A day or two ago, I started doing some work in Win:C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\CompanyName thinking that because of the progress I was making on my Servlet that I should go to a folder that would retire some of the issues I was having because of path-prepended stringification that I could not gain control of. ( Shell activity ) The next time I did a slap-and-run code test for a few changes in throway code, the call to java.io.File blew out with an exception: access denied. By now it is faster for me just to write more code than it is to figure out what is going on so I move to C:\kyrfotqydlx and do a build and go.
Access denied. about eigth pm I start de-installing all the Java and do a bulky download of the latest NetBeans. 8-AM I run the installer and JDK-6 installer and so on, I have very carefull deleted all the files and directories where the prior work was, in including what is said to be disk defragmentation, but the entire project comes back up almost exactly like I had it. Okay, I know I have a lot to learn, all I care about is getting rid of the in-ablility to do file writes because I need to do Global Find/Replace on ( localhost:{4,} | servername.com ) back and forth doing scratch builds while I get my Servlet prototyped. the whole ${ .... } syntax is a great idea and on me scheduled studies, but right now I need to get something going and tracing throug dis-appearing directory strings is <em> really not what I need </em> Okay, fire up NetBeans and launch Tomcat in from the Project build and let NetBeans and Tomcat do as they see fit. I've been far enough down the the Highway to Hell to realize that will be the more efficient approach, but the build-error log ( whichever?... ) shows Tomcat will not let NetBeans authenticate. After another days work I have opened some message server stuff or someting in contol panel, taken off as much restrictions as I can because I am on a dedicated machine and as well put C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin\tcnative-1.dll in place as directed by a page I found in the Tomcat site going through google. I tried yesterday doing several web.xml things that one is supposed to do, apparently I am not the only one who has had an error in the general category. My favored editor will not do UTF-8 so I open one of the xml files in an editor that will, eventually retiring on a spin because of not knowing which web.xml I was in. I do an edit on C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache Tomcat 6.0.16\conf\tomcat-users.xml <tomcat-users> <role rolename="role1"/> <role rolename="tomcat"/> <role rolename="manager"/> <user username="tomcat" password="xdwkbsmiginjug " roles="tomcat"/> <user username="ide" password="uxflgqldcxyabqaotwi" roles="manager,role1" /> </tomcat-users> and still clean / build / run fails on passing the build to Tomcat, I cannot find the logs because of all the code folding, the error log showing in NetBeans is pretty much locked .. and crammed over to the top left of the display area. I have continued the day ( today ) without getting significant work on my primary project because of cannot think of what else to do. I know this is a verbose message, but all of the shell-hooking by xml has me totally stuck on what is a very important and central project: I am used to working on those with tenth of a second responses, according to the xml rfc the xml is not even supposed to have ( 0x0a | 0x0d ) but every one of the files does the machine just sort of bloats along and I need to know where to look. So I gave as much information as I could, thank you for your time. Will check back. { pw in post are throwaway } -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Re-install-fails-to-bring-up-Tomcat-from-NetBeans-tp18793994p18793994.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
