Tomcat going down abruptly

[Venkatesh Babu]

Hello all,

We have hosted a small vehicle retail website using tomcat as app server. The 
site has been live from around 6-7 months, just that the number of vehicles on 
our site is increasing. The site was working fine till last week, but in the 
last week we are seeing that our site is unstable, and tomcat keeps going down 
regularly. We are not able to find out the exact reason behind why this is 
happening. Tomcat log files are not containing note of any exceptions or error 
conditions resulting in tomcat going down.

Can anybody tell me as to how we can find out the cause?

As far as our webapp is concerned, addition of vehicles will cause increase in 
memory usage, but we are hosting our site in a machine having good amount of 
memory (2GB RAM).

Given below are details of our setup:

Hardware - AMD Opteron 170 (2GHz)
OS - Redhat linux 
Memory - 2 GB RAM
Tomcat - 4.1.31
Apache - 2.0.47

Thank you,
Venkatesh

Only if your application uses those timezones. Tomcat internals are
not affected by any of the daylight savings issues.

Can't say I've seen it, but you should be able to use javap to dump the
class file of interest, and at least identify what index 63 actually
points to.  You also might want to use -Xlint:all with javac to see if
there are ny suspect constructs in the source code.

Re: How does one configure Plain host domain url to run web app?

[Rashmi Rubdi]

You are right, the set-up I've mentioned only works for one application.

Perhaps you want to configure multiple virtual hosts. 

There's an example on that here: 
http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Guide+to+using+Apache+Tomcat's+Virtual+Hosts

You won't need Apache HTTP connector, just Tomcat is fine I think (not sure).

On MS Windows , configure the hosts in the 
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts , by adding this line:

127.0.0.1 pebble practice

Then configure these two apps in server.xml , as:




 




 





Then you'll be able to call 2 different applications on the root context , for 
example http://pebble:8080/   and http://practice:8080/  , you might be 
able to do something similiar on Unix, and also might be able to change the 
port to 80 , from 8080.  

I give credit to Hassan for explaining the above configuration to me a few 
months ago.

Over here 
http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Guide+to+using+Apache+Tomcat's+Virtual+Hosts
  it also says 
because the above configuration uses name-based virtual hosting, you need to 
have entries in your DNS server for "app1" and "app2" that point to the 
application server

By which I meant, httpd is an extraneous complication, unless you
really need to have something like PHP or other service outside of
Tomcat. Do you?

If that's the case, mod_proxy_ajp is far simpler to configure than mod_jk.
But if not, simplify your life :-)

getInnerMostDelegate returns null after 24+ hours

[darrin.edelman]

Hello all -
 
Before anyone jumps the gun - we've had an application running in production
for the last several months so this isn't the usual issue with
"setAccessToUnderlyingConnectionAllowed".  
 
The issue is transient - occurring sometimes after 24+ hours operation and
seem to have started after our customer's IS team applied a daylight savings
patch (and some security patches) to their server last week.   The obvious
solution to back out these changes is not an option (so I'm told).  I'm
wondering if anyone has experienced this issue before and has a work around.
Here's the code causing the problem:
 
   conn = OracleDAOFactory.createConnection();  
   Connection dconn = ((DelegatingConnection) conn).getInnermostDelegate();
---
 
[The code for createConnection is below for reference.]
 
This body of code is executed in the top of many of our DAL methods... for
some reason it seems that the native connection that we get via
getInnermostDelegate returns null.   Againt the problem doesn't happen right
away BUT we are pretty sure that once it shows up it doesn't go away
(perhaps the result of associating our statements with caching).  You will
note that we do ((BasicDataSource)
ds).setAccessToUnderlyingConnectionAllowed(true).  Also we've done a
complete code review and we are certain that we NEVER close the dconn -
rather we are always closing the parent connection.  We've also checked to
be sure that we never close a connection twice... 
 
If anyone has ideas on how configuration or code could be wrong it would be
greatly appreciated.  Another challenge here is that we don't seem to be
able to reproduce this problem outside of the production environment.  In
production (as mentioned) this manifests after 24+ hours of successful
operation.  The current (painful) workaround is to bring down the tomcat
server and bring it back up.
 
