Re: RemoteHostValve for infinite domains? & Patch submit question...
yes, I have thought through all those actually. Was just talking about urlrewrite filter and apache this morning. Issue with that then is having to keep their company name in a param of every single redirect seam does which is not the easiest of things to dothat way, company could be put in front .domain.com. I like the ip idea(except for needing two tomcats). Two services in tomcat doesn't work as then we would need different ports which is definintely not something we want. I decided I am going to go the route of finding that Host matching code which probably looks up in a map of domain to Host object to route request to the Host/Engine(*which file is that in so I can jump to it?*), and just loop through it instead with endsWith. *hmmm, too bad there is not a pluggable component to Service or something or whoever owns the lookup like in server.xml lookupClass="com.alvazan.tomcat.LookupHost" or something*? I could certainly provide a patch so people could plug into tomcat what they like based on performance considerations...ie. endsWith loop is not the best if you have 400 domains on one tomcat.

Re: RemoteHostValve for infinite domains? & Patch submit question...
hmmm, I don't think Engine worksaccording to http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/engine.html "Exactly one *Engine* element MUST be nested inside a Service<http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/service.html>element" I need "two"one for requests .domain1.com and one for .domain2.com where is infinite combination. PATCH submission: I am not interested in regular expression matching and I have seen many posts on users trying to do .domain.com, so is serverName.endsWith(domainName) that much of a performance hit? This patch would be great for many applications that just set up wildcard DNS so all subdomains point to the tomcat ip like basecamp or other products. Right now, the problem is we have two apps with two different domains each with infinite subdomains. thanks, Dean On Thu, Apr 1, 2010 at 8:37 AM, Dean Hiller wrote: > So, xxx.dev.premonitionx.com will go be routed to > > > I will give that a try tonight then.

how to configure multiple urls with app not starting twice
I have been going off this documentation... http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/html-manager-howto.html which is a bit confusing. I really want to do something like this... but the doc says path HAS to be saasmain. Doc also says docBase can't be inside appBase which is why I do the ../apps. I want to do 3 different domains each being at the root of tomcat, but I seem to keep getting it wrong. ALSO, I want my files to be saasmain.war, timecard.war, not ROOT.war as well. I could cheat and do the ROOT.war path but I would rather not do that and figure out how this all works. I do have another config that does work with 3 urls and app names BUT it boots the apps twice every time because docBase is inside appBase according to the docs. thanks, Dean
intercept and redirect to war file of my choosing(based on URL)
I have a url of this format http:
Where no matter what is equal to, I would like to be able to
direct the to tomcat/webapps/.war servlet. I have been trying
to do this with a valve on the engine hoping I could modify the request URL
before the tomcat engine decided which war file would service the request.
Is this even possible? I tried this with a generic filter and a forward but
that failed and tomcat said http://machine/ resource does not
exist when using the above url. If I use http:///, it
works fine and the resource exists when using a filter I deployed to
common/lib.
Below is the code I tried to use for that valve(since I could not get the
filter to work) in the engine to modify the request so that the url would be
http:/// and I was planning on sticking in
as a request attribute or something so the war file could access it. Any
ideas?

war filename in url. I want this to be different
I am trying to make a hosted service(with a few small apps) that companies can purchase.

How can I do this? Any good documentation on this? I don't want a war file per companyName obviously, but it is like I want to change out the default tomcat behavior where normally that would be mapped to the war file name.

Run it, and enjoy not being able to know what the heck went wrong
with your app like I have seen many have done on the posts already.
ie. Tomcat used to log the stack trace, but in 5.5 does not, and that
should be high enough warning level that config of logs don't matter.
Making the problem even harder.
On a second note, I have fooled around with logging and it works fine
in my app, and I could configure it and such(with 5.5) and my
logging.properties file in WEB-INF. I could never get my
servletlistener to log any statements(making the problem doubly hard).

