Order of context loading
Hi all, I would like to define the order in which web-apps are loaded. The order in which the contexts are defined in server.xml seems to be meaningless. Is there a possibility to achive this?

Re: Order of context loading
Hi QM and all others, I did search the archive. Among a lot of unrelated messages I found one about this. Unfortunately the statement therein is very vague, so I'm asking again. If it's been discussed so often, there should be something about this in the Tomcat documentation though. Using a second Tomcat is no option in my environment. Can a special order be achieved somehow else?

Tomcat does not accept new versions of jar or class files
Hi all, I've got a strange problem: Tomcat 4 does not use the new class or jar files I give it. Of course I restarted Tomcat, I even rebooted Windows. There is no way to make Tomcat use the new files. A colleage once had the same problem. After he had deleted the old class file, Tomcat reported a ClassNotFoundEx or so. Then he put the new class file - and guess what: Tomcat used the old one again. The colleage actually solved the problem by booting the Unix machine Tomcat ran on. Unfortunately even this does not work in my case now. Has anyone realized similar problems and does know what to do? Does Tomcat have some kind of caching directory? Or could it be the JVM that does some caching, in my case 1.4.2_02 from Sun? Thanks in advance. Andreas -- Sie haben neue Mails! - Die GMX Toolbar informiert Sie beim Surfen!

In the case at hand, Tomcat (obviously) has references to all the
servlets that it has loaded. Therefore, those servlet instances
cannot be garbage collected. Furthermore, any object that is
referenced by static or instance variables of your servlet class
can *also* not be garbage collected, because live references
still exist. Same thing for session attributes.
OK, this is obvious.

You don't have to do this. The otherObject's reference count is
increase by one when you assign it. When the method (service()
above) returns, the reference count for otherObject is reduced by
one. If the reference count is zero, otherObject can be garbage
collected.
What about the object instances, which
otherObject.doThisAndThat() creates? So far I've thought there
are no live references if otherObject gets gc-ed.
If otherObject creates local objects, they'll be GCed. If it
modifies static objects, those objects stay in a different place
anyways and don't get GCed when otherObject does.
Back to what Craig mentioned earlier: earlier in the Java life
time, classes could get GCed themselves. That really earns you
very little, so it was removed. Nowadays demands on classloaders
and their hierarchies can get very complicated, so re-introducing
class GC would be difficult anyways.
A JSP is compiled into a servlet and then loaded into memory.
Its bytecode is present only once, and takes up relatively little
space (usually). You won't gain much from destroying that
bytecode and de-allocating its memory. Same thing for normal
servlets obviouisly.
What you need to do is tune your garbage collection. With some
exceptions, full GCs shouldn't run all the time. Depending on
your collector, partial GCs can run all the time. You'd expect
that from incremental and concurrent collectors. If you're
running on multiple CPUs and have a parallel collector but only
one System.out log, you'd expect to see GC output there nearly
all the time.
So you should start playing with your heap (-Xmx), new generation
size and ration (XX:NewSize, XX:MaxNewSize, XX:NewRatio),
collector policy (-Xincgc, -Xconcgc, XX:UseParNewGC, etc.) and
other parameters to see which gives you the best behavior. Don't
-Xmx over the physical RAM size. See the VM options page at:
http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/VMOptions.html
One principle to keep in mind is that memory is cheap, or at
least considered cheap when it comes to GC performance tuning.
The java heap is greedy overall, and this is intended to
increaser performance. That's why it won't de-allocate space (and
never return space to the OS) until necessary with the default
mark/sweep collector.
Make sure to record your verbose:gc output between runs so that
you can compare behavior. This is not typically easy to tell by
instinctive feel.

