Good morning All.
Below are two methods recently noted in NetWare forums to get recent
Tomcat-5 to properly compile JSP's.
I have tried method 1. and was able to successfully get a jsp to work that
had previously failed with a java IOerror.
I haven't tried the second approach but its author seemed satisfied.
For information and consideration.
Norm
-------------------------------------------------
Method 1.
Try editing conf/web.xml, search for "<servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>".
put in:
<init-param>
<param-name>scratchdir</param-name>
<param-value>/tomcat/5019/work</param-value>
</init-param>
(your tomcat path may not be the same as mine)
This *is* a workaround, but it appears to work with the few jsp test
pages I have tried...

Method 2.
OK, forget this... I've recompiled Tomcat5 with a rewrite of the faulty
renameTo() function on line 230 of SmapUtil.java, something like this:
static void install(File classFile, byte[] smap) throws IOException
{
File tmpFile = new File(classFile.getPath() + "tmp");
new SDEInstaller(classFile, smap, tmpFile);
if (!classFile.delete()) {
throw new IOException("classFile.delete() failed");
}
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(tmpFile);
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(classFile);
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int i = 0;
while((i=fis.read(buf))!=-1) {
fos.write(buf, 0, i);
}
fis.close();
fos.close();
if (!tmpFile.delete()) {
throw new IOException("classFile.delete() failed");
}
}
Works like a charm :-)
cheers