Too true Tim. I've been on this list since the tomcat 3 days and it
never fails to impress me how many questions fall into one of three
categories:
1) Questions easily answerable by reading the docs. These are the RTFM
questions.
2) Repeats of previously posted and answered questions. These are the
"Search the Fantastic Web" (STFW) questions.
3) Questions so devoid of any useful information they are completely
unanswerable. The "it doesn't work, please help" questions.
Don't get me wrong -- there are some excellent questions with even
better answers. I stay on the list for those gems.
For those out there who are thinking about asking questions, here's my
advice:
1) Define you problem. The more detail you gather, the better for both
yourself and those that help. Specifically take a look at the logs and
consider the demands your webapp is making on the server.
2) If you are designing a webapp or library, insert effective logging
from the beginning. With both commons-logging and log4j, the log level
and classes being logged can be controlled from their respective
configuration files. The logging can be left in for production, just
reconfigure for error level logging and the debug stuff won't show.
3) Do a couple of searches on your favorite search engine even if all
you get out of it is the proper terms to describe your issue. In the
process you may also find similar posts to shed some light on your problem.
4) Take a look the online docs for the product you are using. Tomcat
leverages a fair number of other projects and standards. Those docs may
also apply to your problem. For instance in this thread,
Commons-Logging and Log4j project docs would help.
5) Don't be shy about posting a long email. The important things are to
be specific, show relevant code and complete log info. You may have
been staring at your problem for two weeks -- we haven't and need the
info to help.

I was never mad. sorry to give you that impression. I may have not
come across the right way in my first few posts, but I was just trying
to suggest a usability improvement.
I support 4 open source projects myself. I googled the hell out of
that question without finding an answer starting with what I was given
by tomcat. it wasn't much. The only reason I probably got through it
was persistence which most newbs I know give up. I expect users of my
open source projects to poke me once in a while with usability
suggestions, and that is all I was doing on this list. Sorry to imply I
was mad(I wasn't), just surprised at the reaction to a suggestion that
would help people who ran into the same situation.though hopefully
those users will find my solution postthough that could be a needle

take it a little personally. I have (casually) observed that the level of
'snippetyness' from the responder is inversely proportional to the quality
of the question.
On the subject of log4j.jar without log4j.properties, don't get mad at
Tomcat / Tomcat developers. Get mad at the idiot developers who shipped a
war file without a) knowing how to perform logging and b) performing basic
testing.
I help out when I can. If I'm not sure, but have a minute, *I* will often
STFW and/or RTFM to make sure. If I can do it, then so can you (the royal
you) and you didn't have to post. Ask intelligent questions, and you will
get intelligent answers. Show an unwillingness to learn anything, and you
will get snubbed.

Please don't think it's the whole Tomcat community Dean, there are some

being polite/arrogant about Tomcat - I guess from his privileged point of

wow! you guys sound pretty harsh when it comes to messages to help users
on simple mistakes then. I recently dropped in someone else's example app
war file that had the SAME PROBLEM.latest facelets. I could not even
give back information to help them debug the problem. It was standard
tomcat 5.5.16. It worked on 5.0 just fine. I now know that I need to unzip
their war file, remove log4j(and maybe even hope that they are using
commons, because if they are not, I may be utterly screwed). Then I need to
redeploy their app. I need to do all this because tomcat is unwilling to
give good helpful messages as to what is going on(as seen by all the other
posts that have had trouble figuring out their problems behind that error
with no reponses either.I was the lucky one and finally figured out what
was wrong). I can only hope others can find my solution post without
wasting too much time.

Well, if it's really that easy you should definitely provide a patch.
I recommend not wasting time, as I would refuse such a nonsensical
patch. The actual worakround is to learn how to properly use logging,
which seems to be a useful skill.

Re: tomcat 5.0 vs. 5.5? tomcat 5.5 has been bad!
my problem is solved. I was just trying to poke tomcat team in hopes that could put something in to help the next newb. later, I think I am jumping off the list nowjust too much email on this list, dean Markus Schönhaber wrote: Dean Hiller wrote: wow! you guys sound pretty harsh when it comes to messages to help users on simple mistakes then.

Also, Rémy calling such a patch - if there was one - "nonsensical" seems quite understandable to me since trying to work around anything a user can do to b0rk his webapp would bloat Tomcat's source code beyond all borders. OTOH if there are really so many people b0rking their webapps this particular way, then maybe this should be added to the FAQ.

Re: tomcat 5.0 vs. 5.5? tomcat 5.5 has been bad!
yes, but please look at the solution I found in previous post which
works WITHOUT stripping down everything. I think tomcat should fix this
by reporting something like this
log.log(Level.WARNING, "Application Errors will not be logged because
webapp has log4j but no config file", new RuntimeException("See
msg).fillInStackTrace());
The RuntimeException is to make it more noticeable in the logs. I mean
953 hits on googling is quite alot of people having trouble. Would be
nice to cut that number down with an easy log statement that tomcat
could add!!!

