Re: Is there a solution to: jsessionid is ignored in a meta refresh?

[Bill Barker]

I've since changed my app that I used for the suggestion to not use
meta-refresh.  When it was working for me, I was using mod_jk 1.1.0 (the one
that ships with Tomcat 3.3.x), with:
JkOptions ForwardURICompat

The reason for this is that at the time I was only using TC 3.3.  This will
send to Tomcat the URL with the ';' already decoded.  At least with mod_jk
1.x, it shouldn't make that much of a difference, since the the mapping
logic should use the decoded URL to do the mapping (and, if I'm wrong, it's
a bug).

Problems with Jk2

[Theodore A. Jencks]

Hi All,

I'm having a problem getting mod_jk2 to work properly.  I've read the docs and unless 
I don't understand something everything should be working fine.  Here are my config 
files:

Apache:
LoadModule jk2_module   lib/apache/mod_jk2.so
(Apache starts and runs fine)

workers2.properties:
[shm]
file=/var/log/httpd/shm.file
size=1048576

[channel.socket:localhost:8009]
port=8009
host=127.0.0.1

[channel.un:/opt/tomcat/work/jk2.socket]
tomcatId=localhost:8009
debug=0

[ajp13:localhost:8009]
channel=channel.un:/opt/tomcat/work/jk2.socket

[status:status]

[uri:/examples/*]
worker=ajp13:/opt/tomcat/work/jk2.socket

[uri:/status/*]
worker=status:status


server.xml:

  
  








  
factory
org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory
  
  
pathname
conf/tomcat-users.xml
  


  
  




   

  

  

  





  
  

  
  
  
  
usernamesa
password
driverClassName
  org.hsql.jdbcDriver
url
  jdbc:HypersonicSQL:database
  
  
  

  mail.smtp.host
  localhost

  
  

  

  


I then go to http://myserver.net/examples/jsp/foobar and try to run the JSP however 
apache just comes back with a file not found error.  I was under the impression that 
mod_jk2 would redirect to tomcat and serve the JSP file.  Can anyone shed some light 
on the misconfiguration.

Regards,
Theo

I didn't have this error with Tomcat 4.0.3 . Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Is Tomcat setup to serve requests on port TCP:80? Is it binding to that port at 
all? Try "netstat -a".

Re: datasource setup

i will pass onto you what i learnt from Craig, and its check common-dbcp

i just finished making some changes to my datasource class and factory 
class and it works fine with tomcat. Took me few hours, YMMV , but i
learnt few things :)
make sure you do check common-dbcp, i wasted precious time playing with 
server.xml , not knowing exactly what happens, till i read souce code
for dbcp and everything worked fine then.

I'm pretty certain that I just need to reduce my session timeout (it's

Can't remmember the exact command but if you do a google search for

RE: Can't start tomcat

[Tref Gare]

I think it runs something like this.. but I'm running on vague cobweb memories

Right click the title of your Dos window.. go to properties and adjust the environment 
memory dedicated to that window.  

Sorry I can't be clearer

If you switch back, you're just as vulnerable as if you did the login
under non-SSL (in other words, the encryption of the username and
password on the SSL login gives you a *false* sense of security, not
anything real).  So why bother with all the extra effort in the first
place?

If you really care about the security of passwords, run the whole session
in SSL (and buy an extra CPU for your server, for goodness sake, if that
really matters).  If you don't care, life is much simpler if you just run
everything non-SSL.

If you decide to implement switching back to non-SSL on a public internet
app, please let me know where it is so I can avoid it.

Yep ... the issue is the exposure of session id information in cleartext,
not the mechanics of how you processed it on your server.

Hi,

To see the error message, run the startup script using

instead of double clicking the icon.

My guess would be that the problem is that you haven't
setup CATALINA_HOME environment variable.

Re: Filters don't affect request dispatcher forward

[Alexander Wallace]

I have one extra question... Asumming one should not switch from https
to http for security reasons... How does one handle the situation in
which a user should login with a password (that one would like to
encrypt so it can't be sniffed)? Should the whole app be run using
https? Isn't that too hard on resources?

Does this not switching from https to http also apply when you have
apache handling all the ssl comunication?


Thanks again in advance.

RE: Can Filter-mappings be defined using regular expressions?

The Servlet Specification describes allowable mappings, and doesn't describe
regex support, which means that it isn't there.  You'd have to roll your

RE: JSP Last-modified/If-modified-since

Just a hack for some oddity where some client worked better if I discarded
the milliseconds portion of the value (while preserving the magnitude).
When I searched the web, I found that Stuart MaClean from Univ. of Wash. had
done something similar.  YMMV.

> It looks to me like your "getLastModified()" method is returning the last
time this very jsp was edited.

Exactly.  If you don't want Conditional Get behavior, don't extend this
class at all!  Or if you do want Conditional Get behavior, but with a
different last modified value, then declare the latter in your page.

