Re: [Resin-interest] Compelling reasons to use Resin?

Re: [Resin-interest] How To View Servlets w. Resin
You need to have the servlet mapped in web.xml. And generally servlets belong in WEB-INF/classes. If this is confusing, check out some tutorials on java web applications. yong On Sep 24, 2007, at 2:31 PM, Steve Burrus wrote: Hi all. I have been encountering some difficulty in trying to see a servlet in my web browser with Resin for a long time now! I think that it is a matter of the proper placement of the servlet file into the right folder of the whole Resin server installation. Is the servlet supposed to be placed into the "webapps" folder? If not then into which folder should it be put to be able to see it and not get the old server error msg. about the resource not found? Can you find the hidden words? Take a break and play Seekadoo!

Re: [Resin-interest] How to set default/global response encoding?
Hans, don't declare it manually in every jsp -- just once in your header portion of your view/jsp templates, which would typically be included in each individual jsp.

Re: [Resin-interest] application variables, j2ee - php, and shared nothing

Re: [Resin-interest] php4 in Quercus
Hey Fred, is the site very big or complex? I recommend moving to PHP5 whenever doing so causes too much bloodshed. Quercus is based on PHP5 with an eye on PHP6. Good luck, Yong On Jun 12, 2007, at 1:24 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I have a site using PHP4 that I would like to run under Resin, because I also have J2EE applications already running under Resin and would like to keep it all under one roof. I tried using Quercus but have run into problems. AFAICT, Quercus supports PHP5 and that may be causing the errors. To confirm this, I tried the site under Apache + PHP4 (works), and Apache + PHP5 (errors). So PHP5 seems to be causing the errors. Is there any way that I can run this PHP4 site under Resin? If this is not possible using Quercus, is there another option? Would using net.php.servlet and phpsrvlt.jar work under Resin? Has anyone tried this option, is it reliable?

Re: [Resin-interest] quercus questions
I love caucho products and all the work Scott has done (he's the fing man) but if it were me, I wouldn't use Quercus in production unless I was 100% sure my application ran 100% correctly on it. That said, most php applications will run *great*, especially if you hand built them. When you introduce a framework, you now must check to be sure that framework runs correctly as well. In getting familiar with webapps 'the java way' realize that as of today there is of course more than one way. But start with the fundamentals: - understand jsp and servlets -- plenty of material online (google: core servlets), but I recommend the Head First book -- read Sun's servlet spec - understand MVC aka 'model 2 mvc' - understand struts 1 -- see the online book 'struts survival guide' - experiment w/ Resin to learn about db connection pooling and other cool features In other words, learn to build a standard Java webapp. Then learn how to use Quercus. Many in the java camp would cringe at the notion of using php for anything other than the view. In addition, the Java community has gone waaay past manual database interactions like the usual php mysql and pdo functions. So you will at some point want to look at ORM layers like Hibernate et al, unless you really love sql and string concatenation. As for c and fun, I still have my hair and I like to keep it that way, but you might be a far better programmer than me.

[Resin-interest] Quercus: constants and Qcodo

Resin reports a servlet exception with the message com.caucho.quercus.QuercusRuntimeException: QApplicationBase::Unsupported is an unknown constant I've tried hacking the php class QApplicationBase and explicitly added 'public static $Unsupported = 1;' but to no avail.
