Ok, I understand now. I have removed "servlet-api-2.3.jar" from /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/occa/WEB-INF/lib/. > If you find any others in WEB-INF/lib that appear to be > duplicates of ones in Tomcat's common/lib or server/lib > directories, the extra ones in WEB-INF/lib should be > discarded as well (ask first if you're not comfortable doing > so on your own). > There are a tub load of "jar" files in that directory. So I can look in /usr/local/tomcat/common/lib and any duplicates of those in /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/occa/WEB-INF/lib I will remove. However, I do not want to remove anything without knowing which ones first so I will ask: Am I thinking about this correctly? I appreciate your time and efforts assisting me. I am at the end of my shift so I will not be able to reply until tomorrow to any other posts on this but would appreciate the opportunity to continue with this tomorrow. I will look for any new posts first thing.

I do not have access to him in order to address these issues so that leaves me trying to explore this without really knowing what the heck I am doing. I know enough about this stuff to tell you things that are probably not necessarily so (i.e. the version of Tomcat we are running). So basically you are talking to a novice in terms of all of this. Prior to Monday things were working without any glitches. I do not know what might have occurred Monday to change things but something happened. I do not have enough knowledge to know what I am seeing let alone where to see it. Ughhh. So If there is a jar not loaded where should it be? How do I see it and/or go fix what may be broken in order to have it load properly? Why would it have not loaded on Monday when it appears it was properly functioning prior to Monday? Perhaps I am delving into things I can only make worse with my inexperience.

problem with data input
I hope I am able to explain this problem adequately. If I have gaps in my explanation let me know and I will attempt to clarify further. I know enough about Tomcat to be dangerous, as they say. I hope you guys might be able to help me so here goes. We have a MySQL database that we input case information into using a web based application written in Java and running in Apache Tomcat 5.1.5.15. On Monday one of our users was attempting to input some data into a specific section of the database but the data was not stored. This is, so far, only happening in this one specific area of data entry that inputs data into a specific table in the database. We receive well over 100 new court filings that occur every day. We have multiple users inputting data into the new cases and existing cases every day throughout the day. So most of the data input is operating normally. It is just input into this one area that I am seeing problems. It could be there are other areas with problems but we just haven't seen them yet. Whatever the case may be though, at present it is this one area where I am seeing the problem. I have been able to log into the database using MySQL Query Browser 1.1.6 and insert the data into the appropriate field for that record in the table. When I input that data I can then log into the web application, navigate to that case and see the entry showing up as I just entered it. However, if I try to alter that data from the web application nothing happens. I had attempted to send this to the thread earlier with attached copies of two logs for Monday and for Tuesday. I never was able to see my post on the thread so I am resending in the belief that my attachments may have been cause for the forum to block my post. If I need to post logs please let me know what is the best way to send my logs. Can someone assist me with finding out what may be causing this problem and give some idea of how to resolve it?

I have been looking through file after file all day now for any content that would refer the authentication to any server. I am finding nothing. Can you tell me what the lines of code might be written like for authentication of user logons? I am getting cross eyed looking at code that I really don't understand very well and am seeing nothing that would make me believe there is something in it that is using the Windows authentication for logon.

assistance with logon error
We have a MySQL database backend that is accessed through our website using Apache Tomcat that was set up before I came on board here. I am just familiar enough with this setup to be dangerous. Our problem is that whenever our users attempt to logon to the database this morning they get this error message: org.keel.services.authentication.mad.LoginHelper: singraham:Unable to access LDAP server at occadb Reason: occadb:389 I am sure that my actions last Friday have contributed to this problem but I need some help on tracking down where I can fix this problem. On Friday I demoted an old Windows 2000 Advanced Server from serving as a Domain Controller for our domain. I have a Windows 2003 server that was also serving as DC along with the now demoted server. I have been informed by the web application developer that this has caused this failure as he believes there was a line of code that was pointing to this old DC to acquire the logon information. However, he cannot recall where this file is or what it was called. I have been informed that there is a line in one of the configuration files for our website that needs to direct to the new DC for our domain and that once that line is changed to redirect to the new DC we will be able to logon. I have been searching for any configuration files in our web application that would have the specific line directing to the "now incorrect" DC. Can anyone provide me with information on where this configuration file may reside? What its name, location, path could be? Is there a standard location in a Tomcat environment where this type of configuration file may be? The web application is running on Apache Tomcat 5.5.15 on a Redhat AS 3 server. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Steve

I am looking at the ModelAction.java now. The programmer had created the application on a development machine and then transferred the working application to the production server. I have gone into that development machine and ran the locate ModelAction.java command. It returned several versions of that file in various locations. I am not sure exactly which one is the one that was ultimately used but I am able to see in that code. Regrettably I am not seeing anything in that code that I understand to be showing me where the specific input is passing to the database. I can provide information on the source code if anyone would be willing to look it over and educate me on it. Or, if there is a generic version of this code would anyone be familiar with what the code would be doing. Looking at this code it does seem to be generic in nature. Neither Michael Nash nor Shash Chatterjee was the programmer for this application so I am assuming this was a generic java file that was used by this programmer. This is in the comments section at the beginning of the script: /** * An Action that provides the glue between Struts and Keel. * * @author Michael Nash * @author Shash Chatterjee * @version $Revision: 1.24 $ $Date: 2005/05/26 10:16:39 $ */ If anyone has some further input on what would be the best way to examine the script I would appreciate any additional direction. > Tracy Nelson wrote: >Have you considered having a consultant come in and document the system?

