is the context automatically generated on auto-deploy?
In the deployer how-to at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/deployer-howto.html
the docs state that, for eploying on startup, at least, ... a matching
Context XML descriptor will be created unless one exists already.
Under the description of context descriptors, it seems to say the files
will be in the $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/ directory.
I dropped the xindice.war from the xml projects into the webapps
directory, and I can access it. (I did this twice, actually. First time
I was running Java 1.5 beta, and I dropped it live. This time it's Java
1.4 and I dropped it in while TC was down.) Xindice is expanded
automagically in the webapps directory, and I can access it, do queries,
etc.
I look in my $CATALINA_HOME/conf directory, and all I see is
Catalina\localhost\{ admin.xml, balancer.xml, manager.xml }
No other files or directories.
Nor can I see any sign of a xindice.xml or context.xml in the xindice
directory structure under webapps.
There is a web.xml under WEB-INF and contains the servlet and
servlet-mapping declarations, and security-constraints commented out.
Conceptually, that's context kinds of specification, but it doesn't look
like what
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/context.html
leads me to expect.
There is a system.xml under WEB-INF and it seems to contain application
specific declarations of the database and of XML-RPC. There is also a
configs/commands.xml which is very definitely application specific.
Clearly, neither of these is the context file.
So, does the automatically configured context actually get written out
anywhere? If so, I'm either looking for context in all the wrong places
or I've got this thing set up so strange it doesn't wanna do the right
thing.

I was running Java 1.5 beta, and I dropped it live. This time it's Java
1.4 and I dropped it in while TC was down.) Xindice is expanded
automagically in the webapps directory, and I can access it, do queries,
etc.
I look in my $CATALINA_HOME/conf directory, and all I see is
Catalina\localhost\{ admin.xml, balancer.xml, manager.xml }
...
I finally found a place where it says the app\WEB-INF\context.xml file
is the one _I_ am supposed to write for the app if it needs one.
But it looks like the context elements can also go in
app\WEB-INF/web.xml, and the documentation seems to mention web.xml more
than context.xml, which is a little confusing. (If I were confident of
my interpretation, I'd offer some diffs.)
I thought I saw mention of the default context specification buried
somewhere in a source directory. Wish I could find it, although it may
not turn out to be useful as an example of what should go in it.

jakarta-commons/daemon necessary for build?

Re: I've officially decided that JSTL is one of the worstthingsto ever happenWOT
I find your assertion that Jesus was a Software Developer a little challenging. Jesus is the greatest Software Developer that has ever Graced this earth. (So to speak.) Of course He doesn't usually use either Java or C, and, some of the languages He uses, I'm not sure we'd recognize as such. Not to draw conclusions on those sources.

Re: I've officially decided that JSTL is one of the worstthingsto ever happen
Oh, man, ... Ok let's settle this argument simple. Tonight, I'll ask my Christian Science friend to talk to Jesus, Why not ask Jesus yourself? Prayer is open to anyone, and is not limited to the night. and ask him the following: Jesus, if EL really DOES decrease performance significantly, and should not be used at all, please give me absolutely NO sign. However, if EL is a great thing and should be used by everyone, please give me a sign. Are you sure you haven't been setting us up just so you could say that? I'll admit, the 2LA for Expression Language causes me pause, but, ... Well, just in case you're serious, I'll mention Matthew 12, ca. 39. Might also mention Gideon and his fleece. I'll report to you in the morning and let you know what was God's opinion on that. I have an idea what He would say: Use the tools you understand. Work hard. Be happy. But don't insult other people by insulting their tools. And don't tweak people just because they use strange 2LAs for their runtime expression languages.

Ok, so you're saying that if my task is to dig a hole, Is your task to dig a hole? There are many kinds of holes -- wide holes, narrow holes, holes that go sidewise, holes that go straight down, holes that you fill with cement and build houses on, holes that you run subway trains through, ... and there's a tool whose documentation says used for digging holes efficiently and easy, it automatically means that it's good for that task? When I was a kid, I liked to dig holes with a hammer, just because I had my Dad's hammer but no wood and no nails. I dug some pretty good holes, but my Dad made me clean the hammer up and oil it so it wouldn't rust. I'd hate to dig a foundation with a post-hole shovel. I'd hate to dig a foundation in caliche with anything. But if I had to dig a foundation in caliche, I'd want either a pick or a jackhammer. (Dynamite's too hard to control.) I would not want to dig in the flower bed with a jackhammer. You ever thought that good ideas don't necessarily mean good results? Naw, you're putting me on! Good ideas ALWAYS get good results. At least, if you shovel enough manure into the fields. What if that tool is a vacuum cleaner? How would you dig a hole with a vacuum cleaner? I think I may have started out the door to do just that one day when I was a kid. I think my mother was glad she stopped me. You ever dig a hole with a water hose? Now, professional hole-diggers actually do use (very large) water hoses and vacuum cleaners. That is, some sludge belts use a wet vacuum system to keep the sludge belts clear. (Maybe I should've been a civil engineer.) I mean that's what its documentation says... Then, if the documentation is not lying, it must not be the same kind of vacuum cleaner you'd use in the house.