We are considering adding a check to the code on the dconn - when the dconn
is null fetch another and remove the offending connection from the pool.
Has anyone had to implement such a thing before?  If we take this approach
is there any clean way to discard that connection so that it is not reused?
I have a current prototype that removes it from the pool if the delegate is
null and never "closes" it again so that it would effectively be removed
from operation but eventually the DB Pool will recycle these "abandond"
connections... or worse - we'll run out. 
 
Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance,
-Darrin F. Edelman
 
 
 
--- code for createConnection ---

if (ds == null) {

Re: Turn off Tomcat Version on 404 error.

[Rashmi Rubdi]

Custom 404 error pages can be specified in Tomcat's web.xml file located under 
TomcatFolder\conf\

Add the following to the web.xml:


  
 404
 /web/not_found_404.jsp


I've also seen this in some project's web.xml , instead of Tomcat's web.xml - 
but haven't tested it.

Some common mistakes to avoid :

- Don't name the error page with a number , for example don't name it with 
404error.jsp - as JSPs get transformed into Servlets , and Java class names
  can't begin with numbers. 

- The order of appearance matters, so place the above error-page tag , after 
the last servlet-mapping xml node.

Re: Could filter redirect the request from one servlet to another servlet ?

[David Delbecq]

No you can't really do a redirect from the filter. All the filter can do
is alter the request/response/session
However, what you an do i a filter for servlet /xyz that, under certain
conditions, don't call the rest of filter chain but immediatly tells the
browser (HTTP moved temporarily status code) to reissue same request to
/abc. This is not an internal server redirect, you ask browser to
reattempt operation somewhere else.

You could do an internal redirect (request -> requestDispatcher ->
forward), but it would short circuit the filter chain, some important
filter might not be executed.. The forward is, i think, supposed to
happend after full filter chain has been executed.

If you *must* use Apache for whatever reason, you'd be better off

Re: How does one configure Plain host domain url to run web app?

If you place your application as ROOT.war , directly under Tomcat's webapps 
folder then Tomcat should load it on the root context / 

But if it's named anything else then it will be at the // context.

I have mine set-up like this on a clean install of Tomcat 5.5 (with no 
additional configuration) and the web application loads on the root context.

If you place an index.jsp directly in the root folder of your project then, 
that takes care of hiding the directory listing and rendering the home page of

Nothing wrong with redirects.  They're quite appropriate to allow the

Re: SSO ID in the first request

[Gregor Schneider]

I guess you're talking about JSSOSessionID-Cookie, right?

I believe the whole design is not too smart:

Since all webapps are sharing the same session, I'd store the needed
values as session-attributes (too lazy to look it up right now, but
should work like

HttpSession session = .;
session.setAttribute(String nameOfYourObject, Object yourObject);
Object yourObject = session.getAttribute(String nameOfYourObject);

However, this works only when running all your webapps within the same
Tomcat-instance.
If this is not the case, take a look at webservices.

RE: Apache - tomcat connection on Suse Lnux

[Larry Isaacs]

The presence of "/usr/share/tomcat5" in the servlet-api.jar
path suggests you are using a packaged install of Tomcat.  While
doing some Eclipse Web Tools testing on SUSE 10.x (I think 10.1),
the "servlet-api.jar" it was installed as a dependency of the
Tomcat install and was symlinked as "[servletapi5].jar".  It worked
fine as a symlink, but for this install, you won't be able to use
"standard" (i.e. Apache Tomcat download equivalent) batch scripts
or names which aren't compatible with alterations made to create
the packaged Tomcat install.  There isn't enough info to tell why
startup is looking for a jar named servlet-api.jar.  The packaged
install wouldn't normally do that.

Cheers,
Larry

Re: Apache - tomcat connection on Suse Lnux

[David Smith]

Looks like the error says it all.  Tomcat can't find servlet-api.jar in
common/lib.  Check that it really exists there and isn't a symlink. 
Tomcat isn't known for tolerating symlinks all that well.

Could filter redirect the request from one servlet to another servlet ?

