EL comes with the Servlet 2.4 spec which is supported in Tomcat 5x. I believe 
you may be able to get EL like behaviour with the Struts-EL taglib, but you 
won't get it out of the box on Tomcat 4.

RE: EL not working...

Yes it will be in pageContext, so

%= pageContext.getAttribute(username) %

 Hi Guys/Allistair,
 
 I got this code .
 
 bean:cookie name=%= Konstants.COOKIE_USERNAME  % id=username/
 .
 .
 .
 td align=lefthtml:text property=usernamesize=15
 value=${username.value} //td
 
 Any suggestions how to access the cookie value?
 
 Thanks

RE: Multi-click from the same user

Your idea sounds like it makes sense but I can see that you may have trouble, 
since even if you can identify a duplicate request, you will have lost (I 
think) the request/response link on each subsequent click of the button (which 
generates unique requests). I do not think you'd be able to connect an 
arbitrary request with a reponse that was intended for an earlier request, but 
maybe I am wrong.

 Hello,
 
 We have a Struts intranet-web site running under tomcat 4.1.24.
 
 Some of the application function are pretty slow ( more than 10
 secondes), and sometime users get mad and click 10 times on the same
 button. Tomcat raise 10 thread and on such slow operation, the server
 can get very slowed down.
 
 Aside of javascript solutions ( blocking the button to be clicked
 twice), is there a tomcat configuration solution for this probleme ?
 
 I would imaging for instance, a HTTP connector that detect that the
 same call is being made by the same browser (or same 
 UserPrincipal), to
 the same url with the same parameters , and instead of raising a new
 thread, wait for the 1 thread to end and returns its result ... Am I
 dreaming ?
 
 Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: EL not working...

Hi,

I've just checked the bean taglib api and id is the page scope variable name 
that the cookie value gets put into, therefore

bean:cookie name=%= Konstants.COOKIE_USERNAME  % id=username /

%= pageContext.getAttribute(username) %

Really ought to be doing the job :)

RE: Rép. : RE: Multi-click from the same user

The common way that this is achieved is similar to the previous poster. When a 
user clicks the button, you would actually move them to another page 
straightaway that spawns the 1 request thread and makes it very clear not to 
refresh the page. This is the strategy you can see with online booking services 
in particular like flights, holidays and so on, where it's essential that the 
user books once.

RE: Perf Issue: HttpClient.executeMethod takes more time if there are more number of threads in the process

Complete stab in the dark here ... Tomcat serves a maximum number of threads at 
a time (request processing threads). It may be that Tomcat's timings are 
accurate for the threads *when* it executes them, but your HTTP Client will be 
seeing a queue when Tomcat has no spare request thread capacity. You can tweak 
this with the max processors attribute for Tomcat's connectors.

Just a guess, take with pinch of salt.

 Subject: Perf Issue: HttpClient.executeMethod takes more time if there

 Hi,
 I am running tomcat 5.0.28 on Linux (2.6.9-5.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 
 19:29:47 EST 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux).
 
 I am having another test box which runs java process with 1000 
 threads(each thread will send 1 http requests to above 
 tomcat server 
 in the delay of 1 ms). This test process uses the HttpCommon api's to 
 make use of http connection pool's keep alive capability.
 Each thread in the above test process will send the post 
 request to the 
 tomcat using HttpClient.excecuteMethod.
 
 If I check the avg response time in the tomcat server it is somewhere 
 around 12 to 20 ms
 
 But in the test process, the time taken to execute the 
 HttpClient.executeMethod varies between 3 ms to 21855 ms  
 (avg: 1723.61 ms)
 
 Parallely (still above test process is running) I start same test 
 process from the same test box with 10 threads (each thread 
 will send 10 
 http requests to above tomcat in the delay of 1 ms). Now I 
 see the time 
 taken to execute the HttpCleint.executeMethod varies between 
 9ms to 146 
 ms (avg: 32.47 ms).
 
 The difference between first process and second process is number of 
 threads.  I am trying to understand the reason on why 
 HttpClient.executeMethod is taking more time if I have more number of 
 threads trying to send the http request?
 
 Do I need to fine tune something to make it better? Is it a expected 
 behaviour ? if yes, any reason?
 Or I am doing something wrong my code ?
 
 TIA,
 Bhaskar

RE: Perf Issue: HttpClient.executeMethod takes more time if there are more number of threads in the process

Hi,

Tomcat's max threads by default is usually around 75. I you fire 10 at it then 
they all get serviced immediately. 

If you send 1000, all 75 get taken up, meaning a queue forms for the 1000-75 
remaining threads until Tomcat has spare threads for them.

 In my testbox, both of the following processes are running 
 simultaniously:
 
 java testprocess 1: 1000 threads  (avg time to execute the 
 executeMethod:1723.61 ms)
 java testprocess 2: 10 threads (avg resp time to execute the 
 executeMethod: 32 ms)
 
 If it is to do with max processor attribute of Tomcat server 
 side then 
 how come I am seeing good response with another test java 
 process which 
 had less number of threads ?
 
 More over in tomcat, I am seeing the average response time as 
 12 to 20 
 ms. If there is a problem in tomcat side, then i might have seen huge 
 numbers here.

Has anyone pointed out to you that JBoss uses Tomcat for JSP/Servlets? 
Therefore the question is not is Tomcat better, but what management features 
you need and which functionality from the J2EE stack you require.

RE: tomcat 5.5.9, JSP, EL evaluation

Hi,

1. Check your JSP imports the c tag library
2. Check your web.xml schema is for J2EE 2.4

web-app xmlns=http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee; 
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; version=2.4 
xsi:schemaLocation=http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee 
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd;

3. You don't need to use c:out for this kind of thing. Just

${users}

in the page works. Many people don't seem to realise this.

Allistair.

 Subject: tomcat 5.5.9, JSP, EL evaluation
 
 
 Hi,
 
  
 
 My jsp page contains a c:out value=${users}/. The result is
 ${users}. I had a look in the generated .java and it seems 
 the ${users}
 is not evaluated : _jspx_th_c_out_0.setValue(new String(${users}));
 
  
 
 Is there something to configure with tomcat 5.5.9 to enable the
 evaluation of the EL ?
 
  
 
 Thanks for your help.
 
 Walther

RE: tomcat 5.5.9, JSP, EL evaluation

Hi,

You don't need to import the tag libraries for EL etc.. only in your pages. 
However, the new schema will cause problems for your web.xml in other ways. 
Here is a valid web.xml

?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
web-app xmlns=http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee; 
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; version=2.4

Requests that are not handled by ROOT

Hi,
 
Mind's gone a little blank, should know this but our webapp has a setup such 
that a filter maps /* requests and handles them.
 
However, Tomcat is preventing requests that do not match /abc with a 404 I 
think because it thinks abc is another web application if it has /abc/def
 
E.g
 
/index.do HTTP/1.1 200 -
/utilities/index.do HTTP/1.1 404 -
 
My question is how do I get all requests (i.e both those above) to get handled 
by the ROOT web application?
 
Cheers, Allistair

RE: Cannot create JDBC driver of class - help!!

