java.util.logging and tomcat
Just wondering if anybody here has any experience on using java.util.logging with tomcat? I was under the impression that logged lines (and System.out) would go to the tomcat_localhost log, but it seems I am mistaken. Is there something I should adjust in my web.xml or server.xml?

Re: JRun - maybe off topic
Steve, True. JRun features a web connector. It means you can plug any web server (Apache, IIS, Netscape, Zeussee Jrun doc for full list!) to jrun servers..see jrun cluster architecture too! For example you can have 10 apache as a front to 1or several jrun servers.Moreover Jrun features a java web server you can disable Xavier Steve Harris a écrit: So can jrun be split off and run on a sperate box from apache like I can with tomcat ?

Authentication - based on request parameters
I've developed a authentication mechanism on my own because I could not figure out how to make authentication based on some request - parameters. This is what I've implemented: Whenever the user makes a request, the site parameter plus the path is used to figure out whether the user has the rights to access the path on that site. If not I sent him to a login - page, and after that back to the initially requested page. For instance: 1) The user requests: myTomcat:8080/MyApp/saveEditedPage.action?site=MySite 2) I figure out whether saveEditedPage needs login. If it does, then I check whether the user has previously logged in. If not the user is sent to the login page. 3) When the user has logged in. The rights for the user for the site=MySite is checked. If the user may enter he is sent the request is carried out. I have finally got it to work, but then it stroke me that I maybe could use the built in security - mechanism in tomcat. Here is my idea: I make a subclass of - or wraps HttpServletRequest, with my own class that overwrites the isUserInRole(String) method. So that the isUserInRole method could use some of the parameters from the request to make the finegrained access-control. (That is to use the site parameter). Does that sound possible or can't HttpServletRequest be subclassed like that? Or am I just plain stupid and could have saved me from a lot of hours of work by using a built in mechanism?

Re: Configuring server.xml for SSL breaks Tomcat
Matt, 2 suggestions: 1. Upgrade your JDK to 1.4.x. JSSE is now integrated with the Java Runtime and, you never know, this step alone might fix your problem. 2.

Re: Authentication - based on request parameters
Morten,
HttpServletRequest is simply an interface. If you wanted to subclass it,
you would have to implement every member of the interface. However, you
could do this easily enough by passing every method that you didn't want to
implement to the original request object, for example:
public class MySpecialHttpServletRequest implements HttpServletRequest
{
private HttpServletRequest origRequest;
public MySpecialHttpServletRequest(HttpServletRequest origRequest)
{
this.origRequest = origRequest;
}
public String getAuthType()
{
return origRequest.getAuthType();
}
etc.
public boolean isUserInRole(String role)
{
// Do your own stuff
}
}
And then in your JSP you would have something like
%
request = new MySpecialHttpServletRequest(request);
%
However, if I were thinking of implementing an entire J2EE interface simply
to handle a single method, I'd be questioning whether I was going in the
right direction. If you have something that is working, you may want to
consider keeping it. Alternatively, why not try to use Tomcat's role-based
security architecture rather than overriding it?
Something else that occurs to me is that your security model appears to
depend on a GET parameter in the request (?site=MySite). A client could
easily change this value to circumvent your security. A better model is
that your logon page sets a value in the Session object to identify the
user. Then the security depends on a very long, random session ID and it is
vanishingly unlikely that a client will be able to change this ID (either in
a URL or a cookie) and, by chance, hit on a valid session ID belonging to
another user.

Re: Authentication - based on request parameters
The problem is that your model does not seem to be based on a secret and
site names don't have a lot of entropy. I don't know enough about your
model to give you examples of possible attacks, but it seems to be similar
to an access control model where you ask to people to enter their user ID
but no password. Saying Oh, the client has to know a valid user name to
get in would not be enough to make this a secure model. If you store the
remote site information in the Session, this information is stored-server
side and a client never even gets the chance to have a go at circumventing
it.
The role model can be made to work. You have a list of clients, or sites,
and you assign them roles. You create a table of role-to-permissions or
simply declare the required roles in your JSP. Then in your pages make the
following access check:
// This gives MyApp/saveEditedPage.action in your original example; you
may also use
// getServletPath() to give you saveEditedPage.action
String requestURI = request.getRequestURI();
// Implement this method yourself
String[] permittedRoles = getPermittedRoles(requestURI);
boolean accessAllowed = false;
for (int i = 0; i permittedRoles.length; i++)
{
if (request.isUserInRole(permittedRoles[i]))
{
accessAllowed = true;
break;
}
}
This is simply an example, of course, and I don't know whether such a scheme
would work for you.

