RE: deploying a war file and starting the application
Hello everyone, hope all is well with you this Monday...
I am trying to figure out why my web services do not work in Tomcat. I have not
found useful information on the web as most searches bring back information
from much older versions of Tomcat.
The following shows my web service code in eclipse
package com.surecomp.allMATCH.client.webservices;
import javax.jws.*;
import com.surecomp.allMATCH.client.IReasonCode;
import com.surecomp.allMATCH.client.businesslogic.ReasonCode;
@WebService(serviceName=ReasonCodeService)
public class ReasonCodeService implements IReasonCode {
@WebMethod
public String getReasonCodeData(String sSession, int iSiteId) {
IReasonCode obj = (IReasonCode)ReasonCode.newInstance();
return obj.getReasonCodeData(sSession,iSiteId);
}
@WebMethod
public String saveReasonCode(String sSession, int iSiteId, String
sCode, String sDescription, String sUser) {
IReasonCode obj = (IReasonCode)ReasonCode.newInstance();
return obj.saveReasonCode(sSession, iSiteId, sCode,
sDescription, sUser);
}
@WebMethod
public String deleteReasonCode(String sSession, int iSiteId, int
iExceptionId, String sCode, String sDesc, String sUser) {
IReasonCode obj = (IReasonCode)ReasonCode.newInstance();
return obj.deleteReasonCode(sSession, iSiteId, iExceptionId,
sCode, sDesc, sUser);
}
@WebMethod
public String approveReasonCode(String sSession, int iSiteId, int
iExceptionId, String sCode, String sDesc, String sUser) {
IReasonCode obj = (IReasonCode)ReasonCode.newInstance();
return obj.approveReasonCode(sSession, iSiteId, iExceptionId,
sCode, sDesc, sUser);
}
}
Eclipse makes the war file I am using. The first item is found by help via this
group is that url-pattern must start with a slash. Not sure why Eclipse would
not include the Slash as its required. So I added them and the system initially
appears to be working until I call a web service. The following is my web xml.
?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?

You are trying to deploy a class that is not a servlet. A servlet must
inherit from javax.servlet.Servlet. Are these supposed to be web
services that are deployed into some kind of web services container? If
so, you don't want to configure them in web.xml. Instead, you have to
configure them according to the web service container you are trying to use.
What web service container are you trying to use? You mentioned earlier
in the thread that WebSphere and WebLogic servers were working well.
Perhaps that's because they provide their own web service containers
while Tomcat does not?
When Tomcat starts each web service throws the following error. I understand
that loadonstart value of zero is default and not needed. Again, the
war/web.xml is generated by eclipse.

That's because ReasonCodeService (and presumably all your other
services) do not inherit from javax.servlet.Servlet.
Is it a requirement for tomcat that a web service implements Servlet?
Tomcat does not provide any kind of web service container. For that,
you'll need Apache Axis or any number of other fine web service containers.

Tomcat is usually pretty tolerant of that sort of thing but worth
checking anyway.

getRealPath() is not guaranteed to return a file system path. Also
writing log files inside the web app is usually a bad idea since you
lose the logs when the app is undeployed.

RE: deploying a war file and starting the application
Mark,
That’s for input.. the initservlet is just a means to initialize the
application. The writing of a log file is not to a directory within tomcat. It
is a directory outside of the environment. This information (the directory
location) is supplied via property file. Which I doubt is being loaded.

RE: deploying a war file and starting the application
Mark,
I made the change regarding web-app in the web.xml and same results. The piece
I find most interesting is the lack of information. If tomcat is not able to
load my class (initservlet) or an error has occurred in the class I would
expect some type of logging indicating an error.
Sincerely,

RE: deploying a war file and starting the application
I understand the issues and recommendations being made. But, possibly a little
more detail in the app is needed.
The web pages provided with the app are static and created in English. Upon
starting the web app new pages are created that are language based. When
deployed the war is always exploded so that access to the scripts, styles,
pages, etc. is available to the web app to make new ones and or modify existing
ones.
Data for the web pages is provided by means of web services where the client
browser IE/Firefox makes calls to web services for data (loading/saving) and
business logic.
Currently the same WAR produced by Ant build script is used in Websphere 7 and
WebLogic 11g without issue or modifications needed.
We have a customer that has asked me to support Tomcat (assume the cost of
Webshere/Weblogic is an issue).
Having provide a brief description of system. I have tried the following.
I have modified the InitServlet class (removed everything). The following is
the complete code of InitServlet
package com.surecomp.allMATCH.client;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.ServletInputStream;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
public class InitServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet implements
javax.servlet.Servlet {
public void destroy() {
}
public void init() throws ServletException {
System.out.println(Loaded);
}
}
I have compiled it and placed the class file into
C:\Downloads\tomcat-7\apache-tomcat-7.0.6\webapps\allMATCHWeb\WEB-INF\classes\com\surecomp\allMATCH\client
and I expected to see the System.out.println either on the screen or in some
log file. I do not see it anywhere.

RE: deploying a war file and starting the application
Well after playing with web.xml I got my app up and partly working in Tomcat 7. When I go to http://localhost:7080/allMATCHWeb the default page is loaded. My properties file is loaded and language based webpages generated, etc. Now my issue seems to be with web services. Again the web.xml contains the following for each webservice. servlet servlet-nameMessageServiceServlethttp/servlet-name servlet-classcom.surecomp.allMATCH.client.webservices.MessageService/servlet-class load-on-startup0/load-on-startup /servlet servlet-mapping servlet-nameMessageServiceServlethttp/servlet-name url-patternMessageService/url-pattern /servlet-mapping Now, these work for webshpere and weblogic, so I am assuming (bad thing I know) that the same would work for Tomcat.

All appears to be working. Glad to hear it! I have deployed a war file that currently works with WebSphere 7 and WebLogic 11g. The first issue I had was with url-pattern. It appears that Tomcat requires they start with a slash (/). I made the change and I no longer receive any errors while starting Tomcat. This is a spec requirement, not a Tomcat requirement. Other containers may be more lenient. The following image shows the startup window and that my war is being deployed. Within the webapps directory a directory containing my webapp is created. Images are stripped from posts to the list. Can you post it somewhere online and give us a link? Or, just copy/paste any relevant content from your screen? My initial servlet is called InitServlet and it is marked as load-on-startup (please see following image) . Ditto. I have two questions 1) If I type http://localhost:7080/allMATCHWeb in to a browser shouldn’t see this login.html page? I don’t… however I can access it by http://localhost:7080/allMATCHWeb/login.html You'll have to provide your web.xml for us to know when you need authentication challenges. Are you using container-managed authentication? 2) The load-on-start InitServlet class is not being executed as I have no logs generated or any other startup items handled, any ideas? Again, including web.xml should help. Note that using an InitServlet hasn't been recommended since the addition of the ServletContextListener interface a long time ago. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1DHsYACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBhSQCeNtR93FGfQecpwJ/n02ioUhpP x2MAn2WmpQ0vzJ3YAbrMQrE9SnMmOq++ =WYyb -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org This mail was sent via Mail-SeCure System.