The otherObject reference goes away as soon as the service()
method returns, so you don't have to actually release it
yourself. HOWEVER, you also need to understand what the
constructor of this class did, and what the doThisAndThat()
method did -- it's still possible for that class to cause memory
leaks which you don't know anything about, or possibly can't do
anything about.
What about the object instances, which
otherObject.doThisAndThat() creates? So far I've thought there
are no live references if otherObject gets gc-ed.
Let's look at a simple case and a complex case:
SIMPLE CASE: OtherObject has a single instance variable that is
initialized to a String:
public class OtherObject {
private String id;
public OtherObject(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getId() {
return (this.id);
}
}
In this case, the only reference to the String pointed at by id
is in this instance of OtherObject. Therefore, when you release
your reference to the OtherObject instance and the id string that
was passed in (because the service() method ended), both the
OtherObject instance and the foo String instance are available
for GC.
COMPLEX CASE: OtherObject is a little trickier in its
initialization -- it provides a factory pattern method that
creates at most one instance of OtherObject for a particular
identifier string. (This is a *very* common design pattern -- in
fact, Tomcat implements something sort of like this to ensure
that there is at most one instance of each servlet class.)
public class OtherObject {
// Private constructor -- use the factory method instead
private OtherObject(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
// Private instance variable -- one per instance
private String id;
// Public getter for the id property
public String getId() {
return (this.id);
}
// Static cache of previously created instances
private static HashMap cache = new HashMap();
// Factory method for creating OtherObject instances that //
guarantees to create only one for a particular id string
public static OtherObject getOtherObject(String id) {
synchronized (cache) {
OtherObject instance = (OtherObject) cache.get(id);
if (instance == null) {
instance = new OtherObject(id);
cache.put(id, instance);
}
return (instance);
}
}
}
To use the factory method, you'd say something like this:
OtherObject otherObject =
OtherObject.getOtherObject(idstring);
instead of:
OtherObject otherObject = new OtherObject(idstring);
and, no matter how many times you call this with the same
parameter value, you'd get the same instance back (basically a
singleton pattern with lazy instantiation).
Now, your otherObject reference still goes away at the end of
the service() method, right?
Yep.
So the instance, and it's string, can still be GC'd, right?
Nope.
There is still a live reference to each OtherObject instance
sitting in the static HashMap cache. Therefore, this instance
cannot be GC'd, even though *you* have released your own
reference to it. And, if the OtherObject class is loaded from
Tomcat's common/lib directory (for example), there is no way to
***ever*** GC this instance, because the public API of the
OtherObject class doesn't offer any way to clear the cache.
Note also that there is nothing that your servlet can do about
this -- you can't even know if its happening without consulting
the documentation and/or the source code for the classes you are
calling. But the code above will cause a slowly increasing

Re: How to start a standalone app from a servlet and pro
Hi, excuse me, you're right in one aspect. I realized it later that I didn't read the whole question. I just thought: OH AGAIN. But this doesn't make the answer wrong. If you're in a servlet, no matter where, you can get the ServletContext by getServletContext(). From it you can have for instance getResourceAsStream(/WEB-INF/file.properties). If this doesn't work you might have done something wrong, maybe with the slashes or so? If you're not in a servlet, make sure you pass a ServletContext from a servlet to where you want to have it. FileIO can be used, but it's not compatible with the spec. The servlet spec says you are not guarantied to have FileIO other than the temp directory and temp files. But also this has been said many times. However, if you know there is a file system, you can use normal File IO. What you need is the right path. You could pass it as an init param in web.xml. From the servlet's init() you can get the param with getInitParameter(nameOfParam). What do you mean by starting a standalone application?

I think this is a browser-intern thing. A person looking over your shoulder could read it. But IE will translate this into a just normal request.

Re: How do I get the absolute path of a file in a directory above WEB-INF directory of my web application?
If you're trying from inside a servlet or so, the getResourceAsStream works fine, as the path pass something like /WEB-INF/somedir/somefile.someextension. Try not to use getRealPath. See list's messages explaining the use of properties files. If you want to access a directory below WEB-INF from client side, Tomcat won't normally do. Everything inside WEB-INF is protected from client access. But I could imagine you could develop a servlet, which serves these resource if necessary. But you should rather not do this.

I think this sounds like an applet problem, which has nothing to do with Tomcat. You should now design your application to run as a normal applet. Package it and put every resource that it needs where I had described before. I don't know, whether I've understood you right. In case you only need to provide an applet without associated servlets, you won't need Tomcat. A normal web server, which serves static content, will be enough and probably the better performing solution.

