RE: Asking Again: 5.5.12 Broke my 5.5.9 Config
Hi I'm also running TC 5.5.9 and planning on installing 5.5.12. Twice I have read through the complete Changelog, from 5.5.10 to 5.5.12. I find nothing saying this attribute is now ignored.

I've just tried to upgrade from TC v5.5.9 to v5.5.12 and it seems my (very simple) configuration is now broken. The following configuration works beautifully under 5.5.9 -- no exceptions, no warnings, just utter perfection. Here's a description of my configuration (BTW, CATALINA_HOME and JAvA_HOME are fine, I'm sure they're not causing the problem). I have CATALINA_BASE set like this: C:\Projects\Configs\ Within this Configs directory I have two sub-directories: conf and Engine_01 like this: C:\Projects\Configs\ | +-conf\ | | | +-server.xml | +-web.xml | +-Engine01\ | | | +-localhost\ | | | | | +-ROOT.xml Within the conf directory I have my server.xml and the default web.xml files.

I had a similar question while doing connection pooling with Oracle 8i of.

Oracle's connection pooling jar was smart enough to do it.

Custom tags and scope
Hi,
I do not have a lot of experience in programming custom tags.
Now, having programmed a couple of tags, I think it is kind of strage that I
cannot narrow the scope of variables defined in the taghandler down to the body
of the custom tag.
It would for me clearly gain the purpose of code usability if so was the case.
I hope I have missed something and that there may is a way to configure the tld
file so that the scope of variables is restricted to the body. Here is the code
to clarify what i mean:
TAGHANDLER (shortened for readability):
Public void doTag() extends JpsExtension{
PageContext pc = (PageContext)getJspContext();
JspFragment body = getJspBody();
pc.SetAttribute(testvar, myvalue);
body.invoke(null);
}
JSP (shortend for readability):
htmlheadtitletest/title/head
my:testtag${testvar}/my:testtag
!-- now, this should be out of the scope, but it isnt: --
${testvar}
/html
I do not want to specify or declare the variable first in the jsp.
I also think that using an attribute to hold the name of the variable used is a
bad idea.
I absolutely want to use EL.
Is there any hope, or do I have to live with it?
Would appreciate any tips and workarounds
Regards Trond

web.xml, url-pattern
Hi! I'm running Tomcat 5.5.9 and I'm struggeling getting the grip of how to work with the deployment descriptor. If I do the following (the web.xml below) I can access the TestServlet with: http://www.mymachine.no/foxer and I get the correct output. But, if I try using wildcards, eg. url-pattern/*foxer/url-pattern it doesent work anymore. In fact it seems like the astrisk is not interpreted as a wildcard but a normal character. I can accsses the servlet with http://www.mymachine.no/*foxser. If I try to map the servlet so that it seems like a jsp-page url-pattern/foxer.jsp/url-pattern, it doesn't work at all. In the Java Servlet JSP Cookbook by Bruce W. Perry from O`Reilly I have read what I know about web.xml, but maybe it has been som changes in how version 5.5.9 works. In the book I also read that I should be able to access the servlet even if it's not mapped up in web.xml. http://www.mymachine.no/servlet/foxer Ofcourse this does also not work.

RE: Context in separate file doesn't work
Hi George,
Thank you very much, you made my day!!
I thought I could name the .xml files whatever I like to, but that was a huge
mistake that costed me 2 days.
Naming the file ROOT.xml solved the problem. Can't remember having read that
anywhere in the doc's.
Don't know if it's just a bad style, but path= and path=/ seems both to
work well. But I'll listen to you and use an empty string.
Once again, thank you very much and have a nice weekend

HttpSession.class in servlet-api.jar is an interface as is implemented
in several places in the Tomcat source. To add new functionality I would
make changes to the following classes and recompile Tomcat:
-javax.servlet.http.HttpSession.java
add your new methods:
public void myHelperMethod();
-org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSession.java
implement your new method:
public void myHelperMethod()
{
//useful code
}
-org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade.java
add the lines:
public void myHelperMethod()
{
this.session.myHelperMethod();
}
-org.apache.catalina.cluster.session.DeltaSession.java
implement your new method:
public void myHelperMethod()
{
//useful code
}
-org.apache.catalina.cluster.session.DeltaSessionFacade.java
add the lines:
public void myHelperMethod()
{
this.session.myHelperMethod();
}
Hope this helps!

Oh, noSYNTAX ERROR..sorry WRONG: 0 1 * * * /path/to/script/rotate_log /path/to/script/rotate_log 21 I forgot to name the log file (otherwise you overwrite your rotate_log script, and it will only work once): RIGHT: 0 1 * * * /path/to/script/rotate_log /path/to/script/logfile 21 Anyway...a good example of how you not should name your files.. \trond Hi, maybe you would try the following: Create a bash-script (or on windows a .bat, with modifications) create a file called e.g. /path/to/script/rotate_log #!/bin/sh file_to_zip=`date +'%m%d' cp /your_path_to/catalina.out /your_rot_dir/$file_to_zip echo -n catalina.out cd /your_rot_dir gzip $file_to_zip cd /your_path_to $ crontab -e (as a user with reading permission for catalina.log and add the following line to rotate the log 1 am every day) 0 1 * * * /path/to/script/rotate_log /path/to/script/rotate_log 21 If you are very unlucky, you might loose log entrys between the cp statement and the echo statement. At least this doesn't change the i-node of the catalina.out file, hence the logging should continue. I have not tried this myself, and there is NO WARRENTY that it is working. I SUGGEST you await some comments from other users here before you trie it out. Be aware of possible misspellings of file names.