2005-08-01 Thread Allistair Crossley

Is Context not supposed to be within a Host element? You also have a lowercase 
c in context rather than Context. You also will want jdbc/ before the name 
for the datasource. 

In fact, I think you need to read the manual (I am assuming Tomcat 5.0, 
otherwise look at your version).

RE: How to set auto-commit to false on a Tomcat Connection-Pool?

I found this on the web for Struts using 
org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource which I believe Tomcat also uses. 
Therefore perhaps you can try defaultAutoCommit instead.

data-source key=homeDS type=org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource
set-property property=driverClassName 
value=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver /
set-property property=url value=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:DBLOCAL /
set-property property=username value=user /
set-property property=password value=pwd /
set-property property=maxActive value=10 /
set-property property=maxWait value=5000 /
set-property property=defaultAutoCommit value=false /
set-property property=defaultReadOnly value=false /
set-property property=validationQuery value=SELECT SYSDATE FROM DUAL /

RE: tomcat 5.5, jdk1.5 on user mode debian stable hangs after a few days

Hi,

Hanging, memory up 50%, sounds very much like an OutOfMemoryException to me. I 
know from experience that Tomcat can hang with no memory and not log to stdout 
either (although most of the time it does). 

Have you profiled your application under a load test?

Cheers, Allistair.

 Hello,
 
 I've searched far and wide for a definitive answer to this 
 problem, but 
 have found nothing that relates to my situation.
 
 I did find a few similar issues, but
 
 1. I have no System.exit in my code
 2. I am not using the root context
 
 and still after a few days tomcat stops responding.
 
 The problem also doesnt go away after i stop and re-start tomcat.
 
 And occasionally it wont stop with ./bin/shutdown.sh
 
 so i have to kill -9 the first process to stop it.
 
 when it is running, the CPU usage runs at over 90% and the 
 memory usage 
 goes up to 50% or so.
 
 It doesnt even respond when i telnet to localhost 8080.
 
 does anyone know a viable fix for this problem ?
 
 thanks,
 
 martin

RE: tomcat 5.5, jdk1.5 on user mode debian stable hangs after a few days

Hi,

You can get JProbe freeware for profiling and use JMeter to issue load to your 
web application.

Does the same phenoneneneneom occur with a vanilla Tomcat 5.5 install with 
included webapps like jsp-examples. First figure out if it is your webapp 
that's causing it.

 no, the odd thing is, it wasnt even being used (and its a very simple 
 application, of course, thats a relative term)
 
 i installed the app, tested it once and logged out.
 
 I came back to it a few days later and the whole thing is hanging.
 
 If you can recommed any tools i can use to detect what is 
 happening that 
 would be much appreciated
 
 the app itself uses spring, openamf (an open source flash remoting 
 connector) with some jdbc (mysql)
 
 so i guess that any one of these (and my code) could be the culprit.
 
 I'll look into each of these individually and see if they could be 
 causing the problem.
 
 thanks.

  Have you profiled your application under a load test?

 Hello,
 
 I've searched far and wide for a definitive answer to this 
 problem, but 
 have found nothing that relates to my situation.
 
 I did find a few similar issues, but
 
 1. I have no System.exit in my code
 2. I am not using the root context
 
 and still after a few days tomcat stops responding.
 
 The problem also doesnt go away after i stop and re-start tomcat.
 
 And occasionally it wont stop with ./bin/shutdown.sh
 
 so i have to kill -9 the first process to stop it.
 
 when it is running, the CPU usage runs at over 90% and the 
 memory usage 
 goes up to 50% or so.
 
 It doesnt even respond when i telnet to localhost 8080.
 
 does anyone know a viable fix for this problem ?
 
 thanks,
 
 martin

RE: Logging With Tomcat 5.5

Don't confuse not understanding with not sufficient. The instructions do 
lead to a correct configuration. However, here it is more explicitly.

Allistair.

Per-webapp logging
==

1. Add log4j's jar to both your webapp's WEB-INF/lib folders
2. Add log4j.properties to both your webapp's WEB-INF/classes folders. 
*Minimally*, add

log4j.rootCategory=debug, R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=c:/jakarta-tomcat/logs/webapp-name.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=1500KB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%d - %5p (%C:%L) - %m%n

to those log4j.properties files changing the File path appropriately.

Ideally you will pick up the log4j manual and create appenders that map to 
packages.

Tomcat logging with log4j
=

I've found the best way is

1. Add log4j jar to common/lib, add commons-logging.jar to common/lib
2. Add log4j.properties to common/classes with content

log4j.rootCategory=error, R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender

 Hello,
 
 I am sure this topic has been beaten to death, but I am 
 having trouble understanding how the Log4J works, and how I 
 can configure it on my localbox.
 
 First off, I am running Tomcat 5.5 and I have created two 
 webapp contexts. One is a dev site, and the other is a 
 production site. I am using struts (I don't think it matters).
 
 I would to be able to have two sets of rolling logs. One for 
 dev, and the other for production. I am trying to decipher 
 the readme at

 this is implying.
 
 I would like to get all Tomcat messages (errors, etc) and my 
 actual logging all in either one or two files per webapp.
 
 
 Can someone please assist me in this? The readme just doesn't 
 cut it, or I am interpreting it wrongly. Or maybe there is an 
 example setup somewhere.
 
 Any info would be appreciated.

RE: Logging With Tomcat 5.5

Hi,

You don't change Catalina (for most purposes). Just change end part /webappname 
to your web application name, and yes, add it into the web application's log4j. 
E.g if your webapp was called banana

You would add (in addition to the root logger etc..) into 
webapps/banana/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties

log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost][/banana]=DEBUG,
 R

Blog: JK1.2 load balancing as solution to 100% uptime

2005-08-04 Thread Allistair Crossley

Hi Chaps,
 
If anyone is interested, I blogged last night on my experience setting up 2 
tomcats on 1 server and then load balancing them with JK 1.2, and tested that 
bringing 1 down, and then back up did not lose any requests. 
 
This for my web application is an ideal way to avoid downtime during class 
patching or full builds, although for those needing session replication, the 
blog does not cover that.
 
Take it or leave it :), I've also added this to the Tomcat links wiki.
 
Allistair

RE: Easy EL question

2005-08-08 Thread Allistair Crossley

Hi,

With what you supplied, the answer was the best you could have expected. The 
deletedDma item per loop iteration is of type MapEntry. This has getKey and 
getValue, hence why you can call deletedDma.key and deletedDma.value. 

In html your link would be

a 
href=/DMAAssistant/ChooseDeletedDMAToCancelRemove?id=${deletedDma.value.id}Remove/a

I am not sure if you can pass this into the html:link tag.

Try ...

// you don't need this block by the way
c:catch
  c:set var=deletedDmas 
value=${dmaAssistantSession.deletedDmasSimple}/
/c:catch


ul id=overviewDeletedDmas
  c:forEach items=${dmaAssistantSession.deletedDmasSimple} var=deletedDma

li
  html:link 
action=/DMAAssistant/ChooseDeletedDMAToCancelRemove
 paramId=id paramName=deletedDma.value paramProperty=id
 bean:message name=deletedDma.value property=label /
  /html:link

   Thanks for your answer !  But I'm afraid I dont really understand
 how to use it ...  Do you mean I should iterate on the keys of my Map
 ? But then the question is of course How do I iterate on the keys ?.
 
