Re: How to use digital certificates
Do you mean... ?
X509Certificate[] certs;
certs=(X509Certificate[])request.getAttribute(javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate);
if(certs!=null) {
X509Certificate crt = certs[0];
// Use the cert here.
String subjectDNName = crt.getSubjectDN().getName();
System.out.println(Issuer: +crt.getIssuerDN().getName());
// And so on...
}
I developed a simple test servlet that may help you test your servlet
environment. If someone wishes it, I can contribute it to TC or send it

Re: getRemoteUser is returning null
AFAICT, getRemoteUser() returns a user name only if that user name has been sent via HTTP. Not with certificates. For certificates, see my post 1 minute ago.

Re: How to use digital certificates
I have developed a solution, where you can use client-certificates for user authentication. You can find information at http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7831 Currently an implementation for Standard LDAP and Windows-2000 ActiveDirectory is available. Using W2K-AD you might have troubles, since i have tested it only with two different client-certificates. Mainly you have to import the certificate in your LDAP Server, and then the user-mapping is done by my JNDIRealm* classes.

Re: web.xml init param
My Guess is that you've Misplaced, or misspelled the ShowMessage class somewhere. Remember that it is Case Sensitive.

Query on Connection Time out??
Hi all friends, I am using tomcat4.1.24 for my uploading software(swing for client interface and servlet).Iam facing problem with connection broken,During uploading of file if connection between local computer and remote computer broken then my software will give a message to user through pop up dialog box,but that dialog box appears after 3 or 4 minitues of connection broken that means as per my idea that Tomcat realease the connection after 3 or 4 minitues of connection broken .I have tried to rectify by configuring Connector element of server.xml file but couldn't slove my problem.Can any plz guide me am I correct that the delay in appearing of dialog box in case of connection broken due to below configuration of Tomcat in server.xml file or it may be due to any other reason.

Re: How to use digital certificates
Ok, everyone else is signing their replies. I can do that too ;-). Out-of-the-box, TC 4.1.24 has very limited support for x509 auth. Only the (deprecated) MemoryRealm actually supports it. Also, only the Stand-Alone JSSE Connector will correctly retrieve the x509 certs in the current release version (the Jk-Coyote Connector is fixed in the CVS, and the fixes for the Stand-Alone PureTLS Connector will show up before 4.1.25 comes out).

installing a servlet
Hello again, Yesterdays question was asked because I am unable to install and run a servlet (form mail servlet) from an apache Jk-Coyote enabled Tomcat 4.1.24. I have tried all the possible and imaginable paths and it always returns 404. If I run Tomcat standalone the servlet works just fine. I have been running Tomcat on my public servers for over two years. What got me was the upgrade to apache 2.0.x and Tomcat 4.1.x I am doing something wrong but despite my 2 years experience I can't find what and where. The logs aren't telling me anything useful. Once I get this sorted and working I will be releasing the form mail servlet under the GPL.

TomCat Daemon on Linux
I currently develop on a Win2K box where I simply run Tomcat in its own dos box. But I want to deploy on a linux Box, and following on from Yoav's advice that Tomcat can do everything I want, I don't need to worry about Apache. What I'm not sure on is how to start Tomcat as a daemon/service on the linux box. To be honest, I haven't tried to research it yet, it just popped into my head now and thought I'd ask. But from what I remember from when I was first reading up on it, I don't recall there being anything stating howto. Is it just a case of I start it up and have to devote a whole virtual terminal to it? Or can I run it in the background with ''? Or is there actually a way to make a service/daemon of it? A simple pointer to documentation would be greatly appreciated. MTiA K.L. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: TomCat Daemon on Linux
The rpm installation of tomcat includes a start up script that is placed in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ which allows tomcat to be started up on reboot. However, the service is not added by default. Tomcat can be made to start up by using chkconfig It's possible to write your own script, if you want to have a look at the script I can send you a copy of the script that the rpm installs.

