Installing Tomcat-5.5.25 in Solaris 10 (SPARC-64 bit)
Dear all, I have installed tomcat-5.5.25 in Solaris10 on Sun SPARC 64-bit platform after installing 64-bit JRE. I am able to start the tomcat using the startup.sh script. But when I tried to execute the JSP-Exmples , I am getting Servlet Exception like the following: ( I have executed the basic-arithmetic example ) HTTP Status 500 - -- *type* Exception report *message* *description* *The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.* *exception* javax.servlet.ServletException: Wrapper cannot find servlet class org.apache.jsp.jsp2.el.basic_002darithmetic_jsp or a class it depends on org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase.invoke(AuthenticatorBase.java:433) org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:117) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:151) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:874) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.processConnection(Http11BaseProtocol.java:665) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.processSocket(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:528) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.runIt(LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.java:81) org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:689) java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) *root cause* java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.jsp.jsp2.el.basic_002darithmetic_jsp org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1362) org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1208) org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase.invoke(AuthenticatorBase.java:433) org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:117) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:151) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:874) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.processConnection(Http11BaseProtocol.java:665) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.processSocket(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:528) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.runIt(LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.java:81) org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:689) java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595) Please let me know that is there restriction to run Servlet in this platform ( SPARC 64-bit with Solaris 10 ) .

[snip] But, if somewhere along the line, a piece of code was receiving the encoded URI http://.../test%5Bbrackets%5D.jsp;, and decided to re-encode it again using the % hex hex method, then you would get this URI : http://.../test%255Bbrackets%255D.jsp; (where %25 is the encoded version of %). Then the next step would decode this URI back into http://.../test%5Bbrackets%5D.jsp;, and that is what the server would try to access, what would be logged, and also what you seem to experience. So, which is the culprit which re-encodes something it should not ? And is there not some parameter somewhere which forces it to do so ? Thanks for your excellent answer. I have fixed the problem now. There is a setting for the isapi_redirecor called uri_select. This parameter controls the URI's which are passed to Tomcat from IIS. It defaults to value proxy, which leads to some re-encoding. I have changed the parameter's value to unparsed now, which has solved the problem. For those who want to know more, the parameter is explained here: http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/iis.html Jesse. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So it seems that Tomcat is behaving differently in each case. It's not Tomcat - it's Microsoft's less than brilliant interpretation of the HTTP RFC, coupled with IE's erratic implementation. You need to get rid of the no-cache headers; this should let IE open the file in situ. I agree 100% with the above. The erratic behaviour of IE across versions, subversions, patches, etc.. with respect to the Content-Type and Content-disposition HTTP headers is the subject of uncountable articles in newgroups and pages on the web, and cost uncountable hours of work to developers. In other words, it's broken and it's a mess. (search Google for : IE +Content-type to get an idea) Even on 2 PCs with exactly the same version of IE, the behaviour will sometimes be different depending on the other programs installed on that PC. I know this will sound as hocus-pocus, but please try it : If you have any of the Acrobat programs installed on that PC, and if it is possible without major work, then - de-install the Acrobat program - reboot your PC - re-install the same Acrobat program and try again. The chances are good that the behaviour of IE will change.

Re: Tomcat, Radware AppDirector,IE6 Blank Page
The strange thing about is when the web app was accessed directly there seemed to be no problem at all. Yet when accessed though the load balancer, intermittently the problem occurred. The IE itself didn't hang because I can close it normally, but it seemed like it waited for something that never came.

Upon direct access to the tomcat server, hence bypassing the load balancer, using IE6, no blank page ever occured. And using Firefox was fine too. Can somebody explain what happened and give me some clue to resolve this issue. Hi. I know not much about load balancing, Radware or clustered Tomcats. But I can tell you that over the years, I have encountered numerous cases of inconsistent behaviours of IE, varying between versions, sub-versions and patches, and even between different workstations having the exact same version of IE, but having different other software packages installed. For instance, there are cases where, for no very apparent or documented reason, IE will issue a HEAD request for a URL, prior to issuing a GET or POST to that same URL. Presumably (but that is pure speculation on my part) that is to find out in advance what kind of response it is likely to get afterward. Maybe that can explain what you're seeing ?

