Re: Confusing - Compression 5.0.16 - Filter or connector???

2003-12-09 Thread Aymeric Alibert
Also, be aware of some bugs in IE with some formats:
PDF - http://www.15seconds.com/issue/020314.htm
I read somewhere that css and javascript files have issues too.
 
In this case, the filter option is better since you can specify which
extension to compress.

You will be compressing images?! :(

Remember that most image formats - gif, jpeg, png, etc, are already 
compressed. In most cases compressing them again will only gain you
2-3% 
improvement if anything at all. So you will be spending time
compressing 
for nothing.

Notice that the compressableMimeType attribute that you copied below

does not include image/jpeg. That is because whoever configured this

example file rightly excluded compression of objects that would not 
benefit at all.

If you are expecting compression to make up for a web site that is 
graphic heavy, you will be sorely disappointed. If, however, you have a

website with significant amounts of text (i.e., large database result 
sets) then you will probably benefit.

Yup, it would be attempted twice (if the request matches both the
filter
and the connector, which is the default setup). Personally I prefer
the
filter, as it's more portable and not tomcat-specific.



I prefer the connector, since it's faster and more powerful (you get
the 
regexp based exception list Henri added, etc) :)
If we (ever) get a gz impl that isn't an output stream and could work
on 
straight byte arrays, we'd also be able to do the compression
without 
facade objects at all, which would have the best performance.

RE: Best JVM for Tomcat

2003-12-03 Thread Aymeric Alibert
We are running Tomcat under Solaris 8 and tried to use the '-server'

load testing showed that the JVM would crash systematically under heavy
load. No problem running with the '-client' option.

Re: Regarding Tomcat Start

2003-09-27 Thread Aymeric Alibert
Your server failed to start.
You can see errors by opening a DOS prompt and run 'catalina.bat run'
from the
tomcat bin directory. This should start the server in the same window
instead of 
opening a new window that will closed itself if startup fails.
 
Aymeric.

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/27/03 11:53AM 
I have installed jakarta-tomcat-5.0.12. I set jdk and catalina path. I
open a 
command prompt, move to the bin directory of tomcat. I run startup.bat.
It 
opens another prompt that vanishes in seconds. I dont see anything
wrong 
(warning or error message) at original command prompt.
I move to localhost in browser. Nothing loads up on browser !
How do i know whether tomcat has really started or not ? (I tried to
look at 
services running, it does not show up there)
I tried to see log floder, but it is just empty. I tried to run
shutdown bat 
file. It says, connection not found ! Does it help in answering my
question?

Sharing session between webapps

2003-08-14 Thread Aymeric Alibert
Hi,
 
I have two web applications running on the same Tomcat server. One is used for 
administration (webapp1) of the other one (webapp2). I would like my administration 
application to be able to set some session values in 'webapp2' and then redirect to 
'webapp2'. The goal is to bypass the login page by directly setting-up the userid.
Is there any way to share sessions information between app?
Any other suggestion?
 
Thanks,
 
Aymeric.



Re: invalid reference to form login page error

2003-06-23 Thread Aymeric Alibert
You cannot access you logon page directly, try to access a page
protected by you security constraints instead.
 
This is an issue with the servlet 2.3 specs. Let's say you secured the
domain /mysecuresite in your web.xml and
you created a logon.jsp page for Tomcat form-based authentication.
If you access /mysecuresite/mysecurepage.jsp, tomcat will redirect you
to logon.jsp. If logon is successful, you get redirected back to the
mysecurepage.jsp page.
If you access logon.jsp directly, tomcat doesn't know where to send you
on successful logon.
Unfortunately, there is no notion of default page in the specs.
 
Aymeric.

RE: 4.1.17 Problems - Possibly Coyote Connector?

2002-12-18 Thread Aymeric Alibert
I had that problem with 4.1.16 and I opened a bug in bugzilla. But I couldn't
come up with a test case and the bug got closed.
Maybe you can add your experience to the bug report and reopen it:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/18/02 02:14PM 

  The actual web application did not seem to have a problem on 
  the front side. Everything went on as normal on 4.1.12
  Pages failed to be served correctly on 4.1.17 ( they are 
  blank ) though logging on with a new session will serve the 
  first couple pages then start blanking.
 
 This looks like exactly what is happening to me. 4.1.12 
 works, 4.1.17 gives
 me the problem. One thing to note is that my application does 
 not use JSP so
 must be a catalina or coyote issue. Are you using the stock 
 Coyote/HTTP 1.1
 connector or are you using one of the JK connectors?
 

I am using whatever 4.1.x is set to use by default. Which I am pretty sure is the 
Coyote/HTTP 1.1 connectors.
The problem is still there for both 4.1.12 and 4.1.17, it's just not very visible up 
front on x.12
And monitoring the logs for that context tells me my pages start returning blank at 
the exact same time that exception happens.

 I have not seen any sort of socket exception, but possibly my 
 logging is not
 configured to see that.

Perhaps try to add a log file dump for that specific context as I did in my little 
context blurb. Then check that file out after your pages start returning blank pages. 
Then perhaps it will be a little more filtered from the rest of the context serving...

RE: TC 4.1 and VM crash: how to report issue?

Actually, I thought I had LWP set for this run. 
But I can't see any reference to /usr/lib/lwp  in the VM crash report , so I might 
have goofed my Tomcat set-up. I will try again.

Thanks.

Hi,
Hmm.  I've seen more VM crash logs than I care to count, but I've never seen one where 
it didn't have the internal function name.  Interesting.  That in itself may give Sun 
some information.

Have you tried the same tests with the alternate thread library (LWP) if it's 
available for your version of Solaris??

Howdy,
If your OS requires patches in order to run the JDK (whatever version

this exact issue happen on Solaris, and installing the proper Solaris
patches made it go away.

You say The same behavior can be reproduced with both JDK1.4.0 and

Which one is it?  ;)  If you can reproduce it, the full details of how
to reproduce it can be posted to Sun's bug parade, and they'll track
down whatever tools they need in order to mimic your environment.  If
you can't reproduce it, there's no bug as far as they're concerned.

Finally, I'm not sure I understand this bullet:

- I works fine with TC4.1

So your app works fine on TC 4.1?  I thought that was the whole problem?
Or did you mean it works fine with TC 4.0 and not 4.1?  If it's the
latter, as I suspect, perhaps you could start by deploying a very small
subset of your app and repeating the test.  Then increase the deployed
subset and retest.  The idea is that a certain feature of tomcat as used
by your app is crashing the VM, and to find out which section of your
app is causing this.  The more you can narrow it down, the better.

Have you try running your test and verbosing as much as possible 
information inside the log file (increase the debug level in

trace the problem. Post your result (ot the last couple of lines). Maybe 
it will help.

TC 4.1 and VM crash: how to report issue?

2002-12-10 Thread Aymeric Alibert
We are running a Tomcat 4.0 server in our production environment and
I am trying to upgrade to Tomcat 4.1.

I ran some load test recently and was horrified to see the server crashing even
under moderate load. After more testing, I found that starting the VM with the
-server option systematically crash the VM after few minutes of load test.
The server works fine even under heavy load with the -client option.
The same behavior can be reproduced with both JDK1.4.0 and JDK1.4.1.

My TC4.0 server runs fine with the -server option.

Now, this is obviously a JVM problem but probably won't have any help from 
SUN since:
- I cannot create a test case to reproduce my problem.
- I works fine with TC4.1

Can someone help me with this issue or at least guide me to the right contact?
I found several tickets opened on the SUN bug database with similar issues but
none of them had a resolution or people assigned to work on them.

Thanks!

Aymeric
