Re: Fwd: md5 sums for jakarta downloads
This is the md5 output generated by BSD md5 and not necessarily a standard, GNU md5sum generates a different format that is not standard as well. For maven, just the checksum portion of the content is stored in the file. It would be nice if there was a standard in this area, but I have yet to see one in the internet community.

Re: Fwd: md5 sums for jakarta downloads
Yes, well, I actually do not think much thought has gone into this subject at Apache, until know I think perople have thought the .md5 file format was a standard or something. I've been researching md5 applications in terms of attempting to make a recommendation to the repository group on the appropriate format to use in the ASF Repository project. To date my research shows that both applications support the GNU checksum filename.ext format when performing a md5sum (GNU) or cksum (BSD) check against the file/md5 pair. And that the GNU version of md5sum cannot handle the BSD's default md5 format. Since BSD cksum can read the GNU format, BSD md5 can produce the GNU format, and installations of the GNU toolkit and that md5 file format are much more prevalent than BSD and its format, then my recommendation is that would be the appropriate format to use for the time being. Its quite clear that the majority of the computers on the internet are not BSD systems, no matter how great the OS is ;-). IMHO, the decision for the appropriate md5 file format should be based on what applications require in the real world, not on which servers Apache actually uses in production. -Mark Diggory Shapira, Yoav wrote: Hi, Well, as always, when there's an established practice I'd like a stronger reason than it would probably be good to change it ;) I see what you mean, but I don't know that the GNU md5 is any more prevalent than the BSD md5 or vice versa...

Re: Problems Instantiating JNDI LdapDirContext as resource.
Enrico,
Sure, my solution was to compile my own Factory for creating the
InitialDirContext, something like the following and then place it into
the tomcatX/common/lib directory.
public class MyDirContextFactory
implements ObjectFactory, InitialContextFactory {
public Object getObjectInstance(
Object obj,
Name name,
Context nameCtx,
Hashtable environment)
throws NamingException {
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
Reference ref = (Reference) obj;
Enumeration addrs = ref.getAll();
while (addrs.hasMoreElements()) {
RefAddr addr = (RefAddr) addrs.nextElement();
if(!addr.getType().equals(factory))
env.put(addr.getType(), addr.getContent().toString());
}
return this.getInitialContext(env);
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
javax.naming.spi.InitialContextFactory#getInitialContext(java.util.Hashtable)
*/
public Context getInitialContext(Hashtable environment)
throws NamingException {
return new InitialDirContext(environment);
}
}
hope this helps,

Re: jakarta-commons-daemon could use that ?
(Please excuse the cross post, I wanted to get this out onto the the Commons Development List and to JPackage as well. I think the Tomcat Lists seem to get a little crowded) Henri, I emailed the developer of Easy Posix (Greg Guerin). Turns out that its current implementation is dependent upon Ten , a Mac OS X package for MacJVM, so it is not deployable in the standard Linux OS. From my conversation with him, he spoke that he is planning to develop a straight JNI implementation of the EasyPosix interfaces in the future, but that if others went that route earlier he would have an interest. As there has already been much work in the JNI area with daemon, this would certainly seem an interesting co-evolution. Perhaps daemon could grow into quite a powerful java based service environment with the addition of a JNI Implementation of EasyPosix?! Cygwin supports a wide array of posix functions, and making sure the implementation of EasyPosix that worked on cygwin as well would provide a port of these functions to Windows via Cygwin. Perhaps, even a standard could evolve to support a specific subset of posix-like Functions. Using something like EasyPosix as a guide, a java program (daemon or not) that needed greater access to POSIX functions could be ported to any system that EasyPosix was supported on, completely independent of its implementation on that system. It would possibly make java services quite cross-platform for at least in the unix/linux/darwin/cygwin world. Another point of interest: If JPackage produced a Tomcat RPM based on the current implementation of daemon and another implementation of daemon based on EasyPosix were developed. It would be easy to adapt to such a change. In the end, this would possibly make EasyPosix the means by which daemon could be ported to Darwin/Mac without the wieght of compiling or porting a JNI implementation. -Mark Henri Gomez wrote: I didn't track jakarta-commons-daemon but I know many of you here which are subscribed to it. What do you think of easyposix ? http://www.amug.org/~glguerin/sw/easyposix/overview.html Couldn't it be a nice add-on for daemon ?

