caching nightmare

2004-01-16 Thread Adam Hardy
Maybe I'm just an idiot, but I'm having a nightmare with the caching in 
my webapp. I asked a colleague to look at it and he's baffled too.

It's probably something to do with the resource bundles. I had 
everything in an English and also a German .properties file, for testing 
purposes, but then decided to ditch the German version until it's 
completely finished.

Even though I deleted the German .properties file, shutdown tomcat, 
deleted the whole webapp and redeployed and deleted the cache in 
$CATALINA_HOME/work/ , the German strings are still being cached 
somewhere.

I have run a grep on the German string to find it in any file in the 
whole of the tomcat install directory, but haven't found it.

In the HTTP headers, I have set pragma=no-cache, cache-control=no-cache 
 expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT

I have cleared the cache from my browser and done refreshes a thousand 
times. Could it be cached anywhere else on my machine between tomcat and 
the browser?

Yes, in a proxy. Caching proxies are use by some 
internet providers and they are often used inside 
corporate networks.

If we want to be shure that an url is not cached,
we not only set the response headers, but also 
append a unique id to the url that changes with 
every request. (As parameter)

Yes, tried that random querystring on the url, but no joy.

When I switch the language from German back to en_us, I see what I want 
to see. But switching German on again in the browser redisplays this 
ghost resource bundle!

Does that mean it can't be the browser?

And I'm pretty sure I don't have a proxy, unless there's some extremely 
well hidden linux proxy on my localhost! But it also couldn't be the 
proxy, since this is just the locale changing, not the URL.

Tomcat Authentication Nightmare

2003-06-30 Thread Kevin Andryc
Hi all,
In a previous project, I decided to use Tomcat authentication and just
had nightmarish troubles. Telling people they couldn't bookmark the logon
page just isn't a solution. Plus, many people had serious problems trying to
login. They would enter in their user name and passwords multiple times, and
still could not get in. I would honestly say 25-30% of the people had
problems, which did not reflect well on me. Previously I used Apache
authentication, but it is just not as flexible as Tomcat, but then again I
never had a problem with it. I was wondering if there are any suggestions
for authentication? I don't really want to use Apache for this upcoming
project and would really prefer a Tomcat-like authentication mechanism where
I could use a database to hole user names and passwords etc. Any suggestions
would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Kevin

Re: Tomcat Authentication Nightmare

2003-06-30 Thread John Turner
Not sure what you are looking for, but we do this on all of our web apps.  
Users can bookmark the login page all they wish, in fact the login page is 
index.jsp.  They type their username and password in, click submit.  This 
posts to a JSP, the JSP checks against a database, and approves or 
disapproves.  If approves, sets a session variable.  On every other JSP, 
there is a check for the session variable.  If not set, bounce to 
index.jsp.

There are probably other much more elegant ways to do it, and probably ways 
to do this built-in to Tomcat, but the method above works for us.

If there's another, more elegant way to do this, I'd love to see an 
explanation of it and the rationale for it.

John

I've been adding more logging to the SSL components in TC 5.x (at DEBUG or
TRACE level, so it doesn't show up unless you ask :).  Some of that will
likely find its way back into future versions of TC 4.1.x.  At the moment,
yes, the logging of errors (especially ones that could be config related) is
pretty sparse.

Nightmare with Tomcat 4.1 and SSL configuration

2003-06-04 Thread Cosmin
Hi there ,
I've just registered to this list in hope that I could find some better
advice here . I am trying to configure a standalone installation of tomcat
to work with SSL . This at first doesn't seem like a bit headache . I have
followed the two similar howtos at the sun website and jakarta website and
have gotten the same result .

The only wierd thing about setting it all up was using keytool . I am
using a FreeBSD 4.8 machine with Tomcat 4.1 and linux-jdk1.4 . At first
the linux-jdk1.4 keytool didn't seem to work ( telling me that /dev/random
has reached the end of file ... i looked and this was a blank file ) . So
I generated they key using the FreeBSD jdk1.4 ( suposedly of alpha quality
) , exported it to a file then imported this file into a new keystore :
/root/.keystore using the linux-jdk1.4/bin/keytool .

