RE: Tomcat Question - HELP
I think a UNIX admin should know how hard it is to debug a problem when it is not accompanied by any other information. A UNIX admin should also know that novice users normally don't see anything abnormal in the logs. They have to list the output of a program for you to notice something. Ninety percent of the time the assertion 'the log says nothing' is false. UNIX admins know that. Please post the log and any information that may give us more context.

RE: Multiple arguments in a GET URL
The problem is I don't know that there are any parenthesis in URLs, to
group things like
http://your.server.com/index.jsp?mainFrame={blahblah.jsp?arg1=val1arg2=val2}
which is what I understand you want. Were I in your place, I would use the
URL
http://your.server.com/index.jsp?mainFrame=blahblah.jsparg1=val1arg2=val2
Then, your index.jsp (or mine) would getParameter() *all three* arguments,
knowing that the first is the page and then call for the center frame the
page with its arguments resent.
blahblah.jsp?arg1=val2arg2=val2
It seems the only logical solution to me, since HTTP is a stateless
protocol. It's this or use HTTPSessions, but the first step would be the
same anyway.

Yoav-
I understand that an ? indicates the beginning of a query string but with my
scenario it is exactly how I want it.
For example, my index.jsp is the frameset that takes an argument mainFrame
specifying the JSP/HTML to use as the center frame of the frameset.
So for example I would have
http://ndsc.eng.vzwcorp.com/index.jsp?mainFrame=blahblah.jsp
So now, assuming that the mainFrame is set to blahblah.jsp, I need to pass
additional arguments to blahblah.jsp leading to the second ? in the URL.
http://ndsc.eng.vzwcorp.com/index.jsp?mainFrame=blahblah.jsp?arg1=helloarg2
=helloagain
In this scenario, I am able to perform a request.getParameter on arg1 in
blahblah.jsp but when I try to do it on arg2, I receive a null pointer
exception.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Be careful with your syntax, use ?param1=param1param2=param2, not
?param1=param1?param2=param2. The ? indicates the beginning of the
query string and is expected once per URL, is a parameter separator in
the query string is can be there zero or more times.

Re: Question from a newbie! Please pardon me!
If other applications (using other packages) compile correctly, then your
classpath is correct and the problem then is that you don't have installed
the servlet jar, or it is in the wrong place, which is
$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/
The file I have is: servlet-2_3-fcs-classfiles.jar. I guess there could be
others, depending on your JDK version but the important thing is that this
jar is not bundled with the JDK.

Re: Strings in VARCHAR or BLOB
What most sites do is store in the DB a reference to the page (serial, ID, etc.) and the page itself in a file in a specific directory (a repository). This is one reason for URL's including many numbers and letters. This approach lends itself to storingn documents in a compressed format for instance. My feeling is that if you are storing raw documents sooner or later there will be one that is too large. Or there will be many of them if you choose to limit the size, so many infact, that it will be impractical to limit the size of all pages. I think you might as well kill the problem from the start than create a monster that will wake up one day and eat you and your clients. :-) Cheers, Gerardo PS - Am I wrong or this is slightly off-topic?

RE: Why is Tomcat/Connector Installation So Incredibly Painful??
You're right, if you don't have the time to contribute patches or enhancements, you cannot expect anyone to care, since you are not paying for the job. A complaint does, however, point to areas of potential improvement, and wise developers will eventually listen to them, giving each the priority they desire. It's called feedback... ;-) Snapping kills feedback, and without feedback you're pretty much in the dark.

On 03 September 2004, Peter Alvin said: But why is it so incredibly painful to install Apache/Tomcat/Connector? It always takes me about two days. I look forward to it as much as doing my federal tax returns. I'm in complete agreement with you. Even finding the right files to download is a bit of a chore. (OK, so everyone says I need mod_jk. Therefore I'm looking for a file called... jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk-1.2.6-src.tar.gz. Rght. Well, at least they have two letters in common.) Here's an interesting experiment: google'ing for mod_jk finds this page: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi as the second hit. But the string mod_jk occurs nowhere in that page; you have to hunt around until you realize that what you're really looking for is Tomcat Web Server Connectors. And then you only get to the binary releases page, which is useless -- I need the source, dammit! Oh, the *first* Google hit for mod_jk is http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/mod_jk-howto.html which I think most people who are working with Tomcat 4.1.x or 5.0.x would probably ignore based on the URL. Anyways, once you've downloaded the source (which I've already forgotten how to do -- luckily I kept a local copy), you then have to figure out *what* to build in that tree and where to find it. Not obvious. And it's different from mod_jk to mod_jk2. And then getting things to build is even less obvious. Alas, I don't have time to do anything more than bitch and gripe. Whoever is actually maintaining mod_jk, mod_jk2, and associated web pages, please hear our cries!

Re: Bind errors in 5.0.19
It could appear as 'webcache' instead of '8080'... Some Linux distributions have a Tomcat server that may be active. You download and install a new version and end up having two servers: the one you wish to use and the one the distribution has but is not obvious it's there. Have you checked the services that are up and running? Gerardo Juarez On Tue, 7 Sep 2004, Sunitha Kumar wrote: Hey folks: On reboot, tomcat complains that it is not able to Bind to port 8080.