Glad that you found the post interesting.  If anyone decides to actually use
the code, I'd certainly appreciate hearing about it.

pre-compile, class package and Ant

[hacking bear]

Hello,

I attempt to use Ant1.5's jspc target to precompile my JSP page for Tomcat. 
I'm able to successfully compile the JSP into classes. but I found the 
resulting directory tree is different than that of Tomcat's automatic 
compilation. In the process of investigation, I found a few issues/question 
about Tomcat's way of generating classes from JSPs.

Say I have JSPs into two folders:
foo/
 p1.jsp
 error.jsp
bar/
 p2.jsp
error.jsp

Tomcat automatically compile them to classes (with package org.apache.jsp ) 
in the same directory structure:
foo/
 p1.java   p1.class
error.java   error.class
bar/
 p2.javap2.class
error.java   error.class

1. Does Tomcat assume all jsp classes be in package or.apache.jsp?

2. What happens to the two different error.class? They are different but 
they belong to the same package. Am I right? Would tomcat be able to load 
them separately?

3. JspC generates the java source files in the same structure as shown above 
but javac will generate class files in the normal java way like 
org/apache/jsp. Further the original folders of the JSP files are lost 
because all class files go to the same package; I couldn't even flatten-copy 
them to Tomcat's working directory. How could I get the same directory 
structure as Tomcat's using Ant? (I could do that in shell script by 
compiling-copying JSP file one by one.)

Thanks.

Re: Tomcat BOOK List Request

[micael]

You should get a lot of them from this:

Servlets:
Java Servlet Programming, Hunter and Crawford
JSP:
I learned this the hard way (reading the source code) and never 
found a book I liked before learning it on my own.
Tomcat:
Apache- akarta -Tomcat, Goodwill
David Geary has one coming out, which probably will be good.
Taglibs (essential to JSP);
Get Geary's book on that one.
Struts:
Struts in Action (new book), really good.
XML (you have to learn this or forget it)
Read Bret McLaughlin's books with O'Reilly - All of them.

RE: Memory/Performance

[developer]

Thanks the reply, you taught me a couple things.  My email that is on this
list is on my home
computer and unfortunately the power has been out on my street all day so
I am just reading this now.  realize when I say 1 million unique hits I
mean unique page visits not unique users, its close but still not the
same.  I still think i am pretty cool though. hahaha.  

You are right I am using cookies to keep my sessionid in check.  I have
been doing some tests and watching the logs when I login I see the
SessionListener messages with all the session
created and all the attribute added info.  I have timed it and when a
session goes inactive for the session timeout time it then issues the
sessiondestroyed and attribute removed commands.  It certainly seems to
work properly, and it is not allocating a new session per page.  I might
add that session.invalidate just to be safe
though.  Looking at your suicide example and some of the responses from
others on the list I am wondering what constitutes too much in terms of
allocating session objects?  Is there anyway to trace how big sessions are
growing to?  


It is difficult dealing with these problems while I am on my production
box here, but when I initially
rolled out the tomcat powered site it didn't have quite as much going on
and was only like 20 jsp pages now it is a couple hundred pages and lots
more beans per session.  Tomcat was certainly a lot stabler when the site was
a lot more cut and dry.   I migrated recently from 3.2 to 4.1.12 hoping
that would help with some of these problems but the problems still seem
to be there just with different error messages.  I have another tomcat
server up running just some
servlets that never create any session objects.  That server seems never
to have any of these problems.   So I am certainly fishing for problems in
my jsp code.  I also tend to think there are more problems with the JDK
rather than tomcat.  

You know I get these warning constantly do you know what the heck that is
all about?

Re: Is there a solution to: jsessionid is ignored in a meta refresh?

[Raiden]

Just to give everyone some information I tried Bill's idea to change
the ; to a %3b on a different computer (has a newer Redhat o/s, same
version of tomcat, a slightly older version of Apache, and possibly a
slightly different version of mod_jk), and it worked fine... both when
including additional path to a page, and when not.

So, it appears that the error I was getting below on the first machine was
due to a potentially buggy version/configuration in one of the above
mentioned software packages... and I have not yet isolated which.  But,
it does at least work correctly one one of my machines, which means the
other machines should also work with this method once I find out what
is configured incorrectly.

Thanks Bill!

An alternative strategy would be to map your filter to "/*" (so it
receives all requests) and then programmatically check the request URI in
the filter to decide whether or not to perform the redirection action.
You could use things like regular expressions, or whatever you wanted, to
make that sort of comparison.

Tomcat binding to port 80 on wrong IP address on W2K AdvancedServer?

[Thomas Cameron]

Howdy all -

I have a client who has an app which requires IIS (running on a W2K
Advanced Server).

Now, they want to add Tomcat for a Java web app which they have
developed in-house.  No big deal, I assign another IP address to the NIC
and tell Tomcat to use that IP address.

Unfortunately, now IIS fails to start saying the it can't bind - port in
use.  The stupid thing is that netstat -a does NOT show that anything is
listening on port 80 on the IP address that IIS is supposed to be
using.  Only on the IP address that Tomcat is supposed to use.  If I
stop Tomcat, IIS starts fine.  If I start IIS and then start Tomcat,
Tomcat says it started OK, but I can't open the web site that Tomcat is
serving.

