Unless I explicitly undeploy the webapp, the session is preserved. When I followed the exact sequence given above - using both manager and LambdaProbe - no undeployment occurred, just an application reload, and the session data was properly recovered and remained intact. Try updating your logging.properties to set the logging level for your webapp to FINE, restart Tomcat, and then do your procedure again.

All the contexts started when Tomcat started. I don't think they did - at least they didn't in my testing with 6.0.18. However, ten seconds *after* Tomcat started, the autoDeploy monitor kicked in, and that did deploy all the webapps. I tried setting autoDeploy to false as well, restarted Tomcat, and then nothing deployed - ever. Nor could I figure out a way to deploy anything manually, since the manager webapp wasn't deployed (catch-22). One way around this is to keep your webapps in some directory other than the one pointed to by the appBase and deploy them by placing a element with the appropriate docBase setting in conf/Catalina/[host]/[appName].xml when you want the associated webapp to start. Your Tomcat shutdown script would then remove all such files to prevent their automatic redeployment on the next Tomcat startup. But let's back up one step from the original question: why do you not want the webapps to deploy when Tomcat starts? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

RE: Serving Multiple Application Versions within the same Context
Chuck, Thank you for the quick informative reply. My main objective is to have my client's URL not change and have any redirection to a different version be transparent to them. What exactly would you recommend? Since I've never seen the webapps/production#1.0.war approach, I would have to experiment to see how that exactly works. Would a redirection filter only be sufficient? Thanks again for your input!

Do you really want to do that? Wouldn't it be better to have a separate for each version? Mixing them together in the same classloader (one per ) sounds really risky as well as being a maintenance nightmare. It would be better to deploy each application version as a separate .

Serving Multiple Application Versions within the same Context
I'm creating a web application where I want to define each region (Development, User Acceptance Testing, and Production) as separate contexts. Ultimately, clients will use www.mycompany.com/production/index.jsp to access my web application. While designing this application, I would like the ability to serve multiple application versions within the same context. This would allow me the flexibility to control access to a new release. Is there a way within Tomcat to manage multiple applications within the same context allowing me to direct Company A to www.mycompany.com/production/1.0/index.jsp and Company B to www.mycompany.com/production/1.1/index.jsp? I was thinking of creating this functionality through a database using the usersession to determine which application version to serve. I've read Tomcat documentation and haven't found a definite answer, but I'm relatively new to configuring Tomcat 6.0.18. I don't want to recreate this functionality if Tomcat already has it available. Thank you in advance for your help.

Altogether 4 tomcats and they form a cluster. ... In front of these two machines is an Apache 2.2.10 in a VMWare Fusion virtual Machine on Windows XP in the Mac and configured as a Reverse proxy Here is the reverse proxy config from the httpd.conf ProxyRequests Off BalancerMember http://bml0039.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 BalancerMember http://bml0073.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 ProxySet lbmethod=bytraffic ProxyPass /tc/ balancer://pathCluster/ ProxyPassReverse /tc/ balancer://pathCluster/ SetHandler balancer-manager Order Deny,Allow Allow from .yalepath.org Here is the access_log from the reverse proxy: 10.84.2.195 - - [20/Mar/2009:12:09:48 -0400] "GET /tc/CassetteLabeler HTTP/1.1" 302 - Returns with a trailing slash redirect 10.84.2.195 - - [20/Mar/2009:12:09:49 -0400] "GET /tc/CassetteLabeler/ HTTP/1.1" 200 1506 Returns Content with 1506 Bytes 10.84.2.195 - - [20/Mar/2009:12:09:49 -0400] "GET /CassetteLabeler/pathology.labeler.labeler.Labeler/Labeler.html HTTP/1.1" 404 260 Wrong request, Prefix /tc/ missing. You need to find out, where this request comes from. Likely it is either generated by someone using a link in the page returned by the previous request, or that page contains a meta tag in the head, which triggers a redirect to this wrong URL. So retrieve /tc/CassetteLabeler/ and have a look at the content to identify, whether the wrong URL "/CassetteLabeler/pathology.labeler.labeler.Labeler/Labeler.html" is in the page. If no, we have to think further. If yes, you have to ask, why is this wrong URL in there. The question is, how your application generates this URL. If it generates absolute URLs instead of relative ones, then you can easily run into trouble, when the path of the real application is different from the path used from the outside. It is not unlikely though, that in such a case the app or the framework used has a configurable path prefix. But first check, if you can verify the wrong URL is somewhere in the content of the page. The request from the reverse proxy did go to the XP machine: Here are the log entries from the access log: 10.84.2.195 - - [20/Mar/2009:12:09:49 -0400] "GET /CassetteLabeler HTTP/1.1" 302 - That's only the first request, answered with the trailing slash redirect. The next request is the interesting one (the one answered with status 200). It also has to appear somewhere in your 2nd laqyer httpd logs.