Tomcat (currently) doesn't build with 1.5. You have to use 1.4 to build it.
However, it runs fine on 1.5 once built.
That's what I needed to know -- I either set up a 1.4 environment to
build in or I just download the binary.
Tomcat has progressed so far since I used it last I can't figure out
which way is up when I'm looking at the distribution. Well, not really,
but there sure is a lot of stuff in there.
Hmm. From a quick glance through the library, it looks like trying to
share Xalan, Xerces, Log4J and all those guys with my main copies is
going to be an uphill struggle.
Maybe I'll just get the binary, at least for now.
Thanks.

Tomcat context problem
Hi, I'm a new user on the mailing list, so forgive me if I ask just stupid questions! I'll try not to ;) I'm trying to load my app into tomcat, but I've got a problem as soon as I boot (see exception attached in the end). Looks like tomcat can't find a jar file that actually exists and is indeed in the place it looks for! I'm loosing it as I don't know where else to do in order to get it going! The jar files tomcat is trying to load are in the usual /WEB-INF/lib/something.jar places. On a small note that can be helpfull, the application root has 2 dirs named Java Content and Web Content. The real app struct is inside the Web Content dir, and it has been set in the config xml as the docbase. javax.servlet.ServletException: Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB-INF/lib/IBSComp.jar at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar(ContextConfig.java:930) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScan(ContextConfig.java:868) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.start(ContextConfig.java:647) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:243) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.java:166) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:3568) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.start(StandardHost.java:738) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine.start(StandardEngine.java:347) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService.start(StandardService.java:497) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer.start(StandardServer.java:2190) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start(Catalina.java:512) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.execute(Catalina.java:400) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.process(Catalina.java:180) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:203) - Root Cause - java.io.FileNotFoundException at org.apache.naming.resources.DirContextURLConnection.getInputStream(DirContextURLConnection.java:344) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.URLJarFile.retrieve(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.URLJarFile.getJarFile(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarFileFactory.get(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarURLConnection.connect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarURLConnection.getJarFile(Unknown Source) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar(ContextConfig.java:906) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScan(ContextConfig.java:868) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.start(ContextConfig.java:647) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:243) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.java:166) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:3568) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.start(StandardHost.java:738) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine.start(StandardEngine.java:347) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService.start(StandardService.java:497) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer.start(StandardServer.java:2190) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start(Catalina.java:512) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.execute(Catalina.java:400) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.process(Catalina.java:180) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:203)
Error-Page configuration problem
I am using Tomcat 4.1.18 behind Apache 2.0.44 with mod_jk on a Win XP Pro machine. I have been developing a JSP application for several months. The application is close to initial release and I decided to add an error-page directive to web.xml to temporarily mask and notify us of any unexpected lingering exceptions. Whenever I add the following to web.xml I get a Parse Error from Tomcat with a list of valid tags for web.xml: error-page exception-typeorg.apache.jasper.JasperException/exception-type location/error.jsp/location /error-page The location reference error.jsp is a very simple valid jsp error page. Strangely enough if I remove the exception-type tag and the location tag Tomcat notifies me that the error-page tag is incomplete and tells me the valid contents of an error-page tag. But when I try to use it properly Tomcat acts as if its never heard of the error-page tag. I have also tried using error-code500/error-code instead of exception-type but that causes the same problem. I've searched the bug database and mailing list and haven't found any mention of this problem. I also tried using a page directive defining an error page but I still received the default exceptions I had planted in a test page. I'd rather use the web.xml way if possible anyway. Any ideas?

setting home directory of users in win32
Hi to all! I have been using tomcat for linux and setting up users home directories to have a URL of the form http://localhost/~user works fine. Here is the problem. I did the same thing with W2K. I changed server.xml by cut and pasting the tag needed so that the home directories of the user will have the form http://localhost/~user to work. But when I tested it using a HelloWorld servlet, it gave me a no servlet error. The html files worked fine in the public_html directory. I have a plain web.xml file in the WEB-INF directory. I copied the contents of the examples and placed it in one of the accounts I am configuring and it worked fine. What am I missing? This is what I did. 1. I created c:\home folder for user directories. 2. I created the following c:\home\me, c:\home\me\public_html, c:\home\me\WEB-INF\, c:\home\me\WEB-INF\classes, c:\home\me\WEB-INF\lib and c:\home\me\WEB-INF\web.xml. 3. My web.xml is contains web-app/web-app. 4. I run tomcat and did http://localhost:8080/~me/index.html and it works. 5. I made HelloWorld.java and did http://localhost:8080/~me/servlet/HelloWorld. Restart tomcat. 6. Tomcat gave me a no servlet error. 7. I copied HelloWorld.* to jakarta.../webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes and did http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorld and it works.

