Tomcat Version detection
Hi there, I am running tomcat under linux, unfortunately can't remember whether it is 4.1.24 or 4.1.31, which made me relise, I don't know how to find out. When i look at the logs it jsut says Tomcat 4.1 unlike on windows where it actually gives the full version number. So where would i look to find the tomcat version? Regards Steve
Re: Serving files using tomcat
Ok thanks,
Well I have worked it out,
it turns out I needed the header
response.setHeader(Content-disposition,attachment;
filename=\report.pdf\);
added, this made it work.
So now the problem id that Internet Explorer flashes up the Open, Save,
Cance dialog box twice. Once the second one flashes up the first dissapears
so I am not too concerned. But wondering if this is a quirk, or have I done
something wrong.
My code is now
fis = new FileInputStream(rf.getPdf());
response.setContentType(application/pdf);
response.setContentLength(FileUtils.countBytes(rf.getPdf())); // may
be overkill thought it may be misreporting the file length.
response.setHeader(Content-disposition,attachment;
filename=\report.pdf\);
dos = response.getOutputStream();
int read = -1;
byte[] bytes = new byte[10];
while((read = fis.read(bytes)) != -1)
dos.write(bytes, 0, read);
dos.flush();
return null;

May not be critical but try using the ServletOutputStream instead of
OutputStream.
DOC URL:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/api/javax/servlet/ServletResponse.html
//Clear content of the underlying buffer in the response
//without clearing headers or status code.
response.resetBuffer();
response.setContentLength(output.length);
//Returns a ServletOutputStream suitable for writing binary data in the
response.
//The servlet container does not encode the binary data.
ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
os.write(output);
os.close();
Additionally, append pdf=.pdf\ to the URL.

I use this code and it works in my app. Their are small differences between
how we copy the data to the response output. I don't know for sure, but this
may account for why the fragment I posted works.
The difference is small, I think it would be worth giving it a try.

Serving files using tomcat
Hi, I have been looking around and haven't found a solution that works basically I have a PDF that gets created dynamically. Now to save memory I have the PDF written to a file rather than a ByteArray. The only way I can be sure that I wont encounter errors creating the file is to use File.createTempFile. The creation goes of ok. And I have checked the file itself and the PDF looks great. How do i now serve this to the user who has requested it. If I try to write it to the response (using the same method I use to creare dynamic image, this works), it just shows up a blank screen. The problem also is, even if it did show the PDF, acrobat, to my understand will read only chunks of the stream and will go pack to get more. Thisis a problem because there is nothing to go back for. So the point, If I can just redirect the browser to a file in the tomcat temp directory (can I do that, will the use have access to that directory), then how do I translate the location of the temp directory to a url that is accesible outside. If not then what other suggestions can people give me. Thanks in advance Steve

Re: Serving files using tomcat
Yes i see no difference,
I assume StreamCopier.copy() just does what my code does. I cannot find it
in any of the standard jars, so I assume this is one of your own.
Other than that everything else seems to be fine.
Oh well I am sure I will owrk it out

Proper way to open threads in a servlet
Hi there, I am concerned that opening a thread in my serlvet using new Thread(Runnable) style code, is causing a massive hang in my system. Basically what the thread does is email people to notify them of a change in an order on the system. I want the emails to be sent in a separate thread so that the user doesn't have to wait for this to complete to return to the system. Basically the email is a non crucial part, the action has already been performed. I know this isn't specifically a Tomcat question, but I thought I would ask it anyway. The two ways this could work is that the email is placed in a queue, that is checked periodically, or just somehow the email(s) are sent in the background, but without opening a new thread using code. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to do this. Yes I have been searching around, but haven't found much information.