But that we already know. The next request is the interesting one. I have a production environment - just with 3 Macs and just one tomcat per machine forming a cluster - where a very similar configuration runs fine. The only difference is that the sticky parameters are NOT with the load balancer but with the real workers in the workers.properties file, This is very likely not the cause. and the reverse proxy configuration somewhat different. Here it is: ProxyPass /apps/ balancer://balancer-group/ stickysession=JSESSIONID ProxyPassReverse /apps/ balancer://balancer-group/ BalancerMember http://pathsrv1.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 BalancerMember http://raid2b.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 BalancerMember http://reptile.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 Looks pretty analogous at first sight.

Re: Setting Tomcat System Properies **without** -D on Command Line
The custom way would be to write a startup listener that its only goal
is to load a prop file and promote its properties into the System
environment.
It could look somethng like this:
package cowbell;
import org.apache.catalina.Lifecycle;
import org.apache.catalina.LifecycleEvent;
import org.apache.catalina.LifecycleListener;
public class PropListener implements LifecycleListener {
public void lifecycleEvent(LifecycleEvent event) {
if (Lifecycle.INIT_EVENT.equals(event.getType())) {
try {
System.getProperties().load("fixMe");
} catch(Throwable evil){
}
}
}
}
And in server.xml like this:

If this is not the case is there a standard way that would be the

Tomcat supports use of an admin-supplied setenv.bat or setenv.sh script in which you can specify values for the CATALINA_OPTS environment variable. This will be used on the command line that starts Tomcat. You can write the setenv script to read the values you need from anywhere. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

Setting Tomcat System Properies **without** -D on Command Line
Hello, I would like to be able to configure system properties at Tomcat start-up *without* adding them to the startup command line, for example you might add -Dxx.yyy.zzz=123 to the command line to add a system property called xxx.yyy.zzz with a value of 123. I want something other than this I was hoping that there might be a way of loading an additional properties file in a similar way to catalina.properties but I cannot see this in documentation. Does this exist? If so can someone point me at the documentation please. If this is not the case is there a standard way that would be the recommended way of writing a custom plugin for Tomcat to do this? Thank you for your time & effort, M

Help with Security Manager
So, I'm trying to configure my webapp to be able to create/read/write a
directory outside of the webapp directory.
I start tomcat with the -security option after adding the following to the
bottom of the catalina.policy file:
grant codeBase "${tomcat-home}/webapps/smc-appsuite" {
permission java.io.FilePermission
"${tomcat.home}/webapps/smc-appsuite/-", "read";
};
grant codeBase "${tomcat-home}/webapps/smc-appsuite" {
permission java.io.FilePermission "/cas/db/smc-appsuite-db", "write";
};
I added the first because enabling security resulted in this:
Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.io.FilePermission
/apache-tomcat-5.5.27/webapps/smc-appsuite/WEB-INF/classes/logging.propertie
s read)
I've tried plenty of permutations with this, and no luck. Can someone help?

