the server.xml for this user to be:

Host name='www.domain.com'
   debug='0'
   appBase='/home/user/html'
   unpackWARs='true'
   autoDeploy='false'
   Aliasdomain.com/Alias
   Valve 
className='org.apache.catalina.authenticator.SingleSignOn'

   debug='0'/
   Valve 
className='org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve'

   directory='/var/log/user'
   prefix='tomcat_access.'
   suffix='.log'
   pattern='common'
   resolveHosts='false'/
   /Host

I added a ROOT directory in /home/user/html, with a META-INF and WEB-INF 
directory in it.  Added context.xml with the contents of:


Context debug='0' reloadable='false'/

inside META-INF.

Removed WEB-INF from /home/user/html.

Removed all contents from the Tomcat work directory as well.

When starting tomcat, however, the work directory is still full of 
directories that have nothing to do with the actual application.


If I read your response correctly (there's a good chance I didn't), the 
steps I took should be the right ones.  However, if that were the case, 
should all of the random directories still have a place in the Tomcat work 
directory?


Thanks!

Dan.

Right there is the first problem: docBase and appBase must never be the
same - lots of things go wrong internally when they both refer to the
same directory.  You need to remove the Context entry for the default
webapp from server.xml and place the default webapp files under
/home/user/html/ROOT.  If you want to specify attributes for the default
webapp, put the Context element in
/home/user/html/ROOT/META-INF/context.xml, without the path or docBase
attributes.  This works on all levels from 5.0 on up.

When that's straightened out, delete everything under the work directory
before restarting Tomcat.

Re: Out of Memory Errors when upgrading from 5.0.27 to 6.0.14

2008-02-07 Thread Dan D.
It is entirely possible that this environment isn't setup in a optimal way, 
and also that I may be messing up some of the proper names.


To provide a real world example (names and paths have been changed, but all 
information is the same), here is the Host entry for a domain (same in both 
TC5 and 6 currently) that we are using, as well as the work directories for 
each:


server.xml entry:
Host name='www.domain.com'
debug='0'
appBase='/home/user/html'
unpackWARs='true'
autoDeploy='false'
Aliasdomain.com/Alias
Context path='' docBase='' debug='0' reloadable='false'/
Valve  className='org.apache.catalina.authenticator.SingleSignOn'
 debug='0'/
Valve  className='org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve'
 directory='/var/log/user'
 prefix='tomcat_access.'
 suffix='.log'
 pattern='common'
 resolveHosts='false'/
/Host


Work directory under Tomcat 5:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www.domain.com]# pwd; find .
/web/tomcat/work/hosting/www.domain.com
.
./_
./_/tldCache.ser

Work directory under Tomcat 6:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www.domain.com]# pwd ; find .
/web/tomcat/work/hosting/www.domain.com
.
./_
./stats
./files
./includes
./misc
./modules
./profiles
./scripts
./sites
./themes
./forum
./lists
./members
./staging

As for why the WEB-INF is at the same level as a war file, it is a shared 
hosting environment, and that is their document root.  It allows the user to 
have an application at http://domain.com as well as upload a war file for 
additional applications they wish to run from say, http://domain.com/blog. 
It sounds as though this should be done differently?


I'm more or less rebuilding the environment with the upgrade, so any 
recommendations are very welcome.


Thanks,
Dan

Customer has the following directory structure:

/home/user/html
\_ WEB-INF/
|\_ classes/
|\_ lib/
\_ images/
\_ movies/
\_ mp3s/
\_ blog/
\_ new_application.war


That looks very wrong.  Why is there a .war file at the same level as
WEB-INF?


Now, in Tomcat 5, they would have a work directory structure of the
following:
/{tomcat.home}/work/{engine.name}/
\_ ./application_name
\_  _ (the directory name is simply _)
| \_ tldCache.ser
\_   new_application
\_ tldCache.ser


That also looks wrong; all tldCache.ser files should be at the same
level - immediately under the respective work/Catalina/[host]/[appname]
directories.  Even if you're confusing application_name with the name
on a Host element, something seems very broken with your appBase
and/or docBase settings.  Until that's straightened out, all bets are
off.

Out of Memory Errors when upgrading from 5.0.27 to 6.0.14

2008-02-04 Thread Dan D.
Hello all,

I'm currently working on upgrading our systems from using Tomcat 5.0.27 to 
6.0.14.