Re: File Path Problem...
Hello, maybe you could save the absolute path inside a properties file or pass it as an init parameter in web.xml. For each location of your app you would have to set this path appropriately.

But if i try to access it thru relative path, for eg. ../data/xyz.xml, the tomcat will throw a FileNotFoundException saying that xyz.xml doesnt exist in SYSTEM-ROOT\System32 dir. The reason behind this is that the JSP is tring to access the file from where JVM was started according to Java Documentation, ie SYSTEM-ROOT\System32 directory where the Service Control Manager starts the Tomcat service which in turn starts the JVM.

Re: Java returns bunk date!?
Hi Josh, yes it is, but in my opinion it's a bit hidden. As starting January with 0 isn't what one would expect, it should be stressed more in the docs. in java.util.Calendar: public static final int MONTH Field number for get and set indicating the month. This is a calendar-specific value. The first month of the year is JANUARY which is 0; the last depends on the number of months in a year. in java.util.GregorianCalendar public GregorianCalendar(int year, int month, int date) Constructs a GregorianCalendar with the given date set in the default time zone with the default locale. Parameters: year - the value used to set the YEAR time field in the calendar. month - the value used to set the MONTH time field in the calendar. Month value is 0-based. e.g., 0 for January. date - the value used to set the DATE time field in the calendar. Andreas On 11 Nov 2002 at 10:15, Josh G wrote: Ah thanks.

Re: Is there any way to read the response headers in a filter in Tomcat 4.0.3 ?
Hi,
you could extend HttpServletResponseWrapper. You overwrite all
methods which you are interested in, save the values and call
the super method, so the underlying HttpServletResponse knows
them. Additionally you write getter methods, which return the
set values.
Example:
public class LocalHttpServletResponseWrapper
extends HttpServletResponseWrapper
{
public LocalHttpServletResponseWrapper(HttpServletResponse
res)
{
super(res);
}//constructor
public void setStatus(int sc)
{
super.setStatus(sc);
this.status = sc;
}//setStatus
public int getStatus()
{
return status;
}//getStatus
}//class
In your filter you receive a ServletResponse. Cast it to
HttpServletResponse. Instantiate your
LocalHttpServletResponseWrapper. Pass this new object to the
doFilter.
Afterwards you can use your getter methods. The caller of your
filter will have a normal ServletResponse.
Example:
public void doFilter(
ServletRequest req,
ServletResponse res,
FilterChain chain)
throws IOException, ServletException
{
HttpServletResponse hres = (HttpServletResponse) res;
HttpServletRequest hreq = (HttpServletRequest) req;
LocalHttpServletResponseWrapper lres
= new LocalHttpServletResponseWrapper(hres);
chain.doFilter(req, lres);
...
int status = lres.getStatus();
...
}
Good luck.

Hi Mehdi, you could get the resource stream from within a servlet's init() method (where you have a ServletContext) and pass it to the other object that needs it. I do it pretty similar.

Re: The right path; in more way than one.
Hi Ed, I'm not sure, what your question is. Let me try to answer like this: Tomcat will look for class files and jars in the various classes and libs directories. Read pathto/tomcat-doc/class- loader-howto.html to know exactly. You can have your application's directory anywhere, if you configure a context in server.xml. If you put it under webapps you don't have to configure a context. For deploying your app it's probably the best to use Ant. Read the app developer's guide (pathto/tomcat-doc/appdev/index.html) to get to know best practices of the development process. In case Tomcat complains about JAVA_HOME: In autoexec.bat it might be better to set the DOS 8.3 pathname. Go to e: and type dir to get to know the 8.3 name of jsdk1.4.0.

