Re: jndi versus database connection pooling

[Mark Muffett]

There's a lot to configure to get it to work.

The coding side seems to be well documented, and there have been several
instances posted here, but (as far as I can see) we're all working in the
dark with server.xml.  I've spent a lot of time trying to get database
pooling to work with Postgresql, but I've failed and given up.  I'd be
interested to know what database/tomcat configurations anyone has got to
work - with some sample server.xml fragments if possible.

Re: Who uses connection pool?

Done that, but it still doesn't work (I'm also trying JNDI + postgresql).
Could you point us to a sample server.xml entry for postgres? (or anything
else needed)

Thanks

JNDI / DB Connection pooling

[Mark Muffett]

Has anyone successfully got JNDI Connection pooling to work with Tomcat

I think my server.xml must be wrong.  It's got:

org.apache.naming.factory.TyrexDataSourceFactory
 userlive
 passwordlive

databaseNamelive

driverClassNameorg.postgresql.Driver<

Tyrex / Tomcat

[Mark Muffett]

Does anyone on this list know who is maintaining Tyrex at the moment?

The official Tyrex website looks out of date, the list doesn't seem to work and there 
is a version 0.9.8 of the jar file around (later than the one used in Tomcat), but I 
can't find who has made it.  (The Tyrex site only has 0.9.7 - same as Tomcat).

Thanks for any help

Tyrex & Tomcat

[Mark Muffett]

I want to use the JNDI facilties for DataSources.  I have Tomcat 4.0.1 and
I'm using tyrex-0.9.7.jar (which comes with Tomcat).

I can't get it to work.  It compiles, but when I run the page and try to get
a database connection, it gives the error:

Have I made a stupid error? or should I use a different version of Tyrex, or
Tomcat, or should I try to find omg.jar (which I have searched for, but can
find only on the Orbix site).

Thanks for any help

Re: CVS

[Mark Muffett]

For a relatively simple project, where you just need source code control
(with branches,etc), how about RCS? - I've used it for the last 5 years,
even for code I've developed on my own  (I looked at CVS but, at the time,
anyway, RCS was a lot easier to use).

I believe CVS is just an interface on top of RCS which is meant to help when
you need to keep track of the binaries as well, but it takes longer to
learn...

Re: sql exception..

[Mark Muffett]

It could be that your servlets are not releasing connections, or just that
too many of them are trying to open them - are you using connection pooling?

Have a look at the number of connections (ps aux | grep postgres will work
on Unix / Linux, I don't know about Windows).

The default limit on connections to postgres is quite small and I have found
that I've had to increase it to run it sensibly with Tomcat.

JDBC Realms

[Mark Muffett]

In the standard server.xml for Tomcat 4, realms are defined at the 
level.

Is it possible to redefine at the  level - so as to provide a
different means of authentication for each of the virtual hosts?

Thanks for any help.

Good idea, or I suppose I could put something in web.xml and use an

I have to save some data in files from a servlet (can't get blobs to work

Tomcat 4.0 - Two bugs?

in server.xml.

http://sota works, http://sota.silly.domain.net goes to the default domain

JDBC Realms 3.3 or maybe 4.0

[Mark Muffett]

I have been using JDBC Realms (with v3.3) with success for some months.  I
have come to a point where I need to add some new features (expiry dates
mainly).  I expect I can hack the code to do it, but is there any
documentation on how best to proceed with this? (since I'd prefer my hack to
be portable from 3.3 to the next 3.x version).  I don't suppose it's of
sufficient interest to try to incorporate within Tomcat proper, but if
anyone else is working on similar extensions I'd be happy to share code.

Thanks, but I think the bug goes deeper than that, since I get the same
behaviour if I communicate directly with Tomcat (ie
sota.silly.domain.net:8080 maps to vp:8080).