Thank you. But the other two references, if you are perseverating over them, are in my view not good references worth perseverating over. The article at http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/Tomcat/UTF-8 is incorrect. The second part (Alternative) has been recently corrected for the better, but the very premise of the article is wrong and misleading. It has been recently shown in a thread in this same forum that one does not normally need a filter, and I would submit that using a filter as indicated will corrupt data in some instances. In the article at http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding there is also a problem in the form shown under the title How can I test if my configuration will work correctly? As demonstrated by a recent thread here also, the form tag as shown, is missing a enctype=multipart/form-data attribute. This will cause Tomcat to misinterpret the form data in some cases. One could also argue that adding an attribute accept-charset=UTF-8 would make it even more failsafe. In addition, the article also repeats a mistake often seen, which is to tell people that it's ok to send form data via a GET and use non US-ASCII data. This is a receipe for problems, see the first mentioned article at java.sun.com. That article explains the basic reason why it is a problem : although there exist (more or less) rules as to how to encode non-ASCII data in URLs, the problem is that when it receives such a request, the server has basically no idea how the URL was actually encoded, so it can only guess at how to decode it properly. This is also explicitly discouraged in the HTML 4.01 RFC at (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#submit-format 17.13.4 Form content types ) Now, I know that these are Wiki articles and can be corrected by anyone, but isn't that a problem ? For better or worse, these articles are used as reference by Tomcat users. See your own response above. If someone goes ahead and posts incorrect technical stuff there, there is a problem, no ? I mean that I, as a mere user, don't feel at ease going ahead and modifying the Wiki article of someone else unilaterally, nor of posting another one saying the previous one is all wrong. But maybe there should be some form of authoritative control of the accuracy of what is posted there ?

Couple of things, I'm in Australia so that is why I don't get back to you straight away. Also, I hope I'm replying properly and that this message get put in the correct location in the thread list. To deploy I: Stopped tomcat added the war file to my wars directory edited the context fragment file (in conf/Catalina/localhost/mycontext.xml to point the docBase attribute to the correct war file) started tomcat I am wondering if maybe I didn't 'undeploy' the app in the Tomcat manager (or another manager app called probe). I'm unclear as to whether I need to explicitly 'undeploy' to clear out the works directory etc. So, as Johnny Kewl said, there is legacy code being used from the old version. So do i need to 'undeploy' to clear out the work directory and any other directories that tomcat uses to run the app or does restarting tomcat do this automatically. Having said that, the solution I used was to stop and start tomcat, which apparently cleared out the cache, so why didn't it do this when i restarted tomcat after deployment. And it doesn't seem to answer the problem of when I changed the database directly and it didn't show up in the app. Here it seemed to cache the data rather than the application code (which resetting the browser or using a different browser or using a different machine that has never run the application before didn't fix). I'd like to explain how we deploy a bit clearer as I think I rushed it a bit earlier. We have two business sites that have two separate databases (running on the same database instance but that is irrelevant). For convenience, we wanted to have a single war file for the web app that all sites shared. So we do the following (and I lied earlier we use /var not /opt): We have a dir called /var/tomcat/wars in which we store the single war file We have a dir called /var/tomcat/instances which contains directories for each site ie /var/tomcat/instances/site_a /var/tomcat/instances/site_b in each of these directories we have the tomcat directories conf, webapps, work etc. The tomcat binary is in /opt/tomcat (and yes i do mean /opt this time) We have a context fragment file for each site which is /var/tomcat/instances/site_a/conf/Catalina/www.site_a.com.au/myContext.xml which contains Context docBase=/var/tomcat/wars/site_a-version1.war reloadable=false swallowOutput=true The server.xml file has a Host element that reads: Host name=www.site_a.com.au appBase=webapps unpackWARs=false autoDeploy=false xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false There is no Context element Running version.sh returns:Using CATALINA_BASE: /opt/tomcatUsing CATALINA_HOME: /opt/tomcatUsing CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/tomcat/temp To deploy I: * Stop tomcat using launchctl (MacOSX's services controller, like init.d in Linux) * copy the war file into the wars directory (with a different name to the old app) *Edit the context fragment file so that docBase points to the new war file * restart tomcat using launchctl Regards, = Steven Ah... I see what you doing... this is what is wrong Do not change the name of the WEB APP of the WAR The way TC relates context and path is thru the actual name of the file. This is so that normal humans can easily change the context just by changing the file name... So make the context file in TC look something like this ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? Context docBase=D:/DEV/Ext/test/WebApplication2.war path=/WebApplication2/ The path is the context you want it to run on ie domain/WebApplication2 Make them the SAME... Then do this... in HOST autoDeploy=true Then just drop the new wars over the old one and it will redeploy automatically. Notes... You are not sharing files like this, ie when it deploys, each TC is getting its own unpacked version in webapps... have a look. So you see what happens and its what you calling CACHING... is that when you change the name... TC looks for that context. Cant find it, BUT does find the old already unpacked one in webapps... and just runs that. It cant connect that the new WAR name, ie context must be the same as war file name. Context docBase=D:/DEV/Ext/test/WebApplication2.war path=/WebApplication2/ is the full way, so you can see if you can try match a context to a different war name, but I dont think TC will figure it out. If you want to mismatch war and context... you can but then you must undeploy from /manager/html and you must run this to redeploy http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy?config=file://path/to/context.xmlpath=/NewContext Too much pain... Then one last thing... becareful if you develop against one of these TC's... as soon as you do that, the IDE will steal the context away. And

