Service Runner question
I am running Tomcat 5.0.28 on my Windows XP machine. When I run a program called Security Task Manager, which is a more powerful version of the standard Windows Task Manager, it says that a Windows Process named 'Service Runner' is using 28.3 MB of my memory. The file name is e:\Tomcat-5.0.28\bin\tomcat5.exe. Can anyone tell me what the consequences are if I Quarantine it, i.e. if I stop it from launching itself automatically every time I boot up the computer? I'm trying to understand how it will impact my testing with Tomcat and my deployment of servlets to Tomcat from Eclipse 3.0.1 via Sysdeo. I'm guessing it will keep me from doing any of those things. If that is correct, what is the proper method to enable those things when I need to do them, short of making Service Runner a TSR again? The truth of the matter is that I can go weeks without running Tomcat so I really don't need it to be a TSR. However, I don't want to shoot myself in the foot and force myself to reboot every time I need Tomcat. Can anyone advise me on the best strategy for handling this?

Re: WAR files and Eclipse
It's actually very easy to do what you want to do. Assuming you have correctly installed and configured Sysdeo, you will need to tell Eclipse where the War file for your Tomcat project should be generated. This is done on a *project* basis, i.e. you have to repeat this step once for each Tomcat project you create but you will never have to do this again for a given project unless you change the location where you want the War file. 1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package Explorer perspective. 2. Right click for a context menu. Choose 'Properties'. 3. Within Properties, choose 'Tomcat' from the tree on the left. 4. Click on the 'Export to WAR settings' tab within the Tomcat properties. 5. Enter the path that tells Tomcat where to generate your War file. The path name should include the file name of the War file. I normally put my War files in a folder called 'war' directly beneath the project so my WAR file for export looks like this: D:\eclipse\workspace\MyProject\war\MyProject.war. Naturally, you are free to organize your files differently. 6. Click on OK to close the Properties dialog. Then, every time you want to regenerate your War file, all you need to do is this: 1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package Explorer perspective. 2. Right-click for a context menu. Choose 'Tomcat project'. 3. Choose 'Export to the war file sets in project properties'. 4. You should get a brief message that tells you the operation worked. Now, if you don't find Tomcat in the Properties tree or if you don't see the 'Tomcat project' option in the context menu, it means you probably didn't configure Sysdeo correctly. Don't worry, it's not that hard to fix. Just let us know and we'll try to help.

Howdy, When I am reading the servlet compiled from JSPs, I find that There are some variables and methods have leading _ while others not: _jspxFactory _jspx_out _jspx_includes Why these identities have the leading underline? Is there a naming rule? I have seen programs where programmers used an underscore as the first character of all class variables and used variable names that didn't start with underscores as local variables. This practice is actually *against* the principles that are stated in Code Conventions for the Java Programming Language at http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/index.html. If you look at Chapter 9, Naming Conventions, it has the following under Variables: Except for variables, all instance, class, and class constants are in mixed case with a lowercase first letter. Internal words start with capital letters. Variable names should NOT [emphasis added] start with underscore _ or dollar sign $ characters, even though both are allowed. Variable names should be short yet meaningful. The choice of a variable name should be mnemonic- that is, designed to indicate to the casual observer the intent of its use. One-character variable names should be avoided except for temporary throwaway variables. Common names for temporary variables are i, j, k, m, and n for integers; c, d, and e for characters. Of course these are only conventions, not rules, so people are free to ignore them unless their shop standards say otherwise.

This is on linux, but enabling sym links just seems to be an admin/backup complexity, and duplicating logos in every project also seems wrong. I see the shared directory looks ideal, but apparently this is only for classes or libraries. Perhaps a simple logo loader class in the shared folder would be most convenient, but I have to wonder if loading something as simple as a small logo should have to use the overhead of going through a class. You could place logos and such common stuff in a separate globa path, otside all webapps (like in the webserver ROOT). This is totally un-self-contained. I'd like to do this, but I was under the impression that a webapps/app/ was the context of one application and that file paths outside of this context would not be allowed (I'm thinking in terms of JSP's right now). A slight imprvement is to have a set of common classes that know what that global path is, could be configurable. That would make you semi-self-contained. This seems to be an easy alternative, but then it requires what is probably a lot of overhead relative to just loading a small logo type file directly. A completely self contained solution is hard to achieve, if not impossible. How can anything OUTSIDE your webapp be a part of self-contained module. I mean, it's outside... I was hoping that the global solution above would be possible with some sort of tomcat configuration. The existing shared/ subdirectory would be ideal, except that it only searches for classes there. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Tomcat 4 and Tomcat 5 on same machine?