Best regards

Tomcat v3.3b2 and mod_jk (multiple virtual hosts)

[Mark Muffett]

Larry

I'm trying something a little more complicated now - I have two different
sites: sota and vp.  I have apps-sota.xml like:


 
   
   
 


and apps-vp.xml like:


 
   
   
 


This gives an auto-generated mod_jk.conf like:

## Auto generated on Fri Sep 07 18:09:24 BST 2001##


  LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_jk.so


JkWorkersFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/conf/jk/workers.properties"
JkLogFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/logs/mod_jk.log"

JkLogLevel emerg



JkMount /examples ajp13
JkMount /examples/* ajp13

JkMount /admin ajp13
JkMount /admin/* ajp13

JkMount /Sota ajp13
JkMount /Sota/* ajp13

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
# To avoid Apache serving root welcome files from htdocs, update
DocumentRoot
# to point to: "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/ROOT"

JkMount /Vp ajp13
JkMount /Vp/* ajp13

JkMount /100ways ajp13
JkMount /100ways/* ajp13

NameVirtualHost *

ServerName vp
ServerAlias sota.silly.domain.net vp.silly.domain.net

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
DocumentRoot "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/Vp"



ServerName sota
ServerAlias sota.silly.domain.net

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
DocumentRoot "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/Sota"


(The aliases for vp surprise me)

Now sota & vp & vp.silly.domain.net work fine, but sota.silly.domain.net
(and sota.silly.domain.net:8080) return like vp.

Have I done something wrong, or is this a bug?

Many thanks

Mark

Re: Tomcat v3.3b2 and mod_jk (again)

[Mark Muffett]

Larry

It works fine!!!

One more question (to which I should know the answer): I need the classes in
postgresql.jar for my JDBC Realms login - is there a directory under
TOMCAT_HOME where I should put the file, or is it best just to leave it in
my CLASSPATH?

Many thanks for your help.

Tomcat v3.3b2 and mod_jk (again)

[Mark Muffett]

Larry

Having got yesterday's setup to work, I thought I'd try to go one step
further (having browsed some of the previous correspondence about mod_jk).

Since sota and sota.silly.domain.net are the same site, I tried making
apps-sota.xml as follows:


 
   
   
 


This gave me an auto-generated mod_jk.conf as follows:

## Auto generated on Fri Sep 07 12:28:23 BST 2001##


  LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_jk.so


JkWorkersFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/conf/jk/workers.properties"
JkLogFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/logs/mod_jk.log"

JkLogLevel emerg



JkMount /examples ajp13
JkMount /examples/* ajp13

JkMount /admin ajp13
JkMount /admin/* ajp13

JkMount /Sota ajp13
JkMount /Sota/* ajp13

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
# To avoid Apache serving root welcome files from htdocs, update
DocumentRoot
# to point to: "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/ROOT"

NameVirtualHost *

ServerName sota

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
DocumentRoot "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/Sota"



(no mention of sota.silly.domain.net)

Now sota works, but sota.silly.domain.net doesn't (and
sota.silly.domain.net:8080 just gives the default tomcat page).

Any thoughts (or should I just go back to what I had before...

Many thanks

Mark

Re: Tomcat 3.3b2 and mod_jk

[Mark Muffett]

Larry

It worked perfectly!!!

I made the changes as suggested - ie apps-sota.xml changed to:


 
   
 
 
   
 


and changed

noRoot="false"

in server.xml.


This gave a mod_jk.conf like:

## Auto generated on Fri Sep 07 08:37:28 BST 2001##


  LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_jk.so


JkWorkersFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/conf/jk/workers.properties"
JkLogFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/logs/mod_jk.log"

JkLogLevel emerg

JkMount /admin ajp13
JkMount /admin/* ajp13

JkMount /Sota ajp13
JkMount /Sota/* ajp13

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
# To avoid Apache serving root welcome files from htdocs, update
DocumentRoot
# to point to: "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/ROOT"

NameVirtualHost *

ServerName sota

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
DocumentRoot "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/Sota"



ServerName sota.silly.domain.net

JkMount / ajp13
JkMount /* ajp13
DocumentRoot "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/webapps/Sota"


(which was much more like what I expected) and it worked completely with no
further changes.

Many thanks

Mark Muffett

PS One bug I have found: running startup.sh jkconf while tomcat is running
removes the ajp12.id file from the conf directory, so shutdown.sh doesn't
work.

