Re: WAR files and Eclipse

2004-12-16 Thread Dwayne Ghant
I did as suggested but it didn't work . The ironic thing now is that scence
I tried that the user accounts /home/username/public_html no longer 
works to
compile jsp pages. I figure this is weird becasue I see the compilation 
.class files in
the $CATALINAHOME/work/Catalina/localhost/~username/classname.class, 
but
when I try to go to http://localhost/~username/index.jsp I just see a 
pure white page. No
matter how many time I reboot the server I get the same result

Does anyone else want to take a shoot at this or am I to give up.

put my

WAR
file for export looks like this:

Naturally, you are

6. Click on OK to close the Properties dialog.

to do is
this:
1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package

3. Choose 'Export to the war file sets in project

4. You should get a brief message that tells you
   

the operation worked.
   

Now, if you don't find Tomcat in the Properties

Re: WAR files and Eclipse

2004-12-16 Thread Dwayne Ghant
Yes you are correct. Thus far I have correctly configured 
Apache2.x/Tomcat5.x/mod.jk2 .
And it works pretty seamlessly. My attemps to get the the useraccounts 
working resulted in
me doing this:

Listener className=org.apache.catalina.startup.UserConfig
   directoryName=public_html
   homeBase=/home/
   userClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.PasswdUserDatabase/
Which did work!!!
The only objective  I was trying to achive after that was working; was 
too make sure tomcat
would unzip all .jar file in /home/useraccounts/public_html/ .
I thought this would be preatty simple.

If I am correct I do believe that the unziping funtionality is bound to 
the Host tag.  Allowing
only the appBase attribute to be used once per Host tag.
ex:
Host name=localhost debug=0 appBase=/var/www/html/
  unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
  xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false

So with that said I belive that I would have to set up another host.
Everyone out there: If I stand corrected please tell me ???
I LOVE IT WHEN I'M CORRECTED;  it simply means I'm learning something new.

It's actually very easy to do what you want to do.

Assuming you have correctly installed and configured Sysdeo, you will need
to tell Eclipse where the War file for your Tomcat project should be
generated. This is done on a *project* basis, i.e. you have to repeat this
step once for each Tomcat project you create but you will never have to do
this again for a given project unless you change the location where you want
the War file.

1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package Explorer perspective.
2. Right click for a context menu. Choose 'Properties'.
3. Within Properties, choose 'Tomcat' from the tree on the left.
4. Click on the 'Export to WAR settings' tab within the Tomcat properties.
5. Enter the path that tells Tomcat where to generate your War file. The
path name should include the file name of the War file. I normally put my
War files in a folder called 'war' directly beneath the project so my WAR
file for export looks like this:
D:\eclipse\workspace\MyProject\war\MyProject.war. Naturally, you are free to
organize your files differently.
6. Click on OK to close the Properties dialog.

Then, every time you want to regenerate your War file, all you need to do is
this:
1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package Explorer perspective.
2. Right-click for a context menu. Choose 'Tomcat project'.
3. Choose 'Export to the war file sets in project properties'.
4. You should get a brief message that tells you the operation worked.

Now, if you don't find Tomcat in the Properties tree or if you don't see the
'Tomcat project' option in the context menu, it means you probably didn't
configure Sysdeo correctly. Don't worry, it's not that hard to fix. Just let
us know and we'll try to help.

Hello All,

I am new to WAR files and eclipse.  Many searches on google bring me to the
sysdeo tomcat plugin, which I have installed.  I want to know if there is
some standard way to generate a WAR file for deployment.  I have found that
I can export a JAR file and change its name, but in the process the
directory structure is altered.  Maybe you even know about a better IDE than
eclipse for working with web-based projects.  THANKS in advance.

Daniel

I tried eclipse, but man was it hard to get configured properly. I 
wanted to use Eclipse/MyEclipse since I do Perl/C/C++ work as well and 
thought one tool that binds them all, yada yada yada.

I then tried NetBeans and it worked for my environment 'out-of-the-box'. 
It took zero configuration for me. I just pointed it at my existing 
source tree and it built its environment and ant scripts accordingly. I 
really like all of it's editors/interfaces better as well. I would 
rather use 2 tools (NetBeans for java stuff, and eclipse(or my older 
editor) for everything else) than jump through Eclipses' hoops for 
java/J2EE stuff.

Your mileage may vary.
