Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Tomcat 3.3 Milestone 1 - OTHER CP PROBLEMS!!!

2001-02-18 Thread Alef Arendsen

One thing related to this but not to Tomcat 3.3. I'm using Xerces and Xalan
and I have to place the Xerces and Xalan jars in the tomcat.sh/bat classpath
because Xerces has newer org.w3c.dom stuff in it. The old Tomcat 3.2.1 XML
stuff (w3c.jar) misses some methods and stuff...

This must be a well-known thing. I always thought the adaptive classloader
would keep up different namespaces for me so the Tomcat system classloader
doesn't interfere with the classloader of any webapp. But that doesn't seem
to work. So now each time I'm deploying a webapplication that uses Xerces or
Xalan I'll have to modify the tomcat.sh/bat. This is one thing I don't
really like because I'm delivering a development CD with a .war file on it
for deployment in any servlet environment. This one isn't just deployable,
nooo you'll have to modify the .sh file...

That's somehow kind of fucked. Does anyone have a solution for this or does
it get any better in 3.3


Then the last problem. I tried to use Cocoon under tomcat 4b and it wouldn't
work because of a sealing violation... Known to u guys???

Thnx in advance,

Alef Arendsen

   3) The new class loader scheme in this release ignores your
  CLASSPATH setting.
  Instead, you are expected to add needed jars to Tomcat's
  "lib", "lib/common",
  and "lib/shared" directories. See the "README" file in
  Tomcat's "doc"
  directory for details.
 
  This will probably stop me from ever going to Tomcat 3.3. Finding
  classes on the classpath is very convenient at development time.
 


 Well not that hard, Tomcat 3.3 by itself dont tries to respect your
 classpath, but because the  tomcat.(sh|bat) simply cleans classpath env
 var before starting ( and recall it when it ends ) tomcat.., but by
 itself dont takes any internal measure to do so, you can i.e construct a
 classpath and modify tomcat.(sh|bat) shell command to start command with
 a classpath of your own...

 The thinking was "if you are someone that knows to have a classpath you
 will knows too how modify tomcat.{sh|bat) to use it" to alleviate low
 end user problems when first using Tomcat 3.3.

 Your opinion is took into account for the 3.3 release..

 Thanks for the feedback.

Re: mailinglist vs newsgroup

2001-01-02 Thread Alef Arendsen

Well, I totally agree to this suggestion. Whether or not the solution is to
put everything in a newsgroup or to split up the mailinglist into several
subjects, I don't know. I think several mailinglists could solve the
problem, but maybe then people will be cross posting all the time...

Well, anyway, if the amount of emails a day won't be decreasing within the
month, I will be quitting anyway, because I cannot find any interesting
stuff in the mess of classpath problems, questions that have already been
asked a million times, etc...

wow, this sounds like a threat... anyway, it isn't...

grtz,

Alef

I agree I think this should be put into a newsgroup. Just today I have
gotten 70 emails from this group!

You can always browse the messages with Deja.com and you can post if you
setup a free account with them.


 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/02/01 04:00PM 

As long as it were "attached" to deja, it would be fine, but my firewall
blocks the news port, so I would be out of luck.  Also, I think that mail
serves a purpose that a newsgroup does not.  It seems that it's easier to
send a mail to a group for a configuration error, get an answer, and move
on without having to subscribe to a list or service.

No offense, but has anyone ever considered to put this whole mailinglist
into a newsgroup? We must be generating tons of traffic.

Re: Tomcat dies immediately under windows

2001-01-01 Thread Alef Arendsen

There was a discussion on this a couple of days ago...

what solved the problem was: http://www.geocities.com/jdrudnicki/

I think it had got something to do with environment space of command prompt
on Win98 or something...

Subject: Re: Tomcat dies immediately under windows


 More info:
   "tomcat run"  works fine. (runs in the same window)
   "tomcat start" fails. (separate window dies)

 Some environment setting must be missing in the new
 window.

  Problem:
* OS = Win98.
* Tomcat startup announces "it is starting in a new
  window".
* A window flashes up for an instant, and then
  disappears.
* No LOGS directory was created.
* After manually creating the directory, no log is
  written there after a retry.
* The process list does not show any instance of
  tomcat running
 
  I've set up Tomcat successfully under Solaris,
  so I'm somewhat familiar with the process. Obviously,
  I have some setting wrong, but what? How can I find
  out, or has anyone experienced a similar problem?

Initialization

2000-11-22 Thread Alef Arendsen

Hi,

How can I initialize Tomcat. That's the question.

I have this application which has to check if some stuff is in place after
it starts up. Also, it needs to cache a huge amount of data from a database.

I don't want to use the load-servlet-on-startup thing in web.xml. I just
want some extra init-class that will be run when I start the server.

Anybody?

thnx.