Tomcat Hang on Linux (hangs the entire system)
Hi there, I am posting this in a few areas because I cannot pinpoint where the problem stems from. I have a standard Pentium III bases pc running linux. It has only 380 meg (or therabouts) of ram Using IBM JVM 1.4.1 and tomcat 4.1.18 (I know there are later version, but they all hang) I have 2 webapps running. One of them uses Apache to translate two different domain to the right ibay for it's content but uses the same code base. The second webapp is accessed, currently, using http://www.mycomapny.com:8080/MyApp style URL. The webapp just hangs. It will not load any pages, and when it hangs, both webapps hang. So I think this is a Tomcat or Java or Linux error. Once the hang occurs I cannot do a ps -ef as this also hangs. My only option is to reboot the machine. But it hangs half way and has to be physically powered off. We are going to put a new, more powerful computer in there, but for now I wanted to see if anyone else had experienced such a problem. Can you give me some pointers as to where to look for the source of the problem. This has happened before, and I got no information about it. I know it's a pretty vague explanation, but I don't know what more informationI can give you. The log files do not show any errors, and it never happens at the same point in the web application. At first I thought it happen when concurrent users logged in, but that's not the case either, and I have trimmed down the sychornicity management when accesing Singletons in my web app. Now I have been through all my code, and cannot find anything that should be causing an error. I have run the code under a number of different cirsumstances on my development machine (Windows 2000) and everything runs without a problem. Any help would be appreciated Regards Steve
pointing subdomains to different web applications??
Hi there, still looking through various news groups for the answer, but figured this was the best place. I have a number fo domains and subdomains on my system. They are set up properly on the server to be house in different information bays. What I want to know is, how do I configured tomcat to recognise say.. containers.mydomain.com and point it to a different web application to the one that www.mydomain.com points to? Is this even possible in tomcat? If it is, I would imagine it's a pretty simple answer, so hopefully someone there can help me out. Thanks in advance Steve
TempDir???
Hi there, I have been reading about ways to get Tomcat to write to a file. Basically I need to write a file, that only needs to be available while tomcat is running. It is used by a background process to dynamically configure itself, depending on what configuration tomcat is running on at that time. When tomcat shuts down it will delete this file, thus indicating to the background process to shut down also. My problem is, that in Linux I cannot just write to the /tmp directory. Is the javax.servlet.context.tempdir attribute set to a defualt of some kind or do I have to set it myself. If it is set to a default, how do I access it getServletContext().getAttributr(javax.servlet.context.tempdir) returns null. If I ahve to set it, what permission to I have to give the directory it is to be?

Downloading previous versions of Tomcat
Hi everyone Having had numerous hanging problems with Tomcat 2.1.24, and no confirmatio that any bugs that cause haging are solved in 4.1.27 we are trying to find a copy of 4.1.18 for Linux to set up and text here, as our production site hangs every couple of days. Having gone through all our code and made sure that we aren't the cause of the hang, we have found that it still happens for no apparent reason. Unfortunately, we can't find tomcat 4.1.18 anywhere, does anyone knwo where we can download a copy?

Tomcat 4.1.24 Jasper Compile Problem
Hi there,
I have this problem where Tomcat 4.1.24 doesn't let me compile the jsp's, I
assume, as you will se ein the error message, that tomcat has a problem with
there being spaces in the path to where it can find the JSP java code files.
in my case this is under the Program Files/Apache Group/Tomcat 4.1
directory.
the error I am getting is
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null

4.1.19 had this problem also, 4.1.18 doesn't though.
I figured I would see if anyone is aware of this problem, and a way around
it. Prefereably, that solution would not be move webapp to a path that has
no spaces in it.
I was hoping that the problem would be fixed in this version, yes i did
report the bug to apache.
The reason I need 4.1.18+ is because there is a logging problem with 4.1.18
and SSL
Any help would be appreciated

4.1.19 had this problem also, 4.1.18 doesn't though.
I figured I would see if anyone is aware of this problem, and a way around
it. Prefereably, that solution would not be move webapp to a path that has
no spaces in it.
I was hoping that the problem would be fixed in this version, yes i did
report the bug to apache.
The reason I need 4.1.18+ is because there is a logging problem with
4.1.18
and SSL
Any help would be appreciated
Regards
Steve