My understanding is that TC uses the work dir as its work area when running a war file in unpacked form. i am wondering if a TC restart tells TC that the context file has changed, but only changes the files in work that have changed, and leaves the others alone. On the other hand, an undeploy and redeploy does clean out ALL the files. A reload will not clean out the work dir but providing the timestamps on your files are correct (ie newer files have later timestamps and nothing has a timestamp in the future) then that shouldn't be a problem.

It has been recently shown in a thread in this same forum that one does not normally need a filter, and I would submit that using a filter as indicated will corrupt data in some instances. The first solution is horrible as a standard approach but is a useful example of how you might recover mangled UTF-8 text. You could also add that a filter should be unnecessary but that many developers prefer it as it 'fixes' all pages with a few lines of code rather than having to fix every single page. In the article at http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding there is also a problem in the form shown under the title How can I test if my configuration will work correctly? As demonstrated by a recent thread here also, the form tag as shown, is missing a enctype=multipart/form-data attribute. Agreed. Feel free to fix it. This will cause Tomcat to misinterpret the form data in some cases. One could also argue that adding an attribute accept-charset=UTF-8 would make it even more failsafe. Wouldn't do any harm. In addition, the article also repeats a mistake often seen,s which is to tell people that it's ok to send form data via a GET and use non US-ASCII data. This is a receipe for problems, see the first mentioned article at java.sun.com. There you get into a grey area in the various specs. Probably the best solution is a comment that says POST is easier to control than GET but if you are stuck with GET for whatever reason then... Now, I know that these are Wiki articles and can be corrected by anyone, but isn't that a problem ? For better or worse, these articles are used as reference by Tomcat users. See your own response above. If someone goes ahead and posts incorrect technical stuff there, there is a problem, no ? I mean that I, as a mere user, don't feel at ease going ahead and modifying the Wiki article of someone else unilaterally, nor of posting another one saying the previous one is all wrong. But maybe there should be some form of authoritative control of the accuracy of what is posted there ? This is a community of which we are all members. We are all equally responsible for keeping the Wiki relevant and accurate. Any and every member of this community has an equal right to go and edit any Wiki article. There was a long time when Wiki changes were not posted to the dev list so no review took place. That has been fixed and all changes now get copied to the dev list where they will be reviewed. Gross inaccuracies are likely to be corrected quickly. And yes, I could have made all the changes above myself rather than write this but I really would like to see a few more people on this list take the plunge and start updating the Wiki, particularly the FAQ.

ISAPI/JK redirector question
All, Is there a way to map an application to a back-end load-balanced/clustered tomcat farm from an IIS webserver such that an application deployed on the default host (i.e. deployed to the default webapps folder) can be addressed as a FQDN from the browser. For example: Application deployed at: http://tomcat00:8080/foo Can be reached by the end user at: http://www.myfancyname.com (Note that there is no foo on the end of that and the client has explicitly requested that this not show up.) I know that I can create a virtual host on Tomcat and deploy my app as ROOT, but then deployment and application management becomes somewhat painful. I'd like to be able to manage all my apps with a single lambda probe or Tomcat manager installation. Thanks!

