Java1.5 to 1.6

2008-06-17 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I have a web application that was working great with Tomcat 5 and Java 1.5 -
the server has recently been upgraded to Java 6 (still with tomcat 5) and
now some parts are not working and throwing null exceptions as pasted below.
I understand that the java executables should work properly but by the looks
of the error the problem might be with the servlet engines - would a
recompile of the entire app be in order? any suggestions?
Thanks
Kim

Re: jsp session values - setting and getting problems

2008-05-27 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
The starting point of the app is the user uploading a zip file the file is
processed and a summary of the results displayed (in the form I spoke of).

It's basically a form that doesn't have any parameters but displays a button
that goes to the report.jsp page when pushed (at least on my local system)
The report.jsp page is supposed to get the array, and 2 vectors from the
form page and print out further details in a report format.

By putting in a few statement I found out the report.jsp is returning true
to the session.isNew() function - I suppose that's why it can't see the
variables. The session timeout is set to 1800 seconds.

I have not been using URL rewriting and assumed it was using cookies but I
have not set up anything to make this explicit -sounds like this might be my
problem -  can you point me to some documentation that I could refer to?

There is no user login - it's basically upload a zip file and it processes
it and displays your results if your zip file contents are in the correct
format.
Thanks!
Kimberly

jsp session values - setting and getting problems

2008-05-27 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I have a jsp form that sets session attributes as such:
session.setAttribute("totals",totals);
session.setAttribute("failures",failures);
session.setAttribute("skips",skips);

and then the form directs to the report.jsp page as follows:


where the values are supposed to be retrieved like this:

String[] totals = (String[])session.getAttribute("totals");
 Vector failures = (Vector)session.getAttribute("failures");
  Vector  skips = (Vector)session.getAttribute("skips");


I have tried using getAttribute, setAtrribute as well as setValue, getValue
--- the setValue, getValue work fine from my local copy but when moved onto
a server with the same linux version and tomcat version (5 that is) it is
returning null values for the 3 variables.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

jsp and servlet to present zip file for download

2008-04-19 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I'm stumped and was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right
direction.
I have an html page form that contains a series of checkboxes and radio
buttons the form directs to a jsp page that processes the user's selections
to determine which files to zip up for the user to download. I have written
a servlet to do the zipping up of subdirectories according to the user's
selections however I think that I am not calling it correctly. When the user
hits the submit button - the resulting page is blank and the local_host log
says this:

 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve invoke
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
java.lang.IllegalStateException: getOutputStream() has already been called

The excerpt from the jsp file where the zip servlet is called is pasted
below along with the zipservlet - any suggestions?
Thanks!

permissions to read/write files outside webapps directory?

2008-04-02 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I've just deployed my webapp on the remote server (tomcat5 and red hat
linux) - everything is displaying properly but when the user uploads a file
for processing it is failing - looking in the log files it appears that
tomcat can't read or write files outside the webapps directory by these
error messages:

java.io.FileNotFoundException:
/home/kimberly/test/cases/85/85-settings.txt(Permission denied)

Permissions on this directory are readable by everyone and I thought tomcat
would be able to write/read  to the tomcat5/temp directory but that doesn't
appear to be happening either.

I want it to read 1000's of files from my home directory and when uploading
files to write them to the temp file in /usr/share/tomcat5/temp/test. This
works great on my local copy but isn't working on the remote server.

So from what I gather online I need to edit the catalina.policies file to
allow read/write access to the appropriate directories. Before I go messing
around with the policies file for the first time I wanted to double check
that this is appropriate as well as check the syntax.

// Example policy file entry

grant [signedBy ,] [codeBase ] {
  permission[ [, ]];
};


So syntax would be something like:
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/temp" permission
java.io.FilePermission, "read,write";
grant codeBase "file:/home/kimberly/test/cases"
permission.java.io.FilePermission, "read";

And then do I just restart tomcat?
Please any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: where to put config file in a webapp

2008-04-02 Thread Kimberly Begley
Great thanks - it's not actually in a servlet - just a java class of methods
so I guess I could pull it out of the java class and put it into the servlet
that is calling the method - if that makes sense - I was just hoping to
avoid that.
Thanks for the advice - much appreciated.

where to put config file in a webapp

2008-04-02 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I have a config file for a web application - currently the absolute path is
specified in a java class that's method's are read by a servlet to get the
info in the config file - I want to deploy the webapp on a remote server so
I'd like to remove the absolute path to the file but can't seem to figure
out where to put it so that the class can see it.
Currently it is in WEB-INF and the java file that references it is in
WEB-INF/src/java which is compiled using the -d ../../classes flag so the
resulting class ends up in WEB-INF/classes/tester/test (being in the
tester.test package) - I've tried different combinations and read online
that I could put the entry in the web.xml file? but haven't been able to
find what the syntax would be for that or how I would access it.
I'm using tomcat5 on a linux box.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Thanks for that I will check it out - I have switched gears and have been
trying to get a c:import to work - now I get the error printed in the middle
of the page saying that:

The requested resource (/test/home/kimberly/Desktop/testhtmlfile1.html) is

where test is the directory under webapps and the path that was passed to
the import statement was just /home/kimberly/Desktop...
Any ideas how to get it to stop prefixing the path with /test?