The upgrades are not being done in place (ie, we will have both systems out 
there, and will be doing migrations to the new version).  I have been able to 
resolve most of the issues we have run into thus far, however, I am now 
somewhat stuck, and am hoping someone here may be able to help.

About the environment:
Shared hosting, with approximately 300-600 users on a server, with an average 
of ~1500 applications (many users have a few applications).  Not all users are 
utilizing any java at all, however.  Apache 1.3.33 is running and configured to 
serve static content.

The older servers with TC5 on them have ~6GB of available RAM, new servers for 
TC6 have 8GB of RAM.  

Customer content is stored on a remote NAS server.

While I understand that having the Host and Context declaration for all 
users listed in server.xml, that is how we have it currently configured.  

About the problem:
When tomcat is started and running on our existing 5.0.27 server, it uses 
approximately 1GB of RAM, and successfully runs all applications without issue.

When starting tomcat on the 6.0.14 server with the _exact_ same content, 
however, it runs out of heap space.  This is the issue I'm running into right 
now that I can't seem to find any answers about.  Attempting to increase the 
available heap results in an error allocating memory upon startup.


The output from jmap seems to show that the majority of the heap/memory is 
being consumed by character arrays.

When viewing the {tomcat.home}/work/{engine}/{application} directory, it 
appears there is a fair difference on how these are loaded into tomcat.

On Tomcat5, this directory consists of only directories that contain a WEB-INF 
directory in them, and each of those have a tldCache.ser file.

On Tomcat6, this directory consists of all directories located inside a 
directory that contains a WEB-INF directory.

For example:
Tomcat 6:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]# pwd ; find .
/web/tomcat/work/hosting/sitename.com
.
./_
./cgi
./stats
./php_uploads
./images
./ad
./Video
./Templates
./Flv
./Songs
./newwebsite
./old files
./manager

Tomcat5:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]# pwd; find .
/web/tomcat/work/hosting/sitename.com
.
./_
./_/tldCache.ser

And the contents of the actual home directory are:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] html]# find . -maxdepth 1 -type d
.
./cgi
./stats
./php_uploads
./WEB-INF
./images
./ad
./Video
./Templates
./Flv
./Songs
./newwebsite
./old files

I have read http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Memory and attempted all the 
suggestions there, to no avail.

Thus, it appears that on Tomcat6, it is attempting to load all of these paths 
into memory, and eventually runs out.  Tomcat5 did not load all of the paths to 
directories without applications, and thus uses less of the heap.

Does it seem like I am on the right track here?  Have others encountered this 
in the past?  Is there a way to prevent this behavior within Tomcat 6?

I thank you for any insight you can provide on this issue.

Sincerely,
Dan D.

tld parsing error after upgrade to TC6

Hello everyone.

I'm currently working on upgrading our environment to Tomcat 6.0.14 from 
5.0.27.  This is run on Apache 1.3.33 with mod_jk 1.2.25 (which is being 
upgraded from jk2).

I'm able to get the basic sites working fine, however, there are a few 
applications that are still causing issues, and was hoping someone here could 
at least point me in the right direction on how to determine the exact cause of 
the issue.

Running Tomcat with debug logging (java.security.debug=access,failure) enabled, 
I get the following output regarding the error.  Now, based off this output, it 
sounds like the error is occurring when the taglib.tld file from the jspsql.jar 
file attempts to make a call to an external website.

Also, this error only occurs when we have -security enabled on startup of 
Tomcat (which it needs to be for our environment).

If anyone can offer some advice on what the cause and/or resolution of this may 
be, I would be most grateful.

Re: If xerces is in WEB-INF/lib this is used for deployment/web.xml parsing on tomcat6 (bug or feature?)

2007-07-28 Thread Dan D.
I'm wondering if anyone has any input regarding this?  I am having a similar 
problem.


We are currently working on upgrading from Tomcat 5 (5.0.27) to Tomcat 6 
(6.0.13) to take advantage of the better resource utilization.  We are also 
going from mod_jk2 to mod_jk (1.2.23), as we have had issues with jk2.


This is in a shared environment, so I do not know ahead of time what our 
users will be loading in their webapps, and we have too many users to be 
able to go through all of their apps and be sure they work properly.


I do have a sampling of apps that I am using to attempt to get a rough 
feeling of how the migration will go, however.


There are a couple issues I have run into thus far, the xerces issue is one 
of them.  What I'm wondering is if there is a way to override the 
functionality of allowing the WEB-INF/lib/xercesImpl.jar and 
WEB-INF/lib/xml-apis.jar (and potentially other system jar files) being used 
for a given app?  Since we are not using xerces as the xml parser (crimson 
is still being used here), it causes the web-app to fail, as it can't find 
the ${java.home}/jre/lib/xerces.properties file.