One or more tomcats ?
Hi, Before, we had one tomcat for our 10 applications. We have tried to have 5 tomcats in parallel and 2 applications per tomcat. Result : We've got the impression that the applications are faster than before. Anybody tried this ? What do u think about having only one tomcat or severals ?
Re: Authentication - based on request parameters
Here is my requirements for the security mechanism:
The whole thing is about making secured rooms for groups of user.
1) It should be possible to make new sites / groups while the application
is running.
2) The sites has members, and only these should be allowed to do some of
the restricted requests.
3) Some sites may be totally open, so that everyone can do anything without
logging in.
4) All of this is decided while the application is running.
5) One user may be administrator of 1 group and not allowed to do anything
in another.
So for instance
the request:
TomcatServer:8080/MyApp/restrictedRequest.action?site=closedSite
would result in that the user is required to login using a login-screen,
because closedSite is defined as closed.
while the request:
TomcatServer:8080/MyApp/restrictedRequest.action?site=openSite
Would not result in that the user has to login, because the openSite is
defined as total open.

RE: Authentication - based on request parameters
Morten,
I missed the orginal post but noticed in a later message you rejected the
Tomcat role-based model as too coarse grained. If you use a JDBC based
security model you can assign more than one role to a user. I have used
this to good effect with the following header code in controlled pages:
%@ page import=java.sql.* %
%@ taglib uri=http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/request-1.0; prefix=req
%
%@ taglib uri=http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/response-1.0; prefix=rsp
%
% Class.forName(org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver); %
req:request id=rq/
%
boolean validRole = false;
%
req:isUserInRole role=leader
%
validRole = true;
%
/req:isUserInRole
%
if (!validRole)
{
System.out.println(access is not allowed);
%
rsp:sendError error=SC_FORBIDDEN reset=true/
rsp:skipPage/
%
}
%
HTML
insert the rest of your page here. This page is restricted to users
who have been assigned both the member and the leader roles.
The requirement for assignment to the member role comes from your web app's
web.xml file thus
security-constraint
web-resource-collection
web-resource-nameScoutGroup-Secure/web-resource-name
url-pattern/members/*/url-pattern
/web-resource-collection
auth-constraint
role-namemember/role-name
/auth-constraint
user-data-constraint
transport-guaranteeCONFIDENTIAL/transport-guarantee
/user-data-constraint
/security-constraint
It is necessary for every user to have a member role assigned in order to
reach the members' section (that is one role per web app to allow access in
the first place) but, having been permitted to access the members' pages,
you can further control access to pages within that area by performing your
own role checks within each page.

get in would not be enough to make this a secure model.
Why? knowing my hotmail address doesn't make it possible for other than me
to login to my hotmail account.
If you store the
remote site information in the Session, this information is stored-server
side and a client never even gets the chance to have a go at circumventing
it.
The role model can be made to work. You have a list of clients, or sites,
and you assign them roles. You create a table of role-to-permissions or
simply declare the required roles in your JSP. Then in your pages make the
following access check:
// This gives MyApp/saveEditedPage.action in your original example; you
may also use
// getServletPath() to give you saveEditedPage.action
String requestURI = request.getRequestURI();
// Implement this method yourself
String[] permittedRoles = getPermittedRoles(requestURI);
boolean accessAllowed = false;
for (int i = 0; i permittedRoles.length; i++)
{
if (request.isUserInRole(permittedRoles[i]))
{
accessAllowed = true;
break;
}
}
This is simply an example, of course, and I don't know whether such a
scheme
would work for you.

RE: How much memory does Tomcat really use?
Howdy, You can run tomcat 4.x and 5.x with less than 8MB of RAM. It all depends on what webapps you have configured, connectors, min/maxProcessors, etc. The more general question of heap size vs. overall OS process size is far more difficult to answer. The answer is highly variable from one OS to another and from one OS version to another. Generally speaking, as the size of the heap is larger the ratio of the heap to the process size nears 1. In theory it can never reach 1, it's at best slightly less.

mod_webapp incorrectly determining SERVER_PORT
I am trying to make use of apache and tomcat behind a load-balancer which causes requests to hit the individual servers on a different port from the user-visible port. Unfortunately, whenever issuing a redirection, tomcat would include the 'behind the scenes' port, instead of the public one. Apache manages not to do this (due to correct configuration of Port). In jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.0.6-src/webapp/apache-1.3/mod_webapp.c in the routine wam_invoke() there is code to populate a request structure with client and server host data, and it includes the code req-serv-port=ntohs(con-local_addr.sin_port); I believe this is wrong; it should instead use the same information as Apache uses to populate SERVER_PORT for CGIs; this is what the Servlet spec says too. Therefore that code should be: req-serv-port=ap_get_server_port(r); Unfortunately, I'm currently having to use ancient versions of tomcat and the mod_webapp connector (yes I'm aware of the security issues), so apologies if this is no longer relevant or was fixed some time ago.

