Hi.

Take a look at this for where to put <Context> elements:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html

This is new with Tomcat 5.0 and is continued in Tomcat 5.5

Hello,

I am following the information here to add DBCP to my application.
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html

I am reading to add the <Context path="/DBTest ... from the above docs." The 
instructions say to ".

Configure the JNDI DataSource in Tomcat by adding a declaration for your 
resource to $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml.

Add this in between the </Context> tag of the examples context and the </Host> 
tag closing the localhost definition.



So cool, I opened up the server.xml, but do not see any existing context or 
host tags in it. Here is my server.xml file. Does anyone know where I put the 
Context for the DBCP stuff? Thanks,

        You can also enable an SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443 by
        following the instructions below and uncommenting the second Connector
        entry.  SSL support requires the following steps (see the SSL Config

        request.getRemoteHost().  This can have an adverse impact on

            So when running a cluster, only make sure that you have webapps in 
there
            that need to be clustered and remove the other ones.
            A cluster has the following parameters:

            className = the fully qualified name of the cluster class

            name = a descriptive name for your cluster, can be anything

            mcastAddr = the multicast address, has to be the same for all the 
nodes

mcastPort = the multicast port, has to be the same for all the nodes
mcastBindAddr = bind the multicast socket to a specific address
mcastTTL = the multicast TTL if you want to limit your broadcast
mcastSoTimeout = the multicast readtimeout


            mcastFrequency = the number of milliseconds in between sending a "I'm 
alive" heartbeat

            mcastDropTime = the number a milliseconds before a node is considered 
"dead" if no heartbeat is received

tcpThreadCount = the number of threads to handle incoming replication requests, optimal would be the same amount of threads as nodes

tcpListenAddress = the listen address (bind address) for TCP cluster request on this host, in case of multiple ethernet cards.
auto means that address becomes
InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress()


            tcpListenPort = the tcp listen port

            tcpSelectorTimeout = the timeout (ms) for the Selector.select() 
method in case the OS
                                 has a wakup bug in java.nio. Set to 0 for no 
timeout

            printToScreen = true means that managers will also print to std.out

expireSessionsOnShutdown = true means that

useDirtyFlag = true means that we only replicate a session after setAttribute,removeAttribute has been called.
false means to replicate the session after each request.
false means that replication would work for the following piece of code: (only for SimpleTcpReplicationManager)
<%
HashMap map = (HashMap)session.getAttribute("map");
map.put("key","value");
%>
replicationMode = can be either 'pooled', 'synchronous' or 'asynchronous'.
* Pooled means that the replication happens using several sockets in a synchronous way. Ie, the data gets replicated, then the request return. This is the same as the 'synchronous' setting except it uses a pool of sockets, hence it is multithreaded. This is the fastest and safest configuration. To use this, also increase the nr of tcp threads that you have dealing with replication.
* Synchronous means that the thread that executes the request, is also the
thread the replicates the data to the other nodes, and will not return until all
nodes have received the information.
* Asynchronous means that there is a specific 'sender' thread for each cluster node,
so the request thread will queue the replication request into a "smart" queue,
and then return to the client.
The "smart" queue is a queue where when a session is added to the queue, and the same session
already exists in the queue from a previous request, that session will be replaced
in the queue instead of replicating two requests. This almost never happens, unless there is a large network delay.
--> <!--
When configuring for clustering, you also add in a valve to catch all the requests
coming in, at the end of the request, the session may or may not be replicated.
A session is replicated if and only if all the conditions are met:
1. useDirtyFlag is true or setAttribute or removeAttribute has been called AND
2. a session exists (has been created)
3. the request is not trapped by the "filter" attribute


           The filter attribute is to filter out requests that could not modify 
the session,
           hence we don't replicate the session after the end of this request.
           The filter is negative, ie, anything you put in the filter, you mean 
to filter out,
           ie, no replication will be done on requests that match one of the 
filters.
           The filter attribute is delimited by ;, so you can't escape out ; 
even if you wanted to.

filter=".*\.gif;.*\.js;" means that we will not replicate the session after requests with the URI
ending with .gif and .js are intercepted.
The deployer element can be used to deploy apps cluster wide.
Currently the deployment only deploys/undeploys to working members in the cluster
so no WARs are copied upons startup of a broken node.
The deployer watches a directory (watchDir) for WAR files when watchEnabled="true"
When a new war file is added the war gets deployed to the local instance,
and then deployed to the other instances in the cluster.
When a war file is deleted from the watchDir the war is undeployed locally and cluster wide