Re: How to use digital certificates
Thanks for the reply.. let me clearly tell you the problem.. we use certificates generated by iPlanet Certificate Server. All the client(user) certificates are on a swipe card which are read by Gemplus card reader using USB port The problem is when the user swipes it, user should automatically be authenticated..(currently we have another web application running on iPlanet web server - which picks up username from the card and authenticates against LDAP). Is this possible in Tomcat? SSL is working fine - only problem is authentication.. Thanks Appa Bill Barker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok, everyone else is signing their replies. I can do that too ;-).

I do not know the iPlanet Certificate Server, we use the LDAP Server (openldap) from SuSE OpenExchange. *) The Browser sends the user-certificate to tomcat (standalone installation !!). I do not know, what you mean by the web-application pick the username, i think such an web-application can only get the certificate. *) JNDIRealmCertOpenExchange tries to lookup a user with this certificate *) If a user is found, the username of this ldap-entry is used for the resulting principal I am not aware of the protocol iPlanet uses, if it is standard LDAP you might have luck, else you have to write your own realm.

passing parameters to another JSP page
Hi, Any help would be highly appreciated! I'm wondering why it's NOT working passing parameters to another jsp page. I'm using Tomcat 4.0 Here is the sample jsp pages I used: Called.html: html head/head body jsp:include page=callee.jsp / jsp:param name=param2 value=value2 / jsp:param name=param3 value=value3 / /jsp:include Caller: param1: %= request.getParameter(param1) % param2: %= request.getParameter(param2) % param3: %= request.getParameter(param3) % /body /html Here is the JSP page being called: html head/head body Callee: param1: %= request.getAttribute(param1) % param2: %= request.getParameter(param2) % param3: %= request.getParameter(param3) % /body /html If the caller is called with the URL: http://135.252.32.142/SIX_XML/scriptJsp/caller.jsp?param1=aparam2=b the expected output would be: Callee: param1: a param2: value2 param3: value3 Caller: param1: a param2: b param3: null The issue is that I always get wrong result with Tomcat 4.0: Callee: param1: a param2: b param3: null Caller: param1: a param2: b param3: null Could anybody tell me what's wrong here? Does Tomcat need a special configuration to support passing parameters to another JSP page, or I need to use a latter version of Tomcat? Thanks much! - Alan S.

corrupt sessions
I have sometimes problems with corrupt sessions. Sometimes tomcat logs a EOFException and the servlet is not responding any more if a user wants to connect who has such a session. The browser is waiting endless for a response. Do you know a way to check the validity of a session and do you have hints how to avoid corrupt sessions? I store some hashtables and vectors in the session. Do I have to asure to call a finalizer, so the session can be stored correct? I have already tried to call request.getRequestedSessionId() but tomcat falls asleep before. I use org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager with Filestore at Tomcat 4.0.6 and 4.1.24 (both the same problem): Manager className=org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager debug=0 saveOnRestart=true maxActiveSessions=50 minIdleSwap=60 maxIdleSwap=120 maxIdleBackup=0 Store className=org.apache.catalina.session.FileStore/ /Manager Thanks for any reply Thomas - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: worker.properties
Hi - Please clarify: do you have multiple Tomcat instances, or just one? The only time you need to put more hosts in workers.properties is if you have MULTIPLE Tomcat instances. If you only have one Tomcat instance, you only need the following in workers.properties: # BEGIN workers.properties # Definition for Ajp13 worker worker.list=ajp13 worker.ajp13.port=8009 worker.ajp13.host=localhost worker.ajp13.type=ajp13 # END workers.properties Note that it is workers.properties, not worker.properties (note the missing s in your post...a typo?). Note also that for IIS, you need more than workers.properties...you also need a file called uriworkermap.properties. Workers.properties is not for the purpose of mapping virtual hosts...its only purpose is to tell the connector where to find Tomcat. If you have one Tomcat instance, and a workers.properties file like the one shown above, and you cannot get any host headers except localhost to work, your problem is in either or both of 1) defining/mapping virtual hosts on the web server side (IIS: uriworkermap.properties, Apache: JkMount), or 2) defining virtual hosts on the Tomcat side. Even if you have multiple Tomcat instances, I would suggest getting things to work for multiple virtual hosts using one Tomcat instance, then add the other Tomcat instances into the mix. Trying to get multiple Tomcat instances working with multiple virtual hosts all at once could easily become frustrating if you don't take it a step or piece at a time.