I have double-checked that IIS is only supposed to bind to the IP
address I want it to.  I configured Tomcat thusly:



Anyone seen this?  Any pointers/advice/comments?

Thanks
Thomas

Can Filter-mappings be defined using regular expressions?

[Stephen Riek]

 There's got to be a better way of writing Filter-mapping than the following, where I 
want to allow any URL that begins either with:
a) /Products/*  or 
b) /<2 characters>/Products/* 

-->8--


  ProductsFilter

Using */Products/* doesn't necessarily do it (and I think wouldn't work anyway) since 
it would also collect match /SomeFolder/Another/Products which would be incorrect.

I don't mind using the above excep that it gets messy with multiple filters, and I was 
wondering if it could be more efficient for Tomcat written some other way.

RE: JSP Last-modified/If-modified-since

[Julius Davies]

Noel J. Bergman,

I was thinking about this same thing recently.  I really like what you've done.  I 
just have one concern - your default "getLastModified()" method seems incorrect to me:

>   protected long getLastModified(HttpServletRequest request)
>   {
>   long lm = (new
> java.io.File(getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRealPat
> h(request.getS
> ervletPath())).lastModified()) / 1000L * 1000L;
>   return lm;
>   }
> 

1.  java.io.File.lastModified() already returns a long.  Why are you dividing and 
multiplying by 1000L?

2.  It looks to me like your "getLastModified()" method is returning the last time 
this very jsp was edited.  To me that seems misleading:  suppose a developer 
mistakenly uses your feature, but their jsp is actually quite dynamic and its response 
changes with each new request.  They are going to have a helluva time figuring out why 
their jsp refuses to change its output.  I could be mistaken in my understanding of 
what's going on, though.

Instead I think your getLastModified() method should look like this instead:

protected long getLastModified(HttpServletRequest request)
{
return -1;
}

Notice from Javadoc:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpServlet.html#getLastModified(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)

Returns:
a long integer specifying the time the HttpServletRequest object was last modified, in 
milliseconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 GMT, or -1 if the time is not known

Now you'll have to add a little bit of code to deal with the "-1" circumstance in your 
service() method.  Thanks for your post though - very interesting.

JSP Last-modified/If-modified-since

[Noel J. Bergman]

This seems to be an FAQ item without a good solution, at least that I've
noticed on the list.  Recently I had to address this myself, moving some
sites over to Tomcat.  Here is my solution, for critique.

First, I subclassed Jasper's HttpJspBase to add the desired behavior:

abstract public class LastModifiedJSP extends
org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase
{
protected long getLastModified(HttpServletRequest request)
{
long lm = (new
java.io.File(getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRealPath(request.getS
ervletPath())).lastModified()) / 1000L * 1000L;
return lm;
}

public void service(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) req;
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) res;

long checkDate = request.getDateHeader("If-Modified-Since");
long lastMod = getLastModified(request);
if (checkDate > 0 && lastMod <= checkDate)
{
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_NOT_MODIFIED);
return;
}
response.setDateHeader("Last-Modified", lastMod);

super.service(request, response);
}

public String getServletInfo()
{
return "Base class for JSP pages that want Conditional Get handling.
Default getLastModified() returns lastModified() for JSP source file.";
}
}

then each page that wants to use this behavior includes:

   <%@ page extends="com.devtech.jsp.LastModifiedJSP" %>

That's it.  If a page wants to change its Last-Modified behavior, it can
optionally provide a getLastModified() method, just as a servlet would do.
And I will change the default behavior to also check included pages via
getIncludes().

Hi,

Yup.  Meta counts as a header as well.

You have to do it for each page.

This just does it for each page, but automatically so that you don't
have to manually include the header for each page.

>How about TOMCAT ( I mean standalone tomcat )??

There's no equivalent that I know of, but that's not surprising as
tomcat is not designed to be a full-featured standalone HTTP server.
That's what Apache (httpd) is for.

But you may be able to do something similar.  How about a Filter mapped
to everything (URL pattern /*) that adds the expiration and no-cache
headers to the response?

How to control the cache setting in Tomcat?

[Ma, Yongjie]

Hi

For the individual html page, we can turn on/off cache via META or header. 

But how can we do for the whole web application.

In the Apache web server, we can use module mod_expires and mod_headers to do it.

How about TOMCAT ( I mean standalone tomcat )??

Hi,
You could check the scheme to be safe, e.g.

if("http".equals(request.getScheme()))
{
  // it's HttpServletRequest...
}
else
{
  // Don't know what to do, pass it on...
}

Re: HELP!! Tomcat crashes on me!

