out of ideas on an error

2001-05-28 Thread Kevin Fonner



I am attempting to set up a servlet which acts as 
and rmi client. I am getting an error which I don't understand. Are 
their additional securitys I have to set or something??

perplexing multiple servlet output question..

2001-05-15 Thread Kevin Fonner



I wanted a web page to display the results of 
mutiple servlets (maybe even as many as30 servlets) in rows on a web 
page. At first I was going to try to do it with frames where each frame 
would load a servlet. I then ran into a problem. I forgot that 
frames bind to a window and that you can't scroll through a single 
pagecontaining multiple frames (at least not that I know of). 
Anybodyhave any opinion on how they might try to do this?

Example of a single Web page...

++
+ servlet 1+
++
+ servlet 2+
++
+ servlet 3 +
++
+ 
ect...+
++

The user would then scroll through the page 
containing mutiple servlet output.

Thanks,
Kevin

Yep, I tried that to.  Frameset tags don't seem to have scrolling property.

 Why not try to use the include() directive?  And use table rows to
 display the results...;-)

resultset Question

2001-05-14 Thread Kevin Fonner



I want to grab just the first record in a Query of 
my database. I thought that this would be pretty simple???
Acording to my books they said that after 
executing...
resultSet = statement.executeQuery("SELECT * 
FROM userfolders WHERE username=\'" + userName + "\'");
That resultset would contain the first 
record. But I can't seem to grab the data. Below is a sample of my code 
that I think pertains to my problem. If anybody has any ideas I would 
appreciate them
resultSet = statement.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM 
userfolders WHERE username=\'" + userName + "\'");dFolder 
= resultSet.getString("folder");dModule = 
resultSet.getString("dmod");dModulePath = 
resultSet.getString("dmod_path");

  There are 2 problems with your message. First, 
  this question is extremely off topic for this mailing list. Second, you 
  do not say what kind of errors and/or results you get by executing your 
  current code. You simply say you "can't seem to grab the data". 
  Not very helpful.
  
  But 
  since I hate it when people just scream "off topic"... Take a look at the api 
  documentation for java.sql.ResultSet.next(). 
  The next() method needs to be called 
  before you start calling the get*() 
  methods.

Re: use index.class instead of index.html?

2001-05-09 Thread Kevin Fonner



Thanks, for you help but I couldn't seem to get 
that to work. In case anybody is wondering I managed to accomplish this my 
putting somthing in my web apps web.xml

servlet-mappingservlet-nameHelloWorld
/servlet-nameurl-pattern*.html/url-pattern/servlet-mapping

This intercepts the index.html file. I don't 
think I will need to have any static files in my app but if I did I could use 
.htm on them.

I'm just an amature at this so I probably shouldn't 
be giving out advice. If anyone knows a better way(or the "proper" way) 
please don't hesitate to let me know.

  I'm 
  a bit confused myself now, but I'll try to explain what I think the Tomcat's 
  logic is.
  
  In 
  Server.xml you must've defined your Home directory, and a number of 
  contexts.
  Tomcat processes all specified contexts and adds them to its 
  list.
  Tomcat looks under your home directory, and add all 
  subdirectories and all files to the "automatic context load" list. If you 
  start tomcat from the console window, you'll see it reports about it. First go 
  the contexts you've specified explicitely, and then "automatic" contexts - 
  whatever Tomcat found in your home folder.
  When 
  you type http://localhost:8080, Tomcat 
  searches all automatic(!) contexts. It looks for any of the files defined in 
  the welcome-file-list.
  Whichever the first, the file is returned to the 
  browser.
  
  Consequently, if you want to define your .class to be executed by 
  default, you must modify the welcome-file-list, and make sure that the 
  .class can be found in one of the "automatic" contexts.
  I 
  guess you need to make sure that yourWeb-infbecomes one of the 
  automatic contexts, by placing it under your home.
  
  Hope 
  it helps. Would like you to let me know if I was right in my 
  assumptions.

I've looked at the welcome file list element

thought servlets had to go in the /web-inf/classes directory? I tried 
it anyways and put the class file in root and made the adjustment in the 
/conf/web.xml it didn't seem to work.

Would it be possible for Servlet X to begin

 This answer is late, but I'm assuming better late than never ...

 If a user has been successfully authenticated, then you can access role
 information in one of two ways:

 * You can define a security constraint that requires a certain role
   before the request URI will be processed for this user.  If the user
   tries to access a prohibited page, they will receive a 501 error
   (forbidden).

 * You can programmatically ask if the currently authenticated user
   has a certain role by saying something like:

 if (request.isUserInRole(manager)) {
   ... this user is a manager ...
 }

 The JDBCRealm implementation takes care of reading the required
 information from the roles table in the database for you.  There is
 nothing your application needs to worry about for this.