How to set things up so that both instances run as services but are independent from one another, i.e. each can be started/stopped separately from the other and potentially use a different Java JDK. A pointer to any documentation on this subject or to something in the mailing list archive would be very useful if you could provide that. I was going to try to search for this in the archive but couldn't think of a common term that would appear in all such posts. We want the Tomcat 5 instance to be our test environment. We will put our Tomcat 4 servlets in Tomcat 5 and verify that they all still work; then we'll probably drop the Tomcat 4 instance, unless we can think of a good reason to keep it around.

Security of Servlets
We are giving some thought to putting a CGI-based Wiki, specifically OddMuse, on a website that runs on a Linux server. In 'Using Linux (Fourth Edition)', the authors warn that "The biggest cause for concern about protecting your site from external threats is CGI scripts." They go on to suggest various precautions that will reduce the risk. This has me wondering if servlets are equally insecure or have a much stronger security model. I also have Jason Hunter's 'Java Servlet Programming (Second Edition)' which has a 30 page chapter on Security that details how various forms of authentication take place in servlets. However, I can't find any categorical statement that says servlets are actually any more secure than CGI. I was wondering if someone with extensive experience with the security aspects of both servlets and CGI can give me any sense of which is more secure and why?I need this information so that we can choose the right approach for our wiki. Also, if servlets are more secure than CGI, is anyone aware of a wiki that runs as a servlet, preferably open source?

Re: [OT] The Way Java Handles Date
I agree. I found date manipulation a real pain when I first started using them. On the other hand, I know how to work with them now and I'm not prepared to write anything better than the existing Java date/calendar classes so I can live with it now. I think a short tutorial is probably the best answer for explaining this to people who are new to date manipulation in Java but I'm too busy with other things to write one myself, at least for the next few weeks. Maybe you could write a tutorial as you learn what you need to know?

Re: [OT] The Way Java Handles Date
I had a glance at the tutorials you mentioned; I had seen those topics before and used them. What I meant when I said that I hadn't seen tutorials on dates was that I hadn't seen any on the topics of *manipulating* dates, e.g. using Dates and Calendars to obtain or set specific dates. I found the coverage of that material a bit lacking at the time; it's probably better now though since the Tutorial has matured considerably since I first started messing with Java.

Automatic gzip of tomcat logs in Linux?
Does Tomcat automatically gzip its logs on Linux Mandrake? I noticed something odd in the Tomcat logs recently on our Linux server: apparently, every week (on Saturday), a process is coming along and gzipping all of the files in the logs directory of Tomcat. The system administrator says he didn't initiate this process and is unaware of anything in Mandrake that would do this automatically. That makes me wonder if Tomcat itself is doing this? We haven't seen any other logs (or files of any other typeon this server)getting automatically gzipped. We really don't want to do automatically zip everything in our Tomcat logs directory; I'd rather set up a cron job to archive or delete old logs at a schedule of my choosing. If Tomcat is gzipping the logs, I would like to turn it off: can anyone tell me how? It would surprise me if Tomcat is the culprit here since Tomcat 4.1.24 on my Windows XP doesn't zip its logs but I thought I'd ask anyway. If anyone else is using Tomcat 4.1.x on Mandrake, maybe you can suggest an alternate cause for this behaviour. I don't want to throw stones, I just want to stop this behaviour. We are running Mandrake 9.1and are using Tomcat 4.1.24. Rhino---rhino1 AT sympatico DOT ca"If you're getting something for nothing, you're not using your own credit card."
Re: Automatic gzip of tomcat logs in Linux?
Thanks! I think you may be on to something there. Yes, the system administrator installed Tomcat from one of the Mandrake RPMs. It may very well use logrotate for all I know; I didn't install Tomcat on Mandrake and don't know much about Mandrake yet. I'll run this by our system administrator; I expect to see a light bulb go on over his head when he hears your theory ;-) Thanks again!

