Re: JDBC Realms

2001-09-14 Thread Tim O'Neil

Its a group (or a set) of configuration data controlled
by your jdbc driver), its extended from an actual Realm
class, and it sets up a few tables in your data source to
hold data for a particular class of objects; for instance,
say you are doing some kind of session-based service- you
could set up a UserRealm, your security for this service
could a SecurityRealm, your beans could be kept track of
in a BeanRealm, etc. Its just a way to group a particular
bunch of properties together.

RE: file download servlet

The server sends a header that describes the file type.

  I have a file download servlet serves web browsers.
 
  request to file is like this
 
http://192.168.1.105/download/servlet/download?filename=song.mp3
 
  The file on the server side is song.mp3.  But the
  file
  got download to
  browser is the servlet name instead.  :(
 
  I heard i need to use the HTTP header
  res.setHeader(Content-Disposition,attachment;
  filename=\ +
  downloadFile + \;);
 
  Is Content-Disposition a standard header in HTTP
  spec?
   I heard i should use this whenever I don't want the
  content display on browser (force Save as Dialog
  box)
 
  Why everytime I download a file from the web server
  like song.mp3.
  there is no such HTTP header from web server? --
  Content-Disposition
 
  I think web server is just like a download servlet.
  It
  sends raw bytes to web browser. After browser get
  the
  bytes, It will not konw what name the file should
  save
  as.  Web server must send some kind of HTTP header
  to
  tell web browser what file name the file is saved
  as.
  right?
 
  How exactly is web server instruct web browser to

  save

  Subject: Specify outbound port on tomcat
 
  Hi List-
I'd like to specify what outbound ports are chosen when running my
  application.  Currently, I can specify the inbound port for SSL (443) to
  receive a message.  When my application responds, it (seemingly)arbitrarily
  picks a port between 1024 and (about) 5000 to send out the reply.
My client refuses to open up their firewall between 1024 and 5000, even
  though it is for the outbound traffic only, I must specify (restrict) the
  ports used for outbound traffic.  Is anyone aware if this is something that
  I could configure in Tomcat (or Apache), and if so, what is it?  (If 
 that is
  not possible to configure, please let me know also.)  Thanks for the help.
 

Tomcat (or Apache, or any other TCP based server) sends responses back on
the same port that it received your request on (in fact, on the exact same
connection).  Is your application itself generating outbound TCP
connections (for example, to connect to a database)?  Or is the arbitrary
port possibly the one created by your *browser* running on the same
machine and connecting to Tomcat?

Craig McClanahan

Not true in some cases. HTTP sends its response info on the same port,
protos like ftp open another port. (Which is the reason for http being
a stateless protocol, you need to open a second port to do things like
random stream access.) But that his application is wanting to open another
port has nothing to do with tomcat, or at least I doubt it. Is your app
a CORBA or JNI app by chance Joe?

Re: Content-Length limited to 2^31-1???

The problem I am having is that tomcat 3.2.3 seems to (kind of) limit

If I want to serve very large objects things do not work so well.

I seems that ServletResponse.SetContentLength(int) is the prefered manner 
to sent the content length of a servlet response and that the default 
implemtation for the HEAD method in HttpServlet also is limited to the 
range of int values.

My reading of the HTTP/1.1 spec does not indicate that there are any 
limitations to content length in the HTTP protocol.

So my question is:  Am I all messed up, or is Tomcat and the servlet 
spec/implementation sub-optimal?

The limit of an int is an int, right?
The setContentLength() method takes an int. What
do you want? Rather than try to stuff all your
data in one go you should treat it like the stream
that it is and feed your data into a buffer a blob
at a time, send that data down the pipe when you get
one full blob, and replenish the buffer with a new
blob of data from your source, like most anyone else
would do. Then you don't worry about how much data
you have to send. It could be gigs * gigs. Plus
you have the ability to resend any blobs (records,
frames) that get garbled on the way over, if any.

Much more efficient than trying to stuff your entire
wad down the wire.

You may not be doing anything wrong, I think that's how cookies
are supposed to work. Reading ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2109.txt
doesn't (to me) explicately say Servers within the same domain may
not share cookies, but what it does say is a particular server may set
a cookie that is only accessible by itself, which implies to me that
this is not allowed. The RFC also indicates past and present behavior,
and Netscape by name. It's entirely possible that while you were able
to do this before, it was taken out in later clients and servers to
comply with the RFC's final form. But like I said, I have a hard time
interpreting RFC's for particular questions. Maybe some one else has

It'd probably be a lot easier to simply up the Oracle configuration.
It's a little of putting the cart before the horse by attempting to
control the number of requests. If the requests exceed the capacity
of your web server the worst that happens is the excess requests get
things like 404's (I think). But an Oracle server crashing means you
probably have aspect of it's configuration set too low. Trying to
solve the problem by some how limiting the requests doesn't sound
like the optimal solution to me. You may be running the server with
default settings. Look at the config file and up whatever it is that
deals with connections to the data base and threads. I used to know

Can't do that. You can't have both processes use the same

The downside is that if your IP address does change (e.g. at reboot), you

caching.  But you did say you were more interested in technology than

A while ago I posted a question about a segmentation fault error I was 
getting with Tomcat.  The machine is SuSE Linux 7.1 and the application

a segmentation fault.  It turns out that it was aborting in the call to 
new DOMParser() in Xerces so it's not a Tomcat problem per se, but I still 
think it's worth mentioning what I found.

