tomcat start up at boot time
Howdy, I'm hoping one or more of you can help me with this. I am running Tomcat 4.1.27 as a standalone webserver / servlet container on HP-UX 11. It starts fine when it is executed from the command-line. However, when it executes at server boot time it starts and runs for about 3 minutes and then it stops. The logs do not provide any data as to why it stops. It just shows stop procedures taking place. The process is set up in platform to execute as a non-root user. The environment variables are set up. Permissions are correct. Also the process will start as root at boot time without errors. I'd love any ideas you might have about the problem. Thanks, Carey
RE: Starting a different process for each java operation
Thank you for the response. No, tomcat provide no such features. You can accomplish this (I think) on a Java level (not OS-level) using the AccessController#doPriviledged approach. (See javadoc for java.security.AccessController for more details). Can you clarify something for me? You are referring to tomcat starting child processes and not changing the uid, correct? Another question - Can tomcat be run as another user other then root like httpd is?

RE: OT [was: Re: Starting a different process for each java ope ration]
Thank for this information. This very much depends on the platform tomcat runs on. On Linux and most Un*x-like operationg systems, no user except root (i.e. anyone with effective uid 0) may open ports below 1024. Hence, on these platforms, no other user can start tomcat on port 80, at least not without outside help. What native unix-programs (like apache) do is they meddle with the uid they are running under by the means of kernel function calls, dropping their root-privileges after they open port 80 and do other privileged stuff. Since I had no need for this myself, I do not know if there is any solution around that allows java programms to effectively do the same. Does anybody know if there is a solution that allows this?

Starting a different process for each java operation
If this is in the archives or docs, I'm sorry. The company proxy is blocking the tomcat site. Can tomcat be configured to start child processes for each java operation? A developer has a servlet that needs to change the uid for the process that runs it to do some shared memory operations. Right now when this servlet runs it is changing the uid of the root process for Tomcat which causes other servlets to stop working. This is bad. Is this something that I am supposed to configure in the server.xml or global web.xml? Thanks for the help.

...libjniGetString.sl already loaded in another classloader
Does anybody know what we need to be looking for? Thanks in advance. Carey, I have a servlet that uses the Native Interface facilities. It gets to a point and then tries to load a library that I constructed. At first it could not find the library, but I fixed that by stopping catalina, setting SHLIB_PATH to /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/webapps/esd/WEB-INF/classes and restarting catalina. It found the library fine the first time I tried to run it. The next time I tried to run it, the app failed, saying that ...libjniGetString.sl already loaded in another classloader I can't find how to make it unload the library or do anything else to make it run. I tried stopping and restarting catalina and it still gets the same error. Do you have any idea what to do?

You can use any of the scripts in /sbin/init.d as a basis - modify one as

Tim is right. In HP/UX there is a default start script (I
forget what it's called). You plug in the name of your
service and add any other stuff it might need. You define
you service as being active somewhere else. (I know I'm not
much help but it's been a while).
That way when it starts you get the [OK] message.

tomcat not starting after reboot or from cron

Everything works fine that way. To automate the startup after a reboot, I am using init.d with the startup script in rc3.d. However, nothing is happening. I'm not even receiving any errors in the logs. But I can immediately start it manually with out a problem. Also I can't stop and start tomcat from a crontab. I set up a stop and start script and placed them in the root crontab, but the time comes to stop tomcat and nothing happens then the startup script should be initiated a minute later but it is a mute point since tomcat didn't stop, but nothing shows up in the logs either way. Is there a parameter or something that I am missing for this to work? I am running Tomcat 4.0.4 (as a standalone server using port 8880) on Solaris 2.7.

I was actually wondering about that concerning the startup environment, but I didn't think it would be an issue for cron since it was the root crontab. I'll add it to the script and see what happens.

RE: tomcat not starting after reboot or from cron
Y'all were right. You were absolutely right! It was the environment variables. Once I placed the variables at the beginning of the script and exported them, the cron worked perfectly.

Without those, you won't get anything. They're probably being set just fine for you when you log in.

RE: tomcat not starting after reboot or from cron
Ricky, Actually, for my startup script that is in init.d, all I am doing is linking to catalina.sh. An ls -al of it look like this: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 53 Nov 12 09:01 tomcat - /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/bin/catalina.sh I have then placed a link to this in the rc3.d. I could have linked directly to catalina.sh from rc3.d, but for consistency I like all my startup and kill scripts in the rc#.d directories to link to the init.d directory. The link in the rc3.d directory looks like this: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 18 Oct 25 10:13 S55tomcat - /etc/init.d/tomcat An uppercase S signifies a startup script, and an uppercase K signifies a kill (or stop) script. This is the script I am using in the crontab: (I am sure many have come up with better, but this works for my developers) #!/bin/ksh # The script stops and starts the java servlet container JAVA_HOME=/bto/appl/apache/j2sdk CATALINA_HOME=/bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4 #CLASSPATH=$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JAVA _HOME/jre/lib/ext:.

Parse error in application web.xml
Instead of depending on the invoker servlet, I have added our servlets to the web.xml file inside of the app's WEB-INF directory. However, now I am getting the following error when I try to start tomcat with the changed web.xml: 2003-01-17 13:07:51 ContextConfig[/esd] Parse error in application web.xml org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The content of element type web-app must match (icon?,display-name?,description?,distributable?,context-param*,filter*,fil ter-mapping*,listener*,servlet*,servlet-mapping*,session-config?,mime-mappin g*,welcome-file-list?,error-page*,taglib*,resource-env-ref*,resource-ref*,se curity-constraint*,login-config?,security-role*,env-entry*,ejb-ref*,ejb-loca l-ref*).

RE: Parse error in application web.xml
That was it. Thanks I placed welcome-file-list element at the bottom and then grouped all of the servlet elements together and underneath it all of the servlet-mapping elements.

Classes not being found in app's WEB-INF directory.
Hi, I am running tomcat4.0.4 as a standalone on Solaris 7. Simple servlets that don't need any custom built classes run fine within the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/esd/WEB-INF/classes directory. However, servlets that are dependent on other custom classes will not run when all of the needed classes are found within the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/esd/WEB-INF/classes directory, but they do run when the dependent classes are found within the $CATALINA_HOME/classes directory. I don't understand. I thought by default it always looks in the WEB-INF/classes and WEB-INF/lib directories before looking anywhere else for needed classes. The fact that it does run is great, but since we have to have the classes in $CATALINA_HOME/classes the automatic reload function doesn't work. And for some reason stopping and starting tomcat doesn't reload the classes in $CATALINA_HOME/classes either. Does anybody have any ideas what I am missing? I know it has to be something in the configuration, but I don't know what. Thanks in advance for the help!!! - Carey - -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