NNOT Red Herrings (Re: [OT] free Database with Transaction (Sorry for the noise))
This thread brought to mind something in Perl's Artistic License. It also reminded me that the arguments against the GPL are all red herrings. Anyway -- Seems pretty straightforward to me: If your application is not licensed under GPL or compatible OSI license approved by MySQL AB and you intend to distribute MySQL software (be that internally or externally), you must first obtain a commercial license to the MySQL software in question. http://www.mysql.com/products/licensing.html Yeah, that does sound confusing. However, applying internal/external to the verb distribute would almost seem to be an attempt to extend the GPL. The GPL does not talk about internal distributions, nor does it distinguish between commercial and non-commercial uses. While MySQL does emphasize the benefit to the customer in buying licenses and support, they aren't trying to weasel around the GPL. Deployment is specifically described by the FSF as being a seperate issue from distribution, and is not restricted under the GPL unless a particular deployment requires distribution. (Do you have to install GPLed software X on all the workstations for your app to run? That sort of deployment would be a distribution, even if it were internal only. However, if the deployment does not involve modifying or incorporating said GPLed software X, the GPL would place no restrictions on it. And if deployment only requires said GPLed software X to run on the server, and all access is via some other means, then there has been no distribution in the deployment.) IIRC, the Artistic License talks about linking as a determinant of whether one program incorporates another or not. I seem to recall the FSF trying to talk about linking in some of their previous licenses or FAQs, but the present license and FAQ do not seem to do so explicitly. http://www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#MereAggregation MySQL AB seems to be waving their corporate hands at the issue in item 3B on the page you referenced. (If you talk to un-altered MySQL only through a third-party, non-GPLed, driver, your software should be clear of GPL requirements.) And then we get into the fuzziness of interpreters. Perl, being under the Artistic License, can link to the driver without License conflicts, even when distributed. Source code is considered through the Artistic License to be input to Perl, rather than some sort of means of incorporating Perl's library. So, if your program is entirely in Perl and only talks to MySQL through any driver, that also clears you of the GPL requirements. The Apache license does not appear, at first glance, to provide the same sort of buffer, if that's relevant. I think it isn't. Avoiding the payment of money is not the point. Even if you're using the stripped-down free-means-free-or-else! license that openBSD advocates, you really should know what you're using where and under what terms. If you don't, you don't really know where to turn when things fail. Free software should not be used as an excuse to abdicate responsibility. It's exactly the opposite, and if you understand that, you understand the GPL. -- Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [OT] free Database with Transaction (Sorry for the noise)
Just thinking out loud -- ... - yes, i did check the mysql website, but rely on (maybe outdated) information of computer magazines, that labeled the transaction support very limited. ... almost free (for non-commercial use): - Mysql (http://www.mysql.com/) connectors: - MySQL Connector/J (http://www.sapdb.org/7.4/sap_db_jdbc.htm) - supports jdk 1.4 - supports jdbc 3.0 - JDBC Type 4 Driver That almost free (for non-commercial use) makes me wonder if your information might be old, or perhaps inaccurate. It's GPL, so it's free in the GPL sense, and has been several years. If you have concerns about restrictions on your license to your customer, contact them and describe what you're doing. Last I recall, querying the database through a driver was not considered linking directly to the API, so the so-called viral aspects of the GPL would not be invoked. You might want to ask. As an opinion without experience, giving the customer their source code under a GPL compatible license does not seem all that unreasonable to me. And, if I'm making much money on a project, it would not seem unreasonable to buy a license for MySQL that would allow the use of a license on my code not compatible with the GPL. MySQL version 4, which is the version said to have full transaction support, has now passed the beta stage. Some people say MySQL beta is better than Microsoft final, but I don't have enough experience to say. Like I say, just thinking out loud. -- Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [OT]JSP defense - can you point me in the right direction
Denise -- ... This team includes members that I know for a fact are capable of maintaining other technologies. How do the other team members feel about this? Are you trying to sell both them and management at the same time? If you know C and/or Perl (I assume you would choose one of these to write your CGI app) PHP is not hard to pick up. ... Honestly, I don't. I toyed with CGI scripts (Perl) for a fake website I made for a course a year ago, and that is the extent of my experience with it. While I don't doubt that I can learn it enough, if not more, to complete the project, it is definitely not my preference. And judging by the responses I've received so far it is not the way to go. Well, anyone who can write Perl can write PHP. (And anyone who writes bad Perl will likely write bad PHP.) There would be no learning curve to go to PHP. Well, almost none. Hashes and arrays are not as visible, and some people will get their backs up about that. Mod_php does induce some style changes. The object syntax is different, but who of your development team has ever touched a Perl object? (And they should, before the make too many decisions.) And speaking of modern perl, have they spent much time nosing around perl.org? Are they aware of Perl6 and Parrot and the changes coming down the pike? Good stuff, but they do need to be aware of it if they plan to go with Perl. Perhaps your managers should read a book called _Perl_for_the_Web_, by a guy named Radcliffe. He does promote Perl as a basis for solutions, but his explanation of why CGI does not work in production should be understandable by your managers. He also provides some direction about where to head when they discover that their collection of scripts has become unmanageable. A few more facts should help them make better decisions, at any rate. -- Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Pick a Platform - Linux, Windows, Unix, Solaris...
If you could pick any platform to run Tomcat on what would it be. I enjoy playing around with Tomcat on my iBook (updated to 10.2.3, finally). (In other words, Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, *BSD, HP-UX, AIX, etc., are all UNIX of one sort or another. There are open source JVMs for the *BSDs, but I don't remember what versions they are up to at this point. I think there are a few people running Tomcat on the *BSDs.) Also what version of Tomcat is now the one to go with? I.e. stable, reliable, etc. Browse the recent archives. There are several listed in the Tomcat pages on the Jakarta site.

