RE: monitoring memory in Tomcat
Hi, 1) How can I encourage or unfetter Tomcat so that it will allocate itself more memory for my Java process (what is the restriction and where is it handled). You can increase the heap size of the VM running tomcat. This can be done by adding the appropriated command line option to java.exe e.g. -mx96m in the bin/tomcat script. Don't know if there is a better way. This will of course not fix your problem if you have a true mem leak although.

RE: Multiple Tomcats with SSL?
I don't think you can do that with Tomcat 3.1 (running standalone it doesn't support SSL and I haven't tried connecting it to an SSL Apache). So I think your best bet would be to get Tomcat 3.2b7. I know... it's still beta but everyone around here seem to be saying that it's much better than even the release of 3.1 (apart from the fact that 3.1 doesn't support SSL on the standalone). If you decide to use 3.2 you have to configure your server.xml so that you add connectors for each port. Each connector tag needs to look something like this: Connector className="org.apache.tomcat.service.PoolTcpConnector" Parameter name="handler" value="org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler"/ Parameter name="port" value="443"/ Parameter name="socketFactory" value="org.apache.tomcat.net.SSLSocketFactory" / Parameter name="secure" value="true"/ Parameter name="clientAuth" value="false"/ Parameter name="keystore" value="C:/Documents and Settings/stefanf/.keystore" / Parameter name="keypass" value="mypassword" / /Connector There are a few things to keep in mind if you do this: 1) You have to build Tomcat from source and make sure you have all JSSE jars in your classpath. The binary version is built on a setup that does not have JSSE (nobody seems to know why...) 2) Before you build the source version of Tomcat you need to change your java.security file. 3) You need to generate a keystore which keeps your server certificate under the alias Tomcat. These information can be found in the server.xml document. Just check it out if you need more info.

AW: JSP and automatic session id URL rewriting
Even if it is possible, but I wouldn't do it.
You would have to parse your output after it is generated
and before you really send it to the requesting client.
The parsing has to be quite flexible to recognise links
to external site as it is not a good practice to include
the session id in links to external sites. (That would
open the door to steal the session).
There are several ways to code URL's in a way that it
is hard to say which site will be the target. Just two
examples:
1:
base href="some.server.domain"a href="/some/image.gif"/a
2:
script
someServer = 'someServer';
someFunction() {
return someServer + '/some/image.gif';
}
/script
a href="javasript:someFunction()"
So this leads to quite some effort in development (or
organisation, if you try to come around this by enforcing
apropriate policies four your web developers) and
performance penalty. And I bet: you will never be shure
if there isn't a whole anywhere.

RE: System properties
Rachel, Thanks for that, about the static initializers... The classes that use them are not servlets, merely utility classes are used in the web application and also elsewhere. For instance, a class, or series of classes that deal with database connection pooling, could conceiveably have a configuration file to let them know what pools to set up, min and max connections, where the server is, what the driver class is, etc. And these classes are useful in other apps, not only in web applications. Now of course you can hard code into the class, the file to load, but this is ugly, it is nicer to say "java -Ddb.properties=/home/stuart/db.properties".

Tomcat + JNI
Hi, I have just installed Apache1.3.14 + modssl + tomcat 3.2b5 on Solaris 2.6 and am trying to call a native method from my servlet (this worked fine under JavaWebServer2.0). The shared library is definitely being loaded (ie no exception is thrown when I tried to load it separately, the lib is on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc) but "UnsatisfiedLinkError" is still being thrown indicating the implementation of the native method is not found. I havent done anything special to tomcat for JNI, I was a bit baffled by the purpose jni_server.xml and jni_workers.properties files! I only need to call a C program from within a class called by the servlet, don't need to call java methods from the native code. Has anyone come across anything like this? Many thanks, Mike.
Re: install problem - where is mod_jserv
This is a FAQ. You must download the *src* package to get these classes! Just download the binary, use that to install tomcat, then download the src package and get the jserv or jk adapters from there... On a side note, I installed JRun yesterday to benchmark some things against Tomcat (I need to justify the decision to go with Tomcat, so I needed something to measure against). One cool thing is does is that the interfacing to Apache is done via a shipped servlet with JRun that you run within the JRun server, give it some parameters, and then it compiles a new module for Apache and loads it in! I was amazed, it actually worked and didn't get anything wrong... Be slick to be able to match that ability, and it would end questions like this ;-) -- Michael J.