RE: [OT] RE: insight into model.do
Yes all the code is here but I do not really know what I am looking at when I see it. In fact the source code for individual web pages and the associated commands in the code is what I am trying to track down. I feel that if I can find the location of the web page code, the struts, Java servlets, Java classes or whatever else was used in the creation of this application I can decipher how, where and why each part of the web page is doing whatever it is doing to the database. I agree with your statement below but asking you guys about Tomcat is currently my only real resource for assistance in learning what was done here. What I mean is, I have been reading everything I can online, I have a "Learning Java" book that I am trying to read and understand, I have enrolled in a Java class that is teaching me some basics of Java coding. But there is no one that I have any personal one on one contact with that knows Java or Tomcat enough to give me any input or explanation as to how things were created with this application. I am having to reverse engineer the code that was written, the Tomcat application and how it works, the database schema that it all ties to all while doing so without a good grasp of what I am seeing when I see it. I appreciate all of you guys and your input as it serves to slowly allow me to piece together how this all works. > > BTW, when you said your predecessor wrote this application do > you have the > source for this application?

http://172.16.255.100:8080/occa/model.do;jsessionid=9212C2FF4620210C92B6 2443EE97760A I am looking for some information on how I can track down and read the particular code on a web page. Above is an address to an intranet web page that our users use to input information into a database. I understand that /occa is a directory on the server 172.16.255.100 but I cannot find where the specific script for this page is and how the data is passed onto the database. In my limited understanding I thought there would be a file in the /occa directory named model.do but there is not. So, is this a call up to run some other file or script? My reason for asking about this is that I am basically trying to track down which field and table a particular field's data is passed to when a user inputs data on the web page. I have talked with several of you guys in the past and you have been very helpful. Although I have mentioned it before, I will say again that I am trying to manage a system that was developed by my predecessor and I have little to no information on how he developed this application or where it resides. I am pretty much left with trying to reverse engineer what was done. Is there a way I can track down how the user's data is captured and stored in the database? Thanks in advance for your help, Steve

New Tomcat shuts down thread
I have started a new thread concerning my shutdown problems as they were addressed in the previous "tomcat shuts down" thread. Below is the latest reply to that thread. Is anything flooding my server? I don't think so. That server only houses our MySQL database. Multiple users input data into it using a web interface. The web interface is the reason for the Tomcat set up on this server. I would guess that at any given time there could be a dozen users inputting at the same time but not much more than that. It is possible that it is hanging due to memory usage. The loop issue is interesting. What was the resolution for that? As I stated previously I manually stop and start Tomcat every morning. It is not that big of an inconvenience to do that in general but at the same time I would like to know why it is doing this and resolve it. There is something wrong with the application and fixing it would make things run smoother. Steve --- Andre Prasetya wrote: Hi Steve, Is there anything that flood your server with requests or trigger an infinite loop within the application ? I have similar experiences in 2 scenarios 1. A tomcat died every morning, Then we foundout that its flooded by requests at a certain time and there is a flaw at our design that permits only 1 connection for the flooded application. 2. An application causing the tomcat server to hang, exhausting our cpu resources to 100%, trigerred by Stop command from manager. Even after shutting down the tomcat, the process is still running and we have to manually kill the java thread.

I appreciate the prompt information everyone is providing on my inquiry to this thread. I truly do need advice from you on what I can do. I most definitely would like to hear replies to my query but I believe I am on the verge of highjacking Carlton's original thread and do not wish to do that. I apologize for highjacking Carlton's thread as he is the one with the original problem. I merely recognized that our system had a similar problem and wanted to ask the experts about my similar problem. I would like to follow the posts for resolving Mr. Brown's problem first. If, after Mr. Brown's problems are addressed my issue can be addressed I would be very grateful to all. Steve - This box has no other purpose than to run Anthill in Tomcat to build java apps.

I have already caused a crash of this system because I accidentally moved a .war file that was needed by the application to function. I was lucky enough to be able to get the .war file back into its appropriate location but that incident has seriously scared me into submission on this Tomcat stuff. I do believe I recall the developer stating a long time ago that he thought there was something going on with the memory that could be causing this problem but he was not sure exactly what was causing it. Is there anything that a "knows enough to be dangerous" administrator like me can do to find out the cause of this problem? Or am I destined to stop and restart this application every day from here on out? Steve From: Propes, Barry L sounds like you've got some thread hanging in there somewhere, but the logs don't indicate which one might be hanging? Also sounds like a memory issue; is it possible someone created some kind of servlet or app that manually controls Java's garbage collection? -Original Message- From: Steve Ingraham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 4:24 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Tomcat unexpectedly shuts down I have a similar problem.