Tomcat4 on port 80, standalone, unprivileged user
I've been searching for some time for info on how to run Tomcat4 standalone on port 80. It seemed overkill to involve apache just for this, and running tomcat as root was just plain scary. Changing connector port without any other measures just renders a java.net.BindException: Permission denied:80 I've not seen anyone mentioning the below solution before, sorry if I missed it, but this is how you run Tomcat4 on port 80 standalone without involving apache and without running it as root, with as little tinkering as possible: (this solution is probably only valid for linux, and possibly only after an rpm install of tomcat) * Change connector port to 80 in server.xml. * Download, make and make install authbind. The source tarball can be found at http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/authbind.html * Run touch /etc/authbind/byport/80 chmod 500 /etc/authbind/byport/80 chown tomcat4 /etc/authbind/byport/80 * Open /usr/bin/dtomcat4 in a text editor. Around line 205, on the line that calls $_RUNJAVA to start the tomcat process, insert /usr/local/bin/authbind --deep so the line reads /usr/local/bin/authbind --deep $_RUNJAVA * Start tomcat as usual .. and voila.. The processes still run as tomcat4, and you can access your tomcat server without having to add :8080 in the url. The above is *a* solution, I'm not saying anything about whether it is a *good* solution. It seems to work though. The solution was tested with Mandrake 9.0 and Tomcat 4.1.

Re: Newbie cookie question
The problem is that it works perfectly on WebSphere 4.x, but not Tomcat ** for the other webapps**. The worst case would be a bug in WebSphere, the production server, that gets fixed someday. This looks right, but am I missing something?--- Cookie aCookie = new Cookie( MY_COOKIE_KEY, cookieText.toString() ); aCookie.setPath( / ); // deliver to all directories not just issuer. aCookie.setSecure( false ); aCookie.setMaxAge( -1 ); // per-session cookie, not stored on disk theResponse.addCookie( aCookie ); Thanks, Joel Hello joel, Look into how the cookie path is set. I think, by default, it is set to the current context of your app, not the whole server. You will need to override this behavior. See the servlet api for details. As far as the cookie disappearing upon browser close, this should happen unless you specifically set an expiration date for the cookie of sometime in the future. Note that *all* open browsers need to be shutdown in order for the cookie to go away. If you have 2 browser windows open and only shut one down, the cookie will still exist.

Cannot send cookies between webapps on Tomcat 4.1.12

I can reach partners through URL: http://mymachine.ny.mycompany.com:8080/partners;, buildings through URL: http://mymachine.ny.mycompany.com:8080/buildings;. Partners creates a cookie: ...

Re: HTTPS to HTTP
Thats is my exact situation. The sysadmin section of teh site is 100% https. but the on the user side there is nothing that sensitive and little harm they could be cause stealing someones session. It would not be worth going to the trouble of stealing the session for the benefit you would get. But how does the intruder know in advance that there is nothing valuable on the site? And what about the damage that could be done by a l33t h4x0r d00d just out for a joy-ride?