John Ellis wrote:
According to the dtd:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.2.dtd
There is an "env-entry" tag that has name-value pairs like you mentioned. The
version of tomcat that I am using (3.1) did not seem to being doing anything
with this entry. It does seem like it would be the perfect place for exactly
what you are talking about.
The env-entry, resource-ref, and ejb-ref values in the deployment descriptor
are for use when you are running a servlet container inside a J2EE server. Tomcat
doesn't support them when running standalone.
A good way to introduce application-wide initialization parameters, though, is to
use the context-param element. Values you enter here can be retrieved from any
servlet or JSP page in the web app like this:
String value = getServletContext().getInitParameter("name");
Does anyone know what this entry is (the dtd description did not specifically
say how to get these values back -- I am assuming System.getProperties())? Does
anyone know if more current version of tomcat support it? Will future versions?
You would not really want to use system properties for this in the first place.
What would you do if you're running two different web apps in the same servlet
container, and they both needed a property named "abc"?

Tomcat not receiving POST requests with IIS
Hi, I've followed the "Tomcat IIS HowTo" to make
Tomcat collaborate with IIS. Everything went fine when I send GET requests. When
the request are POST the servlet doesn't get the parameters.
In order to test this I created a simple servlet
that prints a parameter I sent. When I call the servlet through IIS the POST
returns nulls instead of the value I sent.
Any ideas?
Thanks

re: headers, cookies, redirect
I'm not particularly grounded in web development, so this may
not be specific to Tomcat. I'm hoping someone can explain how
this works.
I can get cookies sent back to the browser when performing a
redirect if I set them _after_ I issue the redirect. That is, if
I write:
%
response.sendRedirect("bar.jsp");
response.addCookie(new Cookie("baz","quux"));

Can someone please explain (or point to a resource) why a cookie
doesn't "stick" unless I set it after I specify the redirect?
Thanks in advance,

Can't remove Tomcat 3.1 NT Service
Title: Can't remove Tomcat 3.1 NT Service Hello everyone, I added Tomcat 3.1 as a service (supposedly sucessfully, but it wouldn't serv servlets) and then removed it (supposedly sucessfully also). Now whenever I try to start Tomcat via the startup.bat file in the bin dir, it tells me I have to remove the service. There is no service in the services control panel, and there is no registry key in the services group that I can find. Can someone please tell me how to get rid of this problem short of a reinstall of WIN2k Server? Thanks in advance for your help!

This should not work, because you're not allowed to modify the HTTP headers
after calling sendRedirect().
The fact that this works, and that the opposite order (which is the correct one)
fails are bugs in Tomcat 3.1. You should really really really be using 3.2 or
later.

Tomcat ServerSocket Dies

Log File Sizes and Growth
I read through all the documentation pages more than once but couldn't find any comments about how log files are managed. For example, if there are any size limits on the TomCat log files (i.e., jasper.log, servlet.log, etc.); or, if there are limits, whether or not Tomcat will create a series of related log files, and so on and so on. If this is documented somewhere, where can I find it? If not, I will appreciate any info you might have. As far as I know, TomCat does not have file-size limits, but that's my guess. Thank you in advance! - Julia Walker

