Hi-
I'm trying to configure my tomcat 5.0.28 webapp so that one servlet (a
Spring dispatcher as it happens, but that's irrelevant) receives
virtually everything except standard static non-text file patterns
(*.css, *.png, *.gif, etc.) which I want served up statically.
I've been trying various
Using IP sounds a bit scary as a lookup - think of all the users with
equivalent IP addresses (because of NATing routers/firewalls, etc.).
Plus it would be a strikes me it would be a nightmare to test...
But, if instead you wanted to have a session that wasn't linked to
tomcat's notion of a
Hi Vincent -
one more idea... Have you checked Tomcat's server.xml for what port it
thinks it should be serving from?
I recently installed tomcat 5.0 on a FreeBSD box from a BSD-package* and
either because of the way the BSD-package was configured, or because of
some other check, Tomcat ended
Hi Patrick -
If not an iframe, why not a gif... There's nothing (in principle I
think*) stopping you having a jsp page that returns a (tiny, invisible)
gif (with the right mimetype) and with appropriate expires/cache-control
headers to make sure that it gets got each time. That's the way some
I'd just include this invisible gif on every page (request) of webapp B.
(bone-headed solution, but why get more tricksy until you need it).

Interesting solution Tim.. so webapp B would invoke this invisible gif
from webapp A on an interval basis?

Well, unless I misunderstood, the requirement is to keep the session for
webappA alive as long as the session for webappB is alive, so if webappB
is to be alive, then it must have new pages from the server (no need for
a refresh there. Then the webappB's pages (views) could include a

that sounds very useful, not something I've done before -- can I ask a
few questions -
1) how does one bind that into Tomcat -- declare a session listener in
(I presume) web.xml?
2) as I'm using Spring Framework, is this still relevant (or is there a
spring-specific way of binding in a

I'm not sure why having the the catalina-ant.jar in your ant libs folder
didn't work, but here's an extract from my build.xml, which works for
me. (obviously you need to set $tomcat.home somewhere - I tend to do it

Is it generally a good idea to develop on 1.5 - I actually like working
in 1.5 (generics, annotations, etc. all good stuff, despite some of the

This has been a great and informative thread... I'm wondering now, how

a Tomcat+Apache solution (sounds simpler).
The issue is that I want ALL directory-like urls resolved by a

Hi Didier -
I think it might be better to leave the body of the scripts as they are
but reassign the environment variables at the beginning of the script
(shell-dependant obviously). You might even (?) want to unset
JAVA_HOME/CATALINA_HOME globally and re-assign it on a script-by-script

I was just wondering if anyone out there had installed 5.5 on FreeBSD?

thanks for that, I hadn't realised that the servlet-name default would
still work in my webapp's web.xml. So I can reverse the logic as you
suggest. Works great.

I'm not an expert, but I believe (from experience previous googling)
that tomcat 5.0.x will respond with an exception
(IncorrectClassFileFormat or something) when it encounters class files
compiled with jdk1.5, and that thus yes you need 5.5.
There are some recent threads about migrating
Don't know about the difference, but a couple of potential workarounds:
1) could be to have your welcome page just be the default index.jsp and
have it just contain a redirect to the relevant page (but this will mean
a response-request roundtrip for your user).
2) alternatively you could

If you're new to tomcat, then I suggest you give a few more details of
where the webapp is, and where the jsp page is, and/or how you deployed
the web-app, just in case these give a clue.