Re: [OT] best hardware config for Tomcat
The biggest effect on Tomcat's performance will be the architecture and design of your application. You can buy the biggest fastest server in the world, and have lousy performance if your application architecture is poor. If this is a production server, the absolute minimum I would consider for production, that is, for providing services that others pay me to provide, and providing those services in such a way as to have the highest uptime possible, is: Abs. minimum: P3-1.4 GHz (dual absolutely preferred) 1024 GB RAM 2 36GB SCSI drives, RAID 1 (mirrored) 100Mbps NIC Medium: Dual P3-1.4GHz 2GB RAM 3 36GB SCSI drives, RAID 5 (2 + spare = 72GB usable) Better: Dual P3-1.4 or higher 4GB RAM 3-5 36GB SCSI drives, RAID 5 Still Better: Dual P3-1.4 or higher 6GB RAM as much disk as you can provide Obviously, disk depends on how much you think you will need. My servers provide services to about 25 different clients. Each has their own Tomcat instance. My servers are dual P3, 6GB RAM, 800GB-1TB disk in RAID-5 with parity and hot spare, dual everything (dual NIC, dual power supply, dual fans, etc). Don't get bogged down in desktop PC terminology like DDR RAM, etcfor servers that sort of stuff is irrelevant. You want stability, not speed...having the fastest CPU or the fastest RAM technology does you nothing if your server keeps going down. For servers (if you're serious about it being a server), you want redundancy, parity and error-checking and spares over everything else. If it were up to me, I would take a budget of X dollars and trade performance specs like MHz and GB for redundancy, all day. Drop back on CPU and RAM if it means you can get RAID disk (hardware RAID is better than software RAID), redundant power supplies, etc. If all you are doing is looking to buy a desktop PC and call it a server, then just buy whatever you want...it won't really matter, and sooner or later your server will go down. Even then, pay attention to the architecture and design of your application, and test it under load...that will make more of a difference than jacking up some RAM or CPU hardware.

Howdy,
From org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteAdapter:
// Additional URI normalization and validation is needed for
security
// reasons on Tomcat 4.0.x
if (connector.getUseURIValidationHack()) {
String uri = validate(request.getRequestURI());
if (uri == null) {
res.setStatus(400);

} else {
req.requestURI().setString(uri);

RE: passing parameters to another JSP page
There is a little typo in your jsp:include which screws up the rest of your jsp. For your include-action you use an empty-element tag (ending with /) that by definiton contains no child elements. Therefore, the params do not belong to the include and are never passed on to the included jsp.

how to refuse to start a context?
My Servlet 2.3 webapp has a ServletContextListener which does some initial setup for my database (connection pools, etc). Having established a connection, I now want it to ask the database which version of the schema it's running and compare that to the version of the webapp itself (stored as a context init parameter). The idea is to refuse to run unless the server and database versions match. This part is easy. The problem is that I can't return an error condition since contextInitialized() returns void, and I can't throw a checked exception because the interface isn't declared to do so ... am I missing something? How can I shut down, presumably with some sensible message to the log file, on such a mismatch?

RE: java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null'
Hi, If you have declared your database connection pools ast the GlobalNamingResource level, but do not have your contexts declarared in server.xml, you probably need to have context.xml files in your META-INF subdirectory which contain your ResourceLink definitions for the context. HTH -Original Message- From: Michael Holly [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 June 2003 17:21 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null' In trying to make the move to automate my testing I have come up against a problem. First some background. I am running Tomcat 4.1.18, Java 1.3.1, Win 2k Part of getting on automated testing was getting the ANT build to undeploy and then redeploy the war after it got created. In addition, I decided that it was more convenient to have the Test classes located in myapp.war instead of a seperate war. Part of getting this dynamic undeploy/deploy cycle to work was removing the context from the server.xml. The reason I want to do this is I have 2 connection pools located there. In a dynamic deploy tomcat generates it's own context for the app. I found there were three ways I could do this. #1. put the connection pool into the GlobalNamingResources section of server.xml #2. create a $APP_NAME.xml file that contains the context of the app and put it into $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps. Both the Tomcat manager and Admin apps do this. #3. Possibly put the context info in the web.xml file for the app. I have tried both 1 and 2 and I am getting a java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null' error when the DBCP is accessed. The classes12.jar file is located in $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib. It has been renamed from .zip to .jar Is there something special that I have to do to make the pools available to my application? As you can tell from the included files I am using configuring a connection pool for two different connections. Below are my files for Option #2 (the one I would like to go with). Do I have the resource-ref defined correctly? Is there something I am missing? Some Observations. The app seems to deploy correctly.