Thank you in advance! You are correct on your guess ... Tomcat has no built-in limits on how big the log files will get. However, you have indirect control over this by what kinds of debugging detail you request in your logger configurations in server.xml. For Tomcat 3.x, all of the loggers simply append to the configured filenames, so you have to periodically shut down and restart Tomcat to replace the old logs with new empty ones. In Tomcat 4.0, all of the standard loggers include the current date in their filenames for you, and switch automatically on the first entry to that log file after each midnight. - Julia Walker Craig McClanahan

precompiling jsps
Using Tomcat, is there a way like in RESIN, to precompile all jsps ? Regards, Stephane
Re: Servlet invoker woes - servlet-mapping /servlets/* to invoker fails on 3.2
As of Tomcat 3.2-b8 (to be created on Monday), you will be able to set a parameter in the server.xml file to override the prefix used by the invoker servlet. There is an entry that looks like this: RequestInterceptor className="org.apache.tomcat.request.InvokerInterceptor" debug="0" prefix="/servlet/" / and you can change the prefix attribute to "/servlets/" for your particular case. In Tomcat 4.0, the ability to configure global defaults in the "conf/web.xml" file is restored to the way it worked in Tomcat 3.1 -- it is much more intuitive for things like this. Craig McClanahan Rachel Greenham wrote: As subject: Our website uses a large number of servlets reference through URLs of the form /servlets/fully-qualified-class-name. We got this to work on Tomcat 3.1 by putting in a servlet-mapping tag in the webapp's WEB-INF file thus: servlet-mapping !-- Set up a mapping to allow any URL where the path starts "/servlets/" to be invoked as a servlet. This saves us having to give all our servlets aliases and rewriting all the jphtml scripts to match! -- servlet-name invoker /servlet-name url-pattern /servlets/* /url-pattern /servlet-mapping However, this doesn't work in Tomcat 3.2 beta 7. Instead I have had to alter the RequestInterceptor line for the invoker in $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml thus, so I can get the site working today at least: RequestInterceptor className="org.apache.tomcat.request.InvokerInterceptor" debug="0" prefix="/servlets/" / Furthermore, I *had* to take out the servlet-mapping tag in the web.xml file as well or it still wouldn't work, which means I can't use the same web.xml across both versions, which creates administration headaches. Also, this way, there's no longer a request interceptor for /servlet/* which means, for example, the URLs to the servlets in the "examples" webapp no longer work. In other words, this configuration change is global to the servlet container, and can break other web applications running on it. Also, I don't know if it's guaranteed even to work on other servlet containers. My question is: What is the *right* thing to do here, for maximum compatibility? Is the use of actual servlet class names in URLs now supposed to be deprecated and not-to-be relied upon? Should we be using servlet aliases consistently now? In which case we do after all need to go through all our HTML files and other scripts changing URLs to use servlet aliases for all our servlets. Personally I suspect this is the right way, and the end result would be a cleaner webapp, but the person who tells our web designers to do the changes is not going to be popular! OR... Is the current Tomcat 3.2 beta 7 behaviour wrong? OR... Is there a more definitive way of doing this servlet mapping? I thought the servlet-mapping tag in WEB-INF/web.xml was unproblematic myself. -- Rachel

Requesting / hangs Tomcat with no static interceptor?
I'm using Tomcat 3.2b7 (also happens under 3.2b6) and I'm trying to run a slightly cut-down version. In particular, I don't want to serve any static files, show any directories etc. I thought that to do this, I could remove the line: RequestInterceptor className="org.apache.tomcat.request.StaticInterceptor" / from server.xml. Unfortunately, this seems to mean that a request for / on the server sends Tomcat into a tight loop (Java takes up 99% of my CPU). Any ideas? Is removing the StaticInterceptor just a really bad idea? Win2K, JDK1.3 btw. Jon

The default entry looks like this: RequestInterceptor className="org.apache.tomcat.request.StaticInterceptor" debug="0" suppress="false" / Change the suppress attribute to true, and Tomcat will return an error instead of a directory listing when no welcome file is present.

RE: [Basic] JSP help!
1. In a jsp you can use response.sendRedirect("URL") to send the browser
an instruction to open another page. Forward does like you say - totally a
server thing.
2. I believe it is request.getContextPath
3. Go to the Java site (www.javasoft.com) and go to their tutorial or search
on google for Java Tutorial and you will find a wealth of tutorial info.