[Erica Zhang]

Hi,

Thanks a lot for Thomas and Tim. I know an overview about filter for 
requests and responses. Now, I am not very clear if a filter could 
redirect the requests from one servlet, which is originally to handle 
the request,  to another servlet, which is really to handle the request 
after the redirection?


Thanks,

Erica

Yes.
1. Check the DNS settings of the machine. example.microsoft.com should be 
resolvable.
2. Connect to a server that presents a certificate to your client that matches 
the host's name or set a HostnameVerifier with a verify method that returns 
true for this connection.
3. Connect to a host that actually returns content and not only an error 
message.

BTW: this has nothing to do with Tomcat.

RE: Can one map a servlet to a specific connctor?

[Peter Kennard]

Try ServletRequest.getLocalPort() rather than getServerPort().


Yes exactly, thanks - that is an addition to the api after the book I read :)
eclipse auto-complete and the sun website is your friend :)

*

Part of all these questions is I am looking to implement a servlet 
subclass which will "auto register" itself with an upstream front end 
(maybe AJP does this?) so ideally I would want to be able to query 
what URI "host,port,path" would access the proper connector and 
servlet when it's "init()" is called so I can pass it to upstream to 
the front-end router.  Of course at this time no request has been 
recieved.  I guess I could do it by parsing the server.xml or putting 
in rendundant per servlet initParameters but that makes me queasy, I 
like the thing itself to propagate it's own state changes :)

Yes.  Tell Documentum to find and fix the memory leak in their

Tomcat different docbases multiple context

[kyle999312]

we are using Tomcat 5.0.28 and currently we have about 100 different contexts
.ie domain/a.. domain/b.. and so on all of which run off of the same code
but each domain runs against a different database.  Currently everything
runs off its own docbase /a looks at /a, /b at /b and so on.  I dont like
the fact that we have the same code duplicated 100 times makes maintaining
and updating a pain and it seems like it wouldnt be the best result
performance wise.

Would changing everything to point at one docbase improve the performance of
tomcat? 
Are there other performance enhancements I could do to help out tomcat?
It seems like when we get up to around 100 threads in tomcat that tomcat
will start really struggling usually results in a out of memory error we
have 4 gigs of ram and i think we were able to allocate like 1.2 or so to
tomcat should we be able to handle more then 100 threads at a single time?

Im not much of a tomcat person but it seems we should be able to get some
better performance out of it so any help is appreciated

Thanks

Memory continues to increase (Tomcat5.exe)

[Jayson Enriquez]

Hi - 

 

I am not a developer. I support an application called EDMS (Electronic
Documentum Management System). To run this we too must utilize Tomcat to
launch JVM. I restart Tomcat to release memory usage on a daily basis.
(Task Manager) We start at 260mb and by the end of the day we are at
900+mb. This depends on how many users are connected and rendering jobs.
Is there a permanent fix to keep tomcat5.exe memory usage stable? The
memory increase can cause our server to error out on 'lock'.  Please
assist.

 

I've read article in http://tomcat.apache.org/faq/memory.html#why but
did not help.

 

System config>:

 

Tomat5 - 5.0.28 server

Java VM - j2sdk1.4.2

OS - win2k

Mem - 3gb

Processors - 4

Tomcat https

[daniel martin]

Hi,
I'm trying to get my tomcat instance to connect over https to an external
server.
I have written a test servlet to do this

String httpsURL = "*https*://*example*.microsoft.com";
   URL myurl = new URL(httpsURL);
   HttpsURLConnection con = (HttpsURLConnection)myurl.openConnection();
   InputStream ins = con.getInputStream();
   InputStreamReader isr=new InputStreamReader(ins);
   BufferedReader in =new BufferedReader(isr);
   String inputLine;
   while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
   out.println(inputLine);
   in.close();


But always get the following exception

java.net.UnknownHostException: example.microsoft.com
java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:177)
java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:519)
java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:469)

Any ideas?