I then added the following to my server.xml :

Connector className=org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector
   port=8443 minProcessors=5 maxProcessors=75
   enableLookups=false
   acceptCount=100 debug=0 scheme=https secure=true
   useURIValidationHack=false disableUploadTimeout=true
  Factory
className=org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteServerSocketFactory
   clientAuth=false protocol=TLS
keystoreFile=/root/.keystore
   keystorePass=changeit/
/Connector

Tried restarting . As I was watching with netstat the 8180 port opened for
a split second then closed . Tomcat seems to die the moment i try to start
it with the ssl connector uncommented . The moment i put comments arround
the SSL connector Tomcat starts up and works fine again . . .


Has anybody here , ever encountered this miserable problem ? I've been
stuck on it for 2 days and I don't even get an error message to start from
somewhere . no error logs are... WOOPS :) ... found a very relevant error
:

Re: Nightmare with Tomcat 4.1 and SSL configuration

The standalone SSL connector for 4.1.24 only works with Sun's 1.4.x JVM.
There is support in the CVS for other vendors.  You could try checking out
the coyote_10 branch of jakarta-tomcat-connectors, and see if you have more
luck.

 John,

 I had a similar problem, which seem to be resovled by explicitly setting
 the path of the cookie to / before adding it to the response.

 Cookie userCookie = new Cookie(U_ID, userId);
 userCookie.setMaxAge(94608);
 userCookie.setPath(/);
 httpResp.addCookie(userCookie);

 After reading the Servlet docs, it seems the behaviour for setting a
 cookie without first setting it's path is undefinded. I've found that
 with Tomcat, new Cookies use the current URL of the request instead of
 the / when a path is not specified. I also believe there may have been
 a few bugs with previous versions of Tomcat and Cookies which have been
 resolved with newer versions.


Setting the cookie path to / will cause this cookie to be sent back to
*all* web applications on your server, not just yours.  It is safer to set
the cookie path to return just to your web application:

  userCookie.setPath(request.getContextPath());

 Hope this helps,

Off topic:cookies nightmare!!!!!!!!

2002-04-29 Thread John Regan

I am John Regan.

Environment:
NT
IE 5.0
Tomcat 4.0
Struts 1.0

When a user requests our index page we write a pagehit sequence # to the
client's cookie through the following code:
//no cookie exits
   else {
Cookie pcookie = new Cookie(P,r.getPagehitcode());
pcookie.setMaxAge(60*60*24*365);//1 year
response.addCookie(pcookie);  
   } 
which works fine, I look in my cookies directory and find a file named
jbr@jsp[1].txt(where does it grab this name from?) which contains the
correct value for P.
The user clicks on a link on the homepage, this where things start to go
very wrong.  In the action class I loop through cookie values in the
following manner:

Cookie[] cookies = request.getCookies();
Cookie cookie;
   Cookie schangecookie = null;
   if (cookies != null) {
for(int i=0; icookies.length; i++) {
cookie = cookies[i];
servlet.log(cookie + cookie.getName() +   +
cookie.getValue());
if (cookie.getName().equals(P)) {
schangecookie = (Cookie)cookie.clone();
schangecookie.setValue(r.getPagehitcode());
response.addCookie(schangecookie);
 }
}

The log shows the only cookie in the request is the following:

JSESSIONID A37259C0F90335C6B3B177A1C2679413

The P value which I see in my cookie is not in the request!  Not to
mention, I don't where JSESSIONID is stored!

Can someone clue me in to what might be happening?

Any help is much appreciated!

RE: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Jim Urban

 I doubt I'm the only one who has complaint.
We have no complaints.  We have been using Tomcat for almost 2 years now.
We have installed it at several client sites on several different platforms
with no problems.  Tomcat is just another Java application.  If you
understand the Java platform (CLASSPATH, JAVA_HOME, etc), installing Tomcat
should not be that difficult.  BTW:  We run Tomcat standalone, with IIS and
with Apache.  Of the three, Tomcat is by far the easiest to install and
configure.

I could say yes and no.

I think Tomcat is great, but installatin is not so easy as Apache with PHP and

I guess people need more clear examples to do simple configuration tasks till get the

Personally I think that both of you should calm down.

Normally I agree that a Tomcat installation is easy.

*However* I spent an hour this weekend trying to install Tomcat on
a Digital OpenUnix (or whatever they're calling it), and had to give
up for now.

I *like* Tomcat, but people new to Tomcat may find the installation
process, er, difficult.

On the other hand, calling software that works fine crap doesn't
help anything either. 

Good luck to both of you, and I hope you can calm down.

 Do what you want. I feel sorry about you. You're losing the best and calling
 Tomcat a crap tells you're a loser.