Automatic backups of Tomcat logs in Mandrake??
Does Tomcat (4.1.24) take backups of logs in Mandrake? If yes, how do we stop it from doing so? Our production server, whichuses Linux Mandrake 9.1,is running Tomcat 4.1.24. I was in the logs directory today to look in one of the logs when I noticed that there were an awful lot of files in there - over 3200, in fact! Isaw the things I expected to see, catalina.out, various dated localhost_admin_logs, localhost_examples_logs, and localhost_logs and then a huge number of .gz files. It appears that something is taking a weekly backup of every file in the directory and has been doing so for at least 33 weeks, which roughly matches how long we've had Tomcat on that server. (We don't recall exactly when we installed Tomcat.) The system administrator who installed Tomcat doesn't recall clearly but thinks there might have been an install option that asked whether we'd like to do a weekly backup of the logs; if such an option did come up, he says he very likely would have said yes to it. He *is* sure that he didn't explicitly set up any scripts to backup all of these log files and we aren't aware of any other logs or directories of logs where this is happening. This makes us think it is more likely Tomcat that is doing these backups than Mandrake. Now that we've got a bit of experience with Tomcat, we realize we don't need weekly backups of the Tomcat logs and would like to turn this off. Can anyone tell us how this could be done? He and I are both pretty new to Linux in general and Mandrake in particular so we're just not sure how to stop these backups.

Problem installing 4.1.30
I tried to install Tomcat 4.1.30 for my friend this afternoon. He has a Win98SE machine. Icreate the environment variables JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME via msconfig as follows: set CATALINA_HOME=C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30 set JAVA_HOME=C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02 Then, I tried executing startup.bat but got "out of space" errors. I found those explained in the RUNNING document so I changed the initial space for both startup.bat and shutdown.bat to 4096 in their properties. Rather than helping, I actually got *more* errors, including: - JAVA_HOME not correctly specified - "out of environment space" [10-12 times] - a complaint about the D-JavaSpecificDirs [or something similar] - another error I can't recall now. For what it's worth, I also tried setting JAVA_HOME to c:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\bin but that didn't help. Can anyone help me figure out what is going wrong? I never had any problems installing Tomcat and making the startup.bat work, even the first time I installed it a couple of years ago and knew nothing about Tomcat The only guess I've got is thatmy friend'sPC is just too old and slow. It is a Pentium-100 with 64 MB of memory. I couldn't find any hardware requirements for running Tomcat though so I don't know if that is my problem.

Re: image not displayed
Peter,
When I display images in my servlets, I don't normally define where they are
in the web.xml file. I don't know Tomcat well enough to be sure if this
approach is possible but I suspect the most common way to do it is the way I
do it.
In my case, I simply include the HTML that displays the image in the doGet()
that displays the page. This excerpt illustrates this approach:
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println(html);
out.println(head);
out.println(titleMy Title/title);
out.println(LINK rel=\stylesheet\ TYPE=\text/css\
HREF=\event_form.css\);
out.println(/head);
out.println(body);
out.println(div align=\center\);
out.println(table class=\outer\ width=\620\ cellpadding=\8\);
/** THE FOLLOWING IS THE RELEVANT LINE **/
out.println(trtdimg src=\logo_small.gif\ alt=\logo\/td/tr);
out.println(trtdh2Event Input/h2/td/tr);
out.println(form action=EventHandler method=POST);
out.println(table class=\form\ width=\620\ cellspacing=0
cellpadding=0);
out.println(/table);
out.println(/div/body/html);
}
As long as the image is where Tomcat is looking for it, you should have no
problem. In my case, the image is sitting in the highest-level of the WAR
file.

Upgrading Tomcat from 4.1.x to 5.0.x
I've been using Tomcat 4.124 and now Tomcat 4.1.29 with good results but I'm thinking it might be time to upgrade to Tomcat 5.0.x. Are there any cautions/warnings/problems or just differences that I should expect between the two? For instance, will my servlets need to change in any way to run in 5.0.x? Will administration of the servlets change in any way? If there is anything I should do to prepare for the upgrade, particularly steps that minimize problems, I'd like to do so. Am I right in believing that I should normally not remove old versions beforeinstalling newer versions of Tomcat; that new versions simply go on "in parallel", i.e. they are put in different directories than the old versions? That's what I did when going from 4.1.24 to 4.1.29 in Windows XP. However, we also have Tomcat on our Linux Mandrake 9.1 server and the administrator wants to use urpm to simply overlay 4.1.24 on Linux with 5.0.x. Is that safe or should we do it some other way?

Re: How is catch{} code handled
I haven't got a clue what your problem is. Your explanation is entirely
verbal and would really benefit from code snippets to make it clearer. I
just can't get a clear mental picture of what you did with your code.
I can't presume to speak for anyone else but I wouldn't be surprised if
others felt the same way.

