Do you know where I could get Tomcat 4.1.17 release? Denise Mangano Help Desk Analyst Complus Data Innovations, Inc.

If you are using a connector (coyote), versions prior to 4.1.17 had a bug with the coyote connector. Hope you can save you some of the time I just spent figuring these things out over the past week or so. -----Original Message----- From: Mike W-M [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 4:22 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: [OT] Apache-Tomcat mod_jk Denise, In application scenarios like this (and particularly because you seem to have multiple systems on the go) the thing that you need to consider is <i>transactions</i>. You need to consider what happens if there's a failure at any stage in the process, the aim being to ensure that there's no way you can: i) charge the customer when it looks like you haven't ii) charge them but fail to keep a record of it iii) not charge them but make it look like you have... iv) etc. Across multiple systems this can be difficult! (Particularly if there are flat-files involved - it's a lot easier to do if you're only using (transactional) databases.) Of course it's not actually necessary to work-around all the potential problems if the business are prepared to take the risk.... Apologies if you knew all that already!

I got Tomcat 4.1.12 itself back up and running, but without mod_jk installed. I haven't had a chance to get back to trying again today, but I will tomorrow. If I run into the same problems, I will post my entire server.xml file, and hopefully all you nice people will find something that my untrained eyes cant. Maybe a little background on my project will help determine exactly what it is that I need. I have a site running on Apache 1.3.27 (mostly HTML, some XML) on RedHat 7.3. This site, through a connector, is pulling information from a UNIX system. That part works fine. I get to the last screen, where the connection to UNIX is broken, but not before I am passed a transaction number. I then direct the user to an HTML form, where I collect all their credit card information. This is the point I am at now. What I need to do from here is collect the info and transmit it to the payment processor through an API call, which I will either use servlet or JSP. Then I will display an updated page that varies depending on what the response is from the payment processor. All this over a secure connection of course (which from what I understand will be another battle). I then have to send the info I receive back to the UNIX system to be updated. (If anyone has any experience in a similar situation or any input regarding this project it is definitely welcome). Hope the background paints a clearer picture... Will post tomorrow when I try to set up mod_jk again. Thanks!