Re: HOW INCREASE URL length size ?
You can't. :-D That is a browser limitation. Most are in the range of 2000 chars, but at any rate that is out of your control. You will need to POST if you have a form sending more data than that. If you have urls that are longer than that, then you are in a bad place. ;-) Larry [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/26/03 6:43 AM Hi, Url limit size is to 451 characters.

Directory Listing
Hello, I am running Tomcat 4.0.6 on Win 2000, and I have three web apps running. I would like to turn off directory listing, but cannot figure out how. I have searched google, but have came up empty.

How do I specify a different workDir for each user accessing the same Tomcat 4.1.27 implementation
Hi, I am trying to manage a development team wherein each user uses the same instance of Tomcat for development. I do this by having a different server.xml file for each user and having the context docBase point to the build/webapps directory of each user, like shown below: Context path=/POS docBase=/u/biswasg/Proj/pos/bin/share/../../build/webapps debug=0 reloadable=true crossContext=false swallowOutput=true Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger directory=logs/biswasg prefix=pos_log. suffix=.txt timestamp=false/ /Context Now I want to specify a different workDir for each user also. How do I do that? I tried adding the following Loader element inside the Context but it doesn't work: Context path=/POS docBase=/u/biswasg/Proj/pos/bin/share/../../build/webapps debug=0 reloadable=true crossContext=false swallowOutput=true Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger directory=logs/biswasg prefix=pos_log. suffix=.txt timestamp=false/ Loader className=org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappLoader delegate=false reloadable=false workDir=work/biswasg/ /Context I want to do this as all JSP pages are now being compiled into the same work directory for every user. So if two or more users are concurrently working on the same JSP page they sometimes end up with a feature that they never added! (and which someone else working on the same JSP page might have added). So they ask me the question Hey, I didn't add this... How did that thing get in there?. And that triggered me into thinking that if I can specify a different workDir for each user the problem will be solved... Is this really do-able ?

RE: How do I specify a different workDir for each user accessing the same Tomcat 4.1.27 implementation
Howdy, If you want to use the same tomcat instance (bad idea IMHO), use a different CATALINA_HOME for each user with the same CATALINA_BASE. Take the rest of your configurations, especially the Loader, out of server.xml. A better alternative is to have a completely separate tomcat instance for each developer.

Mail Session oddity
Everyone, I encountered something odd when setting up a new Tomcat server. I have a mail session in the server.xml and when I run my app I get the following error: javax.servlet.ServletException: javax/mail/Session at org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:533) at org.apache.jsp.index_jsp._jspService(index_jsp.java:361) at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:137) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:204) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:295) at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:241) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) rest truncated for space The oddness comes into play in that it works just fine if I run tomcat through my IDE (CodeGuide). It has to be some sort of classpath problem but I can't for the life of me figure out what it could be. Has anyone seen anything like this or have any ideas? Thanks in advance, Cord Awtry
RE: How do I specify a different workDir for each user accessing the same Tomcat 4.1.27 implementation
Howdy, If I'm not too demanding :-) can you please explain why it is a bad idea to use the same Tomcat instance for more than one user. Is it performance related or is it something else ? Your users above are developers, not normal client users. It's legitimate for developers to experiment with the server configuration, properties, etc. Tomcat is free, you don't have to pay anything for extra installations. Forcing developers to share installations restricts their options during development (or at least slows down the process if they have to make sure their config change is OK with all other developers using the server). If one developer's mistake crashes the server, everyone suffers. If he has his own server, no one else is interrupted when it crashes. Finally, sharing the same tomcat instance doesn't gain you any significant advantage. Of course, there should be a shared/central integration testing server.