RE: configuration
Howdy, 2 questions: - I usually copy/paste all the library .jar files into my jdk/lib and choose not to overwrite (tools.jar). Then I can compile servlets w/o problem. This is one of those shortcuts that, while apparently harmless, can cause nightmarish headaches. For example, if you override the XML APIs with a bad version. Don't do the above. Use ant. Keep the JDK as it is, keep the tomcat libraries as they are. The source organization, build processes, etc, are described here: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/index.html - I'd like to just drop a servlet into a directory, restart the service and test servlets.

I've tried dropping the same servlet on 4.1 in all of them but it still won't load. Create a test or temp (or whatever you want to call it) webapp. Create a WEB-INF directory under that webapp, and copy a plain web.xml (e.g. the one from $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT) into the WEB-INF directory. Create a classes directory under WEB-INF. That's where you'll copy your compiled servlets. Comment in the invoker servlet mapping in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml. Make sure you context is marked as reloadable in server.xml. Then you'll be able to access servlets as http://yourhost:yourport/test/servlet/[servletClassName] (Where test is your webapp name).

Re: Upgrade or new install?
Hello - I can't really address your questions relating to MySQL, but I can help you out relating to Tomcat. In my opinion, this is how I would proceed given your situation: - stop Tomcat 4.1.18. Make sure it doesn't start on boot by removing the tomcat startup script from the boot sequence (we can help you on this if you need it) - download the binary install of the latest JDK. Unpack it, move it to a reasonable location, and set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to its location - download the binary install of Tomcat 4.1.24. Unpack it, move it to a reasonable location, like /usr/local/tomcat-4124, and set the CATALINA_HOME environment variable to its location - upgrade your MySQL (not sure on the best way to suggest you do this) - get the latest MySQL JDBC driver, or the one that is compatible with MySQL 4.0.13, copy the .jar file to CATALINA_HOME/tomcat/common/lib My HOWTOs describe steps 2 and 3 above: http://www.johnturner.com/howto. The version numbers for the JDK and Tomcat are a little old, but the steps are the same. Ignore the sections on installing Apache and installing a Connector. Then, to start Tomcat, all you would do is use $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh from the command line. You might consider changing server.xml to use port 80 instead of 8080 to make things easier.

Re: Configuring session Id in URL
Ouch! But the answer is easy. Filters with HttpServletResponseWrapper. Here
is a quick example:
public class NoRewriteFilter implements Filter {
public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig)
throws ServletException {
;
}
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request,
ServletResponse response,
FilterChain chain)
throws IOException,
ServletException {
if (canIgnoreRewrite(request)) {
response = new
HttpServletResponseWrapper((HttpServletResponse)response) {
public String encodeRedirectUrl(String url) {
return url;
}
public String encodeRedirectURL(String url) {
return url;
}
public String encodeUrl(String url) {
return url;
}
public String encodeURL(String url) {
return url;
}
}
chain.doFilter(request,response);
}
public void destroy() {
; // no-op
}
protected boolean canIgnoreRewrite(ServletRequest request) {
HttpServletRequest r = (HttpServletRequest)request;
String agent = r.getHeader(user-agent);
if (agent!=null)
return false;
agent = agent.toLowerCase();
return agent.indexOf(googlebot)-1;
}
}

