RE: Giving access to an html file in tomcat
IE uses some voodoo logic to decide when to show it's own error page or not. Anytime it get's something other than a HTTP 200 or 302, it looks at the HTML returned with it, and if it seems to be a well-formed html doc, and/or exceeds a certain length, then it will show that HTML, else it decides to show it's own Friendly HTTP Error page ( which IMHO is completely useless to experienced and novice users alike, but that's beside the point ). You can turn off this behaviour in Tools-Internet Options-Advanced-Browsing-Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages And this will at least show you exactly what you are returning to the browser.

RE: Relationship between server.xml/Resource and web.xml/resource-ref.
Thanks Chris, but here is the part I don't exactly understand : The webapp signifies its desire to use that resource by including a complimentary resource-ref section in the deployment descriptor. A webapp ( at least under tomcat 4.1 ) does not require the resource-ref section to be in place, for it to use a jndi resource that is already defined in a resource section of it's context element. Is Tomcat just being nice about this ? Or is the point on the resource-ref to inform the container at deployment time, that the webapp requires such a resource to exist ? I think that's what the servlet spec is saying, but the English is a little muddled : These developer uses these elements describe certain objects that the web application requires to be registered in the JNDI namespace in the web container at runtime -Original Message- From: Christopher Schultz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2003 8:31 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Relationship between server.xml/Resource and web.xml/resource-ref. Florian, Is it completely up to the developers/deployers wether the necessary resources get declared in the server or in the application? This is correct. Is it just for convenience, so that deployer doesn't have to unpack the WAR? No, this has nothing to do with unpacking WAR files. Or -- like someone stated on this list (to my confusion) -- that the server.xml Resource element and the web.xml resource-ref have a relation that is similar to that of an implementation class instance and an interface? This is an apt analogy. The server.xml sets up the actual resource (often in the GlobalNamingResources section), then allows the application to use it (by adding a ResourceLink section in the Context where you want to use it). The webapp signifies its desire to use that resource by including a complimentary resource-ref section in the deployment descriptor. -chris - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
WebappClassLoader won't load resource from jar file ?!?
I have a web app containing resource files in several jar files, but I am unable to access the resources at runtime unless they are exploded into the classes directory. When trying to access the resource files using ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream( /meta-inf/com/kvasar/data.xml ) I always get null returned, even though that resource does exist inside a jar file in the web app's WEB-INF/lib directory. If I extract that resource to the classes directory, so I now have WEB-INF/classes/meta-inf/com/kvasar/data.xml, then I get it fine using the exact same path and ClassLoader - it works fine. The Tomcat Class Loader HOW-TO is telling me that it should find it in the jar. I have this problem on Tomcat 4.0.1 4.1.24, Win 2K The ClassLoader instance I am using for the getResourceAsStream() calls, is one that I get from one of my classes that is deployed to my webapp in a war file. Logging a toString() on this ClassLoader is shown below. Is it meaningful that it doesn't list my jar files in it's list of repositories ?? --- WebappClassLoader available: delegate: false repositories: /WEB-INF/classes/ required: -- Parent Classloader: StandardClassLoader available: Extension[javax.mail, implementationVendor=Sun Microsystems, Inc., implementationVendorId=com.sun, implementationVer sion=1.2, specificationVendor=Sun Microsystems, Inc., specificationVersion=1.2] delegate: true repositories: file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\classes\ file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\activation.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\catalina.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\jakarta-oro-2.0.2-dev-2.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\jakarta-regexp-1.2.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\mail.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\mailet.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\lib\xml4j.jar required: -- Parent Classloader: StandardClassLoader available: Extension[javax.mail, implementationVendor=Sun Microsystems, Inc., implementationVendorId=com.sun, implementationVer sion=1.2, specificationVendor=Sun Microsystems, Inc., specificationVersion=1.2] delegate: true repositories: file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\classes\ file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\activation.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\jasper-compiler.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\jasper-runtime.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\jta.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\mail.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\naming-common.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\naming-factory.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\naming-resources.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\pbclient.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\servlet.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\tools.jar file:C:\Tomcat.4.0-retired\common\lib\tyrex-0.9.7.0.jar required: -- Parent Classloader: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Help !

Subject: Problem with ConnectionPool on Linux
Hi,
I have o problem with Tomcat 4.1.24 on SuseLinux7.3. Our application has
Controller servlet (below) where using connection objects from
connection pool. When tomcat started, application working fine and
everything OK that day. But next day when we try to start application we
get error message in isUser method (PortalUserDB class). It's first
place where we use connection object in application. Method isUser is
very simple method for authenticate user (below).
We get this exception:
SQL Exception:java.sql.SQLException: No operations allowed after
connection closed
Connection object is not null in this case, and this message for me is
not correct.
Next, if I restart tomcat, everything working ok... (for next day).
On windows (we using windows for development platform) we have not this
problem.
What is problem?
Is configuration server.xml or similar configuration files on Linux
different rather on windows?
Note:
On both platform we using Tomcat 4.1.24 and j2sdk1.4.1_03.

