We're using the old javax.servlet namespace for compatibility reasons.Some of our jar files are re-used by different web-apps, therefore we placed them in the common classloader. Is it possible to convert them dynamically, just like how we do it for servlets in the per app WEB-INF folder, by using the following in the context file: <Loader jakartaConverter="TOMCAT" />
I have a similar situation. I run two sites on different servers. Today I upgraded to TC 9.0.56 on both without incident. (I do the upgrades manually from the tar.gz files). However, in keeping up with where things are going, I also run a development copy of the latest 10 (currently 10.0.14). Initially I ran the offline converter, but as my main applications are still running in production under 9.0.x, I don't really want to convert them from javax.servlet to jakarta.servlet just yet. My overall deployments are quite simple. I don't modify much on a stock download of tomcat - just server.xml (to add HTTPS support for my certs) and web.xml (to force HTTPS). Maybe 10 lines different in both files. My libraries for the applications are now stored in webapps rather than the common library area, but ALL my stuff still run javax.servlet. I found that by adding the single line " <Loader jakartaConverter="TOMCAT" />" after the <Context> in the main conf/context.xml file, everything auto-converts and runs perfectly. Frankly, for my purposes, this has to be the simplest solution.