   Maybe I should be more precise in my example, so here is my actual
 code (which doesnt work).
 
 dmaAssistantSession.deletedDmasSimple is a Map of beans (id, label).
 The key to the Map is the id of the bean itself (but I dont use the
 key here).
 
 c:catch
   c:set var=deletedDmas 
 value=${dmaAssistantSession.deletedDmasSimple}/
 /c:catch
 
ul id=overviewDeletedDmas
   c:forEach items=${deletedDmas} var=deletedDma

 David,
 
 Thanks for the link.   I have followed the instructions but 
 unfortunately
 get similar errors to what I had previously I am afraid.
 
 In a situation like this I am sure I could get the company to 
 pay for some
 support for this type of problem, but I am unsure who would 
 be best to help
 with this.
 
 Without further help, I will have to sideline the upgrade to 
 5.5, until
 there is more info out there for the connecting using JNDI 
 with a MS SQL
 Server example.  
 
 In my opinion the people who develop Tomcat should provide an 
 example of
 JNDI for ALL major databases.  This is one of the things that 
 makes the
 Tomcat offering lacking somewhat in maturity.  It seems to me it is
 relatively easy to get the basic JSP / Servlet stuff up and 
 running in no
 time, but it has always been a hassle to get JNDI to work in 
 Tomcat.  The
 Tomcat folks provide MySQL and an Oracle example but they 
 need to provide
 examples for MS SQL Server, DB2 and Sybase.
 
 Thanks for your help though - as it may have worked...  :-)

 Hi All,
  
 I have just installed Tomcat 5.5.9 on our Dev Server.  I 
 managed with a bit
 of work and a few searches on the web to get Tomcat 4.1.x 
 working with MS
 SQL Server using JNDI and database pooled connections to 
 work.  This has
 been working well for some time now.  However, there is quite a few
 advantages for upgrading the current system to Tomcat 5.5, 
 not least of
 which, is improvements to the list and functionality of tools 
 that aid with
 Java debugging!
  
 I cannot get Tomcat 5.5.9 working with JNDI and MS SQL Server 
 at the moment.
  
 I have already read all the various official docs on JNDI how-to and
 searched the web but even after all that and changing various 
 things that
 others have recommended, I cannot get the JNDI to work.
  
 Has anyone out there successfully using JNDI with Tomcat and 
 MS SQL Server?
  
 If so please can you put another professional out of there misery!

  using JNDI?

  David,

  Thanks for the link.   I have followed the instructions but 
  unfortunately
  get similar errors to what I had previously I am afraid.

  In a situation like this I am sure I could get the company to 
  pay for some
  support for this type of problem, but I am unsure who would 
  be best to help
  with this.

  Without further help, I will have to sideline the upgrade to 
  5.5, until
  there is more info out there for the connecting using JNDI 
  with a MS SQL
  Server example.  

  In my opinion the people who develop Tomcat should provide an 
  example of
  JNDI for ALL major databases.  This is one of the things that 
  makes the
  Tomcat offering lacking somewhat in maturity.  It seems to me it is
  relatively easy to get the basic JSP / Servlet stuff up and 
  running in no
  time, but it has always been a hassle to get JNDI to work in 
  Tomcat.  The
  Tomcat folks provide MySQL and an Oracle example but they 
  need to provide
  examples for MS SQL Server, DB2 and Sybase.

  Thanks for your help though - as it may have worked...  :-)

  Hi All,

  I have just installed Tomcat 5.5.9 on our Dev Server.  I 
  managed with a bit
  of work and a few searches on the web to get Tomcat 4.1.x 
  working with MS
  SQL Server using JNDI and database pooled connections to 
  work.  This has
  been working well for some time now.  However, there is quite a few
  advantages for upgrading the current system to Tomcat 5.5, 
  not least of
  which, is improvements to the list and functionality of tools 
  that aid with
  Java debugging!

  I cannot get Tomcat 5.5.9 working with JNDI and MS SQL Server 
  at the moment.

  I have already read all the various official docs on JNDI how-to and
  searched the web but even after all that and changing various 
  things that
  others have recommended, I cannot get the JNDI to work.

  Has anyone out there successfully using JNDI with Tomcat and 
  MS SQL Server?

  If so please can you put another professional out of there misery!

  Many thanks,

  Best Regards,

RE: Has anyone used Tomcat 5.5.9 connecting to MS SQL Server using JNDI?

2005-08-11 Thread Allistair Crossley

Hi,

A) First, can you clarify which method you have opted for now of;

1.

TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/webappname/META-INF/context.xml

or

2.

TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/webappname.xml

B) Ensure your database JAR(s) are in TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib (not in your 
webapp lib).

C) Try something simpler ...

DataSource dataSource = null;
try {
  Context ctx = new InitialContext();
  dataSource = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(java:comp/env/jdbc/UKportalPool);
} catch (NamingException nE) {
  log.error(nE.getMessage());
} catch (NullPointerException npE) {
  log.error(npE.getMessage());
}

 Hi,
 
 You can only configure a web application in 1 place. You 
 can't use *both*
 context.xml AND a webappname.xml. I think the
 TOMCAT_HOME\conf\Catalina\localhost method is tried first, 
 and because this
 does not have any of your datasources in it you get your 
 problems. Decide on
 either TOMCAT_HOME\conf\Catalina\localhost\webappname.xml or
 META-INF/context.xml and see if you get any further first.

RE: Out of memory

Hi,

You can modify the memory settings for the windows service also in the 
service.bat file itself. I've been known to uninstall the service, modify the 
bat file and then service install again. I don't like using the binary version 
so that should work for you.

Secondly, OOMEs should be addressed by profiling (discussed lots on this list) 
not by throwing more memory at Tomcat (unless of course you have a valid need 
for all that RAM).

RE: Tomcat 5.5 upgrade + logging problems

Hi Robert,

The fact is that followed precisely the instructions do work. I *almost*
guarantee this because I walked through it just last week with a guy on a
vanilla Tomcat 5.5.9 install and I deal with Tomcat and logging daily.

The question is, what kind of logging do you want, because there are 2 types.
The old FileLogger was internal logging mixed with webapp logging. Tomcat 5.5
aims to decouple itself from a custom logging implementation and uses the
Commons Logging wrapper to allow developers to customise their logging output
in a more flexible and powerful way.

Therefore the developers did not do a *bad thing* as you describe, you are
simply peeved off that you don't understand the change. That's natural, noone
likes change, but change is inevitable if we are to do things better. Granted
that FileLogger was probably easier, but it was not as powerful or flexible.
And perhaps the logging page is not the most straightforward but it does work
when followed.

