questions about tomcat 7 executor with rest services

2015-10-12 Thread Brian Millett
I’m looking for some insight / info into using executor thread pool for a 
tomcat 7 server that handles many REST services.   
Wondering if a large maxThreads in an Executor would have better through put 
than the same maxThreads for a normal connector?

What scenario would encourage the use of an Executor over a normal connector? 

Thanks.

Re: integrating Apache 2 server and Tomcat

 Hello,
 
 I have been struggling for the past couple of weeks to redirect
 external traffic from the Apache 2 server to Tomcat 5.5 on a godaddy
 dedicated server.
 
 We have created a new domain on the server, which default public path
 is /home/myadmin/public_html/ when someone points there browser to
 www.mydomain.com
 
 At the same time I have uploaded and deployed the application under
 usr/java/tomcat-5.5/webapps/mydomain/
 
 As I understand at this time web content is served by the apache
 server and not Tomcat. What I have been trying to do is to have all
 pages static and dynamic be served by Tomcat.
 
 Godaddy offers limited support unless we buy into their assisted
 service plan. I followed some steps they initially suggested which
 involved creating a symbolic link between the default public directory
 /home/myadmin/public_html/ and the application directory
 usr/java/tomcat-5.5/webapps/mydomain/ by using the command:
 
 ln -s /usr/java/tomcat-5.5/webapps/mydomain/index.html
 /home/myadmin/public_html
 
 With this I hoped all requests from www.mydomain.com going to
 /home/myadmin/public_html would be automatically redirected to the
 actual tomcat content starting with the deployed application's
 index.html page. But unfortunately this does not work. I am always
 returned the 404 error message.
 
 Is there a known or recommended way to resolve this issue? After some
 searching I believe there are workarounds involving editing the
 /usr/java/tomcat-5.5/conf/server.xml and the etc/httpd/conf/http.conf
 files. Would it be possible someone to provide some general steps how
 to do this?
 
 Many thanks for any practical help.

I use mod_proxy_http with tomcat configured for just a http connector.

service tomcat
{

port= 80
redirect= localhost 8180

it works great on that machine if I point my browser but remotely I get zilch.  
I've tried plugging in my ip address instead of localhost: zilch.  Could anyone 
point me in the right  direction?

You can also use the java service launcher that is located in the bin directory 
of the distribution.  You need to compile it and install it.  What it does is 
launch tomcat on port 80 as root, but changes the owner to be something else, 
like 'tomcat'.  That way, you can run it on port 80, but not as root.


A way of launching it from say /etc/init.d is with a script like the following:

I'd also recommend that you compile the apr native libs for tomcat
(apache-tomcat-6.0.14/bin/tomcat-native.tar.gz) and enable it when you start
tomcat by adding -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/apr/lib (I installed the lib
in /usr/local/apr/lib).

What gives you is the apr interface for handling the http connects.

from the catalina.out:

Nov 26, 2007 9:31:10 AM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol init
INFO: Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080

This handler scales and is quicker than the java handler.  JBoss calls it
JBossWeb.  See http://labs.jboss.com/jbossweb/index.html for a nice graph of the
performance differences between the native apr  java handlers.

questions about the classloader in tomcat 6

2007-05-21 Thread Brian Millett
Hello, I've setup my tomcat 6.0.13 with the CATALINA_HOME=/opt/tomcat and
CATALINA_BASE=/opt/webBaseDir on a FC6 system.

I read in http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html
Common - This class loader contains additional classes that are made visible to
both Tomcat internal classes and to all web applications. Normally, application
classes should NOT  be placed here. All unpacked classes and resources in
$CATALINA_HOME/lib, as well as classes and resources in JAR files are made
visible through this class loader.

and in http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/loader.html
The description below uses the variable name $CATALINA_HOME to refer to the
directory into which you have installed Tomcat 6, and is the base directory
against which most relative paths are resolved. However, if you have configured
Tomcat 6 for multiple instances by setting a CATALINA_BASE directory, you should
use $CATALINA_BASE instead of $CATALINA_HOME for each of these references.

and in conf/catalina.properties
# List of comma-separated paths defining the contents of the common
# classloader. Prefixes should be used to define what is the repository type.
# Path may be relative to the CATALINA_HOME or CATALINA_BASE path or absolute.
# If left as blank,the JVM system loader will be used as Catalina's common
# loader.
# Examples:
# foo: Add this folder as a class repository
# foo/*.jar: Add all the JARs of the specified folder as class
#  repositories
# foo/bar.jar: Add bar.jar as a class repository
common.loader=${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar

and also in org/apache/catalina/startup/Bootstrap.java
while ((i=repository.indexOf(CATALINA_HOME_TOKEN))=0) {
replace=true;
if (i0) {
repository = repository.substring(0,i) + getCatalinaHome()
+ repository.substring(i+CATALINA_HOME_TOKEN.length());
} else {
repository = getCatalinaHome()
+ repository.substring(CATALINA_HOME_TOKEN.length());
}
}
while ((i=repository.indexOf(CATALINA_BASE_TOKEN))=0) {
replace=true;
if (i0) {
repository = repository.substring(0,i) + getCatalinaBase()
+ repository.substring(i+CATALINA_BASE_TOKEN.length());
} else {
repository = getCatalinaBase()
+ repository.substring(CATALINA_BASE_TOKEN.length());
}
}

And finally in the RUNNING.txt file
In many circumstances, it is desirable to have a single copy of a Tomcat
binary distribution shared among multiple users on the same server.  To make
this possible, you can pass a -Dcatalina.base=$CATALINA_BASE argument when
executing the startup command (see (2)). In this
-Dcatalina.base=$CATALINA_BASE argument, replace $CATALINA_BASE with the
directory that contains the files for your 'personal' Tomcat instance.