Re: reversed proxy stopped working with tomcat cluster
Hi Chris, In our production environment we have 3 Xserves, all running apache2 , mod+jk and Tomcat. There are about 5-6 web applications running on these 3 servers standalone, -non-clustered - and there will be more. The there Xserves are doing other things too, not just web serving. That is the reason I cannot reduce the number of apache2 instances. They grandfathered in themselves :) This CassetteLabeler app is our first application that needs to be up all the time and that is why we turned to clustering, using the existing setups on these servers and hoping that just by small config changes here and there we can get our clustered app runing without worrying about the non-clustered apps. You know, the goat has to have a full stomach and the cabbage had to remain too :) . Not to destroy accidently anything in the production environment, I created a small test environment, simulating our production environment. Because I do not have 3 machines, I used the VmWare Fussion on my Mac with Windows XP to create the third machine, and to simplify things I do not run mod_jk and Tomcat on it just Apache2. The four Tomcats are forming a Tomcat Cluster. Because the individual Apaches have to communicate to their own Tomcats via their own mod_jk for the non-clustered webapps /non-clustered because they cannot be serialized/ to reach those apps, the users connect via: http://balancemember1.yalepath.org/Standalone1 kind of URL and it goes through port 80 to mod_jk and mod_jk passes it via ajp to to the appropriate tomcat. We need to preserve this behavior for the clustered app, that is why in the reversed proxy configuration the default port 80 is used. I do not think that I can changed that one. The reason for the reverse proxy is, that two of the machines in production are behind a Pix firewall and the users of the clustered app can get to it by hitting the reverse proxy. So in theory a user would hit a url like: http://reverse_proxy.yalepath.org/tc/CassetteLabeler The reverse proxy using mod_proxy, mod_proxy_balancer, mod_proxy_http would transfer it to one of the balancemembers via port 80 by the selected lbmethod. It would arrive there as: http://balancememberX.yalepath.org/CassetteLabeler The selected balance member seeing that there is a JkMount for that request would involve mod_jk and mod_jk would forward it via the ajp connector to one of the selected tomcats from the cluster. /Or that is how I imagine it :)/ Looks like the initial request is received by the reverse proxy. It selects a balance member and sends the request to it correctly, that is stripping off the /tc. Tha balancemember involves mod_jk and mod_jk forwards it to one of the clustered tomcats. Looking the debug info tomcat is doing its job and even asks for the body and receives it. Then tomcat is closing the connection to the balance member. That is where things get out of control. Then the selected balance member instead of continue with the earlier selected tomcat instance - although stickiness is specified - selects another tomcat node and sends the SAME info to it. This second tomcat does exactly as the first one did and it closes the connection. At that point the balancemember /or the reverse proxy/ sends the non-formated URL from the reverse proxy to the Apache of the second tomcat node and of course that cannot be resolved so I get a 404 error. So, I am looking why stickiness is not working, why the selected balancemember is not satisfied with the firstly selected tomcat node and just finishing the whole session with it, so the right info can flow back on the chain to the clients browser and paint the first form of the web app. Now I configured stickyness even in ProxyPass on the reverse proxy, but no cigar. ProxyRequests Off BalancerMember http://bml0039.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 BalancerMember http://bml0073.yalepath.org loadfactor=10 ProxySet lbmethod=bytraffic ProxyPass /tc/balancer://pathCluster/ stickysession=JSESSIONID ProxyPassReverse/tc/balancer://pathCluster/ #ProxyHTMLLogVerbose On SetHandler balancer-manager Order Deny,Allow Allow from .yalepath.org I would like to emphasize that when I request the web app from the individual balance members using of course port 80, like: http://balancemember1.yalepath.org/CassetteLabeler or http://balancemember2.yalepath.org/Cassettelabeler , everything is working right. The problem is somewhere as the info is flowing back in the chain to the reverse proxy.

Hi *, i'm looking for a solution to configure the application (war) which is responding on calling a url like www.mydomain.de I use Apache2 Webserver infront of tomat 6.0.18. I setup everything from the tutorial found here http://www.mogilowski.net/?p=121&lang=de-de http://www.mogilowski.net/?p=121&lang=de-de I simply replaced the words: vhost1 by mydomain www.testsrv.local by www.mydomain.de If i call the url (www.mydomain.de) i get the tomcat manager start page. Only if i call www.mydomain.de/homepage the homepage is displayed if it's deployed in the webapps folder. So my questions are the following: 1.) Where do i have to put my homepage.war file? tomcat/webapps or /var/www/mydomain or /var/www/mydomain/htdocs? 2.) Where can i specify that calls to www.mydomain.de goto homepage instead of root application?

No wonder there's tons and tons configuration. You only need one single httpd instance: the one doing the load-balancing. Configure /all/ of the TC instances that are part of the balancing setup in that one httpd. What you've done is set up load balancing across two httpd instances that then load-balance to a set of webapp servers. I can only think of a single reason to ever do that (you want lopsided load balancing) but it still doesn't make any sense. Lose the additional httpd instances and simplify your life, man.