Subject: How is catch{} code handled
My sudden IllegalStateException problem turned out to be caused by my
error handling technique, but I'm not sure why.
When I started this project (as a way or learning JSP), I have
EVERYTHING in JSP pages, meaning that there was a lot of Java code in %
... % sections of the JSP page. I added an errorPage declaration to
each of my JSP pages to divert all errors to my standard error handling
page--and all was well.
Later, I decided to limit the JSP pages to HTML as much as possible and
move all of the Java program logic into servlets. I left the errorPage
declarations in the JSP pages, although there wasn't much left there to
throw an exception.
In the servlets, I used the standard try/catch constructs to intercept
exceptions. However, I decided I wanted the exceptions caught in
servlets to be handled by the same error page as the JSP pages used.
Rather than have EVERY catch{} clause do the redirect, I defined a
utility subroutine named errorPage() that collected various information
in the catch{} clause, then called sendRedirect() to the error page.
Separate from these catch{} clauses, whenever the processing in a
servlet was complete, it ended with a sendRedirect() to the next JSP
page followed immediately by a return. I had assumed that the
sendRedirect()s in the main servlet code were safe from the
sendRedirect() in the catch{} cause since--as I understood it--once the
exception was thrown and the catch{} entered, nothing else in the
servlet was processed.
However, my IllegalStateException experience suggests there is
something going on with catch{} that I don't understand. Or, as a
friend of mine used to say, I don't understand all I know about that.
:-)
To recap, I got an IllegalStateExceptioni pointing to a sendRedirect()
in a servlet until I effectively removed the sendRedirect() by returning
before the sendRedirect() could be reached. Only then did I see an
SQLException intercepted by a catch{} and redirected with
sendRedirect() to the error page.
Why did main servlet processing appear to continue (allowing the second
sendRedirect() to cause a problem) after the exception was triggered?

Re: How can I add a servlet to a server?
Hi! I'm not sure if this advice will work for you; it works for Tomcat 4.1.x but I don't know if Tomcat 5.0 works the same as 4.1.x. 1. Check your tomcat-users.xml file and make sure that at least one of the entries there has the authority to use the manager application. For example, this will configure the user id 'tomcat' with the password 'tomcat' to be able to use the Manager application: ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'? tomcat-users role rolename=tomcat/ role rolename=standard/ role rolename=manager/ user username=tomcat password=tomcat roles=tomcat,standard,manager/ /tomcat-users 2. Start Tomcat. If you're not sure how, use the startup.bat file in the \bin directory for Windows and startup.sh for Unix. If this works, you'll see the Tomcat welcome page. 3. Start the Manager application by clicking on the Tomcat Manager link on the Tomcat welcome page. If you set up the tomcat-users.xml file correctly, supply the userid and password of an ID that has manager authority. (In my example, the user is 'tomcat' and the password is 'tomcat'). 4. Go to the bottom of the Manager page, to the section marked: Upload a WAR file to install. Click the Browse button and navigate through your file system until you have selected the WAR file that you want to install. Press the Install button. After a few seconds, your servlet should have been added to the Applications table near the top of the page and you should get a message saying that the application was successfully installed at such-and-such a context. Assuming that there are no problems, Step 4 will copy your WAR file to the Webapps directory and unpack your WAR file into a subdirectory of Webapps with the same name as the servlet context. To execute your servlet, use your browser to start it. For example: http://localhost:8080/MyServlet/form where Tomcat is on your own computer (not a remote one), your context name is 'MyServlet' and 'form' is a specific url-pattern in the web.xml file that you put in the WAR file.

Re: CSS in War file
You haven't said much about your environment and you haven't included any
code so it's hard to be sure what the problem is. However, I have no
problems accessing a CSS in my War file in Tomcat.
Here is a fragment from my servlet, which runs fine in Tomcat 4.1.24 on a
Linux box:
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println(html);
out.println(head);
out.println(titleSDAC Event Input/title);
out.println(LINK rel=\stylesheet\ TYPE=\text/css\
HREF=\event_form.css\);
out.println(/head);
}
The CSS, event_form.css, is in my $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/SDACServlet
directory.

Re: question on manager application
I'm not sure I understand your question. I deploy WAR files regularly to a remote Tomcat4 and it's very easy: 1. Go to the Manager application in your remote Tomcat. 2. If there is already an old version of the servlet on your remote Tomcat, remove the old version of the servlet using the Remove command that is on the same line as the context name in the Applications table. 3. Use the Upload a WAR file to install section to install the new version of the WAR file. Use the Browse button to find the WAR file on *your* system, then click the Install button. It may take a few seconds for the Install to complete, depending on the size of the WAR file but when it is done, the Message area near the top of the Manager application will tell you that the installation was successful (unless your WAR file has problems in it; then you'll get an error message.) Tomcat takes care of all the expanding of the WAR file for you if you do it this way.