[Steve R. Burrus]

  Hi "Rasputin", lemme "clue you in" to the fact that I HAVE gotten Tomcat 4.1.16 
[version] to run successfully/smoothly by now!!! I posted that fact to the newsgroup 
late last nite, guess that you just haven't seen it yet! And as for me "abusing" other 
people "please try not to shout abuse at people who are trying to help you,...", I 
guess that I was yesterday on Micael's case about the way that I percived him to be 
all the time with other people in the newsgroup!!! I thought that he received my 
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM rather well, wish that you could also take it that way. :)

Right, and it's given you an error that explains your server.xml is
invalid.
Since it seems to work out of the box for many people,
I'm guessing you've edited it. Why not try reinstalling, and this time,
don't edit the server.xml file - as other people have mentioned, you
shouldn't need to.

If it doesn't work, then try examining the logs to see why, and post
any errors you see there.

And please try not to shout abuse at people who are trying to help you, it
means people who could help you instead set their mailers to ignore you.

Cheers.

Re: Is there a solution to: jsessionid is ignored in a meta refresh?

[Raiden]

Hello,

This ALMOST seems to work.  I can't tell if I'm having a problem with
Apache, or it's a problem with Tomcat.

## It works for a URL like:
#http://www.myserver.com/%3bjsessionid=BC2DC8F1FACFD95501ED6A2A0BC9F5E2
#

## But, it doesn't seem to work for a URL like:
#http://www.myserver.com/login/index.jsp%3bjsessionid=BC2DC8F1FACFD95501ED6A2A0BC9F5E2
#

The addition of the "login/index.jsp" results in the following error:

  HTTP Status 404 -
  /login/index.jsp%3bjsessionid=BC2DC8F1FACFD95501ED6A2A0BC9F5E2

--

  type Status report

  (/login/index.jsp%3bjsessionid=BC2DC8F1FACFD95501ED6A2A0BC9F5E2) is not

  Apache Tomcat/4.1.12


It looks like the %3b was translated for (or by?) Tomcat when there was
no speific page given.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Raiden

So ..

HttpServletRequest HttpRequest = (HttpServletRequest) request;
String URI = Requete.getRequestURI();

Solved: Tomcat and security manager: unexpected java.security.AccessControlException on sun linux cobalt

[your mom]

Hi all.

We solved the problem with tomcat ignoring all grants for individual user
sites. It was a pure RTFM.
For every user site, a unique context is created on startup (as seen in
tomcat.log on debug level)

There is a outcommented line in the server.xml which has to be activated:



After activating the line it should look like this:



After that, tomcat actually assigns the permissions granted in the
tomcat.policy to the individual user sites.

thanx for your all your help on this group,

Hi David,
Fortunately for me, we have the same first name :).  I see what I think is 
the path your leading me down.  I built the jar file myself with jdk 1.2 
but am running tomcat using jdk 1.4.  I rebuilt the jar file using the 1.4 
version (tho the class files were still compiled using 1.2 -- I'm making a 
mental note of this in case it causes me future problems).  The jar file 
now seems to load ok on start up.  Just to answer some of your other  
questions, I'm running Red Hat 7.3 with kernel 2.4.18-3smp.

Thanks for the questions, sometimes they can be just as good as answers 
:).

I would want to redirect users or do something else so when a password

RE: Not getting CSS with XML

[Kris Schneider]

Actually, I'm confused as to why you'd ever use a scriptlet for setting the
content type in a JSP. In addition, the default content type is already
text/html, so setting it explicitly seems redundant. The output's actually
supposed to be XML, right? How 'bout something like:

<%@ page contentType="text/xml" %>
<%@ include file="mary.xml" %>

RE: Not getting CSS with XML

[Caton, Paul]

Ah ha! Thanks, Julius - that got rid of the server error. But I'm still
back with the lack of CSS. The logs aren't helping either, except
negatively. That is, when I access mary2.jsp (which simply includes
mary.html)the localhost_access_log shows:

  "Get /acsam/mary2.jsp HTTP 1.1" 200 358
  "Get /acsam/mary2.css HTTP 1.1" 200 96

But when I access mary.jsp (which simply includes mary.xml) the log just
shows:


  "Get /acsam/mary.jsp HTTP 1.1" 200 182

It looks like there's something inside ?Jasper/?Catalina which doesn't
know what to do with the  tag when it gets it via a
compiled JSP. I just wish I knew that for sure, and then I could give up
trying to use the XML/CSS/JSP combination (although it would be really,
really convenient for our project if that combination worked). If anyone
else has got this combination to work, please let me know how.
Meanwhile, my thanks to people who have been trying to help.

Paul.

Paul Caton,

The error message your getting is because of the fact that
"response.setContentType()" doesn't return anything.  You used "<%= %>"
in your jsp, which needs an Object or a primitive inbewteen those
brackets.  Your jsp is then going to call toString() on that Object (or
just blithely print the primitive) and make that part of your webpage.

Since "response.setContentType()" doesn't return anything, there is no
Object to call toString() on, or no primitive to blithely print!

Try "<% %>" instead.  Omit the equals sign.  Don't forget to put a
semicolon at the end.

yours,

Julius Davies, Programmer, CUCBC

Code inside "<%= %>" should never end with a semicolon.

