servlet-mapping required??? Tomcat 5 upgrade problem...
Hi, I'm using Struts with Tomcat, and am upgrading to Tomcat 5. It appears that it won't recognize any of my servlets, though, which I could previously call though ...[webapp]/servlet/servletname. I managed to call them by adding a servlet-mapping to eliminate the /servlet/ bit, but this is an existing app and I don't want to change everything to that degree. Can't I still use /servlet/ ? What am I missing? cheers, David - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, See http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/misc.html#invoker. You should have always had servlet-mappings.

You need to enable the invoker servlet in your web.xml.

Sorry for the traffic - I solved it myself.

RE: servlet-Mapping using Tomcat 4
Howdy, 2. Name of JSP = whoKnows.war I'll assume you meant name of war file. 1. The main problem ist, that 'normal call' (/whoKnows/) works fine. That means that I get my index.jsp, and all works the way I wanted to. BUT, if I use /whoKnows/foo/bar my java-class of my jsp-Servlet (defined in whoKnows web.xml) is directly called (skipping my index.jsp). But I still want that my index.jsp is called first. May JSP-Page knows what to do with the java-class. Any Idea how I can configure this? You need a filter also mapped to /foo/bar which inspects the request or session to see if an attribute is present. That attribute is one that's placed there by index.jsp. If the attribute is not present, the filter will redirect the request to index.jsp. If the attribute is present, the filter will let the request proceed. 2. The default context ist the Name of the JSP in the webapps-dir. In this case it is '/whoKnows'. Is there any trick, that I cann change this? Yes, read the Context configuration reference in the tomcat docs. I know that it is possible to configure an context for every application in tomcats own xml-configuration files. But who is this done, and is there any better possibility (doing this in whoKnows web.xml for example)? You can include a context.xml with your war file. Or configure the context in $CATALINA_HOM/conf/server.xml. Again, read the Context configuration reference.

servlet-Mapping using Tomcat 4
Hi, I am a newby to JSP's, but I already love it. The Situation: -- 1. ServletServer = Tomcat 4 (Standalone) 2. Name of JSP = whoKnows.war 3. Using to deploy = Tomcats-Manager-Interface (FileUpload) 4. Servlet-Mapping (in whoKnows's web.xml) to = /foo/bar 5. Host of VirtuellServer = localhost (default) 6. Port of Host = 8080 (default) 7. OperatingSystem = Linux 8. DeployDir = $TOMCAT_HOME$/webapps My application (whoKnows.war): - 1. My index.jsp takes some information from the user 2. Using form action= method=POST.../form to pipe this forward 3. Using http://localhost:8080/whoKnows/index.jsp works just fine! The problem/question: - 1.

servlet-mapping problem - tomcat 4.0.1
How do I default a user to my servlet without blocking access to other directories? Using a default mapping of / results in failure to gain access to resources under my servlet directory. I think I have a fairly standard set-up of tomcat 4.0.1 on win2k. Within C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\webapps I have a directory structure like this: myapp styles global.css WEB_INF web.xml lib [jar files] web.xml defines a servlet whose output includes a reference to http://mysite.com/myapp/styles/global.css If I set my servlet mapping up like this: servlet-mapping servlet-namemyapp/servlet-name url-pattern//url-pattern /servlet-mapping then the stylesheet cannot be loaded when the user surfs to http://mysite.com/myapp/ Alternatively if I set up my mapping like this: servlet-mapping servlet-namemyapp/servlet-name url-pattern/foo/*/url-pattern /servlet-mapping then the stylesheet can be located, but the user must surf to http://mysite.com/myapp/foo/ How can I configure tomcat or structure my directories so that a user can surf to http://mysite.com/myapp/ and also successfully access the stylesheet? Note that the above is a contrived example. The real servlet includes many other resources in the myapp directory to which the servlet refers. Any advice would be most welcome.