RE: URL: /manager/html
Hi Chris, Thanks again, we don't want to use it at all, and the problem stemmed only from the fact that we have a pen test due and although the manager app wasn't actually accessible (we never changed the tomcat-users file) browsing to the url reported a tomcat standard error page that revealed the tomcat version we are using. That is something they will pick up on during the test and is something we hadnt noticed before. How would I undeploy the entire app so that browsing to the url /manager/ would not result in a standard error page? -Original Message- From: Christopher Schultz [mailto:ch...@christopherschultz.net] Sent: 25 March 2009 13:18 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: URL: /manager/html -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Paul, On 3/25/2009 9:01 AM, Ockleford Paul (NHS Connecting for Health) wrote: > When I say forward on any request that is actually probably a > misleading statement, I changed the url context for the manager web > application to point to our web app that handles any contexts from > that point on.

This indicates that Java can't contact the server. You mentioned that
the mysql command-line utility connects just fine. Can you do this and
see what happens:
C> mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p nlocalhost
and see if that connects? I don't think win32 uses anything other than
TCP/IP for communication (*NIX systems can use a named pipe on the
filesystem and ignore networking altogether) but using 127.0.0.1 as the
host (/not/ "localhost") disables that behavior in the client.

You really shouldn't do this. You should use JNDI to get the DataSource
each time you need it, rather than caching a copy of that object
somewhere (like the application scope, as you've done here).
A JNDI fetch is cheap and more robust (you can replace the DataSource at
runtime and everyone starts using it right away, instead of having to
bounce the app). Also, DataSource is not guaranteed to be threadsafe so
you never know if it will even work properly in a shared situation
(which you have here).

Right: you need to check for null ;)

Yes. Your machine can't contact MySQL. Stupid question: Is MySQL
running? (Probably, since you said the command-line works).
Also, are you running Tomcat under a security manager (i.e. with the
"-security" switch)? If so, you could have a permissions problem.

You should ignore the CLASSPATH environment variable. When you installed
Tomcat, did you use the installer, or did you just unzip it? I'm asking
because I think the Tomcat service points to a specific JRE version. If
Tomcat is doing /anything/ (which it is), your upgrade doesn't appear to
have broken anything.

I thought this was just called "running Microsoft windows". ;)

You shouldn't be setting the path attribute, though this is unlikely to be causing your problem.

This configuration will only purge abandoned connections after they've been out of the pool for 30 /minutes/. That's a long time to wait before your connections recover. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAknKI2cACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PD2XgCgoOiqvDyfelUoL+zUQuBXhm0X HbcAn2KPdmbsjMcoEsIbVJgiqqSnZFdH =qsgv -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
Re: Session lost when app. is redeployed

I use 5.5.27 and, in development where autoreload=true, I trigger auto-redeployments all the time by changing web.xml, adding libraries, or updating classes. My sessions remain in-tact without a problem (unless, of course, I change a class for an object that is actually in a live session). No logs at all, eh? What about the serialized sessions file? Under the circumstances when the sessions /are/ persisted, can you locate the serialized sessions file (while the app is stopped, that is)? Copy it to a temporary location. What about in the case where the sessions file is /not/ persisted (again, while the app is stopped and/or undeployed). Is the file still there? If not, what happens if you take the file from above and use it as a surrogate, placing it in the right place at the right time? I'm wondering if the problem is in saving the sessions or loading them. I suspect that Tomcat is not saving them when you undeploy. I'm not sure why, since Tomcat claims to do it: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/manager.html#Restart%20Persistence If you put in your web.xml, do you get any errors? - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAknKIMoACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PC0fQCgjGDckxzlxMrrA6RY7Yovaxpw sZAAoKN9qtucZn7/NlAMRJg6GJt1Be+g =Lcp/ -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Do you mean you see /your/ login page, or some other one? When you say "all requests for / are redirected", do you mean this is being done in your own webapp, or at a higher-level (Tomcat or maybe a web server out front)? > I don't see any mapping for this URL in our server.xml, so where is > this being handled? If the manager application is deployed, then you are likely to be able to access it. Tomcat deploys applications in 4 ways: 1. Any defined in server.xml 2. Any APP.war found in the webapps directory, if auto-deploy is true 3. Any APP.xml found in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/ My guess is that #3 is in play, here. You can find more information on webapp deployment in the introduction section of this page: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html Hope that helps, - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAknKHhoACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PD1WACfbbEPKwwo8eacJrXiDQ67gHig K8YAoJqC31NjYuqCopNiFJpAkRzpU4a5 =ISf+ -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Your symptoms seem to indicate otherwise. +1 Take a look at http://blog.christopherschultz.net/?p=68 then review a representative piece of your code.