Code inside "<% %>" needs semicolons at the end of each line.

can get it to re-deploy is if I remove the existing directory under 
webapps then shutdown/restart Tomcat.  If I delete the directory and 
move a new .war file into /webapps while TC is running, it's not

while it's in the /webapps directory, it's immediately deployed with 
the new directory name w/o restarting TC.  In a nutshell, if I use the 
same .war name, it won't redeploy unless I restart TC.  I'm using the 
out-of-the-box server.xml, where unpackWARs="true" and 
autoDeploy="true" for localhost.
Is there no way to 'hot' deploy an existing app the way I'd like 
without restarting Tomcat? I've looked at the documentation and

Hello Mark, i u r using: http://localhost:8080/manager then this works 4 
me: http://localhost:8080/manager/remove?path= and 
http://localhost:8080/manager/install?path= where "" 
means ur application context generated from ur .war. u must "remove" 
then "re-install" using the /manager webapp and "hot" deploy works w/o 
bouncing tc. hope this helps, david

Actually, this isn't working the way I thought it was/would.  By doing a 
remove/install of the app, TC is running from the .war file vs. unpacking 
the .war and running the app from the subdirectories.  This works, but 
(as we discovered) if/when TC is restarted, the result is the 'old' 
version of the app running from the subdirectory because we didn't remove it.
Maybe we're trying to mix-match or doing something real unconventional 
(dumb), but the question/problem seems pretty straightforward: given a 
previously-deployed unpacked app called 'myapp', can Tomcat refresh the 
contents of the /webapps/myapp subdirectories automatically from a new 
.war file? The only way we've been able to do that is to shutdown TC, 
delete the /myapp directory and restart TC, allowing it to unpack the 
.war and re-create the /myapp directory structure.
Based on what I've found, it looks like we should use one of these 2 
methods for hot-deployment:
1) Run the app from the .war vs. unpacking it, and use remove/install.
2) Replace changed files in the /myapp directory structure, and use reload.
Both work but I'm curious what method is typically used/recommended, or 
whether it's just personal preference.   Thanks.

Hello Mark, acutally u need to do both 1 and 2 as i do but i guess i left 
out part of my automation process which is: ant. this little (no pun

my development structure. the ant tool basically automates the phsysicall 
removal of the "old" webapp directory as it completes the compile, 
generation and deployment of all my .ear, .war and .jar files. i run ant 
with 2 or more (depending on the depth of the webapp directories) 
build.xml files and 2 scripts namely: cleansite.sh and buildsite.sh (w/ 
controlling parms). these tools completely build or rebuild webapp/site, 
tear down the old and replace w/ the new and all is immediately accessible

Thanks again David. That was my plan, to use Ant to create a fresh 
environment and control Tomcat via the TC Ant tasks.  We'll be using the 
continuous-integration tool CruiseControl, and I wanted the build/deploy 
process to be basically transparent to developers after they commit changes 
to CVS, except for a notification of a build success/failure.

RE: Not getting CSS with XML

[Julius Davies]

Paul Caton,

The error message your getting is because of the fact that "response.setContentType()" 
doesn't return anything.  You used "<%= %>" in your jsp, which needs an Object or a 
primitive inbewteen those brackets.  Your jsp is then going to call toString() on that 
Object (or just blithely print the primitive) and make that part of your webpage.

Since "response.setContentType()" doesn't return anything, there is no Object to call 
toString() on, or no primitive to blithely print!

Try "<% %>" instead.  Omit the equals sign.  Don't forget to put a semicolon at the 
end.

yours,

Julius Davies, Programmer, CUCBC
Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], Ph: 604.730.6385


Code inside "<%= %>" should never end with a semicolon.

Code inside "<% %>" needs semicolons at the end of each line.

Hi all.

Can someone direct me to the following two things please...

1. The most exhaustive online, free resource for Tomcat documentation
2. Whats the best newsletter to keep in touch with the J2EE World updates.
Like we have  IEEE software for SE, Dr Dobb blah blah, but whats  a good one
for j2ee in general. I tried google but there are so many results I dont
know what to do:)

Btw ,bless the soul of the man who suggested Eclipse. It rocks! I used VA fo
Java 3.5 last time I did a project , buthad to make do with Jbuilder till
eclipse came along.  I didnt find a fav. feature I like din editors --the
ctrl + bracket key to manually check brackets match or not and till where.

Hello Jasper, the actual os should not matter. what matters is ur http

though possible, apache can run on nt but it seems many people elect to run 
ms iis. iis presents its own set of problems: 1) more difficult to config w/ 
tomcat. 2) to run a publicly accessible server u will have to run a firewall 
router appliance like a cisco router because nt/win2k/xp have no built-in 
firewall protection that is reliable. also, iis is one of the most security 
compromised servers on the planet. check out ur local isp running linux or 
solaris servers and take a look at their syslog logs to see the amount of 
compromised iis servers running that r looking for more platforms to 
compromise. also, the cisco tcp stack has flaws that r easily compromised if 
the router is not configured correctly. finally, look at:

Tomcat 4.1.12 startup speed

[Brandon Cruz]

I have recently upgraded about 200 virtual hosts from tomcat 3.2.4 to tomcat
4.1.12 and noticed that it takes much longer to start the server.  Tomcat
4.1.12 seems to print out quite a bit of information about each virtual host
and context that it is creating, which may be causing the long startup time.
Each host has at least three contexts, which means there are over one
thousand messages printed by the time all hosts are loades and before tomcat
can take any requests.

