Tomcat Custom Authenticator
Need some help or advice.. For Security reasons, We need to do logging for IP,username, etc(AUDIT). We need to log success and failed attempts. We don't want to modify the internal classes(unless it's impossible). We are using the FORM auth-method, we POST to j_security_check. We have our own custom realm that extends RealmBase. All that works fine. Until we try and report back to the browser why the authentication failed, to many attempts, account expired etc.. So my question is. Since the authentication occurs in the Realm/FormAuthenticator, Has anyone been able to successfully extend this class ( FormAuthenticator ), and implement this kind of concept? I have found some examples online, but I have not been able to make them work. thanks...
sym link to serve documents within web application.
Hey everyone, Has anyone ever tried to serve documents from within a tomcat webapp vai a sym link. We have everything setup in tomcat to allowLinking within a context. But I can not get my web app to serve documents via the link.. example below. web-app location - /apps/development/tomcat/webapps/testSiteA within testSiteA I create a sym link called Documents pointed to /src/data/storage/Documents. Now I can upload/write documents via the commons jars with the sym link fine.. everything works great. but if I try to view those via something like.. http://hostname:port/testSiteA/Documents/test123.doc. I keep getting a 404 for file not found. I've been looking around, and trying to set a different context resource in my web.xml, server.xml, etc.. in different configs, but no luck so far. anyone ever done this before?
Re: sym link to serve documents within web application.
Thanks David, we found my misconfiguration about 30 minutes after I posted.. But I'm glad you brought up the redeploying issue. I didn't even think about that. So I guess I'll be adding some documentation to that piece. Thanks for your replies..

Re: connection pool
sorry if someone has already mentioned this, but you will probably have to add the testOnborrow Parameter. So that also means you have to use the ValidationQuery, etc... but it(the pool) should try to restablish a connection at that point. testOnBorrow will cause some more overhead, but it might resolve your problem. here's an example.. parameter namefactory/name valueorg.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory/value /parameter parameter namedriverClassName/name valueoracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver/value /parameter parameter nameurl/name valuejdbc:oracle:thin:@host:port:sid/value /parameter parameter nameusername/name valuejohn/value /parameter parameter namepassword/name valuedoe/value /parameter parameter namemaxActive/name value5/value /parameter parameter namemaxIdle/name value5/value /parameter parameter namemaxWait/name value-1/value /parameter parameter nameremoveAbandoned/name valuetrue/value /parameter parameter namevalidationQuery/name valueselect count(*) from dual/value /parameter parameter nametestOnBorrow/name valuetrue/value /parameter On 3/19/07, Gioia, Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm new to tomcat and have a problem with keeping up the connection to the database thru the connection pool. Almost every weekend the database gets bumped and the java app that were running needs to have tomcat restarted to reconnect to the database thru the connection pool. When we come in on Monday tomcat and the database are up and running, but the app will not connect to the database. Is there a way to reestablish the connection so our users don't have to wait until we come in on Monday to restart tomcat? Many Thanks, MG
Re: [OT] log4j, fileappender, owner, group, and umask
Ok cool.. I just had a round with our umask and groups being setup incorrectly. just a mess. On 3/6/07, stevethames [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for the input, Dan. Actually, I am aware of how permissions. The question is how to set permissions, owner, group on a log file created by FileAppender when it actually creates the log file. For the moment, I have solved the problem by using a separate log file for tomcat. Daniel Stephens wrote: If they are all the same group, then I would suggest just setting the umask to 022 or 027..

Thanks for responding. Yes, that's true, the file is owned by the tomcat user. My mod_perl stuff runs under apache (the httpd user) and I have some Perl daemons that run as root. In Perl, using log4perl, I can set the owner, group, and umask of the log file for file creation. I have a reason for keeping the user IDs (apache, tomcat, root) as they are. So, what I've done is made them all part of the same group. Its the group and group permissions I need to set on the log file using FileAppender. Any thoughts?

Re: SQLNestedException
1st. verifiy that the driver you need is in the Tomcat common lib. 2nd. verify your config in your server.xml and make sure your character case is correct. 3rd, double check your web.xml or context.xml to make sure your referencing your DataSource correctly, and finally post this and your class(or JSP ) code that is trying to get the connection. sounds like a configuration issue from this.

Re: Tomcat Persistent Session Issues
Where is this class com.formos.toolkit.data.IPersis located? Is it in the WEB-INF/classes directory? or in a JAR? I guess I would want to first make sure the webapp classloaded loaded it up first.
