Re: Problem with Tomcat and Java versions
I think I could require that, but as a last try - if nothing else would work... But I really think this should be able to be solved without reinstalling. The thing is that when I only restart tomcat (with /etc/init.d/tomcat5 restart) things start working fine! So i don't think it's a tomcat problem, but a tomcat configuration problem.

I'm having a little trouble with regards how filters actually work. The following all happen inside filters (tomcat 5.5, latest stable release): 1) Wrapping the HttpServletRequest with one which modifies request.getRequestURI(), request.getPathInfo() request.getServletPath() does not seem to work, as at this point tomcat seems to have already decided what server will proces the request. 2) using request.getRequestDispatcher(path).forward(request,response) seems to work, however, this does not cause the Filter to be reapplied as I would have expected if called at this stage in the request parsing process. 3) When declaring a filter in a web.xml for an application with a url-mapping of /* seems to break hideously if there is also a default servlet also declared in the web.xml (the application specific web.xml, not the server web.xml) [I can and will probably will have to provide further info on this] seems to break rather horribly causing tomcat to server up unprocessed jsp pages, and fail to do directory indexes, even though without the filter mapping it works correctly. -Antony Riley LEGAL DISCLAIMER.

webapp under different URLs with different JSP but same java classes
Hi, I'm not sure whether it is possible or not: I have a webapp which I want to access under different URL's with different JSP's but the same java classes. I know that I can define the context URL in the context.xml But how to define which jsp's to use ? Example : Context path=/a docBase=/myapp /Context Context path=/b docBase=/myapp /Context In myapp I may have a folder jsp_a and jsp_b. Path 'a' should use JSPs from jsp_a and path 'b' should JSPs from jsp_b. Of course I can set up two different webapps. But the java classes and so the the content of the WEB-INF/classes directory will be identically for both webapps. I'm using Tomcat 5.5 under Windows 2003.

Re: webapp under different URLs with different JSP but same java classes
You could use a javax.servlet.Filter apparently, and say redirect requests
to a particular servername to /jsp_a and redirect the rest to /jsp_b.
basically installing a filter which does the following:
public void doFilter(request,response,chain) {
if(request.getServerName.equals(server1) {
request.getRequestDispatcher(/jsp_a + request.getRequestURI
()).forward(request,response);
} else {
request.getRequestDispatcher(/jsp_b + request.getRequestURI
()).forward(request,response);
}
}
I can't comment if that's the correct way to do it as I'm a little bit new
to filters.
You'd declare it in your web.xml as
filter
filter-namefoobar/filter
filter-classcom.whatever.MyFilter/filter-class
/filter
filter-mapping
filter-namefoobar/filter-name
url-pattern*/url-pattern
/filter-mapping

The solution we found was to add the recylce_timeout property to all of our workers in the apache/conf/workers.properties file: worker.tc1.recycle_timeout=120 This setting will kill threads that have been inactive for two minutes (the thread checking takes place once a minute by default). We've been running for a week with this setup and have had no recurrence of the problems you describe. If you are running tomcat 5.5, you can set the threads pool size for connectors in server.xml using the maxThreads property of the connector. If you are not running apache/tomcat, you will have to change the settings on the tcp/ip connector port. Hope this helps. -Original Message- From: Mike Sabroff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 10, 2006 8:20 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat out of memory At our company we bounce tomcat every morning via a cron job Burak Y wrote: Hi all; I have a web site where 200 users online at average...These user overload started in these days...

RE: Realm and Authentication with Tomcat 5.0, Apache 2 and mod_jk 1.2
Sorry for jumping into the discussion. The comment I'd like to make is that you can't really separate the security realm from authentication. In other words, a security realm is an integral part of user authentication. If user authentication is done by apache, the realm (the term realm is kind of used for app servers exclusively) should be provided by apache. If it is done by tomcat, the tomcat realm should be used. In this case, one option is to use or customize the mod_auth of apache (http://localhost/manual/mod/mod_auth_dbm.html), which is the apache realm for doing authentication. Another option would be just letting tomcat do the authentication by setting the tomcatAuthentication field to true.

The original design of this authentication/session creation mechanism was made by another developper who knows Tomcat better than I know (but not enough apparently ;) ). If I understand correctly, your suggestion is to write a custom valve which will be used as our missing link between the Apache authentication and the Tomcat Realm call. Is this correct? The Valve will access the username/password in the header and explicitly call the Realm (Kind of similar to the SSO Valve)? Cheers, Mickael Bill Barker wrote: Mickael Goujon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, We have a web application deployed under Tomcat 5.0 which uses a custom Realm for authentication. This custom Realm basically does a web service call using the user's credentials to authenticate with the web service server (basic WS-I username/password authentication). If the web service call fails (user not allowed to call the web service with his credentials), then Tomcat authentication fails. If the web service call succeed (user has access to the web service), then Tomcat authentication succeed and the Realm will store the Session object returned by the web service in a ThreadLocalContext to be reused later in the web application. This works fine with Tomcat only, but as soon as I add mod_jk and try to use Apache to do the authentication and then pass the credentials to Tomcat (using tomcatAuthentication=false), I get the 403 - access denied page. I'd like to know if, in my configuration (Apache authentication + Tomcat Realm + tomcatAuthentication=false), Apache is supposed to pass the user login/password to the Tomcat Realm or if the realm is not called at all (This would be the bad news I fear)? Sorry for the bad news, but the Tomcat Realm is not called at all in this situation. Also, Apache doesn't forward the password directly (although it is still in encoded in the Header). My combination Apache/Tomcat/mod_jk works when I specify tomcatAuthentication=true. But, I'd like to have Apache authentication and the Tomcat Realm called automatically after that with the username/password... Is this possible or do I have to move my Session creation process somewhere else? A custom Authenticator is probably over-kill here. I would probably just use a custom Valve. But as-is, you do at least have to add something (or, modify your copy of the Tomcat code :) to invoke the Realm.