Is there a way to turn off the logging (I already have everything set to 0)
or speed up the startup?

Thanks!

Am using the ajp13 connector between apache(2.34) and tomcat 4.0.3 under window 2000
server. Am using the scope as 'application' in all JSP files.

Here is settings :

 I have minimum processor as 20 in server.xml and the maximum processor as 100 for 
ajp13

Here is issue :
Tomcat is not recycling these  threads and not allowing my other user to use those 
process threads. The number of threads are  growing  rapidly
even with  one or two user and ends up with 100 thread , finally hangs


What could be the problem, or how do i able to relieve these thread after usage.

Ultimately i want reuse the thread in ajp13 connector

The page cannot be displayed, HTTP 500 - Internal server error

[Tomislav Miladinovic]

Hi,

After so many tries to get Tomcat 4.1.12 works (get home page) I am still experiencing 
error (after browsing http://localhost:8080). I try change Catalina port to 80 
(server.xml) but no difference.

The page cannot be displayed, HTTP 500 - Internal server error 

I didn't have this error with Tomcat 4.0.3 . Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for helping.  I was speculating on something like
this, but didn't know if it's true.  If you have time, please point me to
some where easy to find info on how to do this (since you did the same
thing before).  Again, thank you very much for the help.

RE: Need help with Tomcat!

[Turner, John]

Because there is more to adding a directory to Tomcat than just throwing a
Context tag into server.xml.  Did you create a web.xml file?  Is your
DefaultContext configured correctly?  Do you have the right directory
structure under /test (it should mirror the directory structure under
/examples)?

You might want to check the documentation, such as the Application
Developer's Guide, which will explain things like directory structures,
deployment requirements, etc.:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/index.html

Need help with Tomcat!

[Roland Dong]

I managed to install Tomcat 4.1.12 on Mac os X 1.2

However I was unable to run my applications.

I am testing the tomcat by add test directory under webapps with only one
file, index.html,  in it.

I restarted the server and typin http://localhost:8090/test/index.html. It
gives me an error: 

"The requested resource (/test/index.html) is not available."

Should tomcat automatically load the application at startup? I also tried to
add  

To server.xml. That wouldn't work either?

Did I miss something?

I am new to Tomcat. Please help

Thanks a lot,

RD

I'm not sure what you're really asking, but ...

If you declare a security constraint with a transport guarantee, any URL
that matches the specified pattern(s) can *only* be accessed via SSL.  Any
URL that does not match the pattern can be accessed over *either* SSL or
non-SSL.

One additional note -- web applications that allow a user to switch from
SSL back to non-SSL on the same session are broken.  What you've just done
is allowed anyone snooping the network to swipe the session id and
impersonate your user (for example, click the "buy" button again using the
credit card number that was entered on a secure page).

You should program your apps that, once a user switches from non-SSL to
SSL, you never again accept a non-SSL request for that same session id.
If the user needs to go back (for example, after checking out of an
ecommerce site you want to buy some more stuff), start a new session first
(and clear the confidential data you might have captured).

RE: Not getting CSS with XML

[Cox, Charlie]

that should work. Make sure you have it *before* your include and before any
whitespace in your jsp.

Also look in the logs for errors. 

You may want to use AccessLogValve(to log requests) to see if the css is
requested with the wrong path.

You're correct ... security constraints (including transport guarantees)
are only applied on the initial request.  I was offering an alternative to
using a filter for this purpose -- let the container do the work for you.

Not to mention that it's not actually possible to switch to SSL in the
middle of an existing HTTP request *without* doing a redirect ...

Tomcat and IIS

[Schultz, Cecilia]

Hi,

I installed Tomcat 3.3.1, win2K server with IIS 

I followed the IIS HowTo and did all the additional IIS setup to have IIS redirect 
jsp/servlets to tomcat (started tomcat with jkconf option, generated the 
isapi_redirect.properties files in conf/auto, created Jakarta virtual directory on 
isapi_redirect.dll, restarted tomcat, etc)


I have a simple test1.jsp with content:



<% String thispage="test1.jsp"; %>
this page is <%=thispage %> 




I am able to see a "this page is test1.jsp" when I do:

http://webapps2/examples/test1.jsp

http://webapps2/admin/test2.jsp


but when I try to see it in the web app that I set up (which is not not under 
c:\tomcat\webapps)
I don't get to see the jsp part (I only see "this page is")

http://webapps2/i1440/test1.jsp


"i1440" is a virtual directory that points to a directory path 
F:\i1440root\opt\i1440\webapps\i1440

this directory has a WEB-INF under it, and a web.xml is inside this WEB-INF directory.

