Tutorial - How to Set Up Lucee in Tomcat

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

I published a blog post with an accompanying video tutorial about 
setting up Lucee in Tomcat.  While there are some Lucee-specific 
elements in the tutorial, most of it is applicable to any servlet setup, 
covering CATALINA_HOME, CATALINA_BASE, and the recently added makebase 
utility.


I hope that some users will find it informative and useful. Feedback is 
welcome.

You'd add something like this:

  

Which would make the content of W:\some\path visible at the root of
the web application. Note that normally handling will apply. So,
for example, anything named *.jsp will get treated as as JSP page.

You'll want to edit your web application's META-INF/context.xml file.

If no such file exists, create a new one with this in it:




Then nest everything else inside that XML element wrapper.
I thought that the XML declaration is required but testing shows that it 
is not, and that the above example works (further investigation revealed 
that in XML 1.1 the declaration is required but we're using XML 1.0 here).


Good to know.

Re: IIS authentication applies to static but not dynamic requests (servlets, JSPs). Any way to control that?

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

Charlie,

On 6/11/2018 2:38 PM, charlie arehart wrote:

Folks, I have found that if Windows authentication (NTLM) is enabled for a site 
(or folder) in IIS, such authentication does apply (and is honored) for static 
files (html, images) but NOT dynamic ones (servlets, JSPs). Is that intended?

To be clear, this is the latest Tomcat 8 (8.5.31) and the latest IIS connector 
(1.2.43). The uriworkermap.properties is configured to pass all requests to 
Tomcat (not just JSPs, for instance).

What I’m referring to in particular is this: consider that I set the security 
properties for one of the JSP example folders:

‪ C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 
8.5_Tomcat8_5_31\webapps\examples\jsp\jsp2\el

such that my user had been denied access to that folder.

And let’s say I have configured a site in IIS that listens on port 91 to pass 
to Tomcat. If I open a new browser window (so as to not have any caching of 
previous authentication), and I visit this URL:

http://localhost:91/examples/jsp/jsp2/el/basic-arithmetic.html

I get a prompt in the browser to login, and if I login with the user whose 
permissions had been denied, I get a rejection from IIS. (In my case, I am 
running my Tomcat test site on port 91 in IIS. It’s not at all pertinent if 
there is a non-std port or port 80 used.)

The key issue is that if I then visit a JSP or servlet, that IS ALLOWED to run, 
even though a static file is rejected:

http://localhost:91/examples/jsp/jsp2/el/basic-arithmetic.jsp

I have found nothing in the docs to indicate that this is expected behavior. 
Can anyone offer any thoughts? I am happy to do any tests or shared any needed 
diagnostics to help resolve this. Thanks.
Are you sure that the static requests are passed to Tomcat?  Can you 
verify that in the response headers?


The logical explanation that I can think of is that IIS still serves the 
static content, but passes the JSP stuff to Tomcat without checking the 
security permissions.

OutOfMemoryError when Uploading Files

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

Hello,

I am troubleshooting a servlet which is used to upload files. Small 
files under 25mb are processed properly.  Large files over 50mb are 
processed properly.  Files with size in the range of 25mb -- 50mb fail 
with OutOfMemoryError.


Unfortunately I do not get a Stack Trace.  Instead of a Stack Trace I 
only get "Java heap space".


I know that the FileUpload component has a threshold with default of 
10kb, so that files under 10kb are processed in memory, but files larger 
than that are processed using the disk to preserve memory.  I do not see 
anywhere in the code that the threshold is modified from its default value.


Is there anywhere else in Tomcat that might have a 50mb threshold for IO 
operations?  Specifically in NioEndpoint since I see this in catalina.out:


Jul 11, 2017 1:23:29 PM org.apache.tomcat.util.net.NioEndpoint$SocketProcessor 
doRun
SEVERE:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Running Tomcat 8.0.23 (and yes, I would love to upgrade it but this is 
for a large organization and I can not update it at this time).


Am I correct to assume that the error is logged from
https://github.com/apache/tomcat80/blob/TOMCAT_8_0_23/java/org/apache/tomcat/util/net/NioEndpoint.java#L1563

?

Sure, but those people need to have certain skills and expertise in 
Tomcat or very related technologies.


I, for example, can do one for rapid web application development with 
Lucee, which allows a much faster development than JSP or JSF for 
example.  I'm not sure if the Tomcat channel is the best for that

though, and it gives you a small performance hit.
I missed the part about having httpd already installed, you're right,

I agree about the "one more thing to go wrong", but fronting Tomcat with 
a Web Server gives a performance hit?  I mean, sure, now requests for 
Tomcat have another step to go through, but all of the static resources 
(assuming there are static resources) will supposedly be handled more 
efficiently by a web server, no?  The added layer usually provides more 
security as well, provided that the web server doesn't add new 
vulnerabilities, of course.