Re: displaying an image from outside the webapps directory

2008-03-30 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
Wasn't sure whether to start a new thread but my question is in regards to
the previous code.
As well as the jpeg I also have some html that I wanted to include in the
same page - so the html snippet is in a directory outside of the webapps
directory and when a user selects a link I'd like to include it in the web
output.
I was hoping to use the jsp:include tag to include the snippet (no html or
body tags) - I tried with the same code that Chris sent to open a jpeg -
thinking it might be the same solution for the html but have gotten an
internal error at the jsp include line. The servlet works great with a jpeg.
I've pasted the error below - I just want to check that it really would be
along the same lines to include html in a jsp as it was to include an image
(both being outside the webapps directory)
Or am I way off base?
Thanks

deployment questions

2008-03-26 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I've been devloping a web app on a virtual machine on my computer and I want
to move it over to remote server.
I understand that I
1) make a war file of my web app directory
2) add a context entry to the server.xml file on the remote server (Q1:
where in the server.xml file do I add this entry - it is a fresh install and
I do not see one there to start with)
3) copy the war file to the remote server tomcat/webapp directory
4) stop and start tomcat on the remote server

Q2: But then what is the process to see it online? everything I've read
online stops at this part - do I not have to make more modifications to see
it at a URL other than localhost?
Thanks

displaying an image from outside the webapps directory

2008-03-21 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I'm trying to make a jsp display a plot that is a jpeg in a directory
outside the catalina_home directory - I do not have the option of
putting it in the webapp directory (there's 1000's of them - my page
will just display one of them as selected by the user - along with
some other info) - how do I go about displaying it?
Thanks

regarding post about servlet crashing tomcat

2008-03-12 Thread Kimberly Begley
I have no idea what the problem was other than the servlet name I suppose
but I copied the entire servlet - pasted it in another file with a new name
and it works, created a new file with the old servlet name and pasted the
new (same) code back in it and it still doesn't work (and crashes tomcat) -
only difference is the filename.
Thanks

jsp calling a servlet (or at least that's the goal)

2008-03-12 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi,
I am stuck.
I am running tomcat 5 and am trying to call a servlet from a jsp.
My servlet class resides in WEB-INF/classes/packagename.
My web.xml looks like this




  UploadUnzipTest
  packagename.UploadUnzipTest


  UploadUnzipTest
  /servlet/UploadUnzipTest



and my jsp form calls it like this:


but when I click on the submit button to upload a zip file it says this:

HTTP Status 404 - /servlet/UploadUnzipTest
--

*type* Status report

*message* */servlet/UploadUnzipTest*

*description* *The requested resource (/servlet/UploadUnzipTest) is not
available.*

Apache Tomcat/5.5.26I have reloaded the app with the manager, stopped
tomcat, started tomcat - shut down the whole machine and started everything
up again but still nothing...
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

file upload servlet

2008-02-27 Thread Kimberly Begley
Hi - I'm trying to compile come java code to upload a file but am getting
errors - it looks like it can't find the javax.servlet stuff to import and
from what I've read online everyone talks about having the directory in the
classpath but I have also read not to mess with my classpath - I'm trying to
compile it from my catalina_home/webapps/appname/WEB_INF directory - does
anyone have any suggestions? I'm sure it's obvious but I just can't see it.


This is my java file:
FileUploadBean.java

package foo;

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class FileUploadBean extends HttpServlet {


public void doUpload(HttpServletRequest request) throws
IOException {
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(
new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("Demo.out")));
ServletInputStream in = request.getInputStream();

int i = in.read();
while (i != -1) {
pw.print((char) i);
i = in.read();
}
pw.close();
}
}

and my jsp page looks like this:

<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.lang.*" %>
<%--
 ResourceBundle bundle =null;
 public void jspInit() {
bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("forms");
  }
--%>


<%
TheBean.doUpload(request);
%>

When run "javac -d . FileUploadBean.java" I get this error:

javac -d . FileUploadBean.java

not reading my /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf file

Hi,
I'm running CentOS 5 with Tomcat5 (5.5.2.0) that came with the install.

dtomcat5 is not reading the /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf file - what do I have
wrong? Am I going about starting/stopping/getting versions for tomcat the
wrong way? Any suggestions?