I agree, and look. There was an opportunity some time ago to build an entire
Tomcat Book about installation, configuration and problem solving about
Tomcat. We needed volunteers. But guess what. Nobody lasted for more than 3
weeks. Come on, this is free software, it's impossible to pay someone for
documentation, it has to be made by us, but no one can. So if we don't try
to post constructive messages we won't get anywhere.

All,

I would have to say that, while the installation for Apache-Tomcat was not
without its problems, getting the standalone version up and running was
literally minutes from downloading the software.   MINUTES i tell you.
That said, once i was pointed in the direction of mod_jk.so my world became
a lot easier.

The support on this list is TOP-NOTCH and i have to take my hat off to the
Apache crew (and others) that monitor and respond to the questions.  I know
they must get sick of same questions time and time again, but i have to say,
they were polite, courtesy and fast in responding to my problems.

Re: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread todd tredeau

I completely disagree with you. I am NOT a programmer, and pretty easily 
figured out the BASIC installation, ie:unzip/expand and run. Is it 
possible this is a case of No Planning, or Not Reading the ample 
documentation, How many unanswered questions have you posted?  

I'm sorry, but this type of message leaves me to believe you spent NO 
effort to solve your own problems, read the documentation, or spec your 
project.

It would seem that PHP, JSP, CFM, ASP, etc.. are each suited to 
particular needs. I can't say that I would want to go from one to 
another without a better plan.

In 16 years, I have seen a lot of software, for a lot of money, free, 
commercial and everything in between. I personally haven't gotten that 
involved in open source projects except for the last couple years, 
while I don't feel I'm qualified to do much, I do what I can. The power 
of hundreds and thousands of minds, is far better than anything I have seen.

While it is often true, extra pains are taken to get things working, 
installed or configured, typically if you have a clue what you are doing 
to start with it helps. At the same time, I have never posted a question 
without some sort of positive response, perhaps, if you considered 
putting your demand for perfection aside, you could learn and contribute 
to the project, providing feedback and guidance to developers so they 
know what works better, that is the power of any project.

Would I be correct in assuming your trying to run tomcat on windows 
platform? I would agree with you however on one thing, there are far too 
many strains of Tomcat out right now Stratify your projects...too 
hard to support too many.

Tomcat Installation/Configuration is very quick and easy and can be done
under 10 mins - if u understand the classpaths funda and know where to put
your files.

For Advanced Configs if u need to take the tweak it a little bit, a little
more  effort is required but that is true of any software.

Calling it 'crap' isn't the solution.If u had posted u'r problem here maybe

Re: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Martin Mauri

You don't understand. The only way we can have better docs is to do it by
ourselves. There's no extra possibility. The developers can't spend much
type documenting because they're busy with the development. So the only ones
able to document are people who already have solved certain problems and
have the know-how on such items. This person would be a key being a
volunteer for documentation but unfortunately only a little want to do it.

 I agree.  I gave up trying to get tomcat and apache to talk together and
 would have loved better documentation, and perhaps examples that work.
 Don't get me wrong, I love tomcat, I just want to put my vote in for
better
 docs.

  I could say yes and no.
 
  I think Tomcat is great, but installatin is not so easy as Apache with
PHP and
  documentation about installing sucks.
 
  I guess people need more clear examples to do simple configuration tasks
till
  get the idea. I've installed Tomcat in my XP in 10 minutes but I'm
trying to

Java it's a great tech with great future. I love PHP, but if you look around on

Re: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Ken Martin

Upon 4/8/02, todd tredeau saith:

 I completely disagree with you. I am NOT a programmer, and pretty easily 
 figured out the BASIC installation, ie:unzip/expand and run. Is it 
 possible this is a case of No Planning, or Not Reading the ample 
 documentation, How many unanswered questions have you posted?  

I think there's some interesting things in this topic. Even unzip/expand and run has 
problems (like on Mac OSX if not using gnutar). The docs really are ample, but they 
are intimidating to someone not used to Java.

Nevertheless, I'm a newbie to setting something like this up, and I'm running just 
fine. This list has been very helpful!

BUT, think about this... in Árni we see someone who possibly didn't read the docs, or 
only skimmed them, and still with *his* install habits was a) not able to install 
Tomcat, and b) *was* able to install PHP. Two different outcomes from two different 
server-side technologies that are often compared side-by-side. Both are developed 
freely.

