which connector directory?

2002-10-03 Thread Thad Humphries

In http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/ I find source for connectors in
jakarta-tomcat-connectors/* and in
jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.1.12/src/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.12-src.tar.gz 
Which am I supposed to use?  Are the connectors in the Tomcat 4.0
release directory being moved to jakarta-tomcat-connectors/* ?

Re: Problem with Tomcat 4.0.2 hanging

Tomcat 4.0.5?  4.1.12?

I was never able to get my application to work under Tomcat 4.0.2--JSPs
would constantly error on classpath problems.  But it's worked fine
under 4.0.1, 4.0.3, 4.0.4, 4.0.5, and 4.1.12.  I have no idea why.

putting workers2.properties in $CATALINA_HOME/conf

2002-10-02 Thread Thad Humphries

The docs
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/jk2/configweb.html)
says to put workers2.properties in
${serverRoot}/conf/workers2.properties, where ${serverRoot} is
something like /opt/apache.  And although the Installation section is
blank (did someone say documentation?), I figured out to put
LoadModule jk2_module modules/mod_jk2.so in my httpd.conf file.

So, I've got Apache 2 and Tomcat 4.1 working with jk2.  Great! 
Question:  How can I put workers2.properties in $CATALINA_HOME/conf and
get it read by Apache 2 (or 1.3) on startup?  On most installs around
here, the root user is responsible for everything under Apache and the
web app administrator runs Tomcat so I'd like to put workers2.properties
in the Tomcat tree.

Re: SSL and mod_jk Problems on Tomcat 4.0.5 + Apache 1.3.26 (onLinux RH 7.3)

I'm having a similar problem!  I have one web page containing a
jsp:plugin for an applet. If served from Tomcat 4.0.5, loads fine in
all browsers but if served from Tomcat 4.1.12, it won't see a parameter
in Mozilla 1.0/1.1/Netscape 6.2.  In IE 6, it's okay.  Moreover, the
generated HTML *looks* the same in all cases.

Has anyone else seen this?

Re: Documentation

I'll throw in what I can.  Most of my TC docs consist of URLs and
hardcopy that I've collected here and there from the web, along with my
notes.  Put me on your list...

If nothing else, it will help me to learn more aobut Tomcat...

On Mon, 2002-09-30 at 17:01, Robert L Sowders wrote:
 Since most of the questions to tomcat-users list concern installation and 
 configuration issues it demonstrates that there is a real need for Tomcat 
 to have a documentation project that it's users can contribute to. Right 
 now most of the documentation consists of the xdocs which are pretty good, 
 but can be so much more.  The developers obviously have little time to 
 maintain the present documentation and there is such an apparent need that 
 I wonder why a project for the documentation has not been started.
 
 There are many doc-projects out there to emulate.  I especially like the 
 one that the apache folks have running, the new xml documentation for 
 Apache 2.0 is probably the best I've seen. 
 
 I'm sure that many people would be willing to devote some time to 
 organizing and maintaining input from the community into a resource that 
 would benefit everyone.  I for one would be willing to contribute, but 
 right now there is nothing an nowhere to submit to.
 
 Should the developers of Tomcat initiate a project for the documentation? 
 Or should we?  The Apache folks seem to have solved this issue, it remains 
 to be solved for Tomcat.
  
 Have a look at some examples of opensouce projects which have solved their 
 documentation problems:

Re: The right path; in more way than one.

2002-10-01 Thread Thad Humphries

I know that Tomcat's docs *say* this and that the JSP  servlet specs
call for this but it has not been my experience!

As I have *twice* pointed out here (to no ones acknowledgement), I have
an application that runs fine under Tomcat 4.0.? but not under 4.1.12. 
It fails on objects in xerces.jar.  xerces.jar implements SAX1 and I
have always included it in my WEB-INF/lib directory thouggh it was in
common/lib of Tomcat 4.0.  I use Xerces/SAX1 (Xerces 1.4.2) with
xalan.jar (Xalan 1.2.2).

Tomcat 4.1.12 used SAX2 from xmlParserAPIs.jar in common/endorsed.  I am
getting failures from Xalan 1 because (evidently) Tomcat is sending
objects from here vs. the older Xerces in my WEB-INF/lib directory.

Yes, yes, I know that this needs to be updated.  However, the Xalan API
is radically different.  For now, conversion is impossible due to short
resources and no few customer complexities.

 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

 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. (Something with ~)
 
 Hope this helps.

Tomcat 4.1.12 doesn't use my applications WEB-INF/lib

2002-09-30 Thread Thad Humphries

I have an application written well over a year ago that uses Xerces 1.4
and Xalan 1.2 for its XML parser and XSL translations.  I know that this
will have to be updated someday but because of short resources and no
few customer complexities, we can't at this time.