I believe these messages would go into catalina.out, but you should check all logs for anything suspicious. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAknKHBgACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBukwCgn36tduJKLGMKxjE7NfKF5WhX yeEAoJrZu38yyM9BNE9DZ4fcqg1OO2V1 =rxRe -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Exact details > can be found here: This is incorrect. If you have an app located outside of the defined webapps dir and are using the docBase attribute then merely naming the context XML file "ROOT.xml" is enough. You may consider the following: a normally deployed ROOT.war causes a ROOT.xml to be created - it is this special name that locates the web application at the path "/". You may only use path="" when the context is defined in server.xml, (when a ROOT.xml would not exist) - a practice which is very strongly discouraged anyway. p > http://www.andrew-eells.com/2009/03/21/tomcat-root-war/ Tomcat ROOT.war > deployment > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
Connection errors with mod_proxy_balancer and tomcat 5.5
Hi, we encounter some strange errors with our apache (v2.2) fronting 4 tomcat (v5.5) server. We are loadbalancing with sticky sessions to our tomcats. Everything runs fine beside the fact that 0.1% of all requests get a 503 http status code. The rate raises under load, but it is at least 0.1% (way too much!!) and occurs even at the early morning hours. The request is not logged on the tomcat side (no exceptions, no access.log), only on apache access.log with 503 and error log as stated below. 1. This is from our apache log file: [Wed Mar 25 07:08:44 2009] [error] [client 74.6.22.94] (70014)End of file found: proxy: error reading status line from remote server tc1 [Wed Mar 25 07:08:44 2009] [error] [client 74.6.22.94] proxy: Error reading from remote server returned by /site.html 2. This is from our apache config (prefork engine) KeepAlive Off ServerLimit 650 ListenBackLog 50 StartServers 50 MinSpareServers 100 MaxSpareServers 200 MaxClients300 MaxRequestsPerChild 1 ProxyRequests Off BalancerMember http://tc1:80 max=100 route=tc1 BalancerMember http://tc2:80 max=100 route=tc2 BalancerMember http://tc3:80 max=100 route=tc3 BalancerMember http://tc4:80 max=100 route=tc4 Order Deny,Allow Allow from all ProxyPass / balancer://tomcatcluster/ stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid ProxyPassReverse / http://tc1/ ProxyPassReverse / http://tc2/ ProxyPassReverse / http://tc3/ ProxyPassReverse / http://tc4/ ProxyPreserveHost On 3. This is our connector from our tomcat configuration I tried to investigate this problem but wasn't even able to reproduce it on my test engine. Googling it, i found some other people having this problem but no solution. As far as i understand from my investigations "BalancerMember http://tc1:80 max=100" does not make sense on "prefork". max should be 1 with prefork model. But i think this is not the reason. if max=100 is not effective, there "could" be situations where MaxClients of 300 all go to one tomcat because of session affinity. But this is rather theoretical. Maybe i can't use keepalive on the tomcat side. But it seems to work. But honestly: i am clueless. Do you have any hints why i do encounter these connection errors? Or does anybody has a running configuration with apache2.2, mod_proxy_balancer and tomcat 5.5. where these problems does not occur? kind regards Janning - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
URL: /manager/html
Hi, We have tomcat 5.5.17 installed, and all requests for "/" are forwarded to a login page that we maintain, so it was assumed that the manager application was not accessible, however if I put https://webapp:8443/manager/html a login prompt pops up. I dont see any mapping for this url in our server.xml, so where is this being handled? Can anyone explain? Thanks, Paul ** This message may contain confidential and privileged information.
