Tomcat, by default, has symbolic links disabled. -----Original Message----- From: Peter Flynn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 July 2003 10:54 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Where to put java code
I'm running jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18 for the purpose of serving with Cocoon, and that's working fine. But I also have a handful of users who have small .jsp files, most of which are trivial (the files, not the users :-)...with one exception, which calls on a custom search bean. This was working fine under the old JServ, but I can't make it work under jakarta-tomcat. The error messages in all the localhost_log.YYYY-MM-DD.txt files say: > 2003-07-07 09:37:01 Error compiling file: > /usr/local/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18/work/Standalone/localhost/_/info/eol as/2002/3_11/search_jsp.java [javac] Compiling 1 source file > > /usr/local/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18/work/Standalone/localhost/_/info/eol as/2002/3_11/search_jsp.java:48: package ie.b2bsoft.eolas does not exist > ie.b2bsoft.eolas.SearchBean Search1 = null; > ^ so I've obviously put it in the wrong place, but the Class Loader HOW-TO at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/class-loader-howto.html says: > For classes and resources specific to a particular web application, > place unpacked classes and resources under /WEB-INF/classe of your web > application archive, or place JAR files containing those classes and > resources under /WEB-INF/lib of your web application archive. [presumably that should be "classes" in the second line], which is exactly where I *have* put the unpacked stuff. This server also runs regular Apache, and the JSP users all have regular HTML sites under the Apache docroot, so I have softlinked that docroot to ROOT in my jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18/webapps (yes, I know it's a horrible thing to do). In that docroot is a WEB-INF directory containing the classes subdirectory containing the unpacked classes thus: /usr/local/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/ie/b2bs oft/eolas: drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 12 2001 . drwxrwxr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 12 2001 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 1976 Oct 12 2001 HParser.class -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 1180 Oct 12 2001 HParser.java -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 3218 Oct 12 2001 SearchBean.class -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 2111 Oct 12 2001 SearchBean.java The error message refers to a "package" (by which it presumably means a jar file?) but the classes were supplied unpacked so I typed jar cf eolas.jar . in the classes directory and moved the eolas.jar file to the lib directory...still no change. What have I done wrong? (apart from not being a Java person :-) ///Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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]
