Installing Servlets

2004-02-16 Thread jhespinosa

I am trying to install my servlets in tomcat 5.0.1. on Windows 2000

I compile the files:
javac -classpath servlet-2_3-fcs-classfiles.zip MyServlet.java
**I download the file servlet-2_3-fcs_classfiles.zip from the sun site.
And then copy to the default servlets examples directory.
copy MyServlet.java C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 
5.0\webapps\servlets-examples\WEB-INF\classes

When I try to access the servlet I get the following error:
   HTTP Status 404 - /servlets-examples/servlet/MyServlet

But I can access the example servlets.

What can be wrong?

Jose Humberto.

Weird Problems installing servlets in Tomcat

2003-07-22 Thread Rhino



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. That's when the weirdness 
started: I can't install the WAR file in Tomcat. It always fails on the same 
error: 

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 
org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUpload.setSizeMax(I)V
I checked the Javadocs and found that the setSizeMax() method is part of 
the class FileUploadBase, not FileUpload, so I immediately suspected that the 
Linux box had an older version of the commons fileupload jar, which only went to 
version 1.0 at the end of June. I searched the Linux box and found 
commons-fileupload.jar, which is NOT the current version, and also found 
commons-fileupload-1.0.jar which IS the current version. I deleted the old one 
and now the only version of the jar on the server is commons-fileupload-1.0.jar. 


I tried installing the WAR file again but get the same error. I even tried 
installing a newer version of a different WAR file that doesn't do file uploads 
and IT failed on the same error. What is going on here? 

I took a peek inside the commons-fileupload-1.0.jar and got this, which 
looks just fine to me:

Any ideas anyone?

Yeah.  Compile with the components on your deployment classpath in the compile 
classpath.  That's a standard practice to ensure consistency and avoid the errors 
you're seeing.

FileUploaded went through a couple of 1.0 RCs before the final 1.0 release that did 
not work with tomcat.  If you're really interested in the details, search the 
commons-dev list archive.

Tomcat 4.1.26, which is looking like the next stable release at the moment, have the 
fileupload 1.0 final.  Feel free to download and use it.

commons-fileupload-1.0.jar is in /var/tomcat4/server/lib.

I'm not sure if that's the *best* place for it but I thought that was one of
the two places where you can put jars and have them visible to all the
servlets that might need them.

Umm, no.  From the classloader how-to, regarding the server/lib and
server/classes: These classes and resources are TOTALLY invisible to
web applications

Move it to common/lib or keep a copy in server/lib and another in the
WEB-INF/lib directory of your webapp.

Re: Weird Problems installing servlets in Tomcat

2003-07-22 Thread John Turner
That's probably the worst place to put it, according to the ClassLoader 
HOWTO:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/class-loader-howto.html

I would try $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib or better yet $CATALINA_HOME/lib.

The former if ALL web applications PLUS Tomcat internals need access, 
the latter if just web applications need access.

Obviously I can't tell which methods are there via this technique. I'm just

the late-June version of the commons fileupload jar, as opposed to one of
the betas or RC* releases which had earlier dates. I'm taking it on faith

Move the JAR file to where it should be, like $CATALINA_HOME/lib or

RE: Weird Problems installing servlets in Tomcat

2003-07-22 Thread Shapira, Yoav

Howdy,

Obviously I can't tell which methods are there via this technique. I'm
just
trying to show the dates on the different classes to show that they are
from
the late-June version of the commons fileupload jar, as opposed to one
of
the betas or RC* releases which had earlier dates. I'm taking it on
faith
that the method I want is in there. Frankly, I'm not really sure how to
tell what methods are in a given class in a jar file.

Using the dates is not conclusive.

One way to tell what methods are (or more importantly for this case,
aren't) in the fileupload jar is to compile your classes against it.
Not compile them someplace else and then deploy, assuming it's the same
jar file.

I'm not sure I understand your advice. I did the compile in Eclipse on
my
Windows machine. All I'm doing on the Linux box is importing a WAR file
that contains the already compiled class files from Windows.

Either include the fileupload jar against which you compiled in the WAR
file, or compile against the fileupload jar that's on your linux
machine.

| Tomcat 4.1.26, which is looking like the next stable release at the
moment, have the fileupload 1.0 | final.  Feel free to download and use
it.

Do I really need to do this? Tomcat 4.1.24 and
commons-fileupload-1.0.jar
seem to work fine on my Windows machine. Shouldn't they also work fine
on
the Linux box?

They should work fine, but they aren't because somewhere along the way
from your windows setup to your linux setup is a different fileupload
jar.  The reason I mentioned it is that tomcat 4.1.24 and 4.1.26 use
different versions of fileupload, that are inconsistent as far as the
API goes.

I'm still relatively new to Tomcat and Linux so I may be asking stupid
questions; if so, I don't mean to be. I'm just trying to understand
what's
going wrong. It's very possible that I've made some kind of newbie
mistake;
I'm just trying to understand what it is and how to fix it.

This is more of a general issue: make sure you're compiling against the
same libraries that you will deploy to.  No question is stupid, but this
is a common error.

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?

RE: Weird Problems installing servlets in Tomcat

2003-07-22 Thread Bodycombe, Andrew
Tomcat 4.1.24 comes with commons-fileupload-1.0-beta-1.jar bundled in the
$CATALINA_HOME/server/lib directory. Tomcat needs this file to work, and
also this version because the interface changed between this beta and the
1.0 final release. Tomcat is relying on the interface from the beta version
(this may explain the NoSuchMethodError), so this file should be left where
it is.

If you wish your webapp to use the 1.0 release version of
commons-fileupload, you can put in the WEB-INF/lib directory inside the .war
file, or if you wish to share between several webapps, you can place the
file in $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib

So, you may actually need 2 copies of commons-fileupload to get your
application working:

$CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/commons-fileupload-1.0-beta-1.jar
$CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib/commons-fileupload-1.0.jar

Two small problems though:

find the source for it but I don't have a C compiler so I need a binary. The
only binary seems to be the commons-fileupload-1.0.jar. Or would I be better

2. Why is the Tomcat on my Windows box working? I've deleted the beta jar
from /common/lib and everything still works fine there. I don't have another
copy of either the beta or the 1.0 jar anywhere else in that copy of Tomcat.
Shouldn't Tomcat on the Windows box be failing the same way? Mind you, I
don't import WAR files on the Window box; Eclipse and Sysdeo take care of
everything for me.

I'm pretty confident now that everything will work again as soon as I put
the beta jar back in the /common/lib and put the current jar in the
/shared/lib. (I'll be doing that on both the Windows and the Linux boxes,
just to be safe, as soon as I find the binary of the beta jar.)

Even though things aren't actually working again yet, I really appreciate
all the help that you, John, and Andrew have rendered. It's much appreciated

How right you are! And most of the time I *like* the fact that I don't have

you in the ass.

Tell me, does this make sense to you? 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.

I don't really want to keep flogging this dying horse but understanding this
issue might give me some useful insights in understanding Tomcat in general,
which could be handy in further problem solving

 Hi,
 if you have a servlet named HelloWorldi believe you
 have to put your classes on
 webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/ and access it with
 URL
 http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorld;
 Let me know if it works. ;)

Re: newbie: Installing Servlets

Hi there,

once you're comfortable with the basics I suggest you have a look
at the Jakarta Ant project, and the docs in the ROOT webapp in
the basics of using it: ant reduces the amount of work you have
to do moving/copying files into and out of directories.

I am having problems installing servlets on Tomcat.  I place the .class file

http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorld is probably the correct
link...
