Ah, yes, there was another reason to deprecate JkMX :). mx4j no longer ships with the jrmp Adapter. You need to downgrade your mx4j to version 1.1.
"Pankaj Bhatnagar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi I am trying to upgrade from Tomcat 5.0.x to Tomcat 5.5.9. I have an application that used to monitor Tomcat 5.0.x by connecting to the jrmp service and retreiving the MBeanServer. I used to enable the jrmp service by adding the 2 lines : mx.port=9999 mx.jrmpPort=1099 to the jk2.properties file in the /conf folder. This does not work with Tomcat 5.5.9 :( I added these 2 lines to the jk2.properties file but found that there was no change in Tomcat starting up. I realized that the jk2.properties file was not being read by default. I then added the attribute propertiesFile="/conf/jk2.properties" to the AJP Connector definition in the server.xml file. Now I get the following : May 13, 2004 1:16:35 PM org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket init INFO: JK: ajp13 listening on /0.0.0.0:8009 May 13, 2004 1:16:35 PM org.apache.jk.common.JkMX init INFO: Can't enable log4j mx: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.jmx.HierarchyDynamicMBean at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:199) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:187) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:289) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:235) at ava.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:302) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:141) at org.apache.jk.common.JkMX.registerObject(JkMX.java:382) at org.apache.jk.common.JkMX.init(JkMX.java:341) at org.apache.jk.server.JkMain.start(JkMain.java:326) at org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler.start(JkCoyoteHandler.java:200) at org.apache.catalina.connector.Connector.start(Connector.java:1001) at ...... May 13, 2004 1:16:35 PM org.apache.jk.server.JkMain start INFO: Jk running ID=0 time=0/79 config=/conf/jk2.properties Now I dont understand whether the service started successfully or not ? How can I check whether the service started or not ? I am not able to connect to the service through code. Could please help me as to how I can enable the jrmp service in Tomcat 5.5.9 and retreive the MBeanServer programatically ? Also, how do I start Tomcat in debug mode & where will I get the debug messages ?