So now, if you want Tomcat core classes logging, i.e internal Tomcat logging,
then you need to have a log4j.properties file inside tomcat/common/classes and
*both* the log4j jar *and* commons logging jar in tomcat/common/lib. This
information in my view is not all that useful unless you're trying to get to
the nitty gritty of what's happening. More than likely you are more interested
in per-webapp logging.

If you want logging for a web application in particular, then you need a
log4j.properties in the webapp's classes folder and log4j jar only in the lib.

History on this list shows us that logging configuration issues like these are
almost always caused by something the user has misunderstood or done in their
customisation or web application.

As for the multiple virtual hosts with webapps;

log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost][/yourwebappname]=DEBUG,
R

You'll recognise localhost is a servername, so perhaps you could try using your
virtual host name and let us know if that works.

Cheers, Allistair.

Tomcat 5.5.10 Virtual Host example setup with log4j logging per host
===

I hope this can be of some use to those who are confused about how to add 
logging to Virtual Hosts in Tomcat 5.5 Series since the disappearance of 
FileLogger.

You will need to be able to configure DNS resolution for this example.

In this example I setup 2 Virtual Hosts each with their own web applications. 
Each
host gets its own log.

I cause an exception in one of the Virtual Hosts to show that its logging is 
directed
into its log.

Virtual Host DNS Entries


Create 2 DNS entries to the Tomcat target machine

tomcata.qas.com
tomcatb.qas.com

Tomcat 5.5.10

Download and unzip somewhere.

Virtual Host Web Applications
-

Create directories for the vhost webapps

catalina_home/webapps-a
catalina_home/webapps-b

Copy ROOT and jsp-examples directories from catalina_home/webapps into both 
webapps-a and webapps-b

Setup the exception test


Enter webapps-b/jsp-examples
Create file test.jsp and add into it

% throw new Exception(); %

Download and copy commons-logging.jar into catalina_home/common/lib

That's it. Start Tomcat and go into the logs directory. You should see all the 
new logs created with some default startup information. 

Now browse to 

http://tomcata.qas.com:8080/ (you should get the ROOT tomcat welcome page)
http://tomcatb.qas.com:8080/test.jsp (you should get an exception, check the 
tomcat-b.log

Summary

Note that this is virtual host logging, it is not webapp logging. For webapp 
logging you need to configure log4j within the web application itself which is 
another example.

 Hi Robert,
 
 The fact is that followed precisely the instructions do work. 
 I *almost* guarantee this because I walked through it just 
 last week with a guy on a vanilla Tomcat 5.5.9 install and I 
 deal with Tomcat and logging daily.
 
 The question is, what kind of logging do you want, because 
 there are 2 types. The old FileLogger was internal logging 
 mixed with webapp logging. Tomcat 5.5 aims to decouple itself 
 from a custom logging implementation and uses the Commons 
 Logging wrapper to allow developers

RE: Out of memory

You can also get OOME in development by causing restarts by copying class files 
or web.xml files into a running web application with reloadable=true and 
depending on how good you are at cleaning out your appliacation this leaks 
until such a point you get the OOME usually with PermGen error.

 Subject: Re: Out of memory

 You would probably be better served looking at what you can change in 
 the app so it does not require so much RAM.  It has been my 
 experience 
 that when I get an out of memory error it is because I was 
 forgetting to 
 close an object, or calling too many large objects globally, 
 or reading 
 in too much data into a result set.

 Of all my web apps only one requires the heap size to be 
 raised to the 
 512MB limit.  It loads multiple 1MB - 10MB overlays them on 
 one another 
 and then dynamically overlays a lot of font specific 
 anti-aliasing text.

 Unless the application is doing similarly demanding you would 
 probably 
 be better severed by debugging the app to see what is using 
 so much RAM.

 If you are making a development error like say forgetting to close an 
 object something everyone on the list has done it is always better to 
 learn of errors as early as possible so you do not carry it over to 
 other apps.

 A lesson I have learned the hard way.

 You can modify the memory settings for the windows service

 the bat file and then service install again. 

 Forget about a reinstall. Use regedit and go to

 and edit the JvmMx and JvmMs settings as your deployment requires.

 Tomcat (5.5) seems reluctant to load a .jar file from the WEB-INF/lib
 directory.
 Specifically, it seems to load tapestly.jar (as the error is displayed
 in a tapestry exception page), but it doesn't seem to want anything to
 do with cayenne.jar.
 The reported error is that a file in cayenne.jar is missing, which is
 plain wrong: when you unzip the .jar, it's there.
 Also, I've got another application that also uses cayenne.jar - on the
 same tomcat server - and it just works.

 Am I missing something here?

 Hi. I just has beginning to use the Tomcat, for programming in JSP.
 I have the 5.0 version.
 
 I make a web app that uses, in some jsp's files, the command
 response.sendRedirect.
 
 When i execute the pages locally in my computer, works fine, 
 but, i if try
 to
 test the pages from another computer, i get an error.
 
 This is the way i was executed the sendRedirect for test in 
 another machine,
 and always get an error:
 response.sendRedirect(http://localhost:8080/activation/obliga
 torios.jsp)
 response.sendRedirect(http://192.168.1.137:8080/activation/ob

 )
 response.sendRedirect(http://mycomputer:8080/activation/oblig

 I think that could be some context problems because, for make 
 the webapp
 structure, i
 copied one example webapp that comes with the tomcat, then i 
 deleted and
 renamed
 those files and directories that i dont use (off course, the

 What can i do ? Is there is some file where i must configure

 It doesn't like the agent_report_all_in_jsp classname.
 I'm guessing that's supposed to be the name of the servlet class 
 generated from the jsp. Are you sure it's correct? If it is 
 then you may 
 have to use a String argument instead of a class when calling

RE: Virtual Host Config Question

Hi,

Not sure about this one. How are you routing requests to Tomcat? Are you using 
the JK connector with a mapping of /*.do? Do you allow image to be handled by 
Apache/IIS or is Tomcat doing it? 
You may need to ensure your static resource uris like images reference the 
context name, e.g src=/unique/images/pic.gif

 Hello,
 
 I have configured two Hosts in my server.xml for two different sites.
 
 The one I am having issues with is as follows:
  Host name=www.theuniquepear.com appBase=webapps/unique/
unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false
 Context path= docBase=. /
 
 It actuall works well, but I am running struts application 
 and with struts it includes the context which is unique.
 
 So behind the scenes, (in the URL) I am getting something like this:
 
 http://www.theuniquepear.com/welcome.do
 which is really doing this
 http://www.theuniquepear.com/unique/welcome.do
 
 And things of course are getting screwed up. 
 
 Is there a way to get around that. I took off the /unique 
 under appBase but then it showed the default Tomcat page.
 
 Anyone been here before?
 
 Thanks

Hi,

It doesn't really matter if you did the app or not, it's irrelevant to this 
conversation and you asked a question.

Anyway, yes an awful lot has changed between 4.1 and 5.5 including the Jasper 
compiler, see the change logs.

However, I have tested your declaration on 5.5.9 and do not get this error 
therefore I think we can rule out the Jasper compiler.

%!
  static private org.apache.log4j.Logger logger = 
org.apache.log4j.Logger.getLogger(_5_jsp.class);

Have you definately cross-checked the class filename in the 
tomcat_home/work/Catalina/localhost/_/org/apache/jsp location?