For example, if I click on the "judges for retention" link on the left side of the main webpage the browser is directed to an address of: http://www.okcca.net/online/JudgeVote.2006.jsp I know that the "online" directory resides in the /usr/local/src/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/webapps/ directory and therefore the "JudgeVote.2006.jsp" file should be in that online directory.

RE: Moving Tomcat
I believe you are talking about my post. I still have my job thank you. That particular issue was with another server and dealt with a .war file that was moved. I was successful in getting the file in question back onto the server. I do have a backup of this server. In reference to my posted question, I appreciate everyone's quick input. You all are responding in the manner that I thought you would in that there seems to be a myriad of files to worry about with this move. As I posted, I am looking to copy everything in the /usr/local/src directory. So far I have not been able to see where anything associated with our website resides outside the /src directory.

Moving Tomcat
I have a website running with jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9. The server this website resides on is going to have to be rebuilt so I am needing to move everything off of it onto another server. I know very little about tomcat, ok, I really know nothing about tomcat. This website was created before I started managing this network so I was not involved in its construction. My question is this. I believe that all of the content for the webpage(s) reside in /usr/local/src/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/webapps. If I copy everything from /usr/local/src from the old server onto the new server will this capture everything needed for the website? Is there anything else I need to know about or that needs moved in order for the website to be accessible from the new server? Any information would be appreciated. Steve
RE: Tomcat errors
I would like to take a moment to thank everyone for their recent replies
on Monday to my queries on what you guys stated was a Java problem not a
Tomcat issue. I appreciate your generosity in the manner in which you
discussed my problem. I am not a programmer and know very little about
how Tomcat, Java, etc. are written. I have the task of managing these
systems but not the knowledge of the code they are all written in.
Being able to discuss this type of problem with individuals like
everyone on this list is very beneficial for my understanding of how
these systems are operating.
I have been able to successfully resolve my problem. To briefly explain
the issue, It turns out that the /usr directory had reached 100%
capacity on the server in question. This stopped Java from processing
any requests made to the database. The problem was further compounded
when, in attempts to free up space, I inadvertently moved from
/usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.15/webapps a vital file that was used to
create the appropriate directories whenever Tomcat is started. Once I
discovered my mistake I attempted to move that file back to the /usr/. .
./webapps location but in my attempts to do so that file was in some
manner corrupted and did not allow proper access to the database backend
that resulted in errors. Many had mentioned to me that if I had a
backup I could restore from the backup. It turns out I was able to
restore the original file from the development machine where the
application was initially built. Once I restored the original file
everything functioned normally again.
Again, I just wanted to send my thanks out to all of you. I read many
lists on various topics and find that some who answer questions can be
at times very curt and rude to novices like me. I did not get that from
any one who responded to me here. I am very grateful to you all for
your assistance.

RE: Tomcat errors
Sadly, I just checked my backup system. It is set up to backup the data
but not the application.
I am afraid I am in deep dodo as I know enough about Tomcat, Java and
Linux to be the cause of this type of a problem but not enough to fix
it. If anyone out there can talk to me and look at what I have I would
love to hear from you. I will be interested to hear back from anyone
that is intrigued by my problem tomorrow morning.
I want to thank everyone for your time and efforts,

Any chance you can restore the system from a backup? You'll be back to
square one (100% usage on /usr), but at least you'll know what not to
touch! Once your restore is complete, copy the log files to somewhere
that has space, then truncate them ("cat > logfile"). Then restart
Tomcat and your database (if necessary) and you should be in business.
If you can't restore from a backup, maybe you can at least view the
directory structure, to make sure you put everything back where it's
supposed to be.

RE: Tomcat errors
Thank you for your reply. I am afraid I am not familiar with JSP/Java/Servlet's at all. I was "playing" with it only in the context that I have a Linux RedHat server that had a /usr/ directory that was full. This caused a failure when our users attempted to access our database via their web browsers. In my exploration of the problem I discovered /usr at 100% on the server. So I attempted to free up space by moving some log files from the apache-tomcat/logs directory. I also attempted to move some files from /usr/src and from /usr/local/src/apache-tomcat-5.5.15/webapps. One of those files appears to have caused a separate failure of our web access to certain aspects of the database. My appologies if I am asking the wrong group about this problem. If there is any information anyone has concerning java I would welcome your input. If you can direct me to a java list I will ask there as well.

RE: Tomcat errors
This error was not occurring before. I am afraid I am not familiar with Tomcat enough to know the answers to your questions. How do I check View.jsp? I have been trying to revert the changes back by placing the files I moved back to where I thought they belonged. Whatever I am attempting to move back it is having no effect as I still am receiving the errors I mentioned before. I may have these files in the wrong locations. Is there a way that I can know which files should go where? As I know very little about Tomcat my fear is that I may be causing more damage if I make any other attempts to "fix" my mistakes. I am not sure now how I caused the damage already done nor how to correct it.