Re: Mail Session oddity
Jon, Actually, there isn't a mail.jar or activation.jar in common/lib or anywhere in the tomcat directory structure for that matter. But your comment got me thinking... I moved the mail.jar and activation.jar from the WEB-INF/lib directory of my application to the common/lib folder and lo and behold it all began to work. Curious... wonder why it wasn't there to begin with. Anyway, thanks to all for the responses... -C- - Original Message - From: Jon Wingfield [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tomcat Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 26, 2003 1:19 PM Subject: Re: Mail Session oddity But mail.jar and activation.jar are also in the common/lib directory.

Irregular error dumped to stderr without a stack trace.
Hi there, I have spent a bit of time trying to figure out why this problem is happening with no luck - so I decided to email the mailing list. The issue is this: We have a PDF reporting engine running from Tomcat 4.1.24 - in a Production environment. I have a particular report that is erroring out irregularly - sometimes it will run 3-4 times in a row and then it will bomb out (this is after re-starting the tomcat service), other times it will bomb out after restart immediately. The weird thing is is the error that is being dumped to the stderr log does NOT have a stack trace - it is dumping with: java.lang.NullPointerException on stderr. This reminds me of the OutOfMemoryError which dumps without a stack trace, but slightly less descriptive. Is there any way to get more description on this problem? I have tried to up the debug levels in the server.xml without any success. NOTE Other reports that are larger and more resource intensive are running consistently without a hitch. Thanks in advance, Steve

RE: Irregular error dumped to stderr without a stack trace.
Yoav, If that were the case the report should bomb out every time it was ran on the same set of data - which its not :( There is a catch in the base servlet that should throw a stack trace for ANY error. After some more debugging, the exception is being caught by this base Exception catch (identified by a System.out) - but like I said, the stacktrace is being truncated to the first line of it for some reason.

The above suggests a thread contention or race condition type issue.

So it does

Or something similar?

Session Affinity
Hi,
I am trying to load balance between 2 Tomcat servers. But I cannot get
session
affinity to work. The first time I get a page from the browser, I would
receive a
page from one server. Then when I refresh (reload from browser) the page, I
would
get a page from the other tomcat server. I have checked the session id's
from the
2 pages and they are different. If I understand correctly, with session
affinity, when
I reload a page shouldn't I get the page from the same server with the same
session?
My configuration is Solaris 2.9, Apache 2.0.47, Tomcat 4.1.27 and JK2 2.0.2.
For each tomcat instance, I have modified server.xml to have an unique
jvmRoute;
tn1 for one server and tn2 for the other. These match the tomcatId in
the

When does tomcat call the garbage collector?
Hello I am working on a crm web app in jsp. I am pre-compiling everything with ant and serving them as servlets though tomcat. I am curious when tomcat does garbage collection on the servlets. For instance, if a servlet opens stuff up I would imagen when that page has finished executing it would clean up anything not properly cleaned up. The real issue... I have a dbHandler class that takes care of sql statements and connection pooling. I am using IBM's AS400JDBCConnectionPool class to handle the pool. If it has say 100 connections open, and you shutdown tomcat. They stay open on the AS400. I would think that some process would go though and close everything that is open when tomcat shuts down. I am compiling with JDK1.4.2_09 and running Tomcat 4.1.27 which is using JRE1.4.2 to execute the servlets. Any ideas would be helpful, thanks.

Re: When does tomcat call the garbage collector?
it is your own responsibility to close connections from a pool. Tomcat doesn't do garbage collection, the Java VM does. Also, if you kill your VM and the connections are still open on the AS400 box, tough luck, (I would imagine they should timeout shortly) that is out of reach from the VM/Tomcat side, best thing you can do is to not keep a pool of open connections, because if the VM crashes or gets killed, there will be no one closing them from the client Filip - Original Message - From: Bruce W.

Pleas help (Custom Authenticator Reaml Problem)
Dear all, I wrote my own authenticator (extends FormAuthenticator) realm (extends JDBCRealm). What I need is to check one more field in the database besides password for authentication. Only minor modifications are made on the original codes so I think it should be fine. What I also did include changing the org/apache/catalina/startup/Authenticators.properties file to add the new authenticator; modifying the server.xml and web.xml accordingly. Furthermore, I added the entries for my authenticator and realm in the mbeans-descriptor.xml file. I expected everything to work perfectly but when I tried to access the secured area, I got the following error: HTTP Status 500 - Configuration error: Cannot perform access control without an authenticated principal - type Status report message Configuration error: Cannot perform access control without an authenticated principal description The server encountered an internal error (Configuration error: Cannot perform access control without an authenticated principal) that prevented it from fulfilling this request. This error was triggered instantly. I mean I even did not have a chance to see the login webpage. Now I have several questions: What is the flow of the authentication? Was my authenticator got executed at all? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. - Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Shopping - with improved product search