Off topic: Email bounce handler code?
Does anybody know of any good Java/servlet code that handles email bounce processing? When our automated systems send an email that bounces (lots of hotmail bounce if the user has an account but just hasn't logged in the past 30 days), we'd like a somewhat reliable mechanism to associate the bounce with a transaction in our system. I'd guess I'd put a special header in so that bounces that return headers or return the original message can be parsed. I've seen some mailman type code, but they rely on the SMTP server being able to handle mangled email addresses, but that's not generally an option for us as we often need to rely on existing SMTP systems in which at best we can configure the return path to be a given mailbox that we can analyze.

Yeah did something similair a number of yeah ago, but was not with TomCat. Instead used ACS, Oracle Server and qmail, where we used oracle to read the mail messages, from qmail store, into the database and the ACS to read those messages. Cannot remember off the top of my head how it was done, but we had set the bounce back to a unique id which qmail would associate with a mailbox for us.

Re: From Java to C#, ASP.NET [Off Topic]
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am surprised to see no one reply your message. For the thread, here's what I have to say. The original poster shared some frank and sincere experience and feeling. However, it lacks sorely the technicality of the comparison. For example, no links to the video demo the guy was talking about, no point about each feature, and why he thinks one is better than another. I didn't look at the video, but scan through the tutorial, I was surprised to find out that Netbeans and Creator would do most of the things it shows. What tool did the author used? What kind of app did he develop (I know he mention J2EE, but that's a large spectrum). From playing with the previous version of the studio (2003 or something), looking at many of the tutorial today on the site, I don't see much advantage. For the language itself. I have seen discussion about delegate, and other stuff and I don't see a clear advantage. I am surprise the thread head thinks it is. I programed in Swing and the event model seems to fine for me. It's never was a problem for me. The IDE needs better GUI development support, but not the language. Layout also is a bit problem, but 10 times better than the old VB days. With Netbeans 5 and Matisse, I think the thread head should check it out and compares a bit better. I see a lot of praise from the thread head, but I just don't see the how that is true. George Sexton wrote: I've been developing with Microsoft Products for 15 year. At one point I was an MVP, and I was on the original MVP program steering committee. Here's what I can tell you about MS product development. A lot of my comments are going to be about FoxPro, which I used most, but the same issues exist with other tools. Corporate strategy drives tool development, not developer desires. Several years ago, with FoxPro, OLE forms was the big thing. So, the bulk of the development effort went into creating the ability to run FoxPro forms as OLE controls in a browser. None of the developers wanted it. They wanted an improved report writer and menu system. No one that I know ever used this capability. There are ALWAYS a lot of unexpected problems when using MS tools. Take for example, memo fields and ADO. You basically only get one shot to read a memo field from an ADO result set. Once you access it, its consumed and you can't get the value again. There's also a problem in ADO if you don't make sure that memo fields are the last elements in a select list. In FoxPro, if you assign a string longer than 200 characters to a caption, the caption isn't displayed at all. Its not truncated, and it doesn't throw an error, it just doesn't display. You're just sitting there, scratching your head wonder why the heck it isn't working. If you create a view in FoxPro that is select * from table, and someone modifies the base table, you'll get an error opening the remote view, and you have to drop the view and re-add it. Don't even get me started on Windows Installer technology. Bugs RARELY get fixed. There's a problem in the Excel ODBC driver. If the first 6-8 rows are digits, the driver assumes the column type is numeric and will throw an error if later rows have characters. There's supposed to be an override feature to set the type, but it doesn't work either. Another example is THEAD/TBODY tags. There is a KB article for IE 4.0 (Q190278) saying that failure to support THEAD/TBODY tags for printing was a defect (although the revised KB article now says this is by design). This was never fixed in IE 4.0, 5.0, 5.5, or 6.0. I don't have IE 7.0 so I can't say if they have added support for it or not. There's a real corporate culture that says customers are fools, and these quirks don't have to be repaired. The problem is that a small bug in a development tool can easily consume a day of developer time. Tool strategy churn is another problem. Their development tool focus changes every two years. Did I mention tool strategy exists to sell servers (SQL, Windows, etc)? Right when developers become comfortable with a technology, the focus is changed. The end result is that companies end up with a series of core applications, each developed using a different toolset, methodology, or mindset. Developers never become proficient at a tool, and consequently quality of applications just sucks. These things make it almost impossible to accurately fix bid a project. You just never know when some obscure bug reported 5 years ago is going to come out and bite you. From my experience, I've had perhaps 1/10th of the development tool problems with Java compared to using MS tools. I can accurately cost estimate Java projects, and do them profitably. I know that I probably am not going to run into any bugs (where a large project will hit at least 5-10 in the MS world). So, good luck. I hope you're really happy. But, I think that when you have the experience and the career span that I do you'll start