Howdy, No. Tomcat acts according the to the servlet specification, which says if cookies can't be used (or sometimes even if they can, it's up to the container), jsessionid must be on the URL.

mod_jk only loadbalancing to one machine
Hi,
My problem in brief: one RedHat Linux box running apache with mod_jk
trying to do load balancing to four boxes behind it. All requests only
get sent to one of the boxes. The logs look good; if I remove that box
from the config., it will pick one of the other three and send all
requests there. It sticks with whatever box it picks even after a service
stop and start.
I've looked all over the web and my load balancing configuration looks
just like everyone else's from all I can see.
Boxes are all running RedHat Linux Enterprise ES 2.1. The four background
boxes are running tomcat4-4.1.24-full.2jpp .
Load-balancing box is running apache 1.3.27 (built with OpenSSL 0.9.7b and
CFLAGS=-DHARD_SERVER_LIMIT=1024), and mod_jk 4.1.24.
I have watched /usr/local/www/mod_jl.log, and all looks normal. I have it
running debug so it gets very long very rapidly. I'll include it right
after startup at the bottom though.
At the moment, everything is going to server-c (worker3). That has
persisted across several service stop and service start's, and a reboot.
OBTW, after poking around websites and list archives, I've tried the
worker.list being just loadbalancer and also having
loadbalancer,worker1,worker2,worker3,worker4 -- either way, same result
(although the first way produces a shorter mod_jk.log by far).

Creating mod_jk.so from src for HP-UX
My goal is to have a working version of Apache 1.3.27 that invokes Tomcat 4.1.24 using mod_jk, so that the application's JSP files are invoked correctly from the Apache server. At this point, I have Apache installed and working, Tomcat installed and working, independently, but not the mod_jk. I can't get a mod_jk.so file compiled from the source file, jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk-1.2.4-src.tar.gz, provided on the Tomcat web site. I have tried to read all available documentation on the installation of mod_jk for Tomcat 4.1.24 and Apache 1.3.27 and earlier releases of both. I understand that mod_jk is now in the connectors download. I am working on HP-UX, so don't believe any of the binaries with work for me. So I am trying to build mod_jk.so from source. I have searched the information in the mail archive, read the John Turner's Howto, and all of the howto's provided by Apache and Jakarta projects. The instructions don't apply because the files aren't in the distribution that I can find. The instructions state that I should run configure. However, there is no configure. Other information indicates that I should make buildconf.sh executable and run it. I have tried that. I have libtools installed from apr-0.9.3, but it can't find libtoolize in that. I have put this path to libtool on both the path and the classpath, still no luck. I error on each statement in the buildconf.sh script. Exact error: $ ./buildconf.sh libtoolize --force --automake --copy ./buildconf.sh[4]: libtoolize: not found. aclocal ./buildconf.sh[8]: aclocal: not found. automake -a --foreign -i --copy ./buildconf.sh[10]: automake: not found. autoconf ./buildconf.sh[12]: autoconf: not found. Other instructions state that I should run ant on the entire connector directory. After correcting the file names on many files (java or properties was cut off because of length), I was able to successfully run ant. However, this does not yield a mod_jk.so, nor does it yield a working configure file anywhere in the jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.24-src directory. Just so that you know I am not a complete idiot, I was able to follow the instructions to create the mod_jk.so file using Tomcat 3.3.1a final. Since mod_jk is now separated and there is no configure file among the source, those instructions and experience don't apply. What next? What are working instructions for building the mod_jk.so library on HP -UX that use the available software in the source bundle?

RE: mod_jk only loadbalancing to one machine
I had the same problem with load balancing using mod_jk2. I found that changing the lb_factor made a difference. If I set the lb_factor in each of my connector descriptors, all requests went to the last linux box that was defined. I have 3 instances to load balance, this is what I did for now: Connector port -- 8009 on machine1 -- lb_factor=2 Connector port -- 8019 on machine1 -- lb_factor=2 Connector port -- 8009 on machine2 -- lb_factor=1 It doesn't give me the straight 'round robin', but it does mix it up at least. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Rick Carter Sent: Friday, June 20, 2003 11:09 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Jeff Cousineau Subject: mod_jk only loadbalancing to one machine Hi, My problem in brief: one RedHat Linux box running apache with mod_jk trying to do load balancing to four boxes behind it.