Re: HTTPS to HTTP
I agree with you 100% but there can be a simple solution to the problem that you just raised..and that is that a new session id is created and mapped in some table when moving from https--http this way user B can not get access to the admin page. Two things you'd have to be really careful about -- Never let the https session id be exposed in an http session. (How do you do that? Tested it under all operating contexts, every browser?) Never let a switch back to https occur without re-verifying the user. (Can this be done seamlessly?) If you used two distinct (sub)domains (for instance, http://user.myapp.com and https://secureuser.myapp.com) and were really careful about the cookie settings for the session ids, might it be workable? Would it require customizing Tomcat?

I'm thinking that shipping images raw and text under https might help those who are concerned about performance. Would this open other holes besides the booby-trap I mentioned below? Would shipping the images http open the entire transaction to snooping? (This could leave a trap for obscurationists who send confirmation codes as images, of course.)

Servlet init() in 4.1.12 problem
I seem to be having an odd problem getting access to a JNDI resource in a servlet init() function under Tomcat 4.1.12. There is a similar bug listed for 4.1.7 (#10948) as well as other bugs like 14461 and 14367. My problem is that init() is getting called, and it can get the InitialContext(). It can't, however, access a JNDI database definition. I use the init() method to populate some static data with a call to the servlet allowing it to be updated if we make a database change (that is fairly rare, but could happen). The strange thing is that the servlet works just fine if I call it (accessed via doGet()). The data access code is exactly the same in the two methods (init(), doGet()). The init() function worked fine under 4.0.3. Does anyone do anything like this? My guess is that the environment context isn't yet populated when the init() function is called--which seems like a bug. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: Where should i put dynamically generated graphics
If you want a servlet to write out a GIF stream take a look at this:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-05-2000/jw-0505-servlets.html
Basically, you have a seperate servlet that generates the GIF. Then
your real page has a IMG tag that references the image display servlet
which sends back a GIF encoded stream.
And of course Google is your friend:

A temporary storage directory is required for each servlet

Servlet

The

associated with the attribute must be of type java.io.File.
Then, using a servlet mapping request the generated image and

I guess that you could make another dir writable to the server,

Re: Tomcat and Crystal Reports (Urgent)
This is true, but I think it requires 9 (the Java SDK that is). There was also an ad in the recent Java Dev Journal about it. From the the crystal website: Java, .NET and COM SDKs - A rich set of Java, .NET, and COM APIs let you control how end users interact with reports and modify them at runtime. Automatically turn on advanced options including highlighting, zooming, and text searching. Tight integration with Microsoft Office lets end users search on report data and export the results to Microsoft Word, Excel and HTML. Not sure how it integrates with servlets, but if you can make an applet you should be able to pull the image it generates to display on the web (we do this for some dynamic graphs with raw Java 2D stuff). -J Joel Sather email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: 651-649-5789 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/29/02 04:49PM They say that new version 9.0 is fully supporting java.

RE: Routing With tomcat
Well, there are other options. There are a ton of port mapping facilities out there (check the Linux firewall toolkits) that could map this. Also, if you are just looking to take all requests to mail.server.com and have tomcat do the calls to another, even farther back-end system then I'm sure you could build a servlet to handle that pass through. I've done this before to pull an HTML page from another internal server via the external servlet (I didn't agree with the design, but they wanted it done), and it worked just fine. You set the server to recognize mail.server.com and then setup a virtual host in tomcat to map to the specific relay webapp. In fact if you can get Apache working on the main server there is no real reason you couldn't use that to provide a link to the other server--provided it had a tomcat instance. It is similar to loadbalancing across multiple servers. So, there are about 10 different ways to do this, pick the one that works best for your network architecture. I agree with the others, though--it would be better to have the router doing the mapping. Some routers/firewalls are even smart enough to do exactly this--even if host1 and host2 have the same IP the firewall/router can map them to different servers/ports on the fly. -Joel Joel Sather email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: 651-917-4719 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/25/02 12:35PM Tomcat isn't a router. What you're trying to do isn't really a tomcat question, it's more a general web server question, or router question. If you don't have another ip address then I really recommend that you just map another port on the router to the other webserver. That's the simpliest and easiest solution and it's what routers are made to do. --mikej -=- mike jackson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Nicolas Brasseur [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 10:24 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Routing With tomcat So, you confirm Tomcat is unable to re-route HTTP request based on the virtual hostname ?

All you need to do is set the correct IP addresses for the two hostnames and you should be good to go. Your tomcat server should never see requests for mail.brol.be if they are separate machines. If they aren't separate machines, you can't run more than one thing on port 80, unless you want to setup virtual hosting with two separate URLs.