Re: Tomcat 3.3b2 and mod_jk

[Mark Muffett]

Larry

Thanks your your comments, but it gets worse and worse...

I've tried to leave everything as auto-generated as possible.  With an
apps-sota.xml file like:


 
   
 
 
   
 


I can access http://sota.silly.domain.net:8080/index0.jsp but not
http://sota:8080/index0.jsp (I don't understand why).


If I run startup with the jkconf option I get mod_jk.conf as follows:

## Auto generated on Thu Sep 06 16:52:13 BST 2001##


  LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_jk.so


JkWorkersFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/conf/jk/workers.properties"
JkLogFile "/opt/jakarta-tomcat-3.3-b2/logs/mod_jk.log"

JkLogLevel emerg



JkMount /examples ajp13
JkMount /examples/* ajp13

JkMount /admin ajp13
JkMount /admin/* ajp13

JkMount /Sota ajp13
JkMount /Sota/* ajp13

NameVirtualHost *

ServerName sota

JkMount /Sota ajp13
JkMount /Sota/* ajp13



ServerName sota.silly.domain.net



Now I can't get either http://sota/index0.jsp or
http://sota.silly.domain.net/index0.jsp

I know the auto-generated mod_jk.conf was a lot bigger with Tomcat 3.3m4
(which I managed to get to work).  (And I've tried copying that across, but
it doesn't work either).  Is there a bug here, or am I missing something?


Thanks in advance for any help.

I've tried to leave everything as auto-generated as possible.  With an

I can access http://sota.silly.domain.net:8080/index0.jsp but not

If I run startup with the jkconf option I get mod_jk.conf as follows:

## Auto generated on Thu Sep 06 16:52:13 BST 2001##

I know the auto-generated mod_jk.conf was a lot bigger with Tomcat 3.3m4
(which I managed to get to work).  (And I've tried copying that across, but
it doesn't work either).  Is there a bug here, or am I missing something?

Concurrent running different Tomcat versions

[Mark Muffett]

Can I run Tomcat v3.3 & v4.0 concurrently on the same box? (Linux OS)?  It
would be useful for testing, but I'd like to know if there's something
obvious that will make it go wrong before I start.

If so, could I use them both in conjunction with Apache (with mod-webapp for
v4.)?

Thanks for any help.

Mark

Tomcat v4.0 and virtual hosts

[Mark Muffett]

Has anyone succesfully got 4.0 running with virtual hosts? and would they be
prepared to show us a sample working server.xml file (and anything else
that's needed, if anything).

Many thanks

Mark

JDBC Realms

[Mark Muffett]

I wonder if anyone else has come across this.

I'm happily using JDBC Realms with Tomcat v3.3.

I would like to let my users change their passwords - of course I can put up
a screen that lets them alter the value of their password on the database,
but then they have to log in again with the new password.  Is there any way
round this? - ie to let Tomcat know that they've entered a new password?

Many thanks for any help.

Mark

Apache / Tomcat v3.3b1

[Mark Muffett]

I've just moved from Tomcat v3.3m4 to v3.3b1.  It's clear that there are some (a lot) 
changes in the auto-generated mod-jk.conf.

The setup before worked fine, but I can't get Apache to redirect to Tomcat for the new 
release, regardless of whether I use the old or new autogenerated files.

Any one had any similar problems?

Many thanks

Mark

Re: .htm problem

[Mark Muffett]

Tried it (in fact that's what I'm doing pro temp, but it doesn't function as
I would like).

I have index.htm as a link to index.jsp.

If I directly select index.jsp it works as expected, of course.  If I select
index.htm, the jsp code is not processed (you can see it if you try to view
the source in the browser).

Any ideas?

Mark

No good - the links are from the outside world and I have no control over

Re: .htm problem

Thanks, but I don't think it will work for my purposes - I want to log the
refering site and I think I'll lose the info if I do that.

.htm problem

[Mark Muffett]

I have a web site to which a lot of cross-links 
have been built up over time.  Inevitably the links are to pages with names 
like index.htm.  I would like to change these to jsp pages, but of course I 
can't change the name without breaking the link (and losing traffic).  