I can't get a mod_jk.so file compiled from the source file, jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk-1.2.4-src.tar.gz, provided on the Tomcat web site. I have tried to read all available documentation on the installation of mod_jk for Tomcat 4.1.24 and Apache 1.3.27 and earlier releases of both. I understand that mod_jk is now in the connectors download. I am working on HP-UX, so don't believe any of the binaries with work for me. So I am trying to build mod_jk.so from source. I have searched the information in the mail archive, read the John Turner's Howto, and all of the howto's provided by Apache and Jakarta projects. The instructions don't apply because the files aren't in the distribution that I can find. The instructions state that I should run configure. However, there is no configure. Other information indicates that I should make buildconf.sh executable and run it. I have tried that. I have libtools installed from apr-0.9.3, but it can't find libtoolize in that. I have put this path to libtool on both the path and the classpath, still no luck. I error on each statement in the buildconf.sh script. Exact error: $ ./buildconf.sh libtoolize --force --automake --copy ./buildconf.sh[4]: libtoolize: not found. aclocal ./buildconf.sh[8]: aclocal: not found. automake -a --foreign -i --copy ./buildconf.sh[10]: automake: not found. autoconf ./buildconf.sh[12]: autoconf: not found. Other instructions state that I should run ant on the entire connector directory. After correcting the file names on many files (java or properties was cut off because of length), I was able to successfully run ant. However, this does not yield a mod_jk.so, nor does it yield a working configure file anywhere in the jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.24-src directory. Just so that you know I am not a complete idiot, I was able to follow the instructions to create the mod_jk.so file using Tomcat 3.3.1a final. Since mod_jk is now separated and there is no configure file among the source, those instructions and experience don't apply. What next? What are working instructions for building the mod_jk.so library on HP -UX that use the available software in the source bundle?

basic logging question
Hello every one, I need to log messages using either tomcat logger or log4j. I have added Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger verbosity=1 prefix=localhost_gnomon_log. suffix=.txt timestamp=true/ under the Context tag and System.out.println(msg); works and prints in the above named file, but i want to use the methods of org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger or log4j's Logger class so that i can turn logging on and off and can use various levels like debug,info,warn,errors etc. I tried to import org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger in java servlet, but it says class not found. I do have commons-logging under server-root/common/lib folder. Please guide me where am i going wrong? also if anyone who has log4j under tomcat, i would appreciate their guidance in setting log4j. i did create a example.cf file which created configuration information for log4j and placed it under WEB-INF/classes folder, but log4j does not picks the configuration. Any ideas would be welcomed. Thanks - Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month!

Hello, When an xml string is passed as an input to a Servlet like: http://server/context/servlet?xmlString=?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?testHello/test I am not able to read with request.getParameter(xmlString). Looks like Tomcat 4 doesn't like = in the parameter value. (Because it works with Tomcat 3.2) Can anyone please suggest analternative?

RE: Sending xml string as input to servlet
Howdy, You are responsible for URL-encoding the query string. Passing it on the query string is not that good an idea anyways because of the limited length. You're better off passing it as a request parameter (still URL-encoded) in a POST request.

Tim,
Thanks for the quick response. That works perfectly.
(if you change the != to == in the canIgnoreRewrite routine.)
I figured filters were involved, but I couldn't quite figure it out.