[Logging] Tutorial Contribution
Hi,
Initially I was going to add to the WIKI FAQ, but all the Logging questions are so inter
related that I decided to write a tutorial instead. I have not Tested this
so there may be some inaccuracies. I'd appreciate feedback and will update the tutorial.
As soon as the dust settles I'll post the end result on the WIKI. Note that there's
also a couple of FAQs added at the end.
Here's the tutorial:
This document is provided as is, without warranty of any kind,
express or implied, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose and noninfringement.
In no event shall the author be liable for any claim,
damages or other liability, whether in an action of contract,
tort or otherwise, arising from, out of or in connection with
this document or the use or other dealings in this document.
PRIMER ON java.util.logging and JULI
The goal of this primer is to demonstrate how to to log with
java.util.logging (JULI) as a backdrop to the rest of the tutorial, in particular
the sections related to configuring Tomcat logging with the configuration file.
One may think it's wise to skip this section and proceed directly to the section
on the configuration file, but all the concepts talked about here and necessary
to understand the configuration file. The examples used in this section
show programmatically how logging is configured. The section on Tomcat's
configuration
file discusses how to accomplish declaratively what is done programmatically in
this section.
The following concepts (Classes) are important:
- LogManager
- Loggers
- Handlers
- Levels
- Root Logger
- Root Handler
The official Tomcat logging documentation refers to
these above concepts / classes extenstively.
Lets start with Loggers.
What's the purpose of a Logger? A Logger is what a developer uses to write a log statements
to the console, to a file, to the network, etc. If you wanted to log something from
your web application's class CriticalComponent using java.util.logging you would
first create a logger like this:
private String nameOfLogger = 'com.example.myapp.CriticalComponent';
or
private String nameOfLogger = CriticalComponent.class.getName();
private static Logger myLogger = Logger.getLogger(nameOfLogger);
Pay attention to how we defined the name of the Logger. This is important
to the material explaining Tomcat's logging configuration. You may also
want to think about why the myLogger is a static field (Hint myLogger is shared
among all instances of CriticalComponent).
Now you have a logger to create logging messages from you class
CriticalComponent.
For example you could now try something like this:
public void wasssup()
{
myLogger.info(Ah Yeah Baby - that's the end of System.out.println);
}
If you ran this code with a deployed web application you would see this
statement
on the console or in catalina.out out like:
INFO; 322125105255ms; 4407662;# 1; com.example.myapp.CriticalComponent;
wasssup; Ah Yeah Baby - that's the end of System.out.println
Notice that both the name of the Logger and the method that logged the message are
mentioned in the log statement. This is important to know when you want to alter
the configuration of the Logger. For example you might want to turn this logger off,
because it's not that useful.
What if you wanted the output to appear in a file and on the console? For that you need to
define a 2 Handlers. Create the two like this:
Handler fileHandler = new FileHandler(/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log);
Handler consoleHandler = new ConsoleHandler();
myLogger.addHandler(fileHandler);
myLogger.addHandler(consoleHandler);
Now myLogger will log to both the console and the file
/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log.
So now we understand Loggers and Handlers, but we have not touched on Levels,
Root Loggers, and Root Handlers yet. What are those?
Lets start with a root Logger. A root logger is a logger whose name is .
What's the purpose of it. Suppose you tried to do some logging with
myLogger like this:
myLogger.finest(So Fine);
And nothing shows up in your log, but you know that this statement is being
called. What's going on? The answer is that the JULI root logger's Level
is set to INFO by default (TRUE?). The level INFO has a corresponding integer
assigned to it, which is 3 (TRUE? - Comment: In any case I'm just using it as
an example
which fits with the rest of the tutorial...so the logic works out regardless).
When myLogger attempts to log it first checks it's level. If myLogger's level is greater
than the level intrinsic to the method doing the
logging (finest), then the record will be logged. In this case the logging method finest
corresponds to Level zero. Zero is less than 3, hence the logger does not log the message.
My logger will only log messages with a level that is greater than or equal to 3. So for
instance if myLogger.severe(Oohhh [EMAIL PROTECTED]) is called, it will get logged

RE: [Logging] Tutorial Contribution
That helps! A few suggestions for the tomcat deployment:
- make using log4j easier (either offer a binary version of
tomcat-juli.jar that uses log4j - no source required since I can't build
locally due to some dbcp error; alternatively it could use
common-logging's autodetect, if log4j is available on the path, use
it...)
- adapt the main log4j formatter (I'll see if I can do that, I'll submit
it here if it works)
Thanks for the tutorial, Ole!