How to persist web-app properties across restarts ?
I am looking for the most standard and lightweight way to persist some properties about a web application across restarts of the web application or the entire server. Something like the ServletContext.setAttribute() method, but with the persistence ability that you get from Http sessions would be perfect. I am using this for a management servlet that can indicate to load balancing software that traffic needs to be directed away from a given tomcat instance when it's in a certain state, and the management servlet needs to remember what state it was last in when it's application is restarted. Because it's used in monitoring I don't want any dependancies on external data stores other than simple file system.

Randy, Because you are doing an RequestDispatcher.include() the my.jsp page is served up in the same HTTP Response that is setting the cookies. my.jsp then looks in the Request for the cookies and doesn't find them there, because it's looking at the same HTTP Request that was originally sent to your login servlet. All the forwarding here ( or including in this case ) occurs on the server side. You need to do a round trip to the browser to set the cookies, so that they will be included on subsequent requests. i.e. something like : response.sendRedirect( /my.jsp ); This will send a 302 response to the browser, as well as the correct response headers to set your cookie values, so that they are included as request headers in the redirected request to my.jsp Steph P.S. for what it's worth I think the best explanation of all you need to know about HTTP methods, headers, cookies, etc.. comes in the first few chapters of an O'Reilly book called ASP in a Nutshell - just the thing for a Tomcat users list ;) -Original Message- From: Randy Paries [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 3:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: servlets and cookies Hello i assume this is more of a servlet programming problem that tomcat, but i hope someone has some insight?

Can I read file resources from a .WAR file at runtime ?
I have a web-app that uses several xml, xsd, and other configuration files at runtime ( including during the Application Init event ). We keep these files under various directories under WEB-INF so that we can get their paths at runtime relative to ServletContext.getRealPath( WEB-INF ). When I am deploying this web-app as a war file, I can detect I am a war file at runtime because ( getRealPath( ) == null ), but is there a consistent way to read a file from this war file ?

RE: redirect port 8080 to 443
You can have tomcat automatically make redirects to https ( and whatever port is configured in the redirectPort attribute of your http Connecter - 443 usually ), you can add some constraints in web.xml.

RE: Tools for benchmarking profiling Tomcat
Second half of this question is what is a good profiler to use with Tomcat ? I am currently using JProfiler ( http://www.ej-technologies.com/products/jprofiler/overview.html ) which plugs plays really easily with my current Tomcat install, BUT it's major problem is that it includes time that threads spend idly listening on sockets. So when trying to identify performance hotspots in a server app like tomcat, it becomes very difficult to get a good view of what percentage of time is spent where. I have seen JProf ( http://starship.python.net/crew/garyp/jProf.html ) but I am scared by the use of the terms C++ JFC on the intro page. Any other suggestions - especially for something that will work well with Tomcat understands how to treat time spent in the IO libs.

Subject: RE: Jasper, JSPC, Ant and Precompiling JSP's
That is EXACTLY what I am trying to do today. I've tooled around in the ant code,
and it seems this is more of a jasper
issue than
an ant one, because ant passes a long list of files to jasper, with the unwanted
pathnames that end up as part of your
package name.
I'm pretty sure if you used something like foreach to iterate through the same
fileset that is being created in the
jspc task, and
called jspc for each directory individually, and used the package=org.apache.jsp
attribute, then this would work -
because then
jasper wouldn't know about you're own subdirectory. But this seems ugly so I
haven't actually done it yet.
You can use the webapp element inside jspc, but then jasper doesn't know about
your exclude and so tries to compile some
fragment.jsp type include files, that are not really full jsp files, and so it
crashes on those ( this is my current
problem ). But
if all your included files are called .inc rather than .jsp then this may work.
jspc

So now I'm trying to make an ant step or task to replace the first line of every
generated _jsp.java file with the
correct package
name, between generating them and compiling them.
Plz met me know if you have something better.

Steph

Subject: Jasper, JSPC, Ant and Precompiling JSP's
Hello,
I've done my best to review the archives to resolve my problem, but I've
not found a solution there so I'm posting it.