Re: New to Tomcat/Mac OS 9
in the same round... And why use Tomcat 3, when Tomcat 4 is so good? BTW: it's so difficult to find ANY hint or tutorial on how Tomcat 3 needs to be configured. At times I hate living in a fast moving profession... The user's guide at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-ug.html is a good place to start. And don't forget the on-line docs in the distribution. You have to get the server running to run the examples, but you can browse the docs before you get the server running. Those docs have the information you need. If getting to the docs on the jakarta site is too much trouble and you need to browse the docs before you get Tomcat running, you might try one of two things. One, use gnutar (I think -x is the extract flag?) to extract the tarball in a directory you can see from the Finder. Even if you want to run it from a part of the tree that you have to use the terminal app and a shell to see, unless you're really tight for disk space, having it unarchived in two places won't hurt. Since it doesn't run like a regular Mac application, there will be no question about which copy is running. The other thing you might try is to reboot in Mac OS 9, but you'll need something to set the file types to TEXT, or your browser may refuse to open them. Probably the first idea will be easier. I love OS X! Martin As as long, LONG time Mac user, it's a mixed feeling. I know that there are a ton of improvements and advantages, but somehow I managed to wait until now. Go figure... As of 10.1, I no longer really noticed much. But I have been a UNIX user about as long as I've been a Mac user. I do miss a few things that didn't show up until fairly late, like turning folders into tabs at the bottom of the screen. Sure, you can put folders in the dock, but it does feel a little different. Sort of like stepping back to System 7, but in a parallel universe. You'll probably want to put the terminal app in the dock. Then, one of the first commands you need to get used to is man. (Unfortunately, apropos is not yet supported.) man cd man ls man man man gnutar man vi Start reading the manual pages now, and don't start setting any deadlines until you've got Tomcat running. You're looking at about five to forty hours to get started with Mac OS X, where you'd be looking at complete unknowns with Mac OS 9. (Whole man-years maybe.) Oh. If you've got web sharing (apache!) running, you'll probably want to shut it down while you're getting Tomcat running. Apache is a little bit of a pain, because you'll be using the finder to start and stop it, but you'll be using the shell (terminal app) and vi to edit the configuration files. -- Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Mac OS X, Tomcat 4.0.4, MySql configuration denies access
Been wondering some things about this thread -- Jack, what UNIX user owns MySQL? Likewise, Tomcat? And what UNIX user are they each being run by? I continue to get the sql exception using the above software and mm.mysql 2.0.8 drivers. MySql is 3.23.51 downloaded from entropy.ch I have granted permission to the program for both localhost (a guess) and localhost.localdomain (which I needed on wintel and linux). While roaming with google, someone (http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?s=threadid=7737highlight=mysq l+java) solved (I think) the same problem by making a new root user with host = % (I confess: I have no idea how to do that!). I tried making my program (the name I use to open a connection to mysql) a Mac User. Nothing changed. Do you mean to say that you tried adding a UNIX user called mysql? Did use chown on the mysql distribution to change the user/group appropriately? Did you set up your sudoers and use sudo to run mysql? I see several candidate avenues of inquiry: tomcat 4.0.4 has problems with this configuration (I think very unlikely) mm.mysql 2.0.8 is the wrong driver for 3.23.51 3.23.51 (being a very recent release) has some problem my configuration of the database with permissions is not consistent with OS X needs (works fine on wintel and linux, however).

