Summary: commons logging issue Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.27 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org ReportedBy: j.g.hol...@qmul.ac.uk CC: j.g.hol...@qmul.ac.uk Created an attachment (id=23212) --> (https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=23212) Simple war file illustrating the problem I have a web application running in Tomcat 5.5.27 with JDK 1.5.0_16-b02 on Windows XP SP3. log4j-1.2.15.jar and commons-logging-1.1.1.jar are installed in WEB-INF/lib and there is a context.xml file in META-INF. When packaged as a war file this combination reliably produces the exception shown below in the Tomcat console under the following circumstances: 1. deploy the war file (e.g. using Tomcat HTTP manager) 2. stop and restart tomcat 3. undeploy the war file 4. deploy the war file Note that to demonstrate this it is necessary to have both a context.xml file in META-INF and commons-logging-1.1.1.jar in WEB-INF/lib. Also, the problem disappears if you downgrade to commons-logging-1.0.4. Otherwise the contents of the application don't seem to matter, and can be demonstrated in an application containing no classes or other libraries. The only other thing I've found to have an effect is the *name* of the application. "commons-logging-test" exhibits the problem, but in at least one test renaming the same application to start with a letter later in the alphabet did not (possibly to do with the order applications are loaded)? Note that the problem goes away if I set system property org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.ENABLE_CLEAR_REFERENCES to false. However having had PermGen memory exhaustion problems in the past I am loathe to do this, and would also prefer to work Tomcat in its default configuration as far as possible. Simple war file attached in the hope that this will help pinpoint the problem. Thanks, John. === 29-Jan-2009 21:07:43 org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig deployWAR INFO: Deploying web application archive commons-logging-test.war 29-Jan-2009 21:07:43 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext processTlds SEVERE: Error reading tld listeners java.lang.NullPointerException java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.log4j.Category.isEnabledFor(Category.java:749) at org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger.isTraceEnabled(Log4JLogg r.java:333) at org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig.tldScanResourcePaths(TldConfig java:581) at org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig.execute(TldConfig.java:282) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.processTlds(StandardContext java:4307) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java: 144) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChildInternal(ContainerBas .java:760) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChild(ContainerBase.java:7 0) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.addChild(StandardHost.java:544 at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployWAR(HostConfig.java:831 at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployApps(HostConfig.java:51 ) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.check(HostConfig.java:1232) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAcce sorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) at org.apache.commons.modeler.BaseModelMBean.invoke(BaseModelMBean.java 458) at com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver.DynamicMetaDataImpl.invoke(DynamicMetaDataIm l.java:213) at com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver.MetaDataImpl.invoke(MetaDataImpl.java:220) at com.sun.jmx.interceptor.DefaultMBeanServerInterceptor.invoke(Default BeanServerInterceptor.java:815) at com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver.JmxMBeanServer.invoke(JmxMBeanServer.java:78 ) at org.apache.catalina.manager.ManagerServlet.check(ManagerServlet.java 1397) at org.apache.catalina.manager.ManagerServlet.deploy(ManagerServlet.jav :635) at org.apache.catalina.manager.ManagerServlet.doPut(ManagerServlet.java 424) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:650) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:729) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(App icationFilterChain.java:269) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(Application ilterChain.java:188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapper alve.java:213) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContext alve.java:172) at org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase.invoke(Authentic torBase.java:525) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve. ava:127) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve. ava:117) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineVa ve.java:108) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.ja a:174) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.jav :875) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler. rocessConnection(Http11BaseProtocol.java:665) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.processSocket(PoolTcpEndp int.java:528) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.runIt(LeaderFo lowerWorkerThread.java:81) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(Thread ool.java:689) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