Subject: [Logging] Tutorial Contribution
Hi,
Initially I was going to add to the WIKI FAQ, but all the Logging
questions are so inter related that I decided to write a tutorial
instead. I have not Tested this so there may be some inaccuracies.
I'd appreciate feedback and will update the tutorial. As soon as the
dust settles I'll post the end result on the WIKI. Note that there's
also a couple of FAQs added at the end.
Here's the tutorial:

dealings in this document.
PRIMER ON java.util.logging and JULI
The goal of this primer is to demonstrate how to to log with
java.util.logging (JULI) as a backdrop to the rest of the tutorial, in
particular the sections related to configuring Tomcat logging with the
configuration file.
One may think it's wise to skip this section and proceed directly to the
section on the configuration file, but all the concepts talked about
here and necessary to understand the configuration file. The examples
used in this section show programmatically how logging is configured.
The section on Tomcat's configuration file discusses how to accomplish
declaratively what is done programmatically in this section.
The following concepts (Classes) are important:
- LogManager
- Loggers
- Handlers
- Levels
- Root Logger
- Root Handler
The official Tomcat logging documentation refers to these above concepts
/ classes extenstively.
Lets start with Loggers.
What's the purpose of a Logger? A Logger is what a developer uses to
write a log statements to the console, to a file, to the network, etc.
If you wanted to log something from your web application's class
CriticalComponent using java.util.logging you would first create a
logger like this:
private String nameOfLogger = 'com.example.myapp.CriticalComponent';
or
private String nameOfLogger = CriticalComponent.class.getName();
private static Logger myLogger = Logger.getLogger(nameOfLogger);
Pay attention to how we defined the name of the Logger. This is
important to the material explaining Tomcat's logging configuration.
You may also want to think about why the myLogger is a static field
(Hint myLogger is shared among all instances of CriticalComponent).
Now you have a logger to create logging messages from you class
CriticalComponent.
For example you could now try something like this:
public void wasssup()
{
myLogger.info(Ah Yeah Baby - that's the end of System.out.println);
}
If you ran this code with a deployed web application you would see this
statement on the console or in catalina.out out like:
INFO; 322125105255ms; 4407662;# 1; com.example.myapp.CriticalComponent;
wasssup; Ah Yeah Baby - that's the end of System.out.println
Notice that both the name of the Logger and the method that logged the
message are mentioned in the log statement. This is important to know
when you want to alter the configuration of the Logger. For example you
might want to turn this logger off, because it's not that useful.
What if you wanted the output to appear in a file and on the console?
For that you need to define a 2 Handlers. Create the two like this:
Handler fileHandler = new FileHandler(/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log);
Handler consoleHandler = new ConsoleHandler();
myLogger.addHandler(fileHandler); myLogger.addHandler(consoleHandler);
Now myLogger will log to both the console and the file
/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log.
So now we understand Loggers and Handlers, but we have not touched on
Levels, Root Loggers, and Root Handlers yet. What are those?
Lets start with a root Logger. A root logger is a logger whose name is
.
What's the purpose of it. Suppose you tried to do some logging with
myLogger like this:
myLogger.finest(So Fine);
And nothing shows up in your log, but you know that this statement is
being called. What's going on? The answer is that the JULI root
logger's Level is set to INFO by default (TRUE?). The level INFO has a
corresponding integer assigned to it, which is 3 (TRUE? - Comment: In

tomcat mod_proxy_ajp and root path
Hi, We setup an Apache Tomcat servlet and JSP engine using mod_proxy ajp as connector to host a JAVA application. Here is the httpd.conf entry: ProxyRequests Off ProxyVia Off ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass /servlet/ ajp://www.domain.com:8009/ ProxyPassReverseCookiePath / /servlet ProxyPassReverse /servlet ajp://www.domain.com:8009/ This is the server.xml entry: Host name=domain.com debug=0 appBase=/var/www/virtual/ domain.com/htdocs/servlet unpackWARs=false autoDeploy=true xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger directory=/usr/share/tomcat-5.5.26/logs prefix=domain.com suffix=.log timestamp=true / Aliaswww.domain.com/Alias /Host We have an URL issue when the application redirect to the root path. Here it is what happens f.e.: The application shows a login page at the address http://www.domain.com/servlet/fp2008/ . When we try to logging in and click submit, the server redirect us to http://www.domain.com/fp2008/ with 404 ERROR. (correct URL should be http://www.domain.com/*servlet*/fp2008/ ) This happens for every dynamic link created by the application when a user perform an action. Any suggestion will be appreciate.