There is a momentum behind PHP where people write more tutorials, offer more full 
solutions as freeware (blogs, calendars, etc.). PHP's ease of installation may in part 
help it's adoption, and grow the community, and provide more resources, which helps 
it's adoption...etc...

I know there are big differences and best uses for the different technologies, but an 
awful lot of server-side technologies are never used to the point of maximizing their 
characteristic benefits.

From the 'I just want to download and see if I like it' perspective, Tomcat does 
suffer a bit, IMO. Also in the available solutions (which I think are great learning 
tools and in some cases complete solutions).

Maybe I just don't know where to look.

For many of us, this is hardly a laughing matter.  Yes, installation is very
easy.  However, proper deployment is very difficult.  You'd like apache to
handle the non-jsp stuff and pass the jsp to tomcat.  You'd like apache and
tomcat to start up properly upon reboot.  You may wish to invoke some of the
very rich capabilities of tomcat.

I spent several days deploying tomcat.  It works, but I'm not sure why.  If
I really understood what I was doing, I would be happy to write it down for
others.

Deploying tomcat is *not* Java.  It is a complex set of configuration files
within separate products.  I have been working with Unix since 1980 and with
Java since its inception.  I almost gave up on tomcat.  Something needs to
be done to make tomcat more accessible, but I can't say what.

I still can't get tomcat to use beans properly.

I have been playing with another open source project, Chiki... It is an 
extreme programming project. I have been very impressed so far with 
this. I have thought, of being able to have a web site, where anyone 
could enter / create / edit content, along the lines of These tips and 
documentation issues... perhaps, if there is enough interest we could 
begin with a few topics, ie: Step by step install / config by plaform, 
tips, QA, etc... I created a site linked to my Open Source support 
site, wiserlabz http://chiki.wiserlabz.com It is really pretty 
awsome so far, with more to come.. Revision Control is build in, which 
will help... take a look, give it try, or install it and try it 
yourself. There are a few quirks with it handling some tags, etc... 
but it's getting there, and pretty awsome, providing a cool, interactive 
editing environment.

However the install documentation is way too long, too many things users

RE: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Timlin, Bob

We are running a similar setup.  Go to the Apache site for Tomcat and do a
search on Java Service
Notice for JDK 1.3 users:  There is a known problem in JDK 1.3 that affects
Java applications being run as Windows NT services.  The bug causes the
service to terminate when the currently logged in user logs out.  The
simplest way to work around this problem is to use JDK 1.2.  If your
application requires JDK 1.3 features then you may want to look into
javaserv or JavaService.  Users have reported success with both of these
packages but there may be others that work as well.

BTW: you may want to try 4.0.2.  It is more stable than 3.2

re: NIGHTMARE REVISITED

2002-04-08 Thread todd tredeau

Hello;
Thank you for coming back we all have those days look, I 
run tomcat on NT, but i'm not the right one to solve the problem, your 
right, this was very hard to get working... I did, but never quite 
right, so I just run as development, and not as a service, and have no 
problems. Actually I run it a little on this laptop as well, and it runs 
good... Let's break this problem apart first; in this order, and let 
everyone try to explain..

1.General Tomcat 3.2.4 on NT2000 or suggested Tomcat (best) for Win32..
2.IIS and Tomcat
3.Tomcat as a Service.

Thanks again for coming back, this just show the quality of the 
people who come to this group and are willing to help.

Sorry for the flame :)

Just got very frustrated. I am very patient, and yes I've read the install
documentation carefully and followed it step by step, that I am sure of.
However the install documentation is way too long, too many things users
have to consider.

My setup is Win2000, IIS and Tomcat3.2.4.

I've managed to get tomcat to work, however it doesn't run with IIS nor did
I manage to install tomcat as a service.

My problem is this
When starting the NT service I get:
Asked (and given) winsock 1.1
Error: StartServiceCtrlDispatcher failed.

I completely disagree with you. I am NOT a programmer, and pretty easily
figured out the BASIC installation, ie:unzip/expand and run. Is it
possible this is a case of No Planning, or Not Reading the ample
documentation, How many unanswered questions have you posted?

I'm sorry, but this type of message leaves me to believe you spent NO
effort to solve your own problems, read the documentation, or spec your
project.

It would seem that PHP, JSP, CFM, ASP, etc.. are each suited to
particular needs. I can't say that I would want to go from one to
another without a better plan.

