Right, and it's given you an error that explains your server.xml is
invalid.
Since it seems to work out of the box for many people,
I'm guessing you've edited it. Why not try reinstalling, and this time,
don't edit the server.xml file - as other people have mentioned, you
shouldn't need to.

If it doesn't work, then try examining the logs to see why, and post
any errors you see there.

And please try not to shout abuse at people who are trying to help you, it
means people who could help you instead set their mailers to ignore you.

  Hi Rasputin, lemme clue you in to the fact that I HAVE gotten Tomcat 4.1.16 
[version] to run successfully/smoothly by now!!! I posted that fact to the newsgroup 
late last nite, guess that you just haven't seen it yet! And as for me abusing other 
people please try not to shout abuse at people who are trying to help you,..., I 
guess that I was yesterday on Micael's case about the way that I percived him to be 
all the time with other people in the newsgroup!!! I thought that he received my 
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM rather well, wish that you could also take it that way. :)

Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

2002-12-02 Thread Bill Barker
In Tomcat's own (very verbose, but who said cats are quiet :) way, it's
saying that there are errors in your Context declarations.  In particular,
the XML is not well-formed (e.g. your elements aren't properly nested).
This is usually caused by forgetting a closing-tag, or writing Tag when
you meant Tag /.  Without seeing your server.xml, I really can't tell you
much more.  However it looks like the error is somewhere around line 369.

I have no idea what you did in the server.xml file.  I don't know what I 
put the context path in the ROOT section recently to try to view a JSP in

because I am afraid you will take umbrage at it.  I have no idea what you 
are trying to do or what you have done.  I do know that you can pretty much 
open up Tomcat, set the environmental variables, toss in a war, and run 
it.  You don't have to fuss with the server.xml file at all to do 
that.  What do you want to do?

RE: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

2002-12-02 Thread Turner, John

Hi Steve -

Many people have tried and tried and tried to help you get started
developing with Tomcat over the past several months.  Please understand that
it can be as frustrating for us as it is for you when many of us try our
best to help you only to find that it hasn't worked for whatever reason.

That said, you do not need to modify the path of the ROOT Context in
server.xml.  Just stick your JSP page in that directory and call it.  For
example, if Tomcat is installed in c:\tomcat, then you would put your JSP in
c:\tomcat\webapps\ROOT.

Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

2002-12-01 Thread micael
The envirnomental variables probably are irrelevant, so long as you did not 
change the name of your directories, especially the one Tomcat is in.  What 
you probably have is some problem with how you set up the web.xml, or a war 
or application in the TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory.  Since you don't say 
what you have done, it is impossible to tell.  If you download Tomcat and 
follow the simple directions, it works everytime in my experience.  So, why 
don't you start from scratch and keep a list of what you do, so you can 
tell us?  Probably, if you do that, you won't even have anything to say, 
because it will work.

JRun is another list.  Irrelevant here.  What?  Are you trying to do 
dynamic Flash or something?  Why would you want Tomcat and JRun?  Sounds to 
me like you might be mixing two incompatible servers.

 I WAS using the version 4.1.16 of Tomcat for a little while before it 
too started
to crash on me. I might suggest a possible solution: delete and then write in
again all of the environment variables in the System settings. Does that ring
true with anyone out there or not? I mean, once I finally figured out how 
to do
those variables the correct way, then everything sort of fell into place and I
finally got Tomcat going, at least for while. Listen, this is a bit off 
topic, but
I was also wondering if anyone out there knows anything about Macromedia's 
JRun
Server or not and how to configure it to run properly? There are 3 kinds of
servers for it, the Default, the Examples, and the Admin. I got the 
Default server
up and running twice last nite, and the Admin server running once earlier 
today.
The folders for the 3 kinds of servers are C:\JRun4\servers\[admin, examples,
default], and if I could just go to work editing them the right way, then 
I could
get JRun running.

Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

2002-12-01 Thread Jacob Kjome

Steve, again, you need to provide more info with your questions if you 
expect help from people.  Tomcat is crashing on me with no more info is 
totally useless.  What are the symptoms?  What stacktraces do you see?  Any 
info in the log files?

 Hello all. I need some help w. Tomcat 4.1.12 simply CRASHING ON ME when I
try/attempt to activate the damned thing!!! Now, what in the hell could be
possibly causing this anyway??!!!

 I WAS using the version 4.1.16 of Tomcat for a little while before it 
too started
to crash on me. I might suggest a possible solution: delete and then write in
again all of the environment variables in the System settings. Does that ring
true with anyone out there or not? I mean, once I finally figured out how 
to do
those variables the correct way, then everything sort of fell into place and I
finally got Tomcat going, at least for while. Listen, this is a bit off 
topic, but
I was also wondering if anyone out there knows anything about Macromedia's 
JRun
Server or not and how to configure it to run properly? There are 3 kinds of
servers for it, the Default, the Examples, and the Admin. I got the 
Default server
up and running twice last nite, and the Admin server running once earlier 
today.
The folders for the 3 kinds of servers are C:\JRun4\servers\[admin, examples,
default], and if I could just go to work editing them the right way, then 
I could
get JRun running.

one thing I have learned about running Tomcat on Windows:

It works great if I just unzip the bin download file and set the catalina_home 
environment variable manually. 

It has problems if I download the installation executable and install it via 
the installer.

just something I have noticed...

Kwok, the so-called crash is like it just flat disappearing on me!!! I
mean, it's like puff, like up in smoke so to speak!! And, in response to
a smurray, I already am and have been using the zip file version of Tomcat!!
Is there some merit to what I suggested, namely that I delete and then turn
around and set all of the environment variables for Tomcat in the System
settings?!

Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

2002-12-01 Thread Jacob Kjome

Steve,

I assume you are just double clicking on one of the Tomcat .bat files to 
run Tomcat.  Instead, open up a command prompt, cd to the directory where 
the .bat files are and type the name of the .bat file you want to run.  Now 
you will see the error output.

Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

2002-12-01 Thread Peng Tuck Kwok
As far as I can tell, the zipped version is identical to the exe distro 
for each identical version, save the fact that the exe lets you start 
tomcat as a service, create shell extensions and create the admin user 
for the tomcat administration.

Jacob's suggestion is useful, try and run the start.bat from a command 
prompt, it's easier to see the errors. The last time I encountered the 
error was when there wasn't enough environment space to keep variables 
in the autoexec.bat

Despite claims to the contrary, what you want to run on the command line is:
catalina run

This will dump the error messages to your current consol window, instead of
opening another window (that will go away).

Try a different JDK ?   Sorry earlier on about asking you to use
