RE: AW: Setting Context Path of Webapp as Root on Tomcat 5.5.3

2004-11-05 Thread Her, Andre
Here is what worked for me (Tomcat 3.3.2 )
   -->

 




in apps-198.xxx.xxx.xxx.xml in the conf directory.
I guess that it can be defferent for tomcat 5.5.3.

But we never know!

Here's my context.xml file:




Seems to be not working either. When I access the root context
(http://localhost), I still get the Tomcat default page and not my
webapp's index page. I'm deploying my webapp on a default Tomcat 5.5.3
setup. I will try this on 5.5.4.

Am I missing something here like some configurations on the server.xml
or web.xml under $CATALINA_HOME/conf/?

The simplest solution, as Nick suggested, is to rename my webapp WAR
file to ROOT.war. I'm looking at a solution similar on a typical EAR
file deployment on a J2EE app (i.e. Jboss) where I can specify my
webapp to use the root context path in the application.xml file.

problems with LD_LIBRARY_PATH --(SOLVED)-

2004-11-02 Thread Her, Andre
All,

The problem is solved.

rather than to call perl /usr/PP/perl/auth

I call a ksh script setting the environment and exec perl with the command
line.

It work now.

Many thanks to everybody, specially those who responded.

RE: problems with LD_LIBRARY_PATH !

2004-10-29 Thread Her, Andre
for the moment I am starting tomcat with $TOMCAT_HOME/bin/startup.

I have included

# Shell script to startup the server

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib/:/usr/local/perl5/lib:/usr/java/lib
" ;export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
TOMCAT_HOME="/usr/tomcat/tomcat"   ;export TOMCAT_HOME

BASEDIR=`dirname $0`

I have exported LD_LIBRARY_PATH already from my .bashrc

I have placed context_param in conf/apps-19x.xx.xx.xml and init-param in
WEB-INFO/web.xml

But so far, no results

Also, the perl script (with the $ENV{'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'} =.. ) is working
when I call it manually eg:
/usr/local/bin/perl user_auth
even if I first do a unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH

BTW: I am running tomact on a Solaris 9 server.

How do you start your Tomcat?! Trough a init.d script, or from bash, sh 
or another shell? If it is from a shell you have to be sure that your 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set _before_ you start Tomcat, ie try this:
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/perl/lib" 
/path/to/tomcat/bin/startup.sh

Perhaps this happens because you do not call 'export' when setting an 
env variable. You have to otherwise it will only exist in the moment you 
press enter...