In 16 years, I have seen a lot of software, for a lot of money, free,
commercial and everything in between. I personally haven't gotten that
involved in open source projects except for the last couple years,
while I don't feel I'm qualified to do much, I do what I can. The power
of hundreds and thousands of minds, is far better than anything I have seen.

While it is often true, extra pains are taken to get things working,
installed or configured, typically if you have a clue what you are doing
to start with it helps. At the same time, I have never posted a question
without some sort of positive response, perhaps, if you considered
putting your demand for perfection aside, you could learn and contribute
to the project, providing feedback and guidance to developers so they
know what works better, that is the power of any project.

Would I be correct in assuming your trying to run tomcat on windows
platform? I would agree with you however on one thing, there are far too
many strains of Tomcat out right now Stratify your projects...too
hard to support too many.

That is true, however I understood the original question to be about
Installing Tomcat.  Of all the products I have worked with Free and For
Sale, I have found Tomcat to be one of the easiest to use.  I also found the
documentation with it very helpful and most JSP books provide there examples
for Tomcat.

RE: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Lecaros, Noel

Hi Arni,

Have you checked the tomcat logs in %TOMCAT_HOME%\logs\jvm.stderr (or
jvm.stdout)?  There also appears to be an issue with the wrapper.properties
file (which you supply as a command-line parameter to jk_nt_service.exe) in
that the wrapper.jvm.options is not being properly read if left blank.  If
you're using JDK1.3.1 or higher, put wrapper.jvm.options=-Xrs.  It should
start properly.

I notice that you're using v3.2.4.  Any particular reason for sticking to
that version?  I am using v3.3.1 on Win2K with IIS.  Tomcat is also running
as a service.  If it's any help, I could post the detailed steps here for my
setup, or e-mail them direct to you.  In my opinion, v.3.3.x is the most
well-documented and well-supported version of Tomcat for Win2K.

You are right in that there are many documents (or rather, parts of
documents) to read in configuring Tomcat.  Not only that: given the numerous
versions of the software, it's practically essential to note down the
version number when asking for help.  Often, you'd have to search through
the mailing lists for resolution to a specific problem (assuming one
exists!).

Hope this helps you, and if you have any questions, just ask it on this
list.

Regards,

Noel Lecaros

I agree that the documentation on virtual hosts is too abstract, unless you 
want to really learn what you are doing, rather than merely how to do 
it.  An example of different sample server.xml configurations would be advised.

Hi Martin

I could say yes and no.

I think Tomcat is great, but installatin is not so easy as Apache with PHP 
and documentation about installing sucks.

I guess people need more clear examples to do simple configuration tasks 
till get the idea. I've installed Tomcat in my XP in 10 minutes but I'm 
trying to get virtual hosts working from 3 days ago. I'm frustrated and

I think Tomcat is great, but installatin is not so easy as Apache with PHP

Two suggestions to the original poster:

* Use a current version of Tomcat, with the associated documentation.
  Tomcat 3.2.4 was released over two years ago, and has been superceded
  by two major versions since then -- and the docs have improved also.

* When you are first learning Tomcat, install it stand-alone, instead
  of behind a web server (Apache or IIS).  Once you understand the basic
  concepts it is much easier to go on to the web server configuration
  stuff.

In fact, anyone who *ever* installs Tomcat behind a web server is
subjecting themselves to needless configuration effort unless they
*really* need it.

Re: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Fabian Sommer

I disagree with the point that installing tomcat is a nightmare, but 
making it work properly with apache and understanding how to deploy an 
own web application takes a lot of time, although you might be familiar 
with strange applications...
And you are always stuck in problems where you don't get any idea of 
what is wrong because of error messages which don't tell you enogh.

btw: does anybody know if there is a possibility to catch tomcat error 
stack when tomcat itself crushes? I had a problem of tomcat crushing 
each time i tried to access my application, and i didn't know what was 
wrong! By accident i recognized that there was only missing the 
mm.mysql-driver in my class-directory. But i didn't expect tomcat to 
crush without any error message - i expect that i would have found the 
error much earlier if i would have got the complete java error stack for 
tomcat main-app...

thanks for comments...

Well I took a PHP class and asked my instructor about this scenario.

I installed SuSE Linux 7.2 with Apache and PHP pre-installed, then I
installed MySQL after the fact.  I couldn't get PHP to see MySQL, I asked my
instructor and he told me that I needed to install PHP after Both Apache and
MySQL were installed.  I found this strange to accept, but since I had no
desire to use PHP after the class I left it at that.

AW: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Ralph Einfeldt

That's a bit unfair.