I personally use nginx for SSL termination, which I find easier than 
Tomcat, though it's been many years since I last tried to setup Tomcat 
with https.



but see also two solutions from
http://georgik.rocks/tomcat-7-listen-on-port-80-linux-debian/

1) have Tomcat listen on a higher port and redirect traffic from
port 80 to the higher port in iptables

This is an okay solution but it's ugly(ish) and highly undiscoverable.
I can't remember the last time I did a netstat and immediately thought
"hey, I wonder if any of those bound ports are being redirected by
iptables?"
Agreed, but I saw it in a couple of places when I googled "linux run 
tomcat on port 80" after James asked for elaboration.  I'm much more 
familiar with Windows than Linux (though am making the migration and 
actually setting up my first CentOS  production server), hence my 
original reply on this thread was short and with no details.



2) set `AUTHBIND=yes` om /etc/defaults/tomcat7

That needs to be /etc/default/tomcat[version]
I actually thought of editing that before posting, but since the OP 
mentioned tomcat 7 I decided not to do so.



I did a little digging into how this works because I was curious.
Obviously, it uses authbind. But that script automatically adds the
following file to /etc/authbind/byuid/[tomcat-uid]:

0.0.0.0/0:1,1023
::/0,1-1023

This allows the tomcat user to bind to ports between 1 and 1023 on
IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

I would personally lock this down even further and enumerate the ports
you expect to use, but it's possible that the service runner (systemd
in this case) may clobber the permissions at some future point.
I was also wondering how it works, but was too busy to look it up. 
Thanks for sharing your findings.

and got ZERO feedback on half a dozen forums and mailing lists,
including this one. In contrast, in this windows question I got a lot
of feedback very quickly.


The thing here is that Java is configured and runs pretty much the same 
on all of the operating systems.  There is nothing wrong with Windows 
with respect to developing, configuring, or running Java. That applies 
to all Java software, including Tomcat.


If you are switching from a Mac, though, then perhaps a UNIX-like OS 
would have been a better choice for you, since MacOS is based on BSD, 
and even Microsoft is moving towards the *nix world (e.g. added Bash 
from Ubuntu, made a Linux version SQL Server, etc.).


Anyway, there's nothing wrong with Windows if you don't mind their 
licensing, costs, and added overhead of GUI where it is not needed.

Yes.

You can name it anything you want, but "Apps" is short and semantic in

Then in the web server I pass the following headers from the web server

Register ServletRequestListener from OSGi Bundle

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

Hello,

I have a JSR-356 (WebSocket API) code that is packaged in an OSGi 
bundle. The servlet loads the code via Apache Felix if needed.


I want to register a ServletRequestListener, which I would normally put 
in the web descriptor:


  
path.to.my.RequestListener
  

but since the bundle is not in the classpath that wouldn't work.

How can I register the ServletRequestListener? I am thinking that maybe 
there would be a way with scanning for annotations but am not sure how 
to set that up. My other concern is that many users disable the scanning 
to improve startup time.


The listener's job is to initialize HttpSession so that I can retrieve 
the ServletContext in the WebSocket handshake. If there's a way to 
achieve that without the listener then that will work for me even better.


Any ideas?  Thanks!

p.s. This is a crosspost with

Can you post those scripts somewhere?  They can benefit many users.

Most projects nowadays follow the semantic versioning spec, which 
specifies that patch update and minor update (see items 6 and 7 at 
http://semver.org/#spec-item-6 ) should be backwards compatible.


I expected Tomcat to follow this specification, and if it doesn't then I 
highly recommend that you will consider adopting it.

I'd say a more robust (and the documented way) is to use a Tomcat-Home

$CATALINA_HOME holds the actual distributed Tomcat-"Binaries" (ZIP/TGZ),
$CATALINA_BASE holds your adapted config, libs and webapps.

This way you can just exchange the CATALINA_HOME with a new version (say 
8.5.15) and restart Tomcat. In case there are differences in configs between 
versions, adapt your conf using 
https://tomcat.apache.org/migration-85.html#Tomcat_8.5.x_configuration_file_differences


I agree that separating the CATALINA_HOME from CATALINA_BASE is a much 
better setup, but if Tomcat was not set up like that already then for a 
minor upgrade this complicates the process.


The simplest way to upgrade is the one I documented.

A minor update, i.e. from 8.5.9 to 8.5.15 should be as simple as:

1) Shut down Tomcat
2) Make a backup of {tomcat}/lib directory (cause you never know, right?)
3) Copy the lib directory from 8.5.15 to the {tomcat}/lib overwriting 
the old jar files

4) Start up Tomcat

Be sure to have the full path of tomcat-juli.jar in the Java Classpath 
setting.  That's what matters to Java.  You can place the Jar file 
anywhere you want as long as the Classpath points to it and the user 
that runs Tomcat has read privileges to that file.  But obviously the

Then I ran into this bit of documentation:

In CATALINA_BASE:

Re: WebSocket Handshake returns Unexpected Response Code 500

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

OK, apparently HandshakeRequest's getRequestURI().getAuthority() returns 
null and my code didn't account for that.