Question about detecting version
Hi there, This may be an off-beat question. Basically I am creating an installation application for my software, for some people who are going to demonstrate it. What I want to be able to do, is detect whether the correct version of Tomcat is installed on their system. The installer will only be used in a Windows NT/2000 environment. I being platform specific goes against the whole point of JAva, but this is a case where the guy doign the demo is all the way over the other side of the world. Have found some classes that will read the registry in a Sun Java environment, but Tomcat only lists the version as 4.1, is there a way to tell whether it is 4.1.1x as opposed to 4.1.1y etc?

Question about tomcat 4.1.19
Hi there, I reported a bug, in tomcat 4.1.18, to bugzilla. The reply I got stated that it was fixed in Tomcat 4.1.19, having not found a link to the binary for 4.1.19, I navigated tharere, and found an alpha release of it on the website. Does this mean it is still in development stage? Does anyone have any idea of it's stability? Not completely sure what alpha means, but assume, logically, it is the release before a beta release.

Tomcat hangs under SSL connection, Clarification of Problem I have been experiencing, really need help
Hi there I am having a reall problem with Tomcat. These are my specs Tomcat 4.1.18LE for JDK 1.4 (Also have a problem with 4.1.18 standard) Struts 1.1-b2 and naturally JDK 1.4.1 My application seems to work, without a hitch, until I implement the SSLext for Struts 1.1-b2 Then things go bad.

It turns out that the Tomcat loggin process causes this error. I have switched it off for now, but would prefer to have the logging go out to a file.

Here is a solution: If you are using JDK 1.4.1, you can use Java 1.4's native logging abilities. See java.util.logging. It is quite a powerful feature, and it uses a low-priority thread to do most of its work, so it might perform better than log4j. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Restrict access to JSP's/URL's
Hi there, I am using Tomcat 4.1.12 and Strut1.1-b2 (it think that's the struts version) anyway, I can see that Tomcat has a tomcat-users.xml file. This file, as I understand, can restrict access according to a the user-level. What I want to know is, is there a way to restrict access to the url/jsp's according to a dynamically retrieved user level. e.g. All our user login id's and passwords are stored in our database. In a similar table they have a role_cde attributed to them. Both these beans are stord in the session when someone logs in. Can I restrict access to certain actions/jsp's similarly to the way tomcat-user.xml is used to restrict access? better yet, is there a non container-specific way to do it. I would rather not code my own xml file, if there is already something built in to the architecture I have running.

Thanks. Will be doing that. What I was wondering is, is there anything built into tomcat to allow me to get say a security level of a certain action.

Restriction of access to action/JSP's
Ok I think I can pinpoint my question a bit more now. I know I need to code my own filter for this. What I need to find out, is, how does Tomcat decide which of it's users (in tomcat-users.xml) can access different actions. presumably there is a setting for the action itself. Or perhaps for a group of URL's if it's for the action itself, is there a way to access that actions properties in java. Does Struts ro tomcat store them somewhere, and can I acces the information from a filter. That way, I could check the user level, and decide what to do with the response.

I know I need to code my own filter for this. What I need to find out, is, how does Tomcat decide which of it's users (in tomcat-users.xml) can access different actions. Tomcat looks at the URL patterns in your security-constraint element(s). If the context-relative part of the request URL matches, it enforces the auth-constraint and/or user-data-constraint clauses associated with that security-constraint. Note that all of this is based solely on the original request URL -- security constraints are *not* applied on request dispatcher includes and forwards. presumably there is a setting for the action itself. Or perhaps for a group of URL's if it's for the action itself, is there a way to access that actions properties in java. Does Struts ro tomcat store them somewhere, and can I acces the information from a filter. That way, I could check the user level, and decide what to do with the response. Struts, like any application, can perform dynamic security checks in addition to those performed by container, by calling: * request.getRemoteUser() - to get the username of the logged-in user * request.getUserPrincipal() - to get the Principal object representing the logged-in user (advanced use cases only) * request.isUserInRole() - to check whether the logged-in user possesses the specified role name In particular, Struts uses the last of these method calls if you include a role attribute on your action definition. You can, in your own servlets and filters, do exactly the same thing if you want to. Note that there is no way for an application-level filter to dynamically define user and role information *before* the container applies security constraints. All of that happens before any user-level filters or servlets are ever invoked.

