Re: make the app as ROOT.war

Re: Can't read POST parameters in a Servlet
Ivan Venuti writes:
Hi,
I have this problem: from an HTML page I call a Servlet via a form like this:
form name=richiesta method=post action=servletName
input type=hidden name=in_file value=9177.doc
...
input type=hidden name=port value=8787
/form
In the Servlet I retrieve the parameters with request.getParameter(paramName);
With Tomcat3.x everithing goes well, but with Tomcat 4.0.3 I can't retrieve the parameters in the Servlet: every getParameter returns null, and printing all with
for (Enumeration namesList = request.getParameterNames(); namesList.hasMoreElements();)
{
String curName =(String)namesList.nextElement();
System.out.println(Param +curName+ value: '+request.getParameter(curName)+');
}
prints nothing!
I really can't figure out where to look for a solution. Any help is welcome!
-- Ivan Venuti --
Hello Ivan, in the examples i think their is a servlet called the
EchoServlet.java. this servlet simply prints the complete requests headers
and parms for both get and post and other info (meta data etc.). u could try
this a diagnostic tool. once the servlet is running all u have to do is
temporarily put: http://localhost: in ur form action to see the results.

Re: TC 4.1.12 auto re-deploy...revisited

By 'hot', I mean automatically have a new.war file re-expanded without restarting Tomcat. If I make changes to the app and create a new.war file, the only way I can get it to re-deploy is if I remove the existing directory under webapps then shutdown/restart Tomcat. If I delete the directory and move a new .war file into /webapps while TC is running, it's not automatically expanded. I've tried removing the app via the TC manager first, but it still won't auto-deploy. If I simply rename the .war file while it's in the /webapps directory, it's immediately deployed with the new directory name w/o restarting TC. In a nutshell, if I use the same .war name, it won't redeploy unless I restart TC. I'm using the out-of-the-box server.xml, where unpackWARs=true and autoDeploy=true for localhost. Is there no way to 'hot' deploy an existing app the way I'd like without restarting Tomcat? I've looked at the documentation and searched the archives/Internet. In almost all cases, the last step is to 'restart Tomcat'. My goal is to have automatic continuous-integration, including auto-deployment.

By doing a remove/install of the app, TC is running from the .war file vs. unpacking the .war and running the app from the subdirectories. This works, but (as we discovered) if/when TC is restarted, the result is the 'old' version of the app running from the subdirectory because we didn't remove it. Maybe we're trying to mix-match or doing something real unconventional (dumb), but the question/problem seems pretty straightforward: given a previously-deployed unpacked app called 'myapp', can Tomcat refresh the contents of the /webapps/myapp subdirectories automatically from a new .war file? The only way we've been able to do that is to shutdown TC, delete the /myapp directory and restart TC, allowing it to unpack the .war and re-create the /myapp directory structure. Based on what I've found, it looks like we should use one of these 2 methods for hot-deployment: 1) Run the app from the .war vs. unpacking it, and use remove/install. 2) Replace changed files in the /myapp directory structure, and use reload. Both work but I'm curious what method is typically used/recommended, or whether it's just personal preference.

Re: Mozilla crashes Tomcat.
Christopher Mark Balz writes: Mozilla 1.x/N6+ causes a devastating memory leak on Tomcat 3.2.4. In side-by-side tests, IE 5.5 causes no such leak, but Moz1.x/N6+ cause Tomcat to simply start allocating memory until the heap size limit is exceeded by about 20MB, resulting in an eventual shutdown of the JVM. I'm pretty sure it's not my code since the leak starts immediately on secure (ssl) session log-in to a static page (no servlet action whatsoever). If a Moz/N6+ browser is already logged in however, after restarting the Tomcat server it takes a request from Moz1.x/N6 to start the big leak that leads to an eventual JVM shutdown.