request process flow and user profiling
Hi,
I need to mainten a profile database with login, password, telephone numbers
and so on. I think I need to know how tomcat is handeling the request flow.
My goal is to achive the following (if there are better ways to it, please
let me know).
Profile profile = request.getSessio().getProfile();
if( ! profile.loggedIn){
the user is not logged in...
else
telephoneNumber=profile.getNumber();
}
I suppose there is a kind of pipeline of servlets that one after another is
processing the request object untill it finally is handeled by the end
servlet (e.g test.jsp)
If it doesn't allready exists, I would like to extend the session object
with to members:
short:
public class mySession extends Session{
Boolean loggedIn;
Profileprofile;
}
and put a class into the pipeline which, dependend on wether or not the user
is logged in, sets loggedIn=true and profile=som object containg profile
information;
Does this allready exist as a functionallity in tomcat? I know other
servlet-containers (Dynamo from ATG) has this kind of profile handeling.
Where can I find documentation on how tomcat is processing the request flow?
Thanks in advance

you have tons of options,
Servlet filters (standard servlet API) lets you process requests.
Using a MVC framework, such as struts, you can build your own controllers,
hence do a bunch of stuff there
Use Tomcat's pipeline by building valves

RE: Tomcat 5 Database Connections
Hi! I had the same problem. I was confused by all the different ways there are to configure tomcat. After five days I simply tried the simplest and most straight forward way. Forget GlobalNamingResources, web.xml, resource-ref, res-ref-name. Do it like this (based on the turorials MyFirst, and I know you know what to subsitute so it sutes your app: Put the following either inside your Host/Host in the server.xml or in the work-dir (in my case: tomcat_home/conf/Catalina/localhost/MyFirst.xml). It worked both ways. Try this first as is. Do not put anything database related into your WEB-INF/web.xml This is my test, so I don't mind exposing login and password. Maybe this isn't the correct way to do it, but it got me started and I can change it later as I get more experienced. Please give me comments if this would leed me into any kind of problems later.

I'm glad it's working, and as you noted in the same message it's rock solid. Second, I just did a clean tomcat install and followed the JDBC DataSource how-to *to the letter* to set up a connection pool for an existing Oracle database. I didn't run into any problems, including the cannot locate driver 'null' for url 'null' type of problem. It works exactly as expected. This is obviously not my first time doing this, but it's the first time I've done it manually from scratch in more than a year, and I'm pleased to discover the document is complete and accurate. Third, and this is a bit superfluous but I'll mention it anyway: you can't conclude that most users are finding it difficult from the archives of this list. The reason is that you don't hear from people who succeed, because they have nothing to brag about, they just followed the documentation. All you hear from are those who are having problems, which even if we heard about this once a day would still be a small minority of tomcat users judging from the tomcat download counts. Of course this is an analysis that's hard to do precisely because we don't know what percentage of downloaders use the connection pooling, but the bottom line is still that you only hear problems and not good experienced. Finally, as to your point that this should be simpler: most of these elements, specifically the Resource/ResourceParams declaration in a server configuration file and matching resource link in web.xml, as well as the JNDI environment namespace, are mandated by the J2EE Specification. It's not our choice to declare and configure things this way. The specific parameters, such as maxActive/maxIdle/maxWait/username are mandated by the connection pool implementation: even though we bundle DBCP and offer documentation for it, we by no means require the user to use it. It's trivial to swap another DataSource pool provider and use that with tomcat instead. So most of this is out of our hands, and if you have a good idea for a simpler mechanism the place to bring it up is the J2EE expert groups.

My application normally runs in production at my company on a Tomcat 4.0.4 server. The applications includes Cocoon and access to several databases (Sybase) via both Tomcat connections from servlets and from Cocoon XSP pages. I've been at this for awhile now and I'm a huge fan of Tomcat (and Cocoon). On a new test server I setup Tomcat 5.0.24 and installed my applications. For sometime I thought all was well because most of my stuff is Cocoon driven, and it's fine, including database connectivity.

MySQL-connection pool
Hi ! I have installed MySQL and is able to access it in a servlet like this: Class.forName(com.mysql.jdbc.Driver).newInstance(); Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbc:mysql://localhost/demo?user=tomcatpasswor d=.tomcat.); This creates a new connection to the DB every time, and I therefore want to use a connection pool. I tried to set up a connection pool in the tomcat-admin interface, but it seems like I can't get it right. I'm also not quit sure how to get a connection from the pool even if it is set up right. I assume something like this would be correct: Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(mysql), where mysql is the jndi name of my pool. The Tomcat documentation referrs to a non existing link ( http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dbcp/api/index.html http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dbcp/api/index.html ). Do I have to install any extra classes to make the connection pool work correctly?

Getting closer. I removed all logs, and all the servlets from (cd work/Catalina/;rm -rf *). Startet up tomcat, and as you said, all the web applications were generated under all three hosts (is that deploying?). But I dont understand why that happens. I have the Host attribute autoDeploy=false. You say disable deployOnStartup. Did you mean autoDeploy? What else can causee those apps to be precompiled as tomcat is starting up? What is the point of setting Host:webapps, Context:docBase and Context:path when all three virtualHost always take every application it finds under webapps?
