Glad this worked out. We should include these Tomcat issues in some sort of FAQ. I'll try to write something up. Gary Dmitry Beransky wrote: > > It works! It works! > > I sneaked a peek at the source code of the interceptor, and it looks like > its purpose is to fix the context class loade

Re: extension functions and Tomcat

It works! It works! I sneaked a peek at the source code of the interceptor, and it looks like its purpose is to fix the context class loader property of the request thread. So I guess I was on the right track with my suspicion, I just didn't know there was already a fix. Thanks a lot! Dmit

Re: extension functions and Tomcat

I never saw this arrive so I'm resending. Also, I should mention that it applies only to Tomcat 3.2.x running on Java 2 JDK 1.2 or higher. What version of Tomcat are you on? What version of Java? Gary Gary L Peskin wrote: > > Hi, Dmitry -- > > Can you please try this to help us out? > > 1.

Hi, Dmitry -- Can you please try this to help us out? 1. Be sure you have the following: as the LAST RequestInterceptor in your conf/server.xml file. 2. Place xalan.jar ONLY in ${tomcat_lib}/lib 3. Place your extension ONLY in ${web_app}/web-info/lib 4. Stop/Start Tomcat 5. Tell us i

RE: extension functions and Tomcat

Gulli, I will disagree on a couple of accounts, if I may, First, how a class loader finds classes is completely up to the particular classloader. For example, it is my understanding that in Tomcat 3.2 and prior, the classloader would do a postfix traversal of the loader hierarchy, that is, i

Re: extension functions and Tomcat

Gary, I'm including the environment info at the end of the message. However, with Gulli's help I was able to fix the problem. It turned out, all I had to do was to move xalan.jar out of ${tomcat_home}/lib and into ${web_app}/web-info/lib. I hope, this is an appropriate fix. Thanks Dmitry