Hello Kevin, ant was designed w/ CLASSPATH in mind. namely, ant does not use
the environment classpath at all. ant defines classpath as part of a
pathelement attribute. look closely in ur build.xml file and u will see
something like this: path id=build.path. the encompassing end tag
complete the path id definition which will consist of 1 to many classes,
jars and their paths. also, tomcat needs special jars like: servlet.jar
found in a special directory: $CATALINA_HOME/lib. look closer and dig

2. I think my webapp is not recognized.

What I tried: after inital failure, I attempted copying my .class file to the example
directory and executing with localhost:8080/examples/servlet/MyServlet just as the
HellowWorld servlet is called in an attempt to eliminate possible causes. No luck
with this. (I had restarted Tomcat after pasting .class file.)
I also tried copying and pasting the HelloWorldExample .class file to my webapp
directory and it would not execute.
My webapp Directory (courtesy of WROX Professional JSP [which has not a few
typo's]:

and the URL that should activate it:
localhost:8080/ch03/servlet/com.wrox.projsp.ch03.app1.MyFirstServlet
I changed the laboriously long .myfirstwebapp. to .app1. both in the package
declaration of my .class as well as the call the attempted activation URL.

Hello Eric, i will have to admit that i'm using a tc version 4.1.12 but i
cannot fathom tc w/o a web.xml file. if u r a newbie then u r taking leaps
that r too big. u have crammed a lot of functinality into a jsp using the
tags. this is ok 4 someone w/ a lot of background but i personally don't
recommend this approach. 4 the time being if u r interested in the
functionality and not the implementation then allow me to suggest that u
take a more tiered approach to make ur jdbc connection and sql query:
1) lay off the tags untill u r more experienced.
2) what i mean by tier is put ur jdbc connection and sql query in a
separate class or bean away from ur web content directory. i use oracle
and mysql all the time this way. get the class bean to execute standalone
first b4 u put it into ur directory structure. an ascii directory tree
follows.
3) inspect ur build process. using ant and bulid.xml is highly recommended.
4) if u get step two above to work (separating ur web content from ur
process) then allow me to suggest introducing a third leg (in technogeek
this is MVC: model-view-controller). this third piece is a servlet or better
yet a director servlet that handles all requests from all of ur jsp's (1
to serveral jsp's). case in point: ur jsp requests ur servlet for db info.
the servlet requests info from ur class bean. the servlet sends the db
info and sql query results back to the jsp. in the long run much simpler and
cleaner not to mention the ability to scale this design pattern (more
technogeek). an example of my directory structure follows:
$TOMCAT_HOME
|
/webapps
|
/app_dir
/WEB-INF
|
/web.xml
$TOMCAT_HOME
|
/webapps
|
/app_dir
/WEB-INF
|
/classes
|
/app_dir
/\
/ \
/\
/web /beans
this is just one director. i have the directory separated to show the
different file contents: web.xml is always under /WEB-INF. under /web
contains: jsp's, html's, css's, etc. and under /beans contains: ordinary
class files w/ constructors and getter/setter methods 4 ur web objects.
also, the /beans directory or yet another aply named directory could
contained serialized classes 4 even more advance data movement.
this is the classic design pattern most developers have at least some
familiarity: http://java.sun.com/blueprints/patterns/ or better yet just
type: model-view-controler at the google prompt and start reading.
hope this helps, david.

Re: apache and tomcat and a webapp
Ron Smits writes: Let me try and be more specific :) First of all, if I get all to work the current setup with JServ will disappear and I am testing this in a test environment (Vmware) So let me see if I can chop my questions up in different parts The application is being developed using tomcat 4.1.12 running standalone. The development is going nice and contacting the application on localhost:8080/application is perfect. Question 1: I want the application to be the root of the tomcat. Meaning that in my test environment when I contact localhost:8080 I get the application and not the standard Tomcat page. I edited the server.xml and changed the Root context to point to the application: Context path= docBase=application debug=0/ I even removed the ROOT directory. When starting this up going to localhost:8080 will give me a No context configured to process this request If I go to localhost:8080/application my application is there. So how do I change this? Because the current server that needs to be replaced is running several domains in a virtual setup (and very nicely too thanks to apache). My idea is to remove the current 1.3 install with JServ and replace it with apache 2.0.43 that will run all the virtual hosts and will talk to tomcat for the web application (see question 1) that will be in a new virtual host.