Re: Mac OS X, Tomcat 4.0.4, MySql configuration denies access
Thanks, Joel. You're wondering about things I started wondering about myself, today. I suppose it's worse than that, however. I just found out that, while tomcat does seem to want to load my servlet, it will not load any of the examples. If it doesn't load the examples, I'd be surprised if it really wanted to load your servlet. (I have been surprised before.) Usually, if it doesn't run the examples, it isn't running, and what you're really doing is serving the Tomcat example pages from apache. Is apache running? That could be getting in your way. Check the web sharing (ohwhatisthatcalledinEnglishMacOSX?) control panel (???). It's there with file sharing. Interpret web sharing as meaning apache. Even if you had no problems getting apache and Tomcat running together on the Linux and Windows set-ups, you probably want to shut it down while setting Tomcat up on the Mac. If apache is not running, and your servlet seems to be trying to run, have you perhaps edited the examples context instead of copying it and making a new context for your servlet to run in? The404 message says the requested resource is not available, but the log says it's doing a class not found problem on a filter. I just downloaded tomcat 4.0.1 (because that's what I'm running on linux) and it's doing the same error on the mac. I found some stuff with google that suggests I not put anything specific to tomcat (except, perhaps, the specific servlet classes) in my CLASSPATH. There is, in fact only the path to the servlet classes themselves as a hedge. Perhaps that should be removed. Right now, I don't see the link. I'm thinking I didn't mess with the CLASSPATH for Tomcat 3.3, but my memory may be wrong. I'll check when I get home tonight. (I've got it set up on my own iBook.) What's your server.xml look like? Have you set that (and the stuff it refers to) up properly? Read the comments and the XML declarations in there and check them against the docs again. So back to owners. I followed the instructions from an OnJava article on installing tomcat. Tomcat is owned by Unix user 'jackpark', while mysql, also installed according to an OnJava article, is owned by (originally) Unix user 'mysql' and now Unix user 'wiki'. I'd like everything to be owned by 'wiki' I think there should be no problem with that, although it isn't really necessary. You can control who can run as whom with your sudoers file. Are you setting the users up from the users control panel (???) or from the network administration app? The latter is the one you want to be using for users that are there just to run apps under. Remember to keep root login disabled as much as possible. (which has a password) because that's the user that a webmaster will have access to. chown -R is used on the mysql installation. the user 'jackpark' is running both. I'm not sure what subdoers means, sudoers is the file in /etc somewhere (my memory is bad today) that tells sudo which users are allowed to pretend to be whom. but I almost always have to use sudo to do everything. I hope that doesn't mean that you're doing sudo root to run this all. If you are, get your sudoers file set up so you can get away from that. I think there's a man entry on sudoers, but if not, read the entries on sudo and su very thoroughly. It may take an hour to understand, but it's definitely worth the effort. BTW, the openBSD site (and they'll say mean things at me for increasing their traffic) has some excellent manual pages on line: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi Plug sudoers into the search form. You'll need to remember that there will be some differences, since Darwin is derived from the freeBSD, but I find the discussions very helpful. Right now, mac autoboots to jackpark. I'll drop that when it's ready to get plugged into the web. Whatever user(s) you run mysql, tomcat, and whatever else as, make sure they are users that can't log on. Is there some hint that everything should be owned and run by one user? I don't think so. It may help you to keep track of things. It may not. I'm pretty sure I had a separate tomcat and mysql user in my set-up at home. I'm beginning to suspect that there are problems with this 'picture.' (mostly made by my ignorance), particularly since two different tomcat builds refuse to run their examples. Perhaps you'll see what's wrong with this picture. At first, it seemed you had some confusion between the mysql permissions system and the UNIX permissions system. But it looks like that isn't the problem, after all. Let's see. You said you had the driver in place. You said you were able to log into mysql, so your sockets must be okay. I guess I'm out of ideas, unless your contexts have got something in them that doesn't work on Mac OS X. How's the case sensitivity? No, if it's working on MSWindows, then you shouldn't be getting bit by case conflicts. Many thanks, again. Jack At 01:26 PM 7/9
Re: Tomcat Apache no success,
Im having problems getting Apache to work with Tomcat. AS in,, are they supposed to both go on Port 80 I don't think so. It seems to me like I remember something about putting tomcat up at 8080 or so when having apache front-end the non-java stuff. If you want to run tomcat standalone at port 80, I recall that it should be possible, but probably not on the same machine as one already running apache at port 80. (I think the point of conflict is the domain, so if you set your machine to run virtual domains, that might work, but I doubt it is what you want.) -- Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Tomcat v. Apache
but I was wondering if you would kindly send me some guidance on using the various directives for the Apache Server?! Just a thought, but have you read through the comments in httpd.conf? I find they are easier to understand after having read through them once or twice. (Kept falling asleep the first time I read through them, yes.) Have you got a basic apache server running (without Tomcat)? I basically did not have to touch my httpd.conf file the first time I brought apache up. I found that playing (experimenting) with apache is the best way to figure out the directives and the documentation. Experimenting on a private network is a good idea. I. e., since you won't want to mess with DNS the first time around, physically disconnecting your lan or modem, start up your server(s) then access them at http:localhost for apache and standalone tomcat, and http://localhost:8080 for tomcat specific stuff when you have apache front-ending it. If localhost doesn't work, try the loopback, at http://127.0.0.1. I usually just plan on giving myself private one-day seminars on these things.

