Re: Security question about Multiple instances of Tomcat running as non-admin users on a single box

Why run Windows at all when you can switch to Linux and have all the command line goodness you were used to in Xserver? ;) That out of the way, Tomcat works basically the same on Windows as on Mac, except where running as a service is concerned. Yes, Tomcat will respect Windows permission settings, etc., just like any other Windows app. It should run under a non-admin account. You might have some issues allowing non-admins to start/stop the service however - if that is in your requirements. When all else fails, get you a Windows box and set Tomcat up as you'd like on it and see what problems occur when you try to use it the way you do now. It's called a pilot program.

Each app is secure in its own user account space and can't read or write outside of its user directory. An administrator can manage them as a whole using sudo.

Re: Exception running precompiled JSP
2011/1/22 Christopher Schultz ch...@christopherschultz.net:
c:forEach var=num items={1,2,3,4}
The above will produce four strings, {1, 2, 3 and 4}. There is
c:forTokens to explicitly iterate over a string.
When I invoke the JSP from my web browser, I get the runtime error whose
full stack trace is at the end of this post.
Basically, the error is this:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/jasper/runtime/JspSourceDependent
I checked, and that class can be found in CATALINA_BASE/lib/jasper.jar.
There are no instructions in
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/jasper-howto.html that suggest
that jasper.jar needs to be copied into the webapp's WEB-INF/lib
directory, and that seems dangerous anyway.
You are right, you should not copy it to webapp.
I have not tried to reproduce/debug your case, but it looks like a bug to me.
Best regards,
Konstantin Kolinko

I didn't really care what it did... I did notice that I get four
iterations through the loop, but that my c:out wasn't producing the
numbers... all I get is a literal ${num}.
I'll file a bug and attach my webapp.
You are right, you should not copy it to webapp.
Thanks for the confirmation.
I have not tried to reproduce/debug your case, but it looks like a bug to me.
Should be trivially reproducible given my webapp. I'll post back with a
BZ ref.
Thanks,

How can i upgrade the latest version in my live environment without affecting any data and configuration I usually use the zip distribution and 1) copy the necessary files and standard webapps, 2) clean the /work folder. That said, your mileage may vary. If you are hesitant it might be more convenient to uninstall previous version and install new one and reapply your changes. See archives of this list, this question was asked many times. Note: If you are using Nio connector, please wait for 6.0.31 (will be soon). There is a regression in 6.0.30 that can lead to out-of-memory errors.

But at the end of your message you write: We have too many instances to consider running each hosted app in its own vm. Well, why would you want to do that anyway? To increase application isolation? So do you have, say, three Tomcats, each in its own JVM, running under a user account of your choice, and each hosting, say, five apps? The biggest gotchas I can think of is can we get tomcat to run as a non-admin user and will tomcat respect ntfs file system permissions that should be setup for separate logs, temp files, etc.? Of course you can run Tomcat as non-admin. NTFS permissions is not something Tomcat may choose to respect or ignore, but something that is forced upon Tomcat by the OS. -- Michael Ludwig - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
writing logs on a separate server while the project as jar file
Hi, I am deploying my Java application on tibco server and this server has its own log configuration. When I try to write log on this server I have to write separate line of code into each java class I am having. So can anybody tell me what exactly is the best way to write logs to a different server log file, when your application will only goes in as a jar file over there. My team is not deploying it onthat server we are just providing the JAR file having logger statements.

My team is not deploying it onthat server we are just providing the JAR file having logger statements. First off, if you're only supplying a .jar file, you're not delivering a complete webapp, but rather just some (perhaps all) of the classes of the webapp. A webapp consists of more than just classes; consult the servlet spec for the additional spec-defined items such as WEB-INF/web.xml. Also, a complete webapp contains a WEB-INF/classes directory, where items such as logging configuration files may be placed. Second, I hope you're using an actual logging facility (such as log4j), not just blindly dumping things to System.out or System.err. All proper logging facilities provide for some means of configuring the level of the detail and the output location; whoever is creating the full webapp (of which your .jar is just a portion) has the responsibility of setting up the logging configuration appropriate for the installation. If you have been lazy and used System.out or System.err for logging, the person configuring the complete webapp can set swallowOutput=true in the Context element for the webapp. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