Example: -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/etc/tomcat/logging.properties Note that this property is not set when running catalina.sh. The reason for this is that the download provided by the Apache Tomcat project knows where the file is already. Not true - the script does set the property if the conf/logging.properties file exists. See lines 182-185 of the 6.0.16 catalina.sh script. It also set java.util.logging.manager to point to the JULI LogManager implementation.

Re: Tomcat and JDeveloper - installing ADF runtime
Hi Jan, do you know how is ADF licensed? It is free only if you are going to use with Oracle Application server. It used to be part of JDeveloper and deployment was free of charge.

Thanks for pointing these out. Unix syslog sounds killer - but I need to play more.

Re: ISAPI/JK redirector question
Hi Brantley, Brantley Hobbs schrieb: All, Is there a way to map an application to a back-end load-balanced/clustered tomcat farm from an IIS webserver such that an application deployed on the default host (i.e. deployed to the default webapps folder) can be addressed as a FQDN from the browser. For example: Application deployed at: http://tomcat00:8080/foo Can be reached by the end user at: http://www.myfancyname.com (Note that there is no foo on the end of that and the client has explicitly requested that this not show up.) I know that I can create a virtual host on Tomcat and deploy my app as ROOT, but then deployment and application management becomes somewhat painful. I'd like to be able to manage all my apps with a single lambda probe or Tomcat manager installation. The server name is not the problem. Tomcat will look for all webapps in the default host, if there is not match for the host name. The /foo stripping is not trivial: the isapi redirector can rewrite request URLs, so it is able to add a /foo at the beginning of the URL. But if your webapp does any of the following things, this will not be enough: - including absolute links to itself in the response bodies. If the user clicks on those links, the browser will show the foo-URL (and try to reach it). - sending redirects to itself (redirects officially must use full URLs). - sending a cookie with path /foo. The browser will not send this cookie back with the next request, because it doesn't start with /foo. I don't know, if IIS can manipulate such things in responses. The isapi plugin itself can not. If you would use httpd, it is able to rewrite cookie pathes and redirect URLs, and with the freely available module mod_proxy_html, you can also rewrite URLs in the response body (eating some performance and only working nicely, if thoese URLs are verbose part of the HTML source and do not get created dynamically via Javascript etc.). These tools should generally better get combined with mod_proxy.

Can you telnet from the httpd machine to the app server over port 8007 (or 8009, depending on the server)? He should definitely try that. But I find strange, that errno is 13, which is EACCESS. The failing call should be connect() inside apr_socket_connect(). man pages on my Linux/Unix systems consistently tell me for connect(): EACCES Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix; or write access to the named socket is denied.

Re: Rebuilding Tomcat from sources

Hello,
I can't do the 'ant download' because our proxy disables some
stations as ours so i have dowloaded (from 'another server') :
apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src from tomcat site, it's OK. Now, i just do
from my tomcat src: ant and I still have the message:
/exec/products/jlz/sources/apache-tomcat-6.0.14-src/build.xml:457:
Warning: Could not find file
/usr/share/java/tomcat-native-1.1.10/tomcat-native.tar.gz to copy.
I tried to download tomcat-native-1.1.10.tar.gz and I could only get
tomcat-native-1.1.10-src.tar.gz -- so, i have build it and it just
created :
${tomcat-native-src}/jni/native/.libs/libtcnative-1.so.0.1.10 I do
not understand
Where can I download tomcat-native.tar.gz (http transfer from
'another server') ?
The file tomcat-native.tar.gz is identical to
tomcat-native-1.1.NN-src.tar.gz, where NN depends on the Tomcat version.
In your case NN=10. Simply rename the .tar.gz. The most recent is NN=13,
in a few days NN=14.
The build will not build tcnative. Normal (non-Windows) Tomcat
distributables simply bundle the tar.gz as a file in case the user wants
to build the native connector on his platform.
For running Tomcat without the native connector, you would never
actually use this file, (although the ant build mandatory wants to
bundle it in the Tomcat tarfile).

Rainer

I don't know where to find the tomcat-native.tar.gz
Did you do the ant download step as documented here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/building.html#Building%20Tomcat
Note CLASSPATH=
$ECLIPSE_HOME\plugins\org.eclipse.jdt.core_3.3.1.v_780_R33x.jar
You probably want to get rid of that - CLASSPATH should really
never be used these days.

So the type of installed tomcat-juli.jar decides, if you are using java.util.logging or Log4j. By default the j.u.l based one is bundled to keep dependencies low, but you can find the Log4j bindings at: http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.16/bin/extras/ (and in a similar directory on all mirrors).