At this point, the content of web.xml is very simple:


http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd";>

   JHU iTrack





also, the content of c:\tomcat\conf\apps-i1440.xml is





  




Why am I doing wrong? why am I not able to see a test1.jsp under my i1440 web app? is 
tehre a restriction in Tomcat that your webapp needs to be under c:\tomcat\webapps  ?


Thanks in advance for your help
Cecilia

Hi - thanks for the answer;

I found the following line in the description for java.io.FilePermission
indicating that i could have a serious problem in understanding english

Is there a difference between "all files and subdirectories" and "any file"?
Nevertheless i'll try every posted solution until tomcat stops ignoring my

You really don't want to do this! Apart from securing the 'visible' data

Re: Tomcat and security manager: unexpected java.security.AccessControlExceptionon sun linux cobalt

[Jeanfrancois Arcand]

J.P.Jarolim wrote:


Hi!

I've been working on this since beginnig last week together with a friend
and can't find a clue:

My friend owns a sun cobalt with linux, apache and tomcat.
The system seems to be ready to use for providers - there is a config
utility
to add new user sites with a lot of options (like: user gets mysql, pop3,
tomcat, or whatever)

After creating a site with jsp, we deployed a jsp-testsuite which tests the
given infrastructure:
reading files, instancing classes, trying a db-query on mysql and so on
(Which works fine on
our local system). But every time we try to execute the testsuite we get one
of these SecurityExceptions:

java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission
/home/.sites/143/site40/web/test.txt read)
(Test.txt is the file we want to read in the first part of our testsuite:
File permissions 777)

We looked into the tomcat docs how to setup the security manager correctly
and looked into the tomcat.policy file
in the {tomcat.home}/conf dir just to see that everything was set correctly
(for us) from the site management utility:

...
grant codeBase "file:/home/.sites/143/site40/web/-" {
 permission SocketPermission "localhost:1024-", "listen,connect,resolve";
 permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*", "read,write";
 permission java.io.FilePermission "/home/.sites/143/site40/-",
"read,write,delete";


This is the problem. You need to put the file name, not the path. If 
need to put <> if you want to grant access to all file under 
your context, or test.txt if you only want to be able to read that file.

-- Jeanfrancois



 permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessClassInPackage.sun.io";
};
...

Tomcat seems to run secure with the right file (as seen under ps -Af) but
seems to ignore all grants for the user sites:

...
java -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy==/usr/java/jakarta-tomca
t/conf/tomcat.policy -Dtomcat.home=/usr/java/jakarta-tomcat
org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat

Some users on groups.google mentioned, that the codeBase should be the same
as the docBase in the server.xml:
...
 
 
 

...

but this looks correct to me too. We even tried to give my site all
permissions:

grant codeBase "file:/home/.sites/143/site40/web/-" {
   permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

But that is ignored too. The testsuite is neither able to open a file nor
just to read the length.
We have the same problems when instancing a class which tries to dynamically
instance another class. Like:

myDriver = (Driver)Class.forName(DriverName).newInstance();  // This is a
part of opening a connection to the mysql-db

To get that straight: Everything runs fine without security manager - But
who wants to run a root-tomcat without a security manager ;-)
Could anyone give me a clue where we could look at? After one week of
googling we're somehow out of ideas...

thanks in advance,

Subject: help!  authentication problem

I have a problem that hopefully someone has seen before -- please help
if you can.  I am trying to get Tomcat to do declarative
authentication/auth. using a JDBCRealm (via a Sybase database).  I am
using Sybase's Jconnect5.5 driver.  It seems like I have followed the
instructions to configure this, but the authentication fails and there
is an exception in my app's logfile that says the following:

The column is called 'username' in the database, however.  The
following clips of the server.xml file and web.xml file may give some
insight???


Is this column called "username" in *both* the "users" and "roles"  
tables?
The particular query that broke (at line 476 of JDBCRealm) is trying
to read from the roles table, while it appears from the log that
authenticating the user was successful (meaning the users table is
probably ok).

Although this element (confusingly) refers to a "realm", it's only used
when you are using BASIC authentication -- this value shows up in the
pop-up dialog that the browser shows for you.  You can make it say
whatever you want.


		
			/login.html
			/login-error.html
		


You don't need these if you're using BASIC authentication.

RE: VIRTUAL HOST CONFIGURATION

Re: Access denied... to /tmp !?

That's the proper behaviour. By default, a web application is only able

grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/<>/-" {
   permission java.io.FilePermission "/tmp", "read";
};
   


OK, this raises another issue. The problem arose because my servlet makes use 
of the maybeupload package http://www.weft.co.uk/library/maybeupload/ >
which I wrote and maintain, but which is also used in a number of other 
people's code including Cocoon 2, so it's moderately important that it 
doesn't do stupid things.