 The question is: Why it runs perfect on Tomcat 4.1.30, and has issues

 Hi I was just wondering what the best way to setup tomcat to listen to
 multiple ip addresses is?  I have a box with 1 nic that has 3 
 ip addresses,
 the first address port 80 is in use by apache so I want it to 
 listen on the
 2nd and 3rd address.  I also need to have different webapps 
 be loaded for
 each of the addresses it is listening on.  From looking at 
 the conf file I
 was wondering if I can just create two connectors for each ip 
 address ie:

 Connector address=X.X.X.61 port=80
maxThreads=150 minSpareThreads=25 
 maxSpareThreads=75
enableLookups=false redirectPort=443 
 acceptCount=100
debug=0 connectionTimeout=2 
disableUploadTimeout=true /

 Connector address=X.X.X.62 port=80
maxThreads=150 minSpareThreads=25 
 maxSpareThreads=75
enableLookups=false redirectPort=443 
 acceptCount=100
debug=0 connectionTimeout=2 
disableUploadTimeout=true /

 And then in the engine create two Host elements:

   Host name=X.X.X.61 debug=0 appBase=webapps-61
unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false

   Host name=X.X.X.62 debug=0 appBase=webapps-62
unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false

 Would this work?

 Subject: Log4j writing to the same log file for different webapps
 
 
 Hi,
 
 I have a problem with Log4j. I have several webapps running on Tomcat.
 They all use Log4j. The problem is that they all log to the same file.
 The file they log to depends on which app is used first. It seems to
 be picking up the settings from the log4j.properties file of the app
 that is run first and using those settings for all the other apps.
 
 I have the Log4j.properties file for each application in the location
 --  tomcat/webapps/aplication1/WEB-INF/classes/
 
 Here is an example of one of the log4j.properties files --
 
 log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, vote
 log4j.appender.vote=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
 log4j.appender.vote.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
 log4j.appender.vote.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{dd MMM 
 HH:mm:ss,SSS} %5p [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n
 log4j.appender.vote=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
 log4j.appender.vote.File=/opt/tomcat/logs/vote.log
 log4j.appender.vote.MaxFileSize=100KB
 log4j.appender.vote.MaxBackupIndex=10
 
 
 An example of the code in the app is --
 
 //Create logger
   protected static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(voteLogger);
 
   /**
* Constructor for the DataAccessObject 
*/
   public DataAccessObject() throws SQLException, NamingException {
   logger.info(DataAccessObject() start 
 constructor method);
   initialise();   
   }
 
 Any help would be very much appreciated.
 
 Best Regards,
   Derek

RE: Advice for Hosting Many Individual Webapps?

we used to just schedule updates and let all our staff know there would be a 
small amount of downtime (for our intranet) but you can't do this on external 
production servers, so you need to go with either load balancing/clustering 
that allows you to close a node down *while also* letting sessions complete 
(e.g BigIP I think may do this). we have a semi-solution using mod_jk's load 
balancing/sticky sessions. Although closing a node does not wait until sessions 
are complete, mod_jk still detects the failed node and passes over to the next 
node gracefully. it's a 1/2 way house to a full solution that you can implement 
right away. for graceful close down (i.e sessions completing) you need 
something like BigIP or a commercial application server like BEA which does 
this for you. I really wish support for hot deployment got sorted out in 
Tomcat/J2EE servers in general. Although I am a J2EE die-hard I used C# .NET 
recently for a project and it beats the hell out of J2EE deployment, if we're 
not careful this will be a big win for .NET.

 I think I missed something here.  Are you not still bouncing Tomcat 
 here?  If so isnt the service still going down?  What is the 
 benifit of 
 changign the ports around?  I have a feeling I missed 
 something in the 
 expliation.

  edit the server.xml and run the HTTP connector on port 7080
  Change the shutdown port to 8006
  
  Start tomcat, and wait till it comes up.
  
  Re-run the firewall script to forward port 80 to port 7080.
  
  Stop the instance running on port 7080.
  
  The downside is that any active sessions get bounced and 
 have to re-login.

 Subject: Advice for Hosting Many Individual Webapps?
 
 Hello,
 
 We are finding outselves hosting more and more individual 
 webapps, all 
 running on Tomcat 5.5.9 w/ JDK 1.5.  Each of these webapps is 
 developed 
 and deployed on a separate schedule, and the number and 
 frequency of app 
 deployments is increasing.
 
 The frequency is so much that the uptime of all of our 
 applications is 
 affected as we continually take down Tomcat servers in 
 production to 
 deploy a new application (or new version of the application). 
  Because 
 hot deploy does not work (the old favorite OOM error w/ too many 
 redeploys), we bounce the Tomcat server for every redeploy.
 
 To avoid taking down all of our applications when we need to 
 redeploy a 
 single app, we've begun to deploy each application to their 
 own Tomcat 
 instance.  All of these instances are fronted by a single 
 Apache server 
 handling vhosts, logging, etc.
 
 We're just curious how common this setup really is.  We know 
 we are in 
 an uncommon position, with so many webapps (approaching 20, 
 and growing 
 very fast).  We don't want to put all our eggs in one basket, so to 
 speak, so we've begun to split out individual tomcat instances.
 
 Anyone else have to handle numerous webapps, with frequent 
 deploys, and 
 have to keep uptime for all apps as high as possible?  We 
 hesitate to 
 put all webapps in one tomcat, because to deploy one app 
 means we have 
 to take down all of our apps.  This is becoming unacceptable. 
  (not to 
 mention that a memory leak in one app will bring down all the apps 
 living in that tomcat instance)
 
 Any tips or tricks would be really appreciated.  Or pointers 
 to previous 
 material (I've found some, but nothing that jumped out at me).
 
 Thanks very much in advance,
 Seth

load balancing 2 tomcats on 1 machine question

Hi,
 
I thought I had this sussed but it seems I haven't :( 2 tomcats, 1 machine, JK 
to balance with stick sessions. The following configuration works in that JK 
routes requests to both the tomcats and so on. 
 
The issue is that if I look in the access logs for each tomcat I can see that 1 
session gets spread across both tomcats rather than staying on one. 
 
This question is ever so slightly related to a post earlier today by a poster 
who was seeing JK actually stay with the same tomcat, but still create a new 
session. My issue is that the requests do not stay with the same tomcat.
 
Is anyone able to suggest why this is?
 
Regards, Allistair.

Deploying ROOT.war indicates missing application web.xml

Hi Everyone,
 
Just been deploying ROOT.war into webapps and it's failing to explode. The logs 
indicate;
 
INFO: Deploying web application archive ROOT.war
22-Aug-2005 09:46:44 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig 
applicationWebConfig
INFO: Missing application web.xml, using defaults only
  ^^^
 
Yet, if I rename ROOT.war to ROOT.zip and open it in WinZip, the web.xml has 
been correctly packed by the Ant WAR task. Indeed if I unzip the WAR into 
webapps manually, the web application works fine and is packaged correctly.
 