Cheers

Dan

Re: Cannot start tomcat5 service with jrockit

[bb]

Hi,

We are running 5.5.17 as a service using JRockit. A couple things to check:

1) if you are using the service.bat to install as a service confirm that 
the PR_JVM is considering the correct path to the jrockit dll. this 
should be std in the 5.5.20 service.bat:


rem Set the server jvm from JAVA_HOME
set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll
if exist "%PR_JVM%" goto foundJvm
rem Set the client jvm from JAVA_HOME
set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll
if exist "%PR_JVM%" goto foundJvm
rem Check for JRockit JVM: Bugzilla 39674
set PR_JVM=%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\jrockit\jvm.dll
if exist "%PR_JVM%" goto foundJvm
set PR_JVM=auto

2) you might need to add the %JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin to the environment 
PATH. I didn't think we had to do this for Win2003 but it was required 
for XP.


Hope that helps.

[Peter Kennard]

I Verified this returns the port indicated by the client in the header.

Not the port the request was recieved by at the tomcat instance.
Appropriate for a client to send and passed through by proxys, 
remappers, front ends etc. but not to determine where it ends up.

ServletRequest.getServerPort() is inherited by HTTPServletRequest.

SSO ID in the first request

[Fredrik Tolf]

Hi List!

We are developing a couple of webapps that need to talk to each other,
and to do that, we have been using HTTP to just fetch certain URLs from
the other webapps to the requesting webapp. To ensure that the
programmatic request is carried out in the context of the user doing the
client request to the first webapp, we are fetching the SSOID cookie
value and putting that in the request to the second webapp. (I hope I'm
making myself clear)

However, we have encountered the problem that if the user is not already
authenticated upon the client request, the SSOID cookie doesn't exist,
so we can't forward its value to the second webapp. We haven't been able
to find a good workaround for this problem so far, so I'm turning to you
good people on the list for assistance.

What do you think? Are we making a mistake in using the SSOID to begin
with and should just think of another way, or is there a way to do this
properly. We have thought of the following workarounds -- could you
please tell me what you think of them?

1. Write a subclass of org.apache.catalina.authenticator.SingleSignOn,
which catches a call to the register() method and puts that SSOID in a
request attribute, which can later be fetched from another webapp to do
the second request.
2. Write a filter, which upon detection of a non-existing SSOID cookie,
sends a redirect back to the same URL to the client, which should make
the AuthenticatorBase valve send the SSOID cookie to the client, so that
it exists when the client comes back.
3. Use reflection somehow to fetch the SSOID cookie from the SSO valve.
I don't think this is possible, though, thanks to Tomcat's protection
against reflection from webapps.

Thanks for reading!

DST2007 - 3 Character Time Zone Problems with Java Patch

[Sharma, Siddharth]

Hi
Does anyone know if Tomcat is affected by this?
I have Tomcat 5.5.16 with Sun JRE 1.5 patched with TZupdater on RHEL.
Thanks
Sid


Explanation of scope of the 3-character time zone problems with Java
Applications (DST2007 - Java Patch)
 
Abstract   
Two types of 3-character time zone incompatibility problem have resulted
from the change introduced by the Olson table in late-2005 and these have
been present in all Sun and IBM® Java(tm) 1.4.2 and 5.0 refreshes since
mid-2006. They are also present in all instances of Java 1.4.2 and 5.0 that
have been patched by the IBM Time Zone Update Utility for Java.

Re: Chrooting Tomcat // Linux threading issue

Hi Roman,

To be honest I don't really understand your concerns with 2.6,
but if you really want to be running anything that uses threads,
use a 2.6 kernel.

If the Java Tomcat App that you are running is just a frontend
to something else, and not really for production purposes, then
you can happily stick with 2.4

And yes - 2.6 with NPTL is MUCH faster under high load than
using an old 2.4 kernel.

In my experience Java 1.5 is also much quicker than Java 1.42

Nothing wrong with redirects.  They're quite appropriate to allow the
browser to properly evaluate relative links in pages without the need
for the extra gyrations you're suggesting.

Watch out for case sensitivity here; both context.xml and web.xml must
be lower-case file names.

Don't remove things from common/lib - Tomcat itself needs what's in
there.  Remove duplicate classes and jars from your webapp instead.