I was using JDeveloper for a while and it isn't too bad. I had an old copy (3.2 something), so I haven't played with the latest version. It is pretty big (250+ M), but at least the version I had was native under Windows. I tried NetBeans and it was just too slow. It has a ton of great features (ANT support, CVS, Tomcat integration), but unless you have a good machine it might not be worth it. It was very slow on my 1Ghz laptop w/ 128M of memory. You might also try Forte from Sun which is their version of NetBeans. Personally, I don't need code completion and stuff so I just use a simple editor and then ANT to do the builds. I need to deploy on a different machine so I just check the file into CVS and run ANT on the server (does the pull from CVS and then compiles into my JAR). Once the build and deployment are done, if you have Tomcat setup right it recognizes the new JAR has been uploaded. Very slick. Software Development Magazine (free subscriptions, but I can't remember the URL at the moment) just did their Jolt awards and I think IDEA took the top spot. They also liked JBuilder (or Borland), though. Isn't JBuilder what JDeveloper is based off of? I can't remember, but I thought Oracle just licensed someone's IDE. Anyway, it really depends on which features you need from your IDE. I can do everything I need with ANT and vi if I have to now. :) -J Joel Sather email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: 651-917-4719 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/13/02 01:28PM what about jdeveloper from oracle, is it any good? -Original Message- From: Turner, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 1:14 PM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: [offtopic] IDE for Tomcat? Hi - This was just posted earlier today: http://www.netbeans.org/ It looks very promising, but I haven't worked with it. We're using Borland's JBuilder...it seems to be the most neutral of the available options. MSFT's Java IDE isn't current anymore, as far as I know. http://www.borland.com/jbuilder/ I believe the personal edition is free, but it might not have all the features you are looking for.

Re: IIS mailing list (off-topic)
Sorry with everybody about this off-topic question but I need absolutely to find a mailing-list about Internet Information Server. I tried to search on the Web but unsuccessfully. In case you're still looking, google newsgroup archives at http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=jalr=group=microsoft.public.inetserver.iis Can't say much about the newsgroups or about IIS, because I don't use IIS. But I thought I'd let you know it's there. -- Joel Rees [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Please Help: HTTP Status 500 - Internal Server Error
For what it's worth, I've come across this problem far too many times when installing things under Windows. I have now adopted the practice of installing native Windows applications (Photoshop, Office etc) in c:\program files and server applications like Apache, Tomcat as well as command line programs like Perl, Java, Ant etc in c:\servers or c:\apps, and then c:\servers\apache, c:\servers\tomcat etc rather than c:\servers\apache group\apache or whatever the default is. These steps have meant I have been able to weed out most of the problems of developing under Windows, apart from some CVS issues for which I need to use Cygwin - though these are easily compensated for given how gorgeous Ant makes things - like updating modules automatically before building. Ant is the way forward! HTH, apologies for rambling - trying to avoid revising for finals. ;) Joel Baker.

Tomcat 4.1 /admin
Hi there, I'd love to have a go at using the admin webapp in Tomcat 4.1, and so I've downloaded the nightly release (and have done so for various nightlies this week). When starting up tomcat, I get: 2002-05-11 01:58:47 WebappLoader[/admin]: Deploy JAR /WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar to c:\servers\tomcat\webapps\..\server\webapps\admin\WEB-INF\lib\struts.jar 2002-05-11 01:58:49 ContextConfig[/admin] Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar javax.servlet.ServletException: Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar(Unknown Source) [snip] in my localhost_admin_log. This is with the virgin nightly build (as virgin as a nightly build can be ;) ) and, the struts.jar does exist in that path. What alterations/setup are required to get a nightly working? I haven't yet tried this on one of my Linux Tomcat installations, though of course, that shouldn't make a difference. Thanks for any help, Joel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Utilising JDBC Realm config and pooling from a webapp
Hi there, I've set up a webapp to use a JDBC Realm in my server.xml config file in Tomcat 4.0.3. I use this for FORMS based authentication. I have added fields to the SQL table used to authenticate to include more interesting things like Full Name and email address. I have currently hard coded the database details (server, db, table, username, password) using some raw JDBC code in servlets and JSP pages just to see whether the webapp would function correctly. I now want to move to a more refined solution with the details specified in a central location - ie: server.xml, and also to use some sort of JDBC connection pool. However, these details are of course already specified in the JDBC Realm and, presumably, Tomcat does some sort of connection pooling for its Realms. Thus I was wondering whether it would be possible to utilise both of these for my own use. I've tried to research this but not found much, other than a possibility that Realms are read-only - which wouldn't be too useful from my perspective as I'd like to use the setup to maintain the userlist as well. Any ideas on this would be greatly appreciated. If this isn't possible, I will have to maintain two identical sets of db information in my server.xml, which isn't tragic, but will also have to investigate connection pooling further. I have written my own connection pool in the past but would be interested in a more maintained, pluggable, solution. Any ideas on this would also be welcomed. Many thanks for any help, Joel Baker. -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Troubles with the list: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