I use an Ant WAR task
 
war 
destFile=${dist.dir}/${app.name}.war 
webxml=${webroot.dir}/WEB-INF/web.xml
duplicate=preserve
  
  classes dir=${classes.dir} /
  lib dir=${webroot.dir}/WEB-INF/lib /
  webinf dir=${webroot.dir}/WEB-INF /
  metainf dir=${webroot.dir}/META-INF /
  
  fileset dir=${webroot.dir}
include name=includes/** /
include name=resources/** /
include name=views/** /
  /fileset

/war
 
Any ideas why Tomcat is exhibiting this behaviour?
 
Cheers, Allistair.

RE: Java 1.4.2_08 and up breaks Jstl

If you do have com.jatse.api.User.getLanguage() then the problem is that 
language is null. Test with

c:if test=${empty person.language}
  language is null
/c:if

RE: Deploying ROOT.war indicates missing application web.xml

Hi,

Just to reconfirm, and also to take into account what you did in your test

0. Check server.xml for unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
1. I use Ant's war task to correctly war the web application package.
2. I clear Tomcat's webapps folder and restart for good measure.
3. I copy the war into webapps
4. Tomcat reports

INFO: Deploying web application archive ROOT.war
22-Aug-2005 11:14:02 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig 
applicationWebConfig
INFO: Missing application web.xml, using defaults only 
StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[]

5. I rename ROOT.war to ROOT.zip and open in WinZip to check file structure, in 
particular web.xml and to ensure that ROOT is not part of packaged paths.
6. I unzip ROOT.zip to webapps\ROOT
7. I make a request to the web application which succeeds including filters 
defined in the web.xml
8. Stop Tomcat
9. With WinZip, rezip the tested working ROOT folder contents
10. Delete webapps\ROOT
11. Rename ROOT.zip to ROOT.war
12. Cut ROOT.war onto Desktop.
13. Start Tomcat
14. Cut ROOT.war into webapps
15. Get same error.

INFO: Deploying web application archive ROOT.war
22-Aug-2005 11:14:02 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig 
applicationWebConfig
INFO: Missing application web.xml, using defaults only 
StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[]

Could the fact that my ROOT.war is 18MB have anything to do with Tomcat's 
ability to examine for the web.xml??? (wild guess)

Thanks, Allistair.

  INFO: Deploying web application archive ROOT.war
  22-Aug-2005 09:46:44 
 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig applicationWebConfig
  INFO: Missing application web.xml, using defaults only
^^^
  
  Yet, if I rename ROOT.war to ROOT.zip and open it in 
 WinZip, the web.xml has been correctly packed by the Ant WAR 
 task. Indeed if I unzip the WAR into webapps manually, the 
 web application works fine and is packaged correctly.
  
  I use an Ant WAR task
  
  war
  destFile=${dist.dir}/${app.name}.war
  webxml=${webroot.dir}/WEB-INF/web.xml
  duplicate=preserve
  
classes dir=${classes.dir} /
lib dir=${webroot.dir}/WEB-INF/lib /
webinf dir=${webroot.dir}/WEB-INF /
metainf dir=${webroot.dir}/META-INF /
  
fileset dir=${webroot.dir}
  include name=includes/** /
  include name=resources/** /
  include name=views/** /
/fileset
  
  /war
  
  Any ideas why Tomcat is exhibiting this behaviour?
 
 I just tried it by zipping and removing the ROOT folder, replacing it
 with ROOT.war. It gets expanded and deployed correctly.

RE: Deploying ROOT.war indicates missing application web.xml

Hi,

Yes, the default ROOT.war does appear to work in the way I have been trying to 
deploy my own ROOT.war, you're right there.

Nevertheless I will hold that there are a lot of potential differences between 
the empty default ROOT and an 18MB struts/spring/hibernate etc... real-world 
web application so I am not convinced just yet that it's my web application 
packaging (especially with the valid tests I have shown by manual unpack).

I will see if I can pursue the reason and come back to you.

Kindest regards, Allistair.

PS: thanks for the usual insult, i'd expect no less.

RE: Deploying ROOT.war indicates missing application web.xml

Hi,

OK, I've found the issue :( The Ant war task appears to have packed all files 
that were in the root of WEB-INF within a packed path of as web-inf (i.e 
lowercase) although not the classes which are packed within an uppercase 
WEB-INF.

Looks like the funny theory is funny afterall.

Cheers, Allistair.

  Hi,
  
  A) First, can you clarify which method you have
  opted for now of;
  
  1.
  
  TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/webappname/META-INF/context.xml
  
  or
  
  2.
  
  TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/webappname.xml
  
  B) Ensure your database JAR(s) are in
  TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib (not in your
  webapp lib).
  
  C) Try something simpler ...
  
  DataSource dataSource = null;
  try {
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
dataSource = (DataSource)
  ctx.lookup(java:comp/env/jdbc/UKportalPool);
  } catch (NamingException nE) {
log.error(nE.getMessage());
  } catch (NullPointerException npE) {
log.error(npE.getMessage());

   Hi,
   
   You can only configure a web application in 1
  place. You 
   can't use *both*
   context.xml AND a webappname.xml. I think the
   TOMCAT_HOME\conf\Catalina\localhost method is
  tried first, 
   and because this
   does not have any of your datasources in it you
  get your 
   problems. Decide on
   either
  TOMCAT_HOME\conf\Catalina\localhost\webappname.xml
  or
   META-INF/context.xml and see if you get any
  further first.

Alistair,

For configuration purposes I attach the
  Context.xml, web.xml and
mininPCO-practise.xml - which is the web
  application file 
which resides in
TOMCAT_HOME\conf\Catalina\localhost directory.


The error message is basically Cannot create
  resource 
instance.  (Full
Error message attached below.)


The Java code above works in 4.1.31, so I am not
  really 
worried about this,
unless Tomcat 5.5.9 works differently.



Here is the code snippet from the java class
  PortletHelper 
that is being
executed which produces the error at the end of
  this email.

Well I think that is all that anyone needs to
  check out my app.

If anyone can offer some good advice on this, it
  would be 
much appreciated.

Best Regards,

Ian

RE: jndi question

Hi,

The documentation says;

Context initCtx = new InitialContext();
Context envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup(java:comp/env);
DataSource ds = (DataSource)
  envCtx.lookup(jdbc/EmployeeDB);

However, we use;

try {
  Context ctx = new InitialContext();
  dataSource = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(java:comp/env/jdbc/yourdb);
} catch (NamingException nE) {
  // log somewhere
} catch (NullPointerException npE) {
  // log somewhere
}

Does that work for you? Allistair

  Yes you can use JNDI with out using JSTL.  But the only way to 
  configure it is to define the JNDI resources in the web.xml and 
  context.xml files.Technically you should be able to use the 
  globally defined JNDI resources in server.xml, and I have seen 
  configuration set ups doing it when googling.  But could never get 
  them to work.
 
  This highlights another area of seemingly unneeded complication in 
  Java/Unix development.  Using JNDI for data sources which 
 was supposed 
  to help you save time requires that you redundantly define the JNDI 
  resource in at lest 2 if not 3 places.
 