I have discovered that this is a documented problem (Sun Java bug database 
ID 4466587).  The problem appears when an exception is thrown inside a 
deeply recursive call and seems to be related to glibc-2.2-x.  I gather 
that glibc-2.1-x enforced a 2M stack size limit but glibc-2.2-x does not, 
but it can only handle larger stacks if it's compiled with 
--enable-kernel=2.4.0 .  The workaround is to set 'ulimit -s 2048' in your 
bash shell or 'limit stacksize 2048' in tcsh before starting the VM.  I 
have not tried recompiling glibc.

To add more possibly useless comments to this it seems like a good
idea generally to up the limits in the descriptor table for most of
the params in a production system. I myself have encountered a number
of problems that have been solved by increasing the number of file
descriptors for example. A lot of unices ship with a default value
of 64 for this; way to low for a production system. I typically edit
(or create) startup scripts that use the root shell (sh) to kick off
processes by adding ulmit command the increase the handles and descriptors
to various production levels that seem to be useful, it also helps to
know and be comfortable with setting the heap size settings in the jvm,
although I see in my 1.3.1 copy running on 2K the -mx and -sx options
seem to be missing...

May not be her fault. Even so, this doesn't happen to me. I only

No, regular users aren't supposed to have access to any

Before you mention it apache (and netscape and etc) can do it
because they run a native administrative process that runs
under root.

All you really need is to make sure your local
hosts table has an entry for localhost. If you
can enter a url of 127.0.0.1 and get what
you expect to see then you can map it to
localhost in the table. If not, then your
network layer would seem to be hosed.

Cantonese, the language spoken in Canton. I think its

Re: TOMCAT SUCKS

At 01:53 PM 6/27/2001, Nick wrote:
Hi guys,

I really think that TOMCAT SUCKS so bad. I'm not against the open source
community but this is why I think that TOMCAT sucks:

1. The documentation for Tomcat is so bad and it covers only the basic
server installation. HELL - usually for production purposes people have
load balancers, virtual hosts, etc.

The open source community doesn't have the resources necessary to dedicate
a team to maintaining documentation.

2. Virtual hosting for Tomcat is almost impossible - especially if you have a
load balancer in front of the web server.

In my opinion you shouldn't be using tomcat as your web server.

3. The integration with apache (using mod_jk) sucks. It slows down the
productivity of the web server with at least 1000%

Not even close to true. You must have one f'd up system.

4. And guess what is the hell you have to go through if your virtual hosts
have different servlets mappings. You waste time and you know - time is money.

Again, use Apache with tomcat.

5. And what if you have a problem that is not in the documentation (99% of
the problem with Tomcat are not even mentioned in the documentation)? I guess
the only way is to post in the mailing list. And guess what happens if nobody
has experienced this problem before? You have to start wasting your time
again.

See point 1.

I really think that TOMCAT is OK for testing purposes. Trust me - for complex
configurations it sucks.
If you want to use a good production application server - take a look at
WebLogic, Resin, Allaire JRun, etc.

Ha ha ha ha... how can you say JRun is a good production server with a
strait face? If they spent more time working on the code than using it by
taking all the flat file editing you need to do to configure it (like any
product of this type) and putting it all into a ridiculous gui that doesn't
make that configuring any easier they might shock me by having a real
product on their hands. And don't get me started on the rest of those.





Re: URL rewriting ad nauseum

Session tracking without cookies is a huge engineering mess.
I don't quite understand what your choice of server platform
has to do with it. Have you taken a look at the HttpSessionObject?

solely, I don't know much about HttpSession...)

At 08:55 AM 6/26/2001, you wrote:
My site *has* to track sessions whilst allowing users to disable cookies.

In development so far i've been using tomcat with apache (using mod_jk).
This isn't going to work for the real thing (bug #1388)  As far as i can
see and if i understand right, i have 3 options:

1) Use Tomcat standalone
2) Use mod_jserv
3) Use something else other than Tomcat

None of these appeal particularly, but in the meantime, I have to do
something... so:

Firstly, does anyone know of the approximate comparative performance
difference between tomcat standalone and tomcat/apache with mod_jserv?
(given that most of my pages are jsp pages...)  Is there a huge
difference?

Secondly, does anyone have any recommendations for (my least favourite)
option three? (sorry)

With many thanks for any advice,

RE: Odd Tomcat 3.3m3 Problem

2001-06-26 Thread Tim O'Neil

Routers and fire walls may have settings in them that
decide that a connection has been idle too long and close
it. We had a problem with an installed product (ours)
that kept having problems connecting to other components.
(Distributed app). After months of finger wagging and
getting chewed out by the customer and getting the threats
of pull outs and all that their particular make of Cisco
router had this setting set to kill those idle connections
by default. When we set the setting to ignore how long a
connection was sitting idle, the problem went away.

 in ajp12 you'll see a performance loss since Apache will loose

Yeah, but I figure that's better than what I'm getting now.  Based on
the logs, I'm guessing it's having to do a lot of that already with ajp13.

 Also did you have a firewall
 between Apache and Tomcat, something which could drop connections
 after a certain time of inactivity ?

Actually, you may have hit part of the problem here.  I do have firewalls in
there that could be shutting connections down and causing mod_jk to have
to cycle through connections more often than it normally would.  I'll look 
into
that...thanks.
