Derby Server and Administration Guide - Managing the Derby Network Server 
remotely by using the servlet interface
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: DERBY-1200
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1200
     Project: Derby
        Type: Bug

  Components: Documentation  
    Versions: 10.1.2.3    
 Environment: DITA source file
    Reporter: Halley Pacheco de Oliveira
    Priority: Minor
     Fix For: 10.1.2.3


In this part of the manual is written:

For example, if derby.war is installed in WebSphere Application Server with a 
context root of cns, the URL of the server is:

http://<server>[:port]/derby/derbynet

I'm not an expert in WebSphere, but I don't thin so. With a context root of cns 
the URL should be, in my opinion:

http://<server>[:port]/cns/derbynet

When I installed this war file in Tomcat I received the message:

OK - Deployed application at context path /derby

And I'm accessing the servlet using the URL:

http://localhost:8080/derby/derbynet

I think that the URL in the manual should not be changed, and the context root 
should be changed to "derby", discarding "cns". The diff file that I'm sending 
do this.

There is another problem: I didn't find the derby.war file in 
$DERBY_INSTALL/frameworks/NetworkServer/war directory, I found it in the 
directory $DERBY_INSTALL/lib/

I also would like to see this chapter improved with an example of installing 
and using the servlet with Tomcat. I did this in four steps:

1) Copying the files derby.jar and derbynet.jar to $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/

2) Including the lines:
DERBY_INSTALL=<directory>
and
-Dderby.system.home=$DERBY_INSTALL/frameworks/NetworkServer/bin
in Tomcat initialization script, to have derby.system.home in the same 
directory of NetworkServerControl scripts.

3)Using "Select WAR file to upload" in Tomcat Web Application Manager to upload 
$DERBY_INSTALL/lib/derby.war

4)Using the URL http://localhost:8080/derby/derbynet to access the servlet.

I think this could be a good example.