Still doesnt explain why there was no stacktrace attached with the

Subject: RE: Irregular error dumped to stderr without a stack trace.
Howdy,
If that were the case the report should bomb out every time it was ran
on
the same set of data - which its not :(
The above suggests a thread contention or race condition type issue.
There is a catch in the base servlet that should throw a stack trace
for
ANY
error.
So it does
try {
...
} catch (Throwable t) {
System.out.println(t);
t.printStackTrace();
}
Or something similar?
Yoav Shapira
After some more debugging, the exception is being caught by this base
Exception catch (identified by a System.out) - but like I said, the
stacktrace is being truncated to the first line of it for some reason.
Normally this would provide a full stack trace.

Howdy,
Do you use System.out/System.err to log in your app?
Could it simply be an uncaught null pointer exception in your report
generation code due to some bad data contents in the report?

Subject: Irregular error dumped to stderr without a stack trace.
Hi there,
I have spent a bit of time trying to figure out why this problem is
happening with no luck - so I decided to email the mailing list.
The issue is this:
We have a PDF reporting engine running from Tomcat 4.1.24 - in a
Production
environment.
I have a particular report that is erroring out irregularly -
sometimes
it
will run 3-4 times in a row and
then it will bomb out (this is after re-starting the tomcat service),
other
times it will bomb out after restart
immediately. The weird thing is is the error that is being dumped to
the
stderr log does NOT have a stack
trace - it is dumping with:
java.lang.NullPointerException
on stderr. This reminds me of the OutOfMemoryError which dumps
without
a
stack trace, but slightly
less descriptive. Is there any way to get more description on this
problem?
I have tried to up
the debug levels in the server.xml without any success.
NOTE Other reports that are larger and more resource intensive are
running
consistently without a hitch.
Thanks in advance,
Steve

RE: When does tomcat call the garbage collector?
For some reason I figured when tomcat shutdown, along with the JVM -- it would finalize any open classes. And with that action it would close the open connections. Yes the open connections will die after a set value, some x odd hours. It is rather easy to control the number of pooled connection and close them while tomcat is running. But it's the shutdown part I'm concerned about. But when 200 some odd users are using an app it's rather slow to run everyone off a single DB connection :). Is there some way to tell JVM to finalize all open classes at exit? Some command-line argument or com call, or something... -Original Message- From: Filip Hanik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 26, 2003 2:15 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: When does tomcat call the garbage collector? it is your own responsibility to close connections from a pool. Tomcat doesn't do garbage collection, the Java VM does. Also, if you kill your VM and the connections are still open on the AS400 box, tough luck, (I would imagine they should timeout shortly) that is out of reach from the VM/Tomcat side, best thing you can do is to not keep a pool of open connections, because if the VM crashes or gets killed, there will be no one closing them from the client Filip - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

new build of isapi_redirector2.dll
The current Jakarta release version is 2.0.2 which is from Fall 2002. If anyone is interested in trying something newer, I've posted a build on my web site: http://web.bvu.edu/staff/david/tcservcfg/isapi_redirector2.zip This based on the Tomcat 4.1.27 source code with the current Apache httpd PCRE and APR source. I have no environment in which to test this, so I make no guarantees about if it work, etc., but it did compile without any warnings.
addendum: new build of isapi_redirector2.dll
I have also gotten the latest cvs snapshot to build fine so long as I use the 1.52 version of jk_channel_socket.c. Both this and the 4.1.27-based isapi_redirector2.dll are available at the link below. If they work, this should give us access to most of the latest bug fixes until the next official release. http://web.bvu.edu/staff/david/tcservcfg/isapi.html

RE: Session Affinity
Yes I did. After your email I checked again.
But this time, I found the problem. The jvmRoute
was misspelled; it had jmvRoute. This is
misspelled in the original server.xml file.
I corrected the spelling and it works fine now.
Thanks for your help.

Subject: Session Affinity
Hi,
I am trying to load balance between 2 Tomcat servers. But I cannot get
session affinity to work. The first time I get a page from the browser, I
would receive a page from one server. Then when I refresh (reload from
browser) the page, I would get a page from the other tomcat server. I have
checked the session id's from the 2 pages and they are different. If I
understand correctly, with session affinity, when I reload a page shouldn't
I get the page from the same server with the same session?
My configuration is Solaris 2.9, Apache 2.0.47, Tomcat 4.1.27 and JK2 2.0.2.
For each tomcat instance, I have modified server.xml to have an unique
jvmRoute; tn1 for one server and tn2 for the other. These match the
tomcatId in the workers2.properties file.