The application runs fine under Tomcat 3.2.x, Tomcat 4.0.x, and WebLogic
6.1.  However, the older XML causes problems with Tomcat 4.1.  Here's
one case (for example):  Tomcat 4.1 seems to be using the
org/xml/sax/InputSource.class from
jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12/common/endorsed/xmlParserAPIs.jar vs.
myapp/WEB-INF/lib/xerces.jar's org/xml/sax/InputSource.class (efforts
to create a InputSource to create a Xalan 1.2
org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTInputSource error with Incompatible object
argument for function call).

We are using Xerces 2 for all newer applications and would like to move
up to Tomcat 4.1.  How can I run this older application in Tomcat 4.1? 
I'd rather not have to swap back and forth or run a 2d Tomcat.

Got it!

Gosh, how I love the bleeding edge!  I had to upgrade automake from 1.4

finally allowed jk/buildconf.sh to run without error and thus creating a
jk/configure that would run.  At last!  A jk/native/apache-2.0/mod_jk.so

Yo!  Any developers out there!  It might help to add a TOOL.txt file

Tomcat 4.01, IIS, and isapi_redirector.dll

2002-02-26 Thread Thad Humphries

I have found several sites for integrating Tomcat 3.2.x with IIS using
isapi_redirect.dll.  I find some for integrating Tomcat 4.01 with IIS
using isapi_redirect.dll.  The latter require creating
workers.properties and uriworkermap.properties (and maybe other things)
that aren't part of Tomcat 4.01 on UNIX (but were in 3.2).  Also, the
Tomcat 4.0 tree has a binary isapi_redirector.dll (**not**
isapi_redirect.dll).  Is *this* the warp connector?  How do I setup
Tomcat 4.01 and IIS to use this connector?  Is it a simplier setup than
3.2 was?

Re: configure script in mod_webapp source

2002-01-25 Thread Thad Humphries

Yep!  It was missing when I went looking.  I used the configure script
from the mod_webapp for Tomcat 4.0 (which I can send you if you cant
find it).

On Fri, 2002-01-25 at 15:38, Lars Andersen wrote:

 The README.txt mentions a ./configure script, which is not included.
 Is this an error or can this file be obtained elsewhere?

Re: mod_webapp building help

2002-01-23 Thread Thad Humphries

There is a README.txt file in the directory.  Use that to learn how to
point to apxs, etc.  

When I last downloaded the 4.0.1 source, the configure script was
missing.  I had to copy that out of my copy of the 4.0 source.

I built mod_webapp on Sun Solaris 2.7 just last week.  There were some
tricks in doing it.  First, I had to install a number of GNU tools on my
SPARC (I got them from http://www.sunfreeware.com/).  Second, I edited
the configure script (again, the one from 4.0).  I changed line 2505
from

if {TEST} i! ${local_target} = apr

to
if ${TEST} ${local_target} = apr

Lastly, I had to edit the Makefile.in to point to /usr/local/bin/libtool
since the configure script did not properly @@LIBTOOL@@.

All that finally built a mod_webapp.so for Solaris 2.7 and that has been
working for me with Tomcat 4.0.1.

source for mod_jk ??

2002-01-22 Thread Thad Humphries

Where can I download the latest source for mod_jk.so?

I once build mod_jk.so for Solaris to use with Tomcat 3.2.1.  I'm
testing an application in three Tomcat versions--3.2.4, 3.3a, and 4.01. 
I would like to build the latest version of mod_jk.so for 3.3a but I
cannot find the source.  I assume there are some difference between
3.2.x and 3.3a as the file sized under Linux are different.

Building mod_webapp on Solaris 7

2002-01-18 Thread Thad Humphries

I am trying to build mod_webapp.so for Solaris 7 (the mod_webapp Solaris
8 binary fails with library error on 7).  I've tried both mod_webapp 4.0
and 4.01 but get the same errors.  Can anyone help me?

BTW, I found *no* configure script in the 4.01 source to I've tried the
one from 4.0.  Also, I loaded this SPARC box with the latest Gnu tools
(gawk, m4, libtools, etc.) from http://www.sunfreeware.com/.

I start with a fresh build of Apache 1.3.22 using

./configure --shadow=/home/thad/apache_1.3.22.basic \
--enable-module=most \
--enable-shared=max

I then cd to my webapp-module directory and run

./configure \
--with-apxs=/home/thad/apache_1.3.22.basic/src.sun4u-sun-solaris2.270/support/apxs

which seems to run okay except (1) here are a number of APR configure:
 blanks and (2) near the end I see

Finishing up
checking for APR compilation flags... ok
checking for Makefile targets... /usr/bin/test[8]: lib: unknown test
operator
/usr/bin/test[8]: apr: unknown test operator
lib apr apache-1.3
creating ./config.status
creating ./Makefile
creating ./Makedefs
creating ./lib/Makefile
creating ./java/Constants.java
creating ./apache-1.3/Makefile

All done. Now you can issue make. Good luck.