The behavior I've seen is that on startup, the jar files in CATALINA_HOME/lib
are loaded before CATALINA_BASE/lib.  Is that correct?

I've seen that I must have the distributed jar files in CATALINA_HOME/lib, but
for my personal tomcat, I have to put the jar files in CATALINA_BASE/lib.

Are the documentation pages for all of the class loading inconsistant?

Do I need to add to the catalina.properties file
common.loader=${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar
?

What is the correct place for the Common jars to get loaded with a multiple
tomcat instances?

I'm a little confused.

Thanks.

 visible through this class loader.

 and in http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/loader.html
 The description below uses the variable name $CATALINA_HOME to refer
 to the
 directory into which you have installed Tomcat 6, and is the base
 directory
 against which most relative paths are resolved. However, if you have
 configured
 Tomcat 6 for multiple instances by setting a CATALINA_BASE directory,
 you should
 use $CATALINA_BASE instead of $CATALINA_HOME for each of these
 references.

 and in conf/catalina.properties
 # List of comma-separated paths defining the contents of the common
 # classloader. Prefixes should be used to define what is the
 repository type.
 # Path may be relative to the CATALINA_HOME or CATALINA_BASE path or
 absolute.
 # If left as blank,the JVM system loader will be used as Catalina's
 common
 # loader.
 # Examples:
 # foo: Add this folder as a class repository
 # foo/*.jar: Add all the JARs of the specified folder as class
 #  repositories
 # foo/bar.jar: Add bar.jar as a class repository
 common.loader=${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar

 and also in org/apache/catalina/startup/Bootstrap.java
 while ((i=repository.indexOf(CATALINA_HOME_TOKEN))=0) {
 replace=true;
 if (i0) {
 repository = repository.substring(0,i) +
 getCatalinaHome()
 +
 repository.substring(i+CATALINA_HOME_TOKEN.length());
 } else {
 repository = getCatalinaHome()
 +
 repository.substring(CATALINA_HOME_TOKEN.length());
 }
 }
 while ((i=repository.indexOf(CATALINA_BASE_TOKEN))=0) {
 replace=true;
 if (i0) {
 repository = repository.substring(0,i) +
 getCatalinaBase()
 +
 repository.substring(i+CATALINA_BASE_TOKEN.length());
 } else {
 repository = getCatalinaBase()
 +
 repository.substring(CATALINA_BASE_TOKEN.length());
 }
 }

 And finally in the RUNNING.txt file
 In many circumstances, it is desirable to have a single copy of a Tomcat
 binary distribution shared among multiple users on the same server. 
 To make
 this possible, you can pass a -Dcatalina.base=$CATALINA_BASE
 argument when
 executing the startup command (see (2)). In this
 -Dcatalina.base=$CATALINA_BASE argument, replace $CATALINA_BASE with
 the
 directory that contains the files for your 'personal' Tomcat instance.


 The behavior I've seen is that on startup, the jar files in
 CATALINA_HOME/lib
 are loaded before CATALINA_BASE/lib.  Is that correct?

 I've seen that I must have the distributed jar files in
 CATALINA_HOME/lib, but
 for my personal tomcat, I have to put the jar files in
 CATALINA_BASE/lib.

 Are the documentation pages for all of the class loading inconsistant?

 Do I need to add to the catalina.properties file
 common.loader=${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar

 ?

 What is the correct place for the Common jars to get loaded with a
 multiple
 tomcat instances?

 I'm a little confused.

 Thanks.

 Doesn't that defeat the CATALINA_BASE setup for multiple instances of
 tomcat?
   
 I always get the BASE and HOME mixed up. but I believe HOME is the
 installation of all the shared binaries,
 hence all common libraries would be placed there
 CATALINA_BASE is used for all runtime directories, such as webapps,
 work, conf etc

Re: questions about the classloader in tomcat 6

2007-05-21 Thread Brian Millett
Rainer Jung escribío:
 The catalina.properties file is the one that defines the classloader
 search order. So you are free to make the order fit your own needs.
 
 For instance if you really like to share product installations and want
 to add instance specific things to the common loader, you would add a
 folder of your choice or a *.jar pattern inside CATALINA_BASE to the
 common.loader in catalina.properties.
 
 If there is a conflict between the home and the base classes, the order
 in the common.loader string will decide which gets loaded (first comes
 first).
 
 By the way: all class loaders used in former Tomcat releases are still
 present in TC 6 and there functionality is the same. Because this class
 loader hierarchy confused a lot of users, we decided to switch to a
 simple default distribution layout by moving everything into the common
 classloader. In catalina.properties you can see, that all loaders
 (common, server, shared) are still there and configurable, but only
 common has classes in its search path.


Thanks.  I saw that in catalina.properties.  If I fill those values in (for the
appropriate classloader) I can duplicate the behavior of the older systems.
That will help in migrating large installations that are running tomcat 5 to
tomcat 6.

Is there a need to move to the newer common classloader?  I guess my question
is if the older ways will be deprecated in the future?

Thanks.