problem with servlet.jar
Hi there, I am using Tomcat 4.1.12. Everything was working fine. However to make sure that my webapp will work when installed elsewhere, I tried installing it on another machine. I installed Tomcat 4.1.12 JDK 1.4.1 and my web-app When I start it up I get the following message WebappClassLoader: validateJarFile(C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\CRMSoftwareApp\WEB-INF\lib\servlet.jar) - jar not loaded.

org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process takes too long
Hi there,
here is the situation.
I have a special List that cretes Html code as a java-bean is added to it.
This eliminates the need for an extra iteration when the JSP loads, to prepare the
HTML in teh page.
This List is kept in the Application scope, and is retrieved when needed by placing a
%=form.getList().getHtml()% tag in my JSP.
The problem I am having is that if the String that getHtml return is particularly
long, a line in
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(java.io.InputStream,
java.io.OutputStream)
seems to take a reasonably long time to process. This has not happened with the
previous versions of tomcat.
Basically it should only be doing an out.write on the String.
on the suggestion of someone in the Struts user mailing list, I changes to JSTL tags
and replaced
%=form.getList().getHtml()% with c:out value=${form.list.html} escapeXml=false/
this, I expected would do the same thing.
Hence the same holdup in the Method: apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process
Can anyone help expalin what might be the problem here, and how to avoid tomcat using
the method it is trying to invoke.
Unfortuantely I cannot find the source code for
apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process or the Sourcecode for Tomcat 4.1.12 so I
don't know exactly where it si sticking.
Any help would be appreciated

handling reload
Hi there, I have a problem with my web-app where I want to be able to just return to the surrent page if the refresh button has been pushed on the browser. I don't want it to go into the action at all in this case. I will give you an example of what my problem is. Say someone wants to signup a new member: when they click the link to begin, my version of a Token is set, this is a basically just an object that sits inthe session under an attribute name, say addMember. this holds a boolean as to whether it is open or closed, and a long representing the long representation fo the time this token was set. so anyway, when the click the link to add a member, it checks to see that there isn't already an open token in the session for the addMember procedure. if there is an open token, it throws an error. however if they begin and there isn't one, it sets the token. After performing this request, if they hit refresh in the brower, the action tests for the token, then, finding it open, it throws an error. Can anyway suggest a way to stop the action from being re-done on a refresh.

RE: port 8080
I had the same problem, check the services under control panel, you will most probably have something else using that port. I personally had IBM HTTP server using it. But it may be a database service, if you have one running. If you know what it is, and it is not essential to run, you can stop the process. otherwise you can change the port Tomcat uses. the settings can be found in the server.xml file. just search for 8080 and change the port.