RE: Jasper, JSPC, Ant and Precompiling JSP's
Mark,
I have a working solution for pre-compiling jsp, that I am using successfully with all
our tomcat installations. The target looks
like :
target name=jspc_preparse description=Use Jasper2 to parse jsp into java
mkdir dir=${webapp.workdir}/
jspc
srcdir=${webapp.rootdir}
destdir=${webapp.workdir}
failonerror=false
classpathref=jspc_parse.classpath
package=org.apache.jsp
compiler=jasper41
exclude name=**/WEB-INF/**/
exclude name=include/**/
/jspc
!-- Fix all the package names --
replaceregexp
match=^package org.apache.jsp.*;
replace=package org.apache.jsp;
fileset dir=${webapp.workdir}
include name=**/*.java /
/fileset
/replaceregexp
/target
I then use foreach from antcontrib to iterate over the directories and compile them
individually.
Tomcat seems to accept all the resulting class files at runtime with no problems.
Regards,
Steph

That is EXACTLY what I am trying to do today. I've tooled around in the ant code,
and it seems this is more of a jasper issue than
an ant one, because ant passes a long list of files to jasper, with the unwanted
pathnames that end up as part of your
package name.
I'm pretty sure if you used something like foreach to iterate through the same
fileset that is being created in the
jspc task, and
called jspc for each directory individually, and used the package=org.apache.jsp
attribute, then this would work - because then
jasper wouldn't know about you're own subdirectory. But this seems ugly so I haven't
actually done it yet.
You can use the webapp element inside jspc, but then jasper doesn't know about your
exclude and so tries to compile some
fragment.jsp type include files, that are not really full jsp files, and so it
crashes on those ( this is my current
problem ). But
if all your included files are called .inc rather than .jsp then this may work.
jspc
destdir=${webapp.workdir}
failonerror=false
classpathref=jspPreCompile.classpath
package=org.apache.jsp
compiler=jasper41
webapp basedir=${webapp.path}/
exclude name=**/WEB-INF/**/
exclude name=include/**/
/jspc
So now I'm trying to make an ant step or task to replace the first line of every
generated _jsp.java file with the correct package
name, between generating them and compiling them.
Plz met me know if you have something better.

Steph

I read somewhere that work had been done on my version (4.1.24) to
eliminate a naming conflict problem. I assume this is why there are now
package names on my _jsp.java files. I find that when I let
Tomcat/Jasper compile all my jsp's the java files *all* have the package
name org.apache.jsp no matter what their directory. I assume that my
compilation is conflicting with Tomcats because of the package naming
differences.
So, I've tried adding the following attribute package=org.apache.jsp
to the jspc task, but this results in even more problems because all the
package names now look like:
package org.apache.jsp.Bar;
and when they are compiled, they end up in a separate directory
/var/tomcat4/work/Foo/org/apache/jsp/Bar/Bam_jsp.java
RE: ANT tasks for management console
Look for catalina-ant.jar - probably in $TOMCAT_HOME/server/lib. Copy it to your
$ANT_HOME/lib.
We use these in our build files - I included the XML fragments from our build files if
they're useful ( obviously you need to define
a bunch of props used in these examples ) :
taskdef name=deploy classname=org.apache.catalina.ant.DeployTask /
taskdef name=undeploy classname=org.apache.catalina.ant.UndeployTask /
taskdef name=list classname=org.apache.catalina.ant.ListTask /

Hi,
Catalina 4.1.24 contains some ANT-tasks to call the management application to
deploy, reload and delete apps. Where can I
find these tasks to include them in my build?

RE: Suggestions ?
I assume any html type tags that may be included in the text, you would want rendered
as visible HTML tags in the browser. So use a
HTML encoding method. There doesn't seem to be a JRE standard for this, so something
like this will do it :
public static String HTMLEncode( String unenc )
{
final String[] tokens = new String[] {, , \, '};
final String[] replacement = new String[] {lt;, gt;, quot;,
#39;};
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(unenc);
for(int i = 0; itokens.length; i++)
{
int idx = 0;
while((idx = sb.indexOf(tokens[i], idx)) != -1)
sb.replace(idx, idx + tokens[i].length(),
replacement[i]);
}
return sb.toString();
}

Subject: Suggestions ?
Hi,
Am using tomcat 4.1.24.
Have a XYZ.jsp with a form on it take data from the user. Once the user
clicks submit the data is stored in the database and the data that the
user entered is shown to him on ABC.jsp.
The problem is that the user can enter anything in the text field and
text area of the form on XYZ.jsp. For example in the description text
area he or she might enter - text, an http url, maybe html tags etc.
Now when i grab this data from the form and store it to the databse it
works fine, but when i grab the data from the database and render it on
ABC.jsp it gets messed up because the html tags in the data interfere
with the html of the page. Is there a way in tomcat escape such
characters or are there java methods that i could use to pass this
string through that would do the escaping for me ?
Thanks.

Can I include jsp files that are in a JAR / WAR ?
Hi, I am trying to include jsp fragments that are located in an archive file. I have an environment, where several web-apps share a set of common include files, that each web-app statically includes, with the %@ include file= % directive. For the development version of this environment, I would like to be able to deploy the shared include files as a single jar or war file, that is then referenced by the jsp pages in the web-app - so that the include files are included directly from the jar. This is for neatness, and to avoid the possible confusion that would come from having multiple copies of the shared includes ( one in each web-app ) hanging around the development environment. I had hoped something like : %@ include file=/WEB-INF/include/inc.jar/fragment.jsp % would work, but fo course it doesn't. Any suggestions ?