RE: Tomcat 5.5.23 Will Not Unpackage Application

[neilac333]

There is nothing in shared/lib.  I did, however, find commons-el.jar in
common/lib.  I removed it, but I continue to get the same result.

Here are the remaining contents of common/lib:

commons-logging.jar
jasper-compiler-jdt.jar
jasper-compiler.jar
jasper-runtime.jar
jsp-api.jar
log4j-1.2.14.jar
naming-factory-dbcp.jar
naming-factory.jar
naming-resources.jar
servlet-api.jar

Off the top of your head, do you know any others I should consider removing?

If someone is looking to impliment a new PRODUCTION install of Tomcat for 

Centric CRM - or some other purpose - is version 5.5.* really that 'old' ?

In terms of what people are finding from actual use, is version 6.* 
considered a stable release OR 
more of a beta release ?


(I mean,  MS considered Vista a 'stable' release - so if those guys with 
millions of dollars and
 man hours and QA ability missed one or two things - so might anyone 
else.)

Re: The requested resource (/) is not available.

[David Smith]

It would except tomcat just serves up folders with out web.xml files as
static resources.  A WARN might be in order, but that's about it.  In
addition, tomcat does not chase down sym links.  Best practice is to be
sure all required resources are contained within the webapp.

I assume this is taking it from where the hit arrives in at the

ServletRequest.getServerPort() is inherited by HTTPServletRequest.

Re: Chrooting Tomcat // Linux threading issue

[Roman Medina-Heigl Hernandez]

Hello David,

There are tools/scripts which try to automate the process of chrooting an
application, i.e, guessing libraries needed and so on. But they usually
require additional work (fine-tunning, etc), trial&error tests, etc. Being
Tomcat/Java a common application (at least amongst this list's users), I
had supposed some of you have already done this work and could share with
me their findings/work, so I could anticipate problems, issues, etc.

Cheers,

I'll think about it. Performance, in this case, is not too much relevant. I
was indeed worried about "memory exhausted" problems and things like that,
but not about how speedy my application could run. If the application is
stable enough in 2.4, I could keep that kernel. Many people consider kernel
2.4 more secure than 2.6, and in my case I prefer security to performance.

Would I notice big performance improvements if upgrading? (specially
regarding threading?) 1.5 or 1.6?

Thanks for your help, Andrew. It is appreciated.

Cheers,

The answer is very simple: customer uses this version of Tomcat and wants 
no upgrade.

Re: Chrooting Tomcat // Linux threading issue

[David Delbecq]

Hi,

it's, as far as i know, impossible to chroot tomcat after startup
(unless some JNI tools to do it exist am not aware about)
So, like any other application you would chroot before linking, you need
to ensure your chrooted environment contains all libraries needed by the
JVM (don't ask me for this list, sun doesn't provide it)

also your JAVA_HOME should be updated after chroot :)
and tomcat script will required availabilty of bash most probably.

Look for NPTL and Linux in Google...

I would seriously recommend upgrading to a 2.6 kernel - (unless  
performance

for your web app is irrelevant)
It would also be time to think about an upgrade to Java 1.5 or 1.6.

RE: Same version of Tomcat

[p.logaraman]

 

Hi All,

 

I need to clarify a doubt which I have come across..

 

Can we have two instances of the same version (for eg. Tomcat 4.1.24)
running on the same server in parallel.

 

If there is a possibility, pls do let me know what are the ports that
need to be changed on the server.xml.

 

I am able to run only one instance at a moment. I have also specified
port 8080 for one and 8081 for the other,.

 

Require your comments and suggestions

 

Regards

Logu

AW: AW: AW: Cannot run JVM in server mode with JSVC

[Peter Neu]

Sorry, couldn't get back to this as I had a week off.

I set jsvc to debug mode. The problem was: the search path for 
jvm.cfg was here : .../jdk1.5.0_06/jre/lib/jvm.cfg while the 
actual file resided here: .../jdk1.5.0_06/jre/lib/i386/jvm.cfg. 

What I did I just copied the jvm.cfg to the search path and everything
went all right. ;o) 

Thanks for the help!

Cheers,
Pete