Hi there I am using Tomcat 4.0.3 with sun jdk1.4, both which are supposed to allow hot swapping of code. Unfortunately it seems that when debugging the code swapping doesn't work. Is there an additional switch I should be using with the JVM When I used tomcat 3.3 the session would restart, but atleast it would let me change the code. With Tomcat 4.0.3 neither happens. Also the shutdown.bat file doesn't seem to shutdown Tomcat at all. Any suggestions Regards Steve Vanspall -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Troubles with the list: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Internatinalisation Question
Hi there
I have been dealing with this problem for the last few days
I am definately making progress now.
I found that the @ page tag actually works
the form receives information correctly, the only problem now is that the character
put when converted to rgular java character set, go in correctly, but the utf-8
representation of these characters are incorrect.
Obviously this is due to the fact that the character I am entering in do not have the
same character representaion in UTF-8 as they do in ISO-8859-1.
so
亞乽乨亪仮 gets converted to 亞乽乨亪仮 i UTF-8.
I understand that the above chinese character will not make sense I just picked them
out of the windows character set.
Now for the question.
are the chracter I enter in from the Windows Character Set program, the same as the
ones that would be entered in from a native chinese keyboard.
If so, why is the conversion not working,
If not, where can I get a program that will emulate the chracters that would be
entered, so as I can see if the problem lies in Windows or with my conversions.
My ultimate aim is to create in which I can set the language on the pages, but have
the code itself not have to be changed. This app would need to work in Thai, Chinese
as well as Western European Languages. My database is set to use UTF-8.
Any further help would be greatly appreciated

I have changed the meta-inf tag to set the charset to UTF-8.
Retrieving information from the database seems to be ok, however, all the

That's were I start feeling things are weird. I'm assuming here you
are entering data into a html form, ie into a text input or something
like that. Right?
What you are typing above, eg #12345; are html entities. I don't
expect to see them in data from the form. That's what's bothering
me. Data from a form is generally url-encoded, so any numeric
representations of characters are generally of the form %0B, ie hex
bytes with leading percents. Those the servlet api will deal with form
you -- modulo getting the encoding right so it doesn't mis-transcode
the bytes.
Are you posting the data or is the action a get?
What browser?
Do you specify a content type for the form?
Can you send me a copy of the form?
those aren't the exact integer, but that is the pattern.
now the character encoding filter in tomcat 4.0.3 is not doing anything with
these characters because it is reading them one by one '' '#' '2' '3' '4'
'4' '5' ';' and finding them to be normal characters does not try to convert
them.
I have then added to the request interception method (doFilter) and added a
method that strip the '#' and ';' from either end of the number. It then
creates and int out of the reamining string ('23445'). When I cast this int
to a char, it seems to come up with the correct character when I debug. This
is correct right up until I try to sonvert the string to UTF-8 or just enter
it into the database. It then becomes ''.
My questions are:
1. as I don't have a foregn keyboard, and am entering the characters in
using the Windows Character map; am I entering them in in a form that is not
the same as if someone using a chinese keyboard would enter them?
Don't know. Don't have access to Windows at the moment [between jobs
and run a MS-free home], and haven't used the character map. What's
it do?
One trick I have used in the past was to just cut and paste data from
a good page in the proper encoding. There are some nice example pages
at http://vancouver-webpages.com/multilingual/index.shtml that I've
used in the past. But, that's mostly native encodings. There are
some native and unicode samples at http://www.unicode.org/iuc/iuc10/ ,
oddly enough, the Unicode conference announcements are multi-lingual.
There is also a decent page at the UN. They have the Universal
Declaration of rights in every language known to man (just about literally).

RE: Authentication without using forms
We have a similar situation here. In our case we keep the bean in which you store this information, in session when they logon. You could just store the userid and password in session when they log-on and remove it when they log off. e.g. session.getAttribute(User Information, UserInfoBean); that's how the forms store there information when forwarding to other pages. -Original Message- From: Antonio De Lilla [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 16 April 2002 11:09 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Authentication without using forms Hi All, Please, if someone can help.

What browser are you using to submit the form?
Before you start getting parameters, you need to do a
request.setCharacterEncoding(UTF-8);
I couldn't understand from below if you're already doing that. Assuming that
you ultimately want the characters to end up in a utf-8 encoding.
If the browser url-encodes the parameters, (for example if this is an HTTP
GET request), you'll need to get a decoder to decode that and convert it
into regular UTF-8. I have a decoder in java, if you want it.