Any advice would be greatly apprecated.

Thanks,
Dan

Subject: If xerces is in WEB-INF/lib this is used for deployment/web.xml 
parsing on tomcat6 (bug or feature?)




Hi,

today i played around with tomcat 6 (latest).
I have an old webapp wich used Xerces 2.0.0. The Webapp deploys fine and 
runs without Problems until i try to reload the Context.
In this case i get a NullpointerException fro xerces when it tries to load 
web.xml via JNDI.


I played around with it and found that:
- when xerces is not present in WEB-INF/web.xml, the jdk-builtin xml 
parser is used (com.sun...)
- when xerces is present in WEB-INF/web.xml, it is used to parse web.xml 
during deployment and during reload
- in the 2nd case reload fails because the old xerces cannot read from 
JNDI


I'm not sure how to solve this. I could change the Xerces version of my 
application but this is the first of many apps i want to migrate to tomcat 
6. Maybe some of this apps will not work with newer xerces.


I think tomcat should _not_ use a parser which is within the webapp's lib 
directory for tomcat-specific tasks.


What do you think?

mod_jk along side mod_dir -- How to get PHP to be seen as a default page

2007-06-14 Thread Dan D.
Hello,

First, my apologies for inadvertently hijacking a previous thread.  Long time 
reader, first time poster.  Won't happen again.

Now, First the versions:
Apache : 1.3.33
Tomcat: 6.0.13
mod_jk: 1.2.23

I am currently working on upgrading our environment to a newer version of 
Tomcat and mod_jk, and seem to be running into an issue with mod_jk and 
mod_dir.  More specifically, the issue I am running into is the default file 
list.

As I understand, it is intended behavior for the Apache DirectoryIndex 
directive to be more or less ignored, and instead the welcome-file-list / 
directive in web.xml is used to determine which files are loaded and in 
which order by default.

Now, the issue I run into is that I do not know in advance what our 
customers will be loading on their site.  There is a very real possibility 
that they may have an index.php file, which we want to have load first. 
This is something that I want to have Apache load, instead of Tomcat 
attempting to parse it, since we run php in a sandbox (suPHP).

Everything I have attempted, ends up basically the same when attempting to 
view a site by the hostname only (ie., http://hostname.tld/)

If I add
welcome-fileindex.php/welcome-file
to the welcome-file-list in my web.xml, it simply asks me to download the 
php file, instead of it being parsed by Apache.

If it is not in the welcome-file-list, it simply goes to the next one that 
is (index.html) and is still parsed by Tomcat, not Apache.

The related Apache Jk settings are as follows:


In addition, after the mod_jk include, but prior to any Jk settings, I have 
the following:


LoadModule dir_module   libexec/mod_dir.so
LoadModule jk_modulelibexec/mod_jk.so

IfModule mod_dir.c
DirectoryIndex default.html default.htm index.php index.shtml index.html 
index.htm home.html home.htm welcome.html index.jsp
/IfModule
Location /
SetEnvIf REQUEST_URI ^/(.*)/*.php$ no-jk
SetEnvIf REQUEST_URI ^/(.*)/*.html$ no-jk
/Location

JkWorkersFile /web/conf/workers.properties
JkUnMount /*.php local
JkMountFile /web/conf/uriworkermap.properties
JkLogFile /web/logs/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel info
JkLogStampFormat [%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] 
JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
JkRequestLogFormat %w %V %U %T

The contents of workers.properties are:

worker.list=local,jkstatus
# Set properties for worker1 (ajp13)
worker.local.type=ajp13
worker.local.host=localhost
worker.local.port=8009
worker.local.lbfactor=1
worker.jkstatus.type=status
worker.local.mount=/ /*



The contents of uriworkermap.properties are:
#exclude extensions
!*.html=local
!*.php=local


I understand that there are a few settings that are redundant, but I have 
tried every don't touch php, tomcat setting I can find, and it is still 
attempting to parse it.

Also a thing to note.  This only happens when attempting to view the default 
page.  If I browse directly to http://hostname.tld/index.php, it works fine.

So, my question is, how do I either prevent Tomcat from handling these 
requests, or tell it to pass them back to Apache if it doesn't know what to 
do with them?

I thank you for your time and help in this matter,

Dan D.