Re: servlet-mapping problem - tomcat 4.0.1
Its a little clunky, but you could use your second 'foo' mapping, and then have an index.htm that does a meta-refresh to redirect them to your servlet: meta http-equiv=Refresh content=0; url=foo/ Not nice and invisible I know, but it'll work.. ian - Original Message - From: Scott Eade [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 21, 2001 12:53 PM Subject: servlet-mapping problem - tomcat 4.0.1 How do I default a user to my servlet without blocking access to other directories?

RE: servlet-mapping problem - tomcat 4.0.1
servlet-mapping servlet-nameMyServlet/servlet-name url-patternindex.html/url-pattern /servlet-mapping I think you have to have an empty index.html file to convince the welcome-list that its valid. This will take all index.html files, so if you have other index.html files in other directories, add a dummy.html to the welcome-file list and map it to your servlet. I recall doing this in 3.2, so I'm not sure if it still works in 4.0 - although I don't see why it wouldn't.

Using a default mapping of / results in failure to gain access to resources under my servlet directory. Understanding this requires a little explanation about what is really going on. * The servlet mapping pattern of / establishes the default servlet -- in other words, the servlet that Tomcat will hand the request to if it can find no other servlet mapping that matches. * Tomcat, out of the box, defines a default servlet that serves the static resources (including your stylesheet). * You can take over the default mapping yourself, but then you give up Tomcat's standard file-serving service and do it yourself if you still need that feature. To give you suggestions, it would be helpful to understand what you mean by default a user to my servlet. What application functionality are you trying to accomplish? Thanks Craig. What I would like to do is be able to serve up some static content from the root of my web server, say http://mysite.com/ and from there provide a link to an Apache Turbine application located at webapps/myapp. I am simply hoping to provide a relatively clean url for the application - http://mysite.com/myapp rather than http://mysite.com/myapp/foo. I actually have this working at one host provider that uses Zeus and Resin. The root directory they provide contains the necessary resources (styles, templates, etc.) along with the WEB-INF directory that contains a web.xml with a url-mapping of /myapp/* and everything works fine. I am switching to a new hosting organization that uses Apache and Tomcat and I am only now running into this problem. I thought the problem was that the new host provider is running tomcat 3.1 (upgrading to 4.01 next week) but then I realised that all of my development was being done under tomcat with servlet mappings that included at least some additional component such as /myapp/foo/*. Ultimately I guess I am worried about the aesthetics of the url, however it would be great if I could somehow mimic the behaviour of the old site. What about users that have bookmarked the old address without the foo - I'll have to provide a redirect for them on top of a redirect that turbine does as a matter of course. This will cause some messy behaviour at the beginning of my application. Incidentally the new hosting organization provides me with my own virtual tomcat server. By default they configured a root context (path=) pointing to a directory called public_html and I had them provide another (path=/myapp docBase=/home/myaccount/tomcat/webapps/myapp) where I am installing my turbine application. I do have the ability to change server.xml and restart tomcat if this will help. I host provider does need to alter something (mod_jserv or apache I guess) if I add any new contexts. It is unclear how this will change when they upgrade to tomcat 4.01. I hope this gives you a clearer idea of what I am trying to achieve. Thanks in advance for any advice.

How can I make the servlet mapping of Tomcat work with Apache http server?
I read Craig R. McClanahan's article Developing Applications With Tomcat coming with Tomcat. The article gives a sample application also coming with Tomcat. The sample application uses a servlet mapping. The servlet mapping works fine with Tomcat. But it does not work when I use Apache http server with Tomcat together. Anybody can try it which is used at the link of a html file to a servlet. Author seggests me to get help at here. web.xml, httpd.conf, and tomcat-apache.conf are attached. Can anyone give me a hand?

Hi.. I have mapped requests to any resource in my images directory under my application context, to the home page of my application. But the problem is that the internal references to the Images directory are also being routed to the home page. I dont want my internal references to be considered while mapping. I want the mapping to work only when the resources under image directoryare referenced externally through an URL from the location bar of a browser. Regards.