Comments welcomed - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Greg Guerin wrote: The supplied code only provides a Mac OS X implementation. That implementation uses JDirect-3, which is an Apple-specific means to call arbitrary native-code functions directly from Java, without an intervening JNI layer. All other platforms will need a JNI implementation for that platform. Absent a JNI implementation, the unimplemented implementation is used, i.e. UnPosix. See the docs for UnPosix for more details. You could pattern a JNI imp off the Mac OS X imp. The mapping of the Mac OS X implementation to JNI functions, and the bodies of the JNI functions themselves, should be fairly straightforward. That's because all the 'native' methods in the Ten class are essentially the names of C functions in the BSD/Posix library. Getting the callbacks right is a little trickier, but well within the skill-set of a capable JNI programmer. FYI, I have write Easy Posix JNI imp on my list of projects to do, but it's several items down in the queue right now, and at least a couple months or more away from getting to the head of the queue. The source may not be instantly portable to Linux, but it shouldn't be so different that it would be useless as a starting point. Or, if you wrote a JNI imp for Linux before I get to the JNI imp for Mac OS X, I wouldn't mind the positions being reversed. On another note, Apache has another package they've been working on that is a java based daemon for running Java programs as daemons on both Unix and Windows. http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/daemon/ Henri Gomez (of www.jpackage.org - the packagers of the tomcat and other java based rpm's) and I reviewed your site and suggested to both Apache and JPackage that they should seriously take a look at your package as an additional tool for controlling Java based Daemons. While I am not actually an Apache developer, I have a great interest in the organization, regularly use the tools they develop and often try to make recommendations to improve the tools. I try to provide avenues for improvement when I see external open source tools that are benificial. I think the Apache Jakarta Commons project Daemon is a good start, and a natural growth for a generic tool out of the Tomcat source-base, but its obvious that your package captures alot more functionality above and beyond that of Daemon. That makes sense, since I was interested in the underlying POSIX facilities themselves, not the nature of the program (deamon vs. non-daemon) that
Shutdown Status in Bootstrap/Catalina
Hi All, We're looking into the possibility of improving the Bootstrap/Catalina startup/shutdown that is currently used to start/stop tomcat in the JPackage RPM distribution for Tomcat 4.l.*. What are the chances that a status command could be added to the Bootstrap/Catalina 4.1.* classes? This would allow us to check the status of tomcat while shutting down in the shutdown scripts. For scripts that start/stop/restart tomcat as an init.d service (Redhat), the script would then be more capabile of waiting for tomcat to shut completely down before restarting becuase it wait until the status changed. As it is now, when lots of things happen on shutdown, using a shell script sleep command to wait for shutdown before 'restarting' causes the startup to start before the shutdown has fully completed. Having a status command would give script developers better control over when tomcat has really completely shutdown. Administrators wouldn't have to go in and muck around with the scripts sleep time when their webapps/connectors require more time to shutdown.

Re: Shutdown Status in Bootstrap/Catalina
I was thinking strictly of only if there were server threads/processes up. Nothing to do with the state of the contents of those processes (webapps), just a straight boolean presence/absence of processes. In this sense it would do the following If server process/threads exist - return true If server process/threads do not exist - return false This would be just enough granularity to make decent decisions about when to call start in a restart (stop, wait till status==false, and start) command. -Mark Shapira, Yoav wrote: Howdy, What would you suggest as the possible outputs from the status command? Personally, every time I've tried something like this I've run into granularity problems. Is the status ok when there is a server process, when the server manager webapp is available, or when user webapps are all available, or some subset thereof?

In this sense it would do the following If server process/threads exist - return true If server process/threads do not exist - return false This would be just enough granularity to make decent decisions about when to call start in a restart (stop, wait till status==false, and start) command. -Mark Shapira, Yoav wrote: Howdy, What would you suggest as the possible outputs from the status command?

Diggory [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 03, 2003 9:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Shutdown Status in Bootstrap/Catalina Hi All, We're looking into the possibility of improving the Bootstrap/Catalina startup/shutdown that is currently used to start/stop tomcat in the JPackage RPM distribution for Tomcat 4.l.*. What are the chances that a status command could be added to the Bootstrap/Catalina 4.1.* classes? This would allow us to check the status of tomcat while shutting down in the shutdown scripts. For scripts that start/stop/restart tomcat as an init.d service (Redhat), the script would then be more capabile of waiting for tomcat to shut completely down before restarting becuase it wait until the status changed. As it is now, when lots of things happen on shutdown, using a shell script sleep command to wait for shutdown before 'restarting' causes the startup to start before the shutdown has fully completed. Having a status command would give script developers better control over when tomcat has really completely shutdown. Administrators wouldn't have to go in and muck around with the scripts sleep time when their webapps/connectors require more time to shutdown.

Re: Idea for dtomcat4 script/conf in webapp.rpm
Opse, sorry.
Yes, I mean in the Tomcat4 RPM, not the mod_webapp rpm. I did this with
my tomcat4.conf file and dtomcat4 and it works for the start option.
I'm not sure what one would have to do with the run or embed options
of dtomcat4.

Do you know who is currently managing the /usr/bin/dtomcat file in the current tarball? Maybe they can get in on the conversation.

Tomcat 4 / mod_webapp RPMs available...
We've been customizing the src rpm's available at: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.1/rpms/ and the mod_webapp rpm at: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.2-b2/rpms/ to produce RPM's that our team feels are stable an logically install on Redhat 7.x. We've done a number of things to them. In mod_webapp: We fixed a WebAppMount directive placed in the httpd.conf file that was incorrect (should have been WebAppDeploy). We also check if ServerName is set in httpd.conf and attempt to resolve and add it if it is not. In the Tomcat RPM's We moved the install directory back to /var/tomcat/... because some of our installers for other software and Location definitions in Apache http.conf require it to be there...We also set the default ports back to that of tomcat 3.2. This makes sense because we never really saw a reason to run tomcat 3.2 and 4.0 together on the same machine. We thought if we were deploying our Software which uses tomcat4.0 it would be the only tomcat servlet engine running on a machine. We modified the Permissions on the webapps directory to give tomcat group users rights to edit files in it, where the /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat script didn't provide theses permissions previously. We altered the sleep hack in /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat to wait longer because the tomcat-apache connector needs more time to stop. This makes restart work (although somewhat slower). We tried to do all this while properly updating all the documentation in the src and nonarch rpm's. Our question is: Would you like these RPM's to make available via Jakarta? For us it would be beneficial if we could point our administrators/installers to an external persistent source which we didn't need to maintain for getting the external packages (like Tomcat4.0) that are required prior to installing our projects packages.