I'm surprised that nothing was logged anywhere though, even with a FINE

Technically, this works. Whether there are better ways to do it are
debatable.
I've been running Tomcat for almost 10 years now, and this works for me 
well, having separate directory trees for software, config files, and 
web documents.


So yes, I've decided what I want to do.  But I want to make sure that 
there are no unintended consequences of which I'm unaware.



But you're not interested in anyone else's opinon, so why
bother asking?
That's because I'm not looking for an opinion of users who've found some 
config files online and copied/pasted them to their server. I'm looking 
for an opinion of someone who knows the inner workings of Tomcat, e.g. 
someone from the core team members.


So far no one has shown me how they set up Tomcat in a directory outside 
of $CATALINA_BASE.  The few "opinions" that I received say that my web 
directories should reside inside $CATALINA_BASE/webapps, which as you 
stated -- I've already decided that is not what I want.



How many different ways are there to demonstrate:


   


??
How exactly does that show how to specify where the web root will be, 
and have it outside of $CATALINA_BASE/webapps?


My question, at least the 2nd time around, is in my opinion very clear 
and very valid.  It'd be really great if someone can provide a real 
answer rather than post a couple of links to the docs (I have access to 
google too), or tell me that I'm just "doing it wrong".


Sincerely,


Igal



There is a description of all the ways to define a context here:
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/config/context.html#Defining_a_
context

The files go where the files go. The contents are not terribly
relevant. What kind of example were you looking for?

That is definitely not true.  I've set up Tomcat many many times

used.

Both of the above are incorrect.  It is highly unlikely that

point to a directory where one or more webapps are located for

It *is* read-only. But you can clone the repo and make a read-write

It doesn't matter to you at all if the ASF's git repo is read-only.
Only the owner cares about that.


When I wrote read-only I meant a "read-only mirror for Subversion". 
Obviously I did not expect to have commit permissions on the official

You need to read the documentation for , , and deployment

It would have been nice to see some real life examples of complete

Both of the above are incorrect.  It is highly unlikely that you want
the

 name to be App1.  The appBase attribute of  must point to a
directory where one or more webapps are located for automatic deployment.
It must never point to a specific webapp.  The path attribute of the

Setting up a Context outside of webapps (was: Host appBase vs. Context docBase)

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

I'm asking my question differently since it didn't get much traction 
when I asked it before.


I want to set up a Web Context outside of %CATALINA_BASE%/webapps, e.g. 
at C:\WebRoot\myapp.  I prefer to configure it in server.xml, because I 
like it that all of my config files are at %CATALINA_BASE%/conf.


So for example, to set up an app for myapp.tld, with contents in 
C:\WebRoot\myapp, I use the following snippet:






I don't want to specify Host appBase to C:\WebRoot because it contains 
separate sites (Contexts) in different directories, and each site is 
configured to run at the root directory of the site, e.g. 
http://myapp.tld/.  I also clear the contents of %CATALINA_BASE%/webapps.


Is that the right way to do it?  Is there a better way?  Anything wrong 
with this set up?


It'd be great if the docs had contained some real examples.

Hi Mark,

Sure. Got for it.


I'm not very familiar with SVN (hopefully Apache will move to GIT soon), 
so I wasn't sure where to submit the patch.


The Apache Contributors Guide suggests the bug tracking platform. Should 
I create a ticket in Bugzilla and add the patch there?


I also attached the patch file here for convenience.

Thank you,

Allow Customization of service.bat

[Igal @ Lucee.org]

service.bat is a great tool to install and remove Tomcat as a Windows 
service, but it has a few hardcoded values that should be 
customize-able, like the heap memory size and JVM args.


I've modified the script slightly to address these issues.  The first 
part sets default values:


if "%SERVICE_STARTUP_MODE%" == "" set SERVICE_STARTUP_MODE=manual
if "%JvmMs%" == "" set JvmMs=128
if "%JvmMx%" == "" set JvmMx=256

The second part makes use of those values:

--Startup "%SERVICE_STARTUP_MODE%" ^
--JvmOptions 
"%JvmArgs%;-Dcatalina.home=%CATALINA_HOME%;-Dcatalina.base=%CATALINA_BASE%;-Djava.io.tmpdir=%CATALINA_BASE%\temp;-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager;-Djava.util.logging.config.file=%CATALINA_BASE%\conf\logging.properties" 
^

--JvmMs "%JvmMs%" ^
--JvmMx "%JvmMx%"

It'd be great, however, if these changes were accepted to be part of the 
Tomcat distribution.


Can I submit a patch for that?

Host appBase vs. Context docBase

Hi,

Suppose that I have an application at C:\WebApps\App1

Is it better to set it up as Host appBase (option 1) or as Context
docBase with empty path (option 2):