Resource Questions
Hi. I have recently begun using Tomcat and I am trying to gain a better understanding of its configuration. Currently, I am most confused with the relationship between Resources, GlobalNamingResources, and resource-refs. I have configured a JDBC datasource Resource within a context in the server.xml and am able to retrieve and use the datasource without any problems. However, when I put the same Resource within the GlobalNamingResources section, I get the apparently common Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null'. Now, I understand that using a ResourceLink within the context solves this, but is this how it is supposed to work or is it merely a workaround (albeit a good one)? I just want to be clear because I found this trick in the list archive and not in the official Tomcat documentation (though I may have missed it). Finally, I have yet to see a case in which the resource-ref within the webapp.xml is necessary. Can anyone explain to me what this is supposed to do? I thought that initially, it was necessary only if you had put your Resource within the GlobalNamingResources but this does not appear to be true. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. -- Justin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I just upgraded my production server to tomcat 4.1.27 running on Solaris 7 with java 1.4.2_01. I am using Ajp13 connections to Apache 1.3.23 with mod_jk 1.2.0. I was running 4.0.4 on java 1.3.0 without incident. It ran fine for a day and a half, but then over a period of about 10 minutes I got a flood of log messages for Broken pipe, Starting background thread and finally when it exceeded my configured Ajp13Processor limit, No processor available, rejecting this connection. Also, tomcat pegged my CPU usage during this period. I bounced tomcat and now all is well with less than 10% cpu for tomcat. The httpd logs show no evidence of a DOS attack. Besides, the tomcat application requires form based login. My 4.0.4 setup never used more than 55 AJP processors. It was (as is 4.1.27) configured for a max of 75 which it never reached. I had the very same problem when I first deployed 4.0.3, but it got fixed in 4.0.4. Can anybody confirm this regression? Google hasn't been very helpful on this one. Should I just revert to 4.0.4 and wait for a fix? -- Jeff jlar310 at yahoo - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yea, I symbolically linked it there as well, but still nada. Will it not
follow symbolic links?

Data corruption with large messages
Vitals: Tomcat version: 4.1.27 Tomcat configuration: Out-of-the-box (except for my app's WEB-INF) OS: solaris 2.9 My servlet skill level: medium-low Problem: When receiving a HTTP 1.0 POST with a 10kbyte payload, my doPost() method writes the message body to a file. The file is the right size, but my data is nulled out after correctly receiving about 2kB. In frustration, I set the Connector bufferSize parameter to 100, to discover that I could now receive about 4kbytes of my 10kbyte message. I then proceeded to write my own Java server to receive the message and write it to a file, and it works just fine. I am at a loss - can anyone suggest what could be causing this problem?

Re: Pleas help (Custom Authenticator Reaml Problem)
To save you lots of headaches, can you just use a filter to perform authorization and let JDBCRealm do the authentication? (IIRC) The authenticators do authentication and authorization by delegating some of those tasks to the Realm. But all the bookkeeping needs to be done by the authenticator valve. A pretty icky topic. -Tim Lawence wrote: Dear all, I wrote my own authenticator (extends FormAuthenticator) realm (extends JDBCRealm). What I need is to check one more field in the database besides password for authentication. Only minor modifications are made on the original codes so I think it should be fine. What I also did include changing the org/apache/catalina/startup/Authenticators.properties file to add the new authenticator; modifying the server.xml and web.xml accordingly. Furthermore, I added the entries for my authenticator and realm in the mbeans-descriptor.xml file. I expected everything to work perfectly but when I tried to access the secured area, I got the following error: HTTP Status 500 - Configuration error: Cannot perform access control without an authenticated principal - type Status report message Configuration error: Cannot perform access control without an authenticated principal description The server encountered an internal error (Configuration error: Cannot perform access control without an authenticated principal) that prevented it from fulfilling this request. This error was triggered instantly. I mean I even did not have a chance to see the login webpage. Now I have several questions: What is the flow of the authentication? Was my authenticator got executed at all? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Regression? Tomcat 4.1.27 spiraling out of control!
IIRC when 4.1.28 comes out, (see the FAQ for a release date), I'm pretty sure it has some connector fixes which may help some people in your condition.
