RE: [ANNOUNCE] Tomcat 4.0 Beta 2
Hi, Just finished to see how to rebuild the beta2 and I notice that many build.xml must be adapted to allow users with non-standard jar location to works. Attached are my patches. The bad news came from mod_webapp which didn't compile at all on my gcc (many bad structs declarations, missing includes in wa.h) Did Pier has commited all his change to cvs before beta2 was closed ? catalina-build.xml.diff jasper-build.xml.diff webapp-build.xml.diff webapps-webdav-build.xml.diff

My THANKS to Craig and all other participants, including the contributers for this milestone to happen. I am not quite ready to move on, but I will be very *glad* to play with this once I am avaialbe to do so. Craig, do you have any documentation plan for the installation and configuration as well? If so, would you share with us? Best regards, Pae -Original Message- From: Craig R.

It is about 90% complete, and covers the details of the many configuration elements that you can include. What is definitely needed is a more "User's Guide" approach to configuration, in addition to the reference material that is already present. While most folks involved in Tomcat like writing code better than they do documentation :-), anyone interested in writing good docs is very welcome to help. > Best regards, > > > Pae > Craig McClanahan

[ANNOUNCE] Tomcat 4.0 Beta 2
I'm pleased to announce the availability of the Beta 2 release of the next generation of the Tomcat servlet container, at: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0-b2/ Tomcat 4.0 beta 2 has many new features, including: * Tomcat 4.0 can now run web applications out of an unpacked directory or directly from a WAR file. * Web applications are now run under the control of a Java SecurityManager that can support fine-grained control over each web-app's access to system resources. * You can now specify a element in the server configuration file (server.xml) that defines default configuration information for contexts that are automatically configured. * An example Filter implementation that supports on-the-fly GZIP compression for clients that support it. * A servlet that implements all of the NCSA documented functionality for server side includes (*.shtml) except for the "exec" capability. * Standard resource factories for JavaMail related resources accessible via a JNDI InitialContext, compatible with J2EE Specification requirements. * Reflects the most up-to-date changes in the Servlet 2.3 and JSP 1.2 APIs that have been approved by the JSR-053 expert group, and will appear in the next published version of the corresponding specifications. In addition, the following major bug fixes are included: * Fixes for two reported security vulnerabilities (a "cross site scripting vulnerability" plus a "URL decoding vulnerability") * The JSP servlet (Jasper) that compiles and executes JSP pages now uses its own classloader its associated XML parser, which avoids potential conflicts with parsers included with a web application. * Bug fix updates for directory listings, the WebDAV support, binding to a single IP address (if requested), incorrectly named access log files, URL decoding improvements, form-based authentication, HTTP/1.1 chunking, isUserInRole(), JSP page parsing problems, and many other patches. See the Tomcat 4.0 Beta 2 Release Notes (RELEASE-NOTES-4.0-B2.txt) that are included in the top-level directory of the release for more detailed information. Craig McClanahan