So there appears to be some problem.  Make fails utterly:

$ make

make[]: Entering directory lib
make[]: Invoking make  build
make[]: Generating pr_warp_defs.h from
/home/thad/webapp-module-1.0.1-tc401/j

Current working directory /home/thad/webapp-module-1.0.1-tc401
*** Error code 1

Any ideas?  It doesn't seem that the Makefile built correctly. I see
several line like 

@$(MAKE) template MFLG=$(MAKEFLAGS) MDIR=$(APR_SRCDIR) MTGT=all

There is no 'template' target that I see. Shouldn't 'template' be the
name of something?  (Sometimes I think makefiles are like virgin
birth--too complex to understand to just accept them.)

Re: tomcat has to be restarted every few hours (resent, mailserver errors)

2001-09-12 Thread Thad Humphries

Eric--

I had the same problem--an application that ran fine in Linux (RedHat 
6.2) and would lock up on Solaris 2.7 and 2.6.  Both systems with JDK 
1.3.1, Tomcat 3.2.3,  Apache 1.3.20.  It would eventually stall and 
require restarting.  Sometimes it would go several hours.  Sometimes it 
would lock up on the 2d or 3d access.

I never conclusively resolved where the problem was coming from but I 
have seemed to fix it.  My index.jsp was loading a session bean and 
several frames that used the bean.  From the next exceptions that were 
being thrown, I guessed there was a race condition on loading the bean 
in  JVM on Solaris.  I rewrote the application to call the session bean 
only once in the initial index.jsp and its frames.  Since then it has 
run fine--repeated new user hits and no lockups.

The longer Tomcat is up, the more pages are affected.

Only solution is to restart Tomcat.

Re: File path question

You can do this with a relative path.  In other words, don't start it 
with a /.  For example, I have an application myapp in 
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/myapp.  If a JSP in myapp requests a Javascript, 
image, or anything else in the same directory, it's just 'script 
language=JavaScript1.3 src=./myscript.js' or 'script 
language=JavaScript1.3 src=myscript.js'.  If the requesting JSP was 
in a lower diretory, say myapp/test, the I use 'script 
language=JavaScript1.3 src=../myscript.js'

I've fallen back on telling the user in my documentation to use the

Word, etc.).

fine with Netscape and partly with IE. The problem is that IE obviously ignores

the file instead of downloading it.
How can I force IE to download the file?

Re: Solaris Problem

2001-08-22 Thread Thad Humphries

Roy,

I am mixed success with Tomcat and Solaris.

In all cases, we're running Solaris 2.7 (properly patched), JDK 1.3.1, and 
Tomcat 3.2.3 with mod_jk.

We've two applications.  Fortunately, our web product (a thin-client 
document imaging and workflow application) runs like a top.  My other 
application--a smaller, custom job--tends to hang on Solaris with Tomcat 
and I'm not sure why (works fine on Linux with Tomcat and on Solaris with 
WebLogic).  No crash, no stack trace, just stops running.  Other Tomcat 
served pages (like the examples) continue to work.

I asked yesterday about the possibility of the Tomcat hang being due to a 
race condition in the creation of session beans.  I got not response but

bean creation race conditions?

2001-08-21 Thread Thad Humphries

As I mentioned yesterday, I have an application that stalls on Solaris 2.7 
(properly patched) along with Apache 1.3.20, Tomcat 3.2.3, mod_jk, and JDK 
1.3.1.  It runs fine on Linux with Tomcat.

The application starts with an index.jsp file that requests a bean with 
jsp:useBean.  The index.jsp then loads two frames, both of which use the 
same bean.

I assumed that the index.jsp would create the bean before it loaded the 
other pages and this seems to be the case on Linux.  But could this be 
creating a race condition on Solaris that causes it to stall from time to 
time?  Do I need to relook these pages to see if there is a way around this?

Re: Tomcat 3.2.2 stalls on Solaris

2001-08-20 Thread Thad Humphries

Yes.  I installed all the patches.  Just now double checking myself, I see 
two libthread patches for 2.7:  106980-13 and 106541-12 or later and I have 
-16 of each.

Did you apply Solaris patches before installing JDK 1.3.1 ?
There are several Solaris patches to fix threading problems.
Check the patches tar file which comes with 1.3.1 and then list
installed patches, and see if you are up to date...

  My problem is with Solaris with Tomcat.  I've installed JDK 1.3.1 on
  Solaris 2.7 along with Apache 1.3.20 and Tomcat 3.2.3.  About the 3 time I
  access the application, it stalls trying to create a Timer in an object
  that we maintain in our session (the Timer tells the session object to
  periodically clean out things we keep cached in memory).
 