Ouch! But the answer is easy. Filters with HttpServletResponseWrapper.
Here is a quick example:
public class NoRewriteFilter implements Filter {
public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig)
throws ServletException {
;
}
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request,
ServletResponse response,
FilterChain chain)
throws IOException,
ServletException {
if (canIgnoreRewrite(request)) {
response = new
HttpServletResponseWrapper((HttpServletResponse)response) {
public String encodeRedirectUrl(String url) {
return url;
}
public String encodeRedirectURL(String url) {
return url;
}
public String encodeUrl(String url) {
return url;
}
public String encodeURL(String url) {
return url;
}
}
chain.doFilter(request,response);
}
public void destroy() {
; // no-op
}
protected boolean canIgnoreRewrite(ServletRequest request) {
HttpServletRequest r = (HttpServletRequest)request;
String agent = r.getHeader(user-agent);
if (agent!=null)
return false;
agent = agent.toLowerCase();
return agent.indexOf(googlebot)-1;
}
}

my entire site because the URLs have the jsessionid in them. I'd
like to support
browsers with cookies turned off, but at the same time not send the
jsessionids

I've looked around and can't seem to even the question anywhere, let

Re: FTP server recommendation
I have used WAR FTP for the past few years. It is a very good server. It allows you to assign a person to a specific directory based on their login as opposed to MSFT that requires a different IP address for each specific user. The other benefit is you don't need to pollute your windows domain with unknown users, just put them in the WAR server. Much more secure. Dov Rosenberg P.s.

I am using win2k, Tomcat 4.0.x and IIS thru isapi. What I am trying to do is to create two seperate containers with same application on each of them. How can I set it up? so it will do round robin by itself. For example, if user types: http://localhost/examples/servlet/hello, it will go to either http://localhost/example1/servlet/hello or http://localhost/example2/servlet/hello. As you know, example1 and example 2 arre two containers. Any comments? thanks, jay
How do I run two tomcat on one NT

How to serialize an object which is put in the session ?
I have a class which implements the HttpSessionBindingListener interface. I want to serialize this object and all sessions when the context is reloaded. It is essential because three deveopers are using the same server and if ine user compiles a servlet all users get a nullpointer exception. I am using Tomcat 4.1.18. The class implements the Serializable interface. But it is throwing Nullpointer exception after reload. How to know that the object and session is saved when the context is reloaded. I tried changing the debugging levels of Engine element and Context element. Still Tomcat is not giving any debug information about what it is oing when the context is reloaded. The 4.0.3 version gves better logs. Antony _ Add photos to your messages with MSN 8.

Re: mod_jk only loadbalancing to one machine
AFAIK, load balancing only works well with Apache-2 using the 'worker' MPM.
With the 'pre-fork' MPM (which includes Apache-1.3.x on *nix systems), each
child has it's own view of the current lb state, so they still tend to
bunch.
The 'pre-fork' problem probably won't be fixed in mod_jk. Hopefully, it
will get addressed in mod_jk2 (since it has the tools to do it already, all
that is missing is the code :).
Rick Carter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi,
My problem in brief: one RedHat Linux box running apache with mod_jk
trying to do load balancing to four boxes behind it. All requests only
get sent to one of the boxes. The logs look good; if I remove that box
from the config., it will pick one of the other three and send all
requests there. It sticks with whatever box it picks even after a service
stop and start.
I've looked all over the web and my load balancing configuration looks
just like everyone else's from all I can see.
Boxes are all running RedHat Linux Enterprise ES 2.1. The four background
boxes are running tomcat4-4.1.24-full.2jpp .
Load-balancing box is running apache 1.3.27 (built with OpenSSL 0.9.7b and
CFLAGS=-DHARD_SERVER_LIMIT=1024), and mod_jk 4.1.24.
I have watched /usr/local/www/mod_jl.log, and all looks normal. I have it
running debug so it gets very long very rapidly. I'll include it right
after startup at the bottom though.
At the moment, everything is going to server-c (worker3). That has
persisted across several service stop and service start's, and a reboot.
OBTW, after poking around websites and list archives, I've tried the
worker.list being just loadbalancer and also having
loadbalancer,worker1,worker2,worker3,worker4 -- either way, same result
(although the first way produces a shorter mod_jk.log by far).

Larry is correct. The worker is configurable.

If you use the auto-generation, your worker will always be named ajp13. If you need something else, you need to configure things manually. The ApacheConfig classes are a convenience, not a requirement, and could easily go away in the future (they're not even used for JK2 which is where the current dev efforts are). The complaints you are getting when you change or remove workers.properties are from Apache and mod_jk, not Tomcat.