  The admin tool which was also supposed to help save time 
 defines the 
  JNDI resources in server.xml which does not really seem to 
 be all that 
  helpful.  I am sure there is likely a reason for this but I am 
  ignorant of it.  The admin tool is also supposed to let you define 
  JNDI resources  per context but it errors out when ever I 
 have tried it.
 
  My experience with the Tomcat Admin and Manager tools is 
 that they are 
  worthless.  Of the few steps they try to help with more 
 often that not 
  they just return errors when you need to use it.  I removed 
 them both 
  and have gone back to doing set ups manually and there has not been 
  much of a time difference doing it this way.
 
  Any way for JNDI to work you will have to add the 
 definition for it in 
  both web.xml and context.xml in the Tomcat 
  Folder/conf/Catalina/localhost/ folder.  This seems counter 
  productive since it makes your app less portable having the 
 data base 
  configuration details inside the context and by extent the WAR file 
  but it is what you have to do to get it to work right now.
 
  I feel your pain I know it is frustrating spending hours debugging 
  just the DB connection but todate that is the reality of 
 Java web app 
  development.  It is why I fear we will all be .Net 
 developers some day.

  Thanks for responding Dirk.  I've practically memorized the 
  documentation on the link you

RE: jndi question

If you could please send

1. server.xml
2. web.xml
3. context.xml or yourwebapp.xml
4. list of files in common/lib
5. list of files in yourwebapp/WEB-INF/lib

I'd be happy to see if I can spot anything.

RE: jndi question

Hi Sean,

It looks from a quick glance that your JNDI configuration is done globally, 
rather than in the Context configuration, and you do not link to it using a 
ResourceLink.

Try adding 

ResourceLink name=myLinkToAppJndi
  global=jdbc/appname
  type=javax.sql.DataSource /

Into the Context block, and remove the Resource block you have in there. The 
other thing to try would be to move the JNDI datasource Resource configuration 
block into the Context block.

See how you get on, Allistair.

RE: jndi question

Hi,

He isn't using that method of configuration, that's just 1 option of 3. He is 
nesting his Context definition within the server.xml Host element. Although 
this is now scorned, it's still valid. The 2 other methods are contextname.xml 
as you say, and also META-INF/context.xml within the webapp itself.

 Ok but do you have the resource defined in context.xml?  If you go to 
 Tomcat Dir/conf/Cataliana/localhost/ do you see a file 
 with the name 
 of the module ending with .xml?  If so is the resource 
 defined in that 
 file?  If not you need to add it.
 
  From the description it sounds like nothing in this set up has been 
 done as was show on the example page.
 
 http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-resources

 If you use the code block that is shown, define that resource 
 in web.xml 
 and context.xml it will work.  But multiple postings latter it still 
 sounds like the JNDI resource is not defined in context.xml 
 and the code 
 calling the JNDI resource differs greatly from the example provided.

  The error you are getting just means that that the JNDI

  In looking at the code snip it in the first post I am not

RE: Has anyone used Tomcat 5.5.9 connecting to MS SQL Server using JNDI and Connection Pooling?

Hey Ian,

Great that you got that working in the end. Did you find out what caused the 
issues? I'm not convinced you need to use the ConnectionPoolDataSource, since 
that's what DBCP is doing for you (I think - please someone correct me if I am 
wrong). You could try using javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource in your res-type 
and in the JNDI configuration, but I am not sure if DBCP will allow you to do 
that. Have a go. I just use the DataSource implementation and we've had great 
success and performance with it.

Cheers, Allistair.

 Hi Allistair,
 
 I just got the basic JNDI datasource working for MS SQL

 5.5.
 
 I tried using the ConnectionPoolDataSource instead of the standard
 DataSource but I cannot get this working.
 
 Not sure whether I need to replace the

 in the web.xml
 file.
 
 I changed the driverclass name from the standard datasource class of
 com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver - used with 
 standard datasource
 to the com.microsoft.jdbcx.sqlserver.SQLServerDataSource 
 class used by MS
 connection pooling in the

 file.  Also added the factory for PooledConnections -
 factory=com.microsoft.jdbcx.sqlserver.SQLServerDataSourceFact
 ory to the
 TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/webappname.xml file. 
 
 Any ideas to get the MS Connection Pooling working, or is 
 there no need in

 Many thanks for your help with this.

Hi again,

By the way, you really ought to consider *not* using the MS drivers. jTDS at 
jtds.sourceforge.net is more performant.

RE: Tomcat 5.5.9 missing jars ?

I don't think that's shipped with Tomcat 5.5.9. What is the error you are 
getting? Are you running your own web applications yet or just testing the 
default ROOT webapp?

 Hi 
 I downloaded Tomcat 5.5.9 (zip file as well as exe) and it seems to be
 missing the naming-common.jar.
 The documentation says that the file exists. I have tried 
 searching the
 mailing list, but could not find anything specific.
 Any information/pointers will be very helpful.

 Thanks

RE: Tomcat 5.5.9 missing jars ?

Hi,

It looks like you are another developer who thinks the transition from 5.0.x to 
5.5.x is just copying your webapp across. Unfortunalte you'll need to configure 
JNDI datasources in a different way in 5.5.x. Check out the manual pages to see 
how.

 Thanks Allistair for the information,
 I am running my own web application and it is already working 
 in 5.0.28
 When I try to run it under 5.5.9, the JNDI errors pop up.
 Unable to create resource instance or something like that.
 I see the naming-common.jar and naming-java.jar are missing 
 under common/lib
 folder.
 Now if these jars are not shipped with Tomcat, how does the 
 default java
 namespace in the JNDI work ?

RE: how to update tomcat?

Hi,

Not sure if there's a migration guide, but roughly

1. Download Tomcat 5.0.x or 5.5.x
2. Read the configuration guide for those parts you've configured in 4.1 to see 
how to do it in 5.0.x/5.5.x
3. Move your webapp WAR to the new webapps, make configuration changes
4. Test.

Your webapp *should* run alright itself, but it's normally the Tomcat 
configuration parts that stop smooth migration, so ensure you understand how 
you're configured in 4.1, e.g datasource, realms, hosts etc.. and make sure you 
do it the correct way in 5.0/5.5

Allistair.

RE: newbie with a short question

Hi,

I did this the other day with a bat file.

First I cause an open/save prompt with 

response.addHeader(Content-Disposition, attachment; filename=somebat.bat);

Then I use the response.getOutputStream() and stream the bat file down it. This 
requires of course that you get an inputstream to your bat file first. Copy it 
into your webapp somewhere and use the servlet context 
getRealPath(/bat/mybat.bat) and then i/o API to read it into an input stream 
before sending outbound again. 

I found that setting content type of application/msdos-x-batch failed, as did 
others, just send it without a content type as a open/save.

You'd do this in a servlet.

RE: system.property in web.xml

Hi,

This is not mandated by the Servlet specification. What you *could* do is write 
a servlet that is mapped in web.xml and set init parameters for that servlet. 
Also set the load-on-startup to 1. Then in the servlet init method you can 
extract the init parametes and call System.setProperty for each.