  The session code creation looks like this:
 
 public OasSession (
   OAS   pOas )
 {
   oas = pOas;
 
   timer = new Timer ( 60*1000, new ActionListener ()
   {
 public void actionPerformed (
   ActionEvent pEvent )
 {
   OasSession.this.purgeCheck();
 }
   } );
 
   timer.start();
 }
 
  If I comment out the timer code (leaving only the 'oas = pOAS;' it all 
 runs
  fine.  Leave it in, and Tomcat just spins--this method never exits.
 
  Interestingly, the application runs fine (without commenting out the code
  above) on the same Sparc box under with WebLogic 6.0 (SP2) and the JDK
  1.3.0 from BEA.
 
  Any ideas?  Is there a problem with threads on the Solaris' 1.3.1 JVM?

Re: Best IDE for Servlet Development?

2001-04-30 Thread Thad Humphries

I've tried several IDEs in Linux:

JBuilder -- free version; learning curve too steep w/out docs.  Never sure 
what was happening.

Forte IE -- **Powerful** but slow.  Editor so-so.  Couldn't sign jars from 
inside IDE.  Petty annoyances, like having to re-add files to JARs when 
rebuilding removed them.  Won't remember JAR contents.  Only one project 
open at a time.  Can *only* edit Java related files in you project (Want to 
check something in that C++ server program you're porting?  Sorry, can't 
open it.  Need to see another file?  Add it to package first.).

CodeWarrior -- Plus: Very like the Metrowerks Mac IDE which I cut my teeth 
on back when it was Lightspeed C  Pascal.  Multiple projects open at 
once.  Edits *any* text file in Mac, DOS, or UNIX format.  Minus: Like the 
Mac product! (I'd like a more Linux look  feel.  Leaves .AppleDouble 
directories everywhere.

SOLUTION:  Ant and the NEdit text editor.  Full control for whatever I want!

Hi,
I just downloaded the trial version for Forte for Java 2.0 Internet

integrated tomcat server.  I was wondering if anyone was using other IDE's 
for servlet development and if they had any thoughts about what was the 
best IDE and why?

Re: inputstream

2001-04-30 Thread Thad Humphries

I have found this differs between the JRE on the platform.  In my 
experience, BufferedInputStream in IE 5.5 (no plugin) would get corrupted 
so I had to read the full value returned by 
URLConnection.getContentLength().  With Netscape 4.7, no plugin, I read 
chunks as determined by BufferedInputStream.available().

I think the Netscape approach is how it should work.

What are the SSL environment params?  Are they specific to mod_ssl or do 
they apply in other SSL environments (like IIS)?

Re: mod_jk.conf-auto problem

2001-04-26 Thread Thad Humphries

You might check where mod_jk.so is located.  Though it reads

 LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk.so

in mod_jk.conf-auto, RedHat 6.2 installs all .so modules in /usr/lib/apache 
which is linked to /etc/httpd/modules.  Notice that 'libexec' is no part of 
this!

Without writing your own mod_jk.conf, you can create /etc/httpd/libexec and 
copy mod_jk.so into it.

JSPs and PATH_INFO

Is there any way to get a JSP to recognize response.getPathInfo() (a.k.a., 
a CGI's PATH_INFO) the same way a servlet does?  When I call 
http://localhost/examples/servlet/RequestInfoExample/blahblahblah I get a 
path info of 'blahblahblah' but if 
http://localhost/examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp/blahblahblah I get a 404 File

extension headers and SSL

2001-04-20 Thread Thad Humphries

Summary:  We've got Tomcat 3.2.1 with mod_jk.so working under SSL except 
for one thing (details below).  Any one have any ideas what might be missing?

Details:

We are developing a J2EE application with Apache 1.3.12 (and above) and 
Tomcat 3.2.1 on Linux and Solaris.  In places the UI relies on XHTML 
generated from JSPs, in other places on applets.  Several portions of our 
application uses HTTP headers to pass information between the JSPs and the 
applets:  The JSP will call

response.setHeader( "my-custom-header", someString );

and the applet gets this value by calling

URLConnection c = someURL.openConnection();
...
String  someString = c.getHeaderField( "my-custom-header" );

This approach is okay with the HTTP/1.1 spec as an extension header (para. 
7.1).  When I run this code one Apache-Tomcat, all is well--my applet sees 
what the JSP sets.

We've installed Stronghold 3.0 on a Solaris box.  Tomcat 3.2.1 has also 
been installed, configured, and tested with Stronghold using mod_jk.  The 
above method of passing information works fine with Stronghold only so long 
as SSL is not used.  Connecting via http:// works fine.  However, when 
connecting with SSL, via https://, the URLConnection.getHeaderField() 
method returns null.

Can anyone help us out here?  I think this should be allowable under SSL as 
it is without it.  Is there something I need to add to my configuration?

Thanks for your help.