MaybeUploadServlet checks in it's init method that it's upload directory 
exists and is writable:

	uploadDir = new File( uploadDirPath);

	if ( ! uploadDir.isDirectory() || ! uploadDir.canWrite())
	throw new 
		UnavailableException( "Cannot write to upload directory " + 
  uploadDirPath);

UploadDirPath is a runtime configurable parameter, expected to be picked up 
from the web.xml:

	uploadDirPath = getStringParameterValue( "upload_dir_path", config, 
		 uploadDirPath);

However, if no value is specified in the web.xml, then currently the 
hard-coded default is /tmp; the thinking being this is it's usually a safe 
place to write stuff.

Clearly, though, as you point out, this is the wrong thing to do. The obvious 
solution is to alter MaybeUploadServlet so that if no upload_dir_path is 
specified in the web.xml, to switch off the upload facility altogether, 
possibly appending a warning to the log. However I don't know who else's code 
this will hurt (and, indeed, it's interesting that I haven't had anyone else 
report this to me as a bug).

Because they probably runs Tomcat without the security manager, so they 
can read/write from any context :-)


Could anyone suggest a means of getting a 'safe' directory path for 
UploadDirPath to default to, or should I go for the 'switch off' behaviour?

Have you try the solution proposed by Yoav? This is probably the best 
solution if you want a "tmp" directory for each web-app. If  you only 
want 1 directory, then the /tmp is fine (but works only on Unix).

RE: How to connect to a Data-File above the WEB-INF-Folder from a servlet????

[Shapira, Yoav]

Howdy,

You want to be careful when running executables from your servlet (and
from a web server in general).  You're opening up security holes there.

>From your servlet, assuming the file is at "/home/myname/myprogram":

String execPath = "/home/myname/myprogram";
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process myProcess = runtime.exec(execPath);

// Wait for process to complete
p.waitFor();

Your executable needs to handle the case where it is concurrently
invoked by multiple servlets.  Alternatively, you could write a
singleton that coordinates access from your servlets to the executable.
The singleton would then do the above, and the servlets would just do
stuff like
ExecutableSingleton.getInstance().runProgram();

This is not really a tomcat question.  See the JavaDocs for the Runtime
and Process classes for more information.

VIRTUAL HOST CONFIGURATION

[karthikeyan.balasubramanian]

Hi All,

  I have sucessfully integarated Apache with Tomcat using WarpConnecter.  But how do i 
go about from here to implement lots of Virtual Host for our clients.  I  need to 
setup atleast 5 virtual hosts.  I couldnt actually figure a way to host 5 real domains 
with JSP and Servlet support.  

  What are all the changes I need to do in the Httpd.conf and Server.xml.  I dont want 
to keep users folder under 
TOMCATHOME/Webapps/UserContext it will be under /usr/home/users-home-directory.

  Can anybody help me out on this.  If somebody out here who have hosted some real 
domains rather then localhost thing 
please advice.

  Looking forward for yours response.

karthikeyan.

thx 4 ur help, this it is what I wanted.

But there is also another Question. I have a ".exe-file" that I want to 
start out of the servlet. Of course with some paramteters and one of my 
data-files as one of the parameters. Is that possible? And how do I do 
that?
If that works and the .exe-file is accessing my data-file and another 
instance of the servlet does the same the tomcat can be crash or the 
servlet or so. How do I handle that?

How do I connect to a Data-File above the WEB-INF-Folder from a
   

servlet
 

For example my class is placed in
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/myApp/server/servlet.class
and my data-files are placed in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/data/data.dat or
so. Is this possible or does anybody know a better way to place my
data-files? And how do I connect to them?
   


Data files belonging to or referenced by your webapp should be under
your webapp's structure (or within your webapps .war file).  So if your
app is in the ROOT context, your data files should be in
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/data/data.dat.

Then, from your servlets, you could do:

InputStream is =
getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/data/data.dat");
(and do whatever you need with the input stream, e.g. read it)
or
URL fileUrl = getServletContext().getResource("/data/data.dat");
To just get the URL for the file.  Don't assume this is a file:// or an
http:// URL.  It may be a jndi:/localhost/... type of URL as well.

You could also use 
String filePath = getServletContext().getRealPath("/data/data.dat");
approach, but that won't work if you're deploying out of a .war file.

Finally, if for some reason you cannot place your data files under your
own context, you can set a data file directory as a context parameter in
your web.xml.  For example:

 dataFileDirectory
 /home/myname/mydatafiles


Then in your servlets, you could do:
String dataFileDirectory =
getServletContext().getInitParameter("dataFileDirectory");

String filePath = dataFileDirectory + File.separator + "data.dat";
And go from there.

I hope you find this helpful,

cloudscape datasource

[work]

hi,

I am trying very hard to get a clouscape datasource up and running using
tomcat 4.0.6.

Ive put the jars into common lib
have added the server.xml context elements.
have the web.xml res elements
but get Namingexception cannot create resource instance.
This is using good code.
I can get a manual connection ie Class.forName.
DB is running as I can select using this manual method.
Any ideas or experience would really help me sleep as this is personal now.