You can unzip it and copy the folder to tomcat/webapps and watch no
Exception get logged. Just the " Error listenerStart" message gets
logged an no more information is there. Google has 953 references to
"Error listenerStart" and many of them are "what went wrong with my app"
as there is no stack trace. I haven't found any posts answering those
questions though.
If I strip down this webapp to only contain the LifecycleListener - i. e.
remove logging.properties, remove the lib dir, remove filters and listeners
short of LifecycleListener from web.xml - the stacktrace gets logged in
localhost..log.

Re: tomcat 5.0 vs. 5.5? SOLUTION!!! figured out tomcat bug!
Found the solution. This is for all those posters who will run into this tomcat bug(well, at least, I consider this a bug). Basically, somehow, I had a log4j jar in my WEB-INF/lib folder. This would cause logging to work in some places and not others. It would sometimes work going to java.util.logging and sometimes would not depending on the siutation. Here is a posted example of it not working https://pro40.abac.com/deanhiller/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Downloads Just unzip and copy to webapps directory and notice not much information on why your servlet did not start! Erase the log4j jar and get plenty of information.

Re: tomcat 5.0 vs. 5.5? tomcat 5.5 has been bad!
I am still getting no log there.my localhost is empty! Other logs
get filled, I will trim all the fat off. Could it be that I am using
myfaces? BUT myfaces doesn't sit between servletContextListener and
tomcat, so I am really confused. Let me trim the fat(jsp files and
such). All I am doing is throwing a runtimeException. I will send a

Run it, and enjoy not being able to know what the heck went wrong
with your app like I have seen many have done on the posts already.
ie. Tomcat used to log the stack trace, but in 5.5 does not, and that
should be high enough warning level that config of logs don't matter.
Making the problem even harder.
On a second note, I have fooled around with logging and it works fine
in my app, and I could configure it and such(with 5.5) and my
logging.properties file in WEB-INF. I could never get my
servletlistener to log any statements(making the problem doubly hard).
thanks,

Re: tomcat 5.0 vs. 5.5? tomcat 5.5 has been bad!

I am assuming you have been using logger to log stack traces in case of
errors in tomcat 5.0. This was deprecated in 5.0 and completely removed in
5.5. So, If you have logger defined for engine, host, or context to record
the stack traces in a file in your application this will not work on tomcat
5.5
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/logger.html
"Please note that Loggers are deprecated in Tomcat 5.0 and removed from
Tomcat 5.5. Tomcat 5.5 uses Commons-Logging instead."
hope this helps.

On number 1 5.0 logs the entire stack trace, so you can jump to the line
number. On 5.5, no such stack trace in any file. Also, I searched a few
lists and many people had questions on what was wron when they saw that
error. I think the cause is the lack of informationit should at the
very least log the stack trace and does not.
I just used the latest facelets and it did not work, but worked on 5.0.
in fact, all the stuff works on 5.0 which leads me to believe 5.5 is
unstable, but I wanted to verify.

Anyone have much experience with running on these. On tomcat 5.5, I

ran into many problems
1. exception fron ServletContextListener.contextInitialized causes the
vague error of "Error listenerStart" with no details. Most people on
lists I have seen don't even know it was caused by Exception out of
that
method(Took me a while to figure out too)
Yes, it's an extremely myterious log message, as a
ServletContextListener is a listener for the context.
2. logging MyFaces logs was not working
Whatever.
3. Facelets example war files don't work in 5.5.16
It uses a bad method for descovering its config, if I remember well,
which is now fixed.

Error listenerStart solution?
I see lots of post on "Error listenerStart". I know what this is caused by. It is caused by your ServletContextListener throwing an exception on the contextInitialized method. I do not know however why it is not logging stack traces. It is like one will have to write a JUnit test to cal the ServletContextListener with a mock ServletContext to see what exception is being thrown. This is a real pain. Why is tomcat not logging the exception that is thrown anywhere? I am using 5.5.16. thanks, dean - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
not logging ServletContextException anywhere
All I get in the logs is this(which I know is caused by an exception in contextInitialized() method of my ServletContextListener) SEVERE: Error listenerStart Mar 26, 2006 6:36:25 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start SEVERE: Context [/projectservice] startup failed due to previous errors I have tried with and without my own logging.properties file in WEB-INF/classes. That logging.properties file works for my JSF backing beans, but not for this listener. I can't get a stack trace anywhere from tomcat. How do I debug if can't get any logs working? or how do I get the logs to work. This is a brand new installation of 5.5.16 and all I changed in the config was adding antiJARLocking and antiResourceLocking both set to false. I can send you my code and/or war file if you need. thanks for any info on this, dean - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