I am doing edits on each of the files which are to be uploaded, including a check to see if the file is larger than an individual size threshold I have set. (This is something I've created myself because I want an individual size limit, not the aggregate limit provided by the Commons FileUpload team.) When an individual file size is too large, I create a message and display it, then invite my user to press the back button on their browser to go back to the form to modify the form - either replace the name of the overly large file with a smaller one or blank it out altogether. Everything works fine except that when the user gets back to the form, all of the fields that are input type=file are blank. The input type=text fields retain their original values. I would like the input type=file controls to also contain their original value. What do I need to do to make that happen?

Weird Problems installing servlets in Tomcat
Tomcat has suddenly started behaving rather strangely on our Linux server. I was hoping someone here could give me some insight into the reasons and some suggestions for resolving the problem. We are running Tomcat 4.1.24 on a Linux Mandrake 9.1 box. I wrote a servlet on the weekend which worked on my Windows XP machine but misbehaved slightly on the Linux server when installed there. Yesterday, I figured out what the problem was and revised the servlet. The revised version worked in Windows so I tried to install it in Linux.

Move the JAR file to where it should be, like $CATALINA_HOME/lib or $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib as described in the ClassLoader HOWTO. I have had no luck getting Tomcat to load War files yet; I've been trying various things for hours but no joy yet First of all, I made a big mistake when I told you earlier that commons-fileupload-1.0.jar was in /var/tomcat4/server/lib, AKA $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib. I just plain looked at the wrong darned line of the screen. In fact, commons-fileupload-1.0.jar was in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib (and still is). I think that's where I want it, right? Tomcat uses FileUpload itself doesn't it? Otherwise I would put it in the /shared path, right? I've been reading the HOWTO that you cited and I'm getting a bit confused; it seems to contradict both itself and you! According to the Quick Start section, JAR files containing resource which are to be shared across all web applications are to be placed in $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib. Later, in the detailed description of the class loaders, it says that JAR resources which need to be shared across all web applications (except Tomcat itself) should be put in $CATALINA_HOME/lib, not shared/lib. I suspect that the Quick Start is wrong because it I don't even have a $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib on the server. That assumption would also agree with your remarks which say to use $CATALINA_HOME/lib. The only problem is that I don't have a $CATALINA_HOME/lib either! (We are using Tomcat 4.1.24 on Linux Mandrake 9.1 and running Tomcat as a service.) Anyway, this is probably all a bit off point anyway; I should have commons-fileupload-1.0.jar in /common/lib, right? There's one other thing that I didn't post earlier which I'm starting to suspect is fairly critical. When I first copied commons-fileupload-1.0.jar into the $CATALINA_HOME/commons/lib, I noticed that there was already a jar in that directory with the name commons-upload.jar. I assumed that was an old version of the jar and deleted it. The reason I think this might have been a major mistake was that nothing worked right from that point on. I have been unable to install a single WAR file, even one whose servlets did no FileUploads, since the point where I copied commons-fileupload-1.0 jar into /commons/lib and deleted the commons-fileupload.jar. Could that really be the cause of my problems? If yes, what do I do about it? Do I need to find a copy of commons-fileupload.jar and put it into /commons/lib? If yes, what do I do about commons-fileupload-1.0.jar? Should it be in /common/lib as well? But won't that cause conflicts?

Last night, when I was first trying to deploy the new version of my servlet, I used the Tomcat Project/Export to War file option in Eclipse to refresh my War file before attempting to install it on the Linux server. When things started misbehaving, I had a look at the War file and noticed that it was putting the beta 1.0 version of commons-fileupload in the jar. I thought that was messing me up so I searched both Eclipse and my hard drive and renamed or deleted every copy of the beta jar, every single one. When I renamed the jar, I added a .old to the end of the name, thus breaking the file association. I thought that would surely keep any program from mistaking it for a real jar file. Yet despite that, each time I did an export to my War file, I kept getting the beta version of the file upload in the War file despite the fact that no file named commons-fileupload-beta-1.0.jar was anywhere on my computer. I was baffled about how Sysdeo conjured up a file that didn't exist and put it in my War file. Does that many any sense to you? I just noticed that I still have one of the renamed files in my /server/lib directory on the Windows box; it is called commons-fileupload-1.0-beta1.jar.old: is it possible that Sysdeo was somehow grabbing that file and ignoring the .old suffix in order to put it in my War file? I wouldn't have thought that would be possible but I'm at a loss to think of any other explanation.

How do I tell Jakarta Tomcat 3.2.1 to bind to the localhost interface only?
Hello, I'm using Solaris 2.8, Apache 1.3.19, Jakarta Tomcat 3.2.1, and the mod_jk from the Jakarta distribution.