RE: Tomcat 'out of environment space' message
Hi Samantha, up to Win98 Windows loads c:\autoexec.bat during startup. No other autexec.bat is read. You can have more than one, but only the one in c:\ is processed. To run Tomcat you don't need the classpath variable as far as I know. As long as you don't need it for other purposes don't set it. In case you need it: I experienced that including . (dot - the current directory) makes life much easier, like for instance set classpath=.;d:\java For compiling webapps better use Ant or the facilities in your IDE (I like Eclipse very much). In both cases you don't need to set the classpath variable. Andreas Hi everyone Thanks to those who offered assistance for the 'out of environment space' mesg... it works ! :-) Would I have to set classpaths or is this done automatically on installation ? I reason I ask is because I see I have 2 autoexec.bat files on my machine.. one on c:\autoexec.bat and the other under c:\tomcat\autoexec.bat ... presumably one should only have one autoexec.bat file! I think I have 2 separate versions because I installed a different version of Tomcat on my machine and the autoexec.bat file was on that cd when I copied it across . I viewed the c:\tomcat\autoexec.bat file and decided to move the 'SET classpath' settings to the c:\autoexec.bat file , and it had disasterous consequences ...couldn't load Win98 ! I managed to salvage my machine , and restored the autoexec.bat files to their original format . The question is one supposed to have more than one autoexec.bat file and can I put all the settings in one file (I noticed that both files differ quite drastically) .

Thanks Tony ... I'll try this later as I haven't got it installed at my machine at work more worrying I think is how to set up the JAVA_HOME variable any ideas as to where I can locate more detailed info would be much appreciated ... For the out-of-memory you can simply add the following line to your c:\config.sys: shell=c:\windows\command.com /e:4096 This will then work for every DOS box. For setting the JAVA_HOME, add a line similar to the following line to your c:\autoexec.bat: SET JAVA_HOME=c:\java\jdk13~1.1_0 Make sure you use the DOS 8.3 filename format when setting the variable in autoexec.bat. To get to know the 8.3 filename open a DOS box, navigate to the parent of your java home and type dir. Then the filename will be shown in long and 8.3 format. To make it easier you could copy your existing jdk to a path like c:\java\jsdk131 and use this one for your JAVA_HOME setting. After all restart the computer.

There it says You can add the manager role to the comma-delimited roles attriute for one or more existing users, and/or create new users with that assigned role. So just add ,manager to one of those users. Then you can use this user for the manager app. For safety reason you should not use one of the predefined users but define a new user with role manager. After that you have to restart Tomcat. Hope that's what's needed by you. Andreas hi, I have installed TomCat 4.0.4 on W2K. Everything seems OK.

Hi all, does Tomcat really look into tomcatdir/server/lib? For me it seems Tomcat doesn't. On the one hand the original webapp /webdav runs without errors. On the other hand, when I deploy a class that extends the original webdav-class org.apache.catalina.servlets.WebdavServlet (located in catalinahome\server\lib\servlets-webdav.jar) I get an java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/servlets/WebdavServlet. When I then copy catalinahome\server\lib\servlets-webdav.jar into catalinahome\webapps\mywebdav\WEB-INF\lib I get a different java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/servlets/DefaultServlet. DefaultServlet is located in catalinahome\server\lib\servlets-default.jar. So it seems Tomcat doesn't look into the catalinahome\server\lib\ directory. But why then runs the original /webdav app? What do I do wrong? Do I have to tell Tomcat somehow to look into the catalinahome\server\lib\ directory when running my webapp? Or do I have to copy all needed files from catalinahome\server\lib\ to my webapp's lib-directory? I suppose this shouldn't be the solution. By the way: I'm running Tomcat 4.0.4 on Windows 2000. Thanks a lot in advance. Andreas Probst Brian, Tomcat looks for your classes under Tomcatdir/webapps/yourapp/WEB-INF/classes and Tomcatdir/common/classes and looks for your jars in Tomcatdir/webapps/yourapp/WEB-INF/lib , Tomcatdir/common/lib (and Tomcatdir/server/lib but you shouldn't put your stuff in here) Andy -Original Message- From: Brian Wolf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 11 July 2002 22:12 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: newbie - finding class files Hi I am having problems with servlets finding class files. On Windows 98 I have the classpath and path environmental variables set to c:\jdk1.4\bin and c:\jdk1.4 respectively. The Servlet works fine when converted to a command line application. -Brian --- Error: 500 Location: /examples/servlet/processOptions Internal Servlet Error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/java/util/collections/AbstractSequentialList at org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder.createContentHandler(SAXBuilder.java) at org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder.build(SAXBuilder.java) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