 
Any ideas how I can put jsp functionality on a jsp 
page (I already have Tomcat serving out the .htm pages and I have tried simply 
using an htm page like a jsp page, but it doesn't work)?
 
Many thanks for any help.

Weird startup problem - V3.3m4

[Mark Muffett]

I don't know for sure if this is a bug or my fault 
with config.
 
I've been using Tomcat 3.3m3 with Apache for a 
month or so with success.  I changed to 3.3m4 last week, apparently also 
successfully.  I rebooted the computer (Linux, 2.2 kernel) and it went 
wrong! - Tomcat would work on its own (port 8080) but not with Apache.  
(Apache worked fine on its own, but didn't seem to know about 
Tomcat).
 
I have a weird fix to the problem.  I stop 
3.3m4, start 3.3m3, restart Apache, stop 3.3m3 and start 3.3m4.  Then it 
works!
 
Can anyone think of a config file I forgot to 
change, or is it a bug
 
Many thanks

Re: Access protected

[Mark Muffett]

Many ways you can do it.  I use JDBC authentication and keep the
username/password in a database.  (I'm using 3.3 which might be a bit easier
than 3.2).

The documentation (on the jakarta site) is quite good.

Re: User login logging (JDBC authentication)

[Mark Muffett]

Raj and all

I've managed to make the changes (very easy), but of course it doesn't work
exactly as I wanted it (isn't life always like that...)

I've got a database which is filling up fast since a new log gets written to
it every time a user accesses a new page (probably about 100 times each
session).

Tomcat clearly knows what a session is (since it doesn't ask the user to log
in again for each page) - any idea where it does this?

Thanks for any help.

Many thanks for the suggestion, but where can I find this - I've looked
through the jar files in the common and container directories of
$TOMCAT_HOME/lib, but nothing stands out.  Maybe I've missed it?

Any help appreciated.

Agreed this would work, but I have more than 1000

  If you store the

  does this check) and redirect them back to the login page if the check

Re: apache & tomcat as services under Linux

[Mark Muffett]

I've done something similar to get tomcat starting / stopping automatically
under SuSE Linux.

The basics work, but I think I have a CLASSPATH problem that stops me using
JDBC authentication if I start tomcat this way (stopping then re-starting
manually fixes it).  I haven't had time to look much at it yet - but has
anyone else seen anything like it?

Logging bits and pieces

[Mark Muffett]

I'm gradually getting my logging application to 
work - I can get referer, host etc from request, without any 
problems.
 
I'd like to log screen resolution, colour depth, 
etc as well, but I can't see any way of getting these except from client side 
javascript - and I can't think how to sensibly integrate this with 
JSP.
 
Any ideas???
 
Many thanks

Anyone know if it's possible to use JSP / Tomcat to

files come from (and what they do).  There seems to be a txt counterpart 
for each jsp file.  I'm sure I've just missed something very simple, but 
can someone enlighten me?
 
Thanks

Can I check what version of Tomcat you're using?  Mine still doesn't work.

Thanks

Thanks, but it makes no difference.  Is there 
any easy way to be sure that my mod_jk.conf is being used?

  Try action="/VP/j_security_check" while assuming 
  that the rest of the
  setup is correct.

I've read everything I can find on the list, and in 
the documentation and I still can't get "FORM" authentication to 
work.
 
I'm using tomcat 3.2.2.  I'm accessing Tomcat 
directly (via port 8080) - I've turned Apache off to make sure that 
it doesn't get in the way.
 
Tomcat correctly redirects to my login page, but then 
pressing submit gets the message "The page cannot be 
found" & it's looking for a page called j_security_check.  I 
have:
 
form method="POST" action="j_security_check" 
>
 Username: 
Password: etc
 
in my login.jsp.
 
I've put 
JkMount  /VP/j_security_check * ajp13
in my mod_jk.conf (in $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/ - but I don't know whether 
Tomcat is reading it).
 
Any ideas?
 
Many thanks
