tomcat server question
Hey guys, I have the following question. I set up a tomcat server. I have an Apache server on a different machine. What should I put in the configuration of Apache and Tomcat so that when apache receive a request for a jsp file it will redirect the request to the Tomcat server? And Apache will serve only the HTML andimage files - but not the jsp files. Nick
Re: tomcat server question
The link that you sent is about Apache with mod_jserv - I'm using mod_jk. I saw mod_jk howto (in case you decide to send me that link too) but there is no information there how to redirect the jsp requests to a different machine Nick - Original Message - From: Filip Hanik To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2001 3:06 PM Subject: RE: tomcat server question http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-apache-howto.html ~Namaste - I bow to the divine in you~Filip HanikSoftware Architect[EMAIL PROTECTED]www.filip.net -Original Message-From: Nick Stoianov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2001 2:54 PMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: tomcat server question Hey guys, I have the following question.

an idea about a Tomcat book
Hey guys, It will be cool if there is a Tomcat book project (I know that there is one at sourceforge but it doesn't seem to have anything for download). It is a nice ideaif this project is somethinglike a posting list in the beginning where people will post problems(not questions)they have had with Tomcat together with the solutionsof these problems. It will be helpful especially if the problems are categorized in categories (tomcat 3.2 , 3.3 , 4.0 , mod_jk , etc.) Thanks, Nick
TOMCAT SUCKS
Hi guys, I really think that TOMCAT SUCKS so bad. I'm not against the open source community but this is why I think that TOMCAT sucks: 1. The documentation for Tomcat is so bad and it covers only the basic server installation. HELL - usually for production purposes people have load balancers, virtual hosts, etc. 2. Virtual hosting for Tomcat is almost impossible - especially if you have a load balancer in front of the web server. 3. The integration with apache (using mod_jk) sucks. It slows down the productivity of the web server with at least 1000% 4. And guess what is the hell you have to go through if your virtual hosts have different servlets mappings. You waste time and you know - time is money. 5. And what if you have a problem that is not in the documentation (99% of the problem with Tomcat are not even mentioned in the documentation)? I guess the only way is to post in the mailing list. And guess what happens if nobody has experienced this problem before? You have to start wasting your time again. I really think that TOMCAT is OK for testing purposes. Trust me - for complex configurations it sucks. If you want to use a good production application server - take a look at WebLogic, Resin, Allaire JRun, etc. Nick
Re: TOMCAT SUCKS
To all of you tomcat fans, Attacking me with these immature e-mails shows the following things: 1. not accepting other people's opinions and experiences 2. blindly repeating the same things over and over again. 1st of all - how many of you have installed Tomcat with about 30 virtual servers with integrated Apache behind a load balancer? When you make this work - then you can tell me how good Tomcat is. I tried it - it works - but it's not stable and mod_jk is slow when you have this multihost environment. 2nd of all - you are right, there is no sign Get your complete and comprehensive documentation here. But this doesn't solve the problem with the lack of documentation. Linux is open source too - look how many books are there on Linux. 3rd - it's not my job to hire somebody to write a book about Tomcat. I'm just stating that I will not use it until somebody writes something. Unfortunately I don't have the time to write a book about Tomcat. 4th - reading your solution about writing a shell or Perl script for the servlets mapping problem shows that you have no idea about SHELL scripting nor PERL programming (and I guess Tomcat either) 5th - I haven't met anybody in this mailing list who has a complex installation of Tomcat with a lot of virtual hosts , different ports and load balancers. So - who will help me in situation like this? No books , no support, no help from the mailing list. Thanks Nick On Wednesday 27 June 2001 04:01 pm, pete wrote: If there is a lack of documentation, that is par for the course with any project that doesn't have paid technical writers. I don't recall seeing a big sign on the front of jakarta.apache.org saying 'Get your complete and comprehensive documentation here'. If you wanted to, you could probably hire someone from this list to write up a good configuration guide for tomcat, for less than the price of a WebLogic license. Maybe you could think about that. You would then have both solved your problem, contributed in a meaningful way to the community and helped a fellow tomcat user financially, instead of finding, 6 months down the track, that tomcat outperforms, is more stable and a lot cheaper than WebLogic, yet still has no good docs. Your comment about mod_jk is just wrong. Exactly how does it slow down your web server by 1000%? I imagine if you are using servlets heavily, and this results in max CPU usage or something, then apache will struggle to serve requests, but this situation would be no different if you ran tomcat standalone, or if you switched to another servlet engine. If your virtual hosts have different servlet mappings? well, worst case scenario you could write a perl or shell script, or better still a GUI or servlet-based Java app that automated these configuration chores. You know what you could then do? You could contribute it back to the project so that other people can use it to save time. And if you have a problem no-one has experienced before, and posting to the mailing list doesn't elicit a reply? I suppose these commercial servlet engines are all 100% bugless, trouble free, and have perfect tchnical support. Of course nobody has problems with these servlet engines, which is why the Resin, JRun and WebLogic mailing lists are completely empty, and you can't find a single link on google when you type 'resin problem' or 'weblogic problem' into it. If Tomcat does not fit your needs, or you are unable to configure it correctly, by all means, ask for help. But don't claim it SUCKs just because you can't solve your own problems, or phrase your questions in such an obnoxious manner that help is unlikely to be willingly provided. -Pete Hi guys, I really think that TOMCAT SUCKS so bad.

If you've got your mind made up and won't listen to legitimate suggestions from others, what's the point of coming in here and posting like you did. You're acting out, something a three year old does. Now, this doesn't mean you don't have some legitimate gripes. It may very well be that for your situation, Tomcat isn't suitable. That doesn't mean it sucks, or that it's not suitable for others. Your situation just may be complex enough, or idiosyncratic enough, that it will be problematic for you to use Tomcat. And perhaps for a number of reasons, it's just not possible for you to spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to get Tomcat to do what you want, you want it to work the way you want out of the box, or have someone else figure it out for you. So a heavy duty commercial product with support may be a better choice for you. But it's going to cost you (whereas Tomcat is free). But that's a choice you're making as to how best to allocate your resources (and it may perfectly well be a legitimate choice). Again, it doesn't mean Tomcat sucks, it's just not what you need (and I've probably heard complaints about most of the other products out there, including commercial ones).

problem with mod_jk and Tomcat
Hi, I have the following problem. I was running Apache JServ and decided to upgrade to Tomcat with mod_jk and Apache. The installation went well. The sample servlets and JSPs work well. But now I'm having the following problems: 1. My old servlets that were working with Jserv don't work with Tomcat. I tried to find the reason and I found out that to invoke the servlets you have to go to http://localhost/servlet/the_name_of_the_servlet Okbut my servlets have redirections to http://localhost/servlets (not servlet) . I changed the JkMount in mod_jk.conf to mount /servlets for the servlet files. But it still doesn't work. My question is: how can I make tomcat to look for servlets in /servlets (not in /servlet)? 2. When I try to run the /admin JSP page I get ERROR 500: javax.servlet.ServletException: URL contains encoded special chars I will really appreciate if someone helps me with these problems.