What you say is just the easy part:
Running tomcat stand alone and just using the examples and the manager.

There are several problems that can make the installation of tomcat
quite difficult.

- The documentation is quite confusing.
  You have to read many documents to get startet and find out how to 
  achieve certain goals. (All this howto's are nice, but you already 
  have to know something to find out, which howto will help you to solve

  a given problem.) For some documents you need more knowledge than
  you need write and run simple php skripts. (e.g. Classloader-How-To)

Just some little examples (There are more):

Connectors:
  There are two connectors: mod_webapp and mod_jk
  For a beginner it is very difficult to find out which one to use
  and what's the difference between them.
  Both connectors have their pitfalls where you can easily get stuck.
  It can be hard to find out which one is suitable for the IIS 
  integration if you don't have enough patience. (The introduction just 
  talkes about apache, not iis, not netscape)
 
  It would be better to extend the introduction in 
  http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/ajp.htmlwith 
  with an enumeration which servers are supported and add some links 
  to the part where the integration to each server is described.

  The Howto is not well organized, the terminology is explained in the 
  apache howto. That's not where I would look if I would want to
integrate 
  with IIS (which I won't).

Download Page:
  If you go to the download page 
 
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.3/bin/
  there are many file listed.

  There is no hint what to to with this files, what's the difference
between
  *.exe, *.exe.asc, *.zip, *.tar.gz, *.tar.gz.asc.
  (The document RUNNING.TXT that is referenced elsewhere on the site
just 
   talks about how to install a nighly binary from a zip that has a
different 
   name than the existing files) that not a problem for someone who is
not 
   doing things like this for the first time, but for a beginner it's at
least 
   confusing.)

Some subtle problems in the servlet spec:
  Tell me what's wrong about this (and where can I find a document that 
  explains that):

  welcome-file-list
welcome-file/jsp/index.jsp/welcome-file
  /welcome-file-list

  (Tell me what happens. Read as much documentation or specification as 
  you like, but don't look at the tomcat source or try it)

  or
  welcome-file-list
welcome-filejsp/index.jsp?Action=Start/welcome-file
  /welcome-file-list 

  (Again)

One thing at last:
  As a servlet engine and jsp container tomcat offers much more than
  PHP can offer. But at the price that simple things can be more 
  complicated than in other script languages. Currently I have the
feeling 
  that some simple things are more complicated than neccesary. (Some of 
  them are more a result of the spec than just a tomcat problem.)

Hi

If logical. If you installed source code to compile and tried to install PHP before 
install MySQL, PHP will not found MySQL libraries and will not work with it.

If download PHP source code you will notice there is a file called INSTALL with 3

Well, it depends what you call difficult :)

I don't found difficult to make a ./config and make | make install

I suppose it's a design concept problem. PHP needs to be compiled with all you want to 
be supported, but rarelly you will need to do it more than one time. But, to config a 
virtual host in Apache with PHP support is by far more easy than to config a virtual 
host in Tomcat.

Personally I prefer to have complicated configurations. They give me jobs, money and 
food for my family. If configurations are easy and anyone could do it...why somebody 
will want to have my professional services ?=:-)

Yes I know. I have 6.22 and it works fine, though it's pretty heavy to start
up. Once it's up is damn good. And the interface rocks!

RE: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread Timlin, Bob

I read an article recently about why Microsoft is already dead.  Two points
were interesting.

1.  As PC's fall in price the percentage of the cost of the MS Tax
increases.
3.  Linux is already the official operating system of emerging economies of
India and China, as well as many Latin American countries.  Microsoft is
eyed suspiciously much more around the world then in the U.S.

Re: NIGHTMARE

2002-04-08 Thread George Shafik

Hi Arni,

About three years ago we went through many web servers in the market and found Tomcat 
simple to install.
We found it simple because we had a lot of exposure to different web servers that run 
in a number if different environments and an extensive background in the various 
programming and scripting languages targeting the web development especially in the 
area of java. 

What we did find was a lack of documentation beyond the out of the box install 
type.The way we resolved this was to use this great e-mail list and constructed our 
own internal knowledge base in addressing the various issues we encounter on a day to 
day basis.(we now do this as a standard procedure with all our open source projects, 
I'm sure there is a similar archive maintained by the apache/tomcat group ) Till this 
day I think I've only ever had to post two e-mails, this is my third - thanks for the 
opportunity :-)   

Regards,
George Shafik