Client Deployer 5.5.11 NullPointerException

Hi,
 
I've decided to try out the Deployer tool for the first time to see if it makes 
like a little easier for deployments to our test servers. 
 
I've used the 5.5.11 Alpha Deployer as I noted some threads indicating a 
problem with 5.5.9's version. 
 
I've come across the following when running it pretty much out of box. I setup 
a deployer.properties file. Am I missing some kind of classpath or could this 
be caused by a file in my web application?
 
Regards, Allistair.

 No Java compiler available. With the deployer package, you're supposed
 to be using Ant+javac (given that Ant wants JAVA_HOME and likes a
 JDK). If not, add the JDT JAR that is in common/lib.

RE: Client Deployer 5.5.11 NullPointerException

Hi,

I'd really love to I assure you, but I really don't 

a) have years and years of architecting Tomcat development to trace through how 
Jasper2 works and 
b) the time whilst I am sat here working for a corporation trying to get Tomcat 
working for the business

For what it's worth (which is nothing I realise) I do realise that 
jspCompiler.init(this, jsw) is throwing the exception because the jspCompiler 
returned from the compiler = (Compiler) Class.forName(className).newInstance(); 
is null due to what must be a CNFE (looks like logging is needed there). I also 
see that this was why you asked me to copy the JDT compiler jar from common/lib 
into the deployer/lib. 

However, I did just that, and this still does not solve the resolution of the 
compiler class. Can I clarify that wnated me to copy 
common/lib/jasper-compiler-jdt.jar into deployer/lib? 

Finally, is it documented anywhere that deployer won't work out of the box? If 
not, I'd be happy to make a comment on the Deployer doc page.

Regards, Allistair.

 Great. Then go look in the code and try to explain the exception by
 something other than No Java compiler available.

RE: jndi question

Hi,

 The context.xml file is stored in META-INF during development 
 but needs 
 to be placed in Tomcat Folder/conf/Catalina/localhost/ folder for 
 deployment with the file name of the context path.

I don't think that's quite true. META-INF is a permanent valid location for 
context.xml, and does not affect deployment if /conf/Catalina/localhost/ does 
not have a file for the web application. We always keep context.xml only in 
META-INF.

However, if 2 are present this may cause issues as you say,

Allistair.

 Sean,
 
 One thing that stands out in your message is that the conext.xml file 
 was placed in the META-INF folder.  Is it also in Tomcat 
 Folder/conf/Catalina/localhost/ as the module name?  i.e. If the 
 context path name of your webapp is /seansApp the context.xml file 
 should appear in this folder as seansApp.xml.
 
 
 The context.xml file is stored in META-INF during development

  Thanks again to everyone who has helped me so far.

 The 2 other

  Ok but do you have the resource defined in context.xml?  
 If you go to 
  Tomcat Dir/conf/Cataliana/localhost/ do you see a 
 file with the 
  name of the module ending with .xml?  If so is the 
 resource defined 
  in that file?  If not you need to add it.
 
  From the description it sounds like nothing in this set 
 up has been 
  done as was show on the example page.
 
  http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-resources
  -howto.html
 
  If you use the code block that is shown, define that resource in 
  web.xml and context.xml it will work.  But multiple 
 postings latter 
  it still sounds like the JNDI resource is not defined in 
 context.xml 
  and the code calling the JNDI resource differs greatly from the 
  example provided.

RE: Client Deployer 5.5.11 NullPointerException

Hi,

Hm :( 

Are you able to clarify what you mean by a well configured Ant which is able 
to use a Java compiler. Perhaps this is where the problem lies? 

My Ant setup is such that I have ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME env vars set. I have 
ANT_HOME/bin and JAVA_HOME/bin on the PATH. The ant and javac commands work on 
the command line. I can run the Tomcat build script and many other build 
scripts with ant to build software (including Tomcat).

This for me looks like at least a configured Ant. Am I missing some link that 
you know of?

In terms of installing the deployer, I literally did the following:

1. Downloaded 5.5.11-alpha Deployer
2. Unzipped to c:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.11-deployer
3. Created deployer.properties, setting the 4 or 5 properties required for the 
web application
4. Moved to c:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.11-deployer
5. Executed ant compile
6. File copy works etc... but then I get the exception with the jasper2 task.

Then I got your suggestion

7. Copy jdt compiler jar frmo common/lib to 
c:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.11-deployer\lib
8. Executed ant compile

Same error occurs however. I don't _think_ I have done anything funny but you 
never know ;)

Your help is appreciated, Allistair.

  Hi,
  
  I'd really love to I assure you, but I really don't
  
  a) have years and years of architecting Tomcat development 
 to trace through how Jasper2 works and
  b) the time whilst I am sat here working for a corporation 
 trying to get Tomcat working for the business
  
  For what it's worth (which is nothing I realise) I do 
 realise that jspCompiler.init(this, jsw) is throwing the 
 exception because the jspCompiler returned from the compiler 
 = (Compiler) Class.forName(className).newInstance(); is null 
 due to what must be a CNFE (looks like logging is needed 
 there). I also see that this was why you asked me to copy the 
 JDT compiler jar from common/lib into the deployer/lib.
  
  However, I did just that, and this still does not solve the 
 resolution of the compiler class. Can I clarify that wnated 
 me to copy common/lib/jasper-compiler-jdt.jar into deployer/lib?
  
 
 Of course. No compiler is found, so you should add one.
 
  Finally, is it documented anywhere that deployer won't work 
 out of the box? If not, I'd be happy to make a comment on the 
 Deployer doc page.
  
 
 The deployer does work out of the box, assuming you have a well
 configured Ant which is able to use a Java compiler. So you did
 something funny :)

RE: Client Deployer 5.5.11 NullPointerException

Well that's really unexpected. The only other 2 differences are perhaps that I 
am on Windows, and that I did this with the 5.5.11-alpha download from the 
site. I can't think of anything else if you say that copying the JDT jar should 
work. It simply doesn't here and I have tested this with pure downloads with no 
interference or funny business.

I've been able to move forward with deployer by commenting out the jasper2 task 
in the build.xml file at least which is something, although I see that undeploy 
fails to remove all libs in the WEB-INF/lib which goes on to cause a redeploy 
problems, but that's anothe thread to be had ;)

It looks like I will just have to continue with commenting out jasper2 for now 
as I am simply out of ideas and I cannot reduce the problem any more, my Ant 
and Javac work well independently of deployer.

Thanks for your help, perhaps something will come to me, Allistair.

 I just installed and tested with 1.6.5, and it works too. I just added
 some debug logging too for the classloading exceptions.

RE: Client Deployer 5.5.11 NullPointerException

Thanks, that's good to know, it must be something to do with my environment. 
Are you saying then that you did not have to copy any JDT jars into your 
deployer? How have you setup Ant? In any specific manner?

Best, Allistair.

 I also tried it on Windows, also using the 5.5.11-alpha

 from the jakarta site. It works OOTB.
 So, if Rémy thinks there's something funny with your setup, I 
 guess he's 
 propably right.
