Who named Tomcat then? [Was: RE: Java Stands]
Thanks for the post, then who named Tomcat? Is there companion Jerrymouse technology? yong On 8-Apr-08, at 5:59 AM, Frank Fischer wrote: Hi I am learning java .

The story goes like this: We needed a name. We had been using oak (which was selected essentially randomly by me), and while the team had grown attached to it, the trademark lawyers ruled it out. We had lots of email debates about names, but nothing got resolved. We ended up in the awkward position where the #1 thing stopping us from shipping was the name. Our marketing lead knew someone who was a naming consultant (I don't remember his name, but he was great). We could neither afford the price nor the time of a conventional product naming process. He agreed to do something rather odd, but effective and quick: he acted as a facilitator at a meeting where about a dozen of us locked ourselves in a room for an afternoon. He started asking us questions like How does this thing make you feel? (Excited!) What else makes you feel that way? (Java!) We ended up with a board covered with essentially random words. Then he put us through a sorting process where we ended up with a ranking of the names. We ended up with a dozen name candidates and sent them off to the lawyers: they worked down the list until they hit one that cleared their search. Java was the fourth name on the list. The first name on the list was Silk, which I hated but everyone else liked. My favorite was Lyric, the third one on the list, but it didn't pass the lawyers test. I don't remember what the other candidate names where. So, who named Java? Marketing organized the meeting, the consultant ran it, and a whole pile of us did a lot of yelling out of random words. I'm honestly not real sure who said Java first, but I'm pretty sure it was Mark Opperman. There certainly wasn't any brilliant marketing mind who went through a coherent thought process. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Threads
Are you running on 32-bit or 64-bit JVM on OS X 10.5.2? If you are running java without -d64, it would be running 32-bit by default. Typicaly around 2000 or so is the thread number limit on 32-bit process due to its virtual address space limit (1 thread may claim 1MB of virtual space for stack). Running java with -d64 will invoke 64-bit JVM on leopard, and should increase the threads limit accordingly. The actual physical heap space is different story. It needs to increase only if you app/thread really use/allocate memory. But I am wondering why Tiger server did not have the issue. AFAIK, 64- bit JVM is only available on Leopard.

Running on Mac OS X 10.5.2 Server, the thread count tops out at approximately 2500. After which, the process is terminated. The heap size is set to 1 gigabyte. My question is how to increase the capacity of the JVM to handle more threads. Is the value of 2500 an absolute limit, or can it be modified by setting the thread allocation, increasing heap size or the use of another java option? As an aside, this issue did not occur with Mac OS X 10.4 Server. If you have time, what causes a process to generate threads? Any advice will be appreciated.

This is the exact route I was thinking. We have an XServe running 10.5, so I want to run in 64 bit mode. I think I am currently in 32 bit mode as I have not set any special flag to change the default. I have found the magic flag, -d64, but I do not know where to set this. We are using a start up script as follows: #!/bin/sh export CATALINA_HOME=$2 export JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home export JAVA_OPTS=-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:+MaxFDLimit -server - Djava.awt.headless=false cd $CATALINA_HOME cd bin ./startup.sh Where (and how) is the 64 bit flag set? Add to here: export JAVA_OPTS=-d64 -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:+MaxFDLimit -server - Djava.awt.headless=false Yong Thank you for your assistance.

how do you upload/download files on remote tomcat directory?
Hi, I am a newbie to tomcat. I can see that .war file can be deployed (i.e, uploaded and automatically expanded to the server folder) using tomcat manager. But how do you upload/download other types of files (.mp3, .png, .zip ) to the web app folder remotely? So this means deploying local directory to a remote tomcat. Do I have to setup a ftp server or something like that to do so? Or is there any commonly used way to upload/download files on tomcat using other servlet? Server Information Apache Tomcat/6.0.16 JVM 1.6.0_05-b13 Sun Microsystems Inc.
