Comes from answering the same questions too many times ... :-)

There are DTDs for web.xml in the servlet.jar file.  There is no such
thing as a DTD for server.xml and there never can be -- see previous
discussions about this in the mailing list archives.

[Ricky Leung]

server.xml doesn't have a DTD, the web.xml's DTD is what that email was
about.

Craig, are you shure? I didn't find anything about Tomcat's DTD for
server.xml in common/lib/servlet.jar file :(

Ordering of attributes is *never* relevant, in server.xml or any other XML
document, unless you are using some really insane XML parser that actually
cares.  If you're using JAXP (as Tomcat does when parsing these things),
you get all the attribute values as what amounts to a Hashtable keyed by
attribute name, so you cannot tell what the original order was.

Ordering of elements is required (by the DTD) in web.xml, but not in
server.xml -- in general, ordering does not matter unless the objects you
are configuring depend on it.  However, correct *nesting* of elements is
absolutely critical.

There is no such DTD, and there never can be -- the set of possible object
implementation classes (and therefore the set of configuration properties
that are supported) is infinite.  For example, there is no way to define
the list of all possible attribute names for all possible 
implementations that anyone in the world might create.

Beyond this, nothing stops you from using extra elements that Tomcat does
not recognize, and parsing server.xml yourself.  As long as you
don't introduce any new nesting levels, Tomcat will simply ignore
these elements, because they don't match the patterns it is looking for.

RE: server.xml dtd

[Eric Everman]

Last I had heard there was not a DTD for server.xml.  My guess is that this 
is because new versions of Tomcat have new features that would need to be 
reflected by a new version of the DTD - which would quickly lead to DTD 
sprawl.  And probably no one wants to do it. . .

And the server.xml file is not part of the servlet spec since it is at the 
heart of *how* a vendor implements the spec rather then what spec they 
implement.

Cheers,

Eric Everman

RE: server.xml dtd

[Ricky Leung]

That's exactly what I did, in fact, I looked at every single .jar file that
was bundled with Tomcat and I didn't find a dtd that is for server.xml.  And
that's why I have to ask the list.

It is in the servlet specification, which you can download from:

You can also extract the DTDs that Tomcat uses from the servlet.jar file

The official copy is in the servlet specification, which you can download

For Tomcat 4, there is a copy of all the relevant DTDs buried in the

That looks like a very old 3.1/ early 3.2 era tomcat config DTD.

again, there is no formal DTD for server.xml and this one certainly isn't

server.xml does not use a DTD on Tomcat 3.2.1 
I would guess that you could use web.dtd or make a few slight changes to a
copy of it, since
server.xml is just a superset of web.xml info.

Well, I don't know about that, but Mike Slinn has some documentation
and a validator for server.xml up at http://tomcat.mslinn.com.  You
might need to poke around the links to find it.

Hi Jann,

I visited the site you mentioned below, but could not find the validator for 
the server.xml and web.xml you mentioned.  I am having trouble invoking a 
servlet from a jsp and think the problem might be in my web.xml.  So a 
web.xml validator would be great.  Are there any other sites out there that 
anyone knows of with validators for web.xml or server.xml.

Thanks in advance to all.

Re: server.xml / dtd

[Noel E. Lecaros]

Hi, Nathan

As far as I can tell, there was no server.dtd in TC3.2.1.  There is, however, a
server.dtd beginning with TC3.3.  If such a DTD is present AND is actually
being referenced in the xml file in question.  The server.xml file in 3.3 does
not reference server.dtd, so this DTD is probably not definitive.  I think,
though, that once TC3.3 reaches release build status, this DTD may actually be
used.  The only definitive "doc" at this point unfortunately, is the source :-)

Regards,
Noel Lecaros

RE: server.xml / dtd

[Jann VanOver]

Hi Nathan!

A good source that I went to to find your answer is
http://tomcat.mslinn.com/ .  This site has validators for both server.xml
and web.xml.  According to that site, "server.xml is an XML file without a
formal DTD or schema." He goes on to summarize what he has dug up about it.
Check it out!

Hi,

I'm just interested in what should / shouldn't be in the server.xml - I'm 
looking for a complete doc of what can be configured using server.xml - does

such a thing exist?

Cheers

Re: server.xml / dtd

[Nathan Coast]

thanks,

I've found web.dtd but this seems to be the servlet spec dtd for web app 
deployment descriptors (web.xml files) and not the server config dtd (server.xml).

Re: server.xml / dtd

[Hari Yellina]

why do you require DTD. To check whether it is a validate documet. it is ,u
dont have to worry much. One more thing it. If it is a XML file. You dont
neccesarily require a DTD.

Nope,

in the /conf folder, this is the web.dtd for validating web.xml
configuration files.
TomCat is not coming with a server.dtd, at least slocate was not finding
anything ;)

I'm searching for the server.dtd as well. It's not specified in the Java
Servlet Standard. So it must be something Tomcat specific.

Re: Server.xml DTD?

[Alex Fernández]

It seems there isn't. Well, Ok, there's a server.dtd that comes with the
distribution. Sadly, Tomcat never checks it out, since server.xml
includes a lot of evil stuff in the form of non-standard XML elements.

By this I mean that each Interceptor needs its own set of XML elements,
and that cannot be taken into account if it needs to remain open.
Tomorrow you may write a new Interceptor, it may need new XML elements,
and so the DTD cannot include any possible

It should be possible to change it, but it's a rather huge modification.
See the following thread for details:

 http://archives2.real-time.com/pipermail/tomcat-users/2001-January/020801.html

Un saludo,

Alex.
