Re: tomcat and active x problem
Hi, i have an html page that has a javascript function that opens an outlook
mail window .the function is pretty basic:
function OpenOutlookDoc()
{try{
var outlookApp = new ActiveXObject(Outlook.Application);
var nameSpace = outlookApp.getNameSpace(MAPI);
mailFolder = nameSpace.getDefaultFolder(6);
mailItem = mailFolder.Items.add('IPM.Note.FormA');
mailItem.Subject=a subject test;
mailItem.To = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
mailItem.HTMLBody = bbold/b;
mailItem.display (0);
}catch(e){
alert(e);
// act on any error that you get
}}
if I run the file locally, with the url looking like: file://C:/things
are ok, page works, if I copy
the html page in one of my projects and run int like
localhost:8080/project/file.html I get an [Object error] alert..i
remember reading somewhere
about some problems using Active -x in tomcat.
First of all, this is entirely client side stuff, so it should not make any
difference if it is deployed on Tomcat, Apache, WebSphere or IIS. In this
script, there is no interaction with the server, whatsoever, so, it is not
Tomcat related in any way.
You should give us more info on the Object error you're getting, but I must
warn you - your problems are IE related and have nothing to do with TC, so you
may get help, but then again, you may not.

now, if u have outlook instaled, it should work. if u run the file
locally(right click open with IE) it should work. leave it unedited and move it
in a tomcat project and run it using localhost:8080/projectname/... and it will
alert you the exception. You might be right, it might not be a tomcat related
issue, but so far, I am using same browser, same code, and under tomcat it
doesn't work for some reason.so my first thought is that it might have
something to do with tomcat. anyway, 10x for the reply. About the Object error

Re: tomcat and active x problem
Hi, after searching google today for a couple of hours I found out what I think
was the problem. As you said, it was IE security settings.
I think there is a difference between running a file as local and runing it
from tomcat.(enters a different security level). So I modified the security
settings for
Initialize and script Active x control not marked as safe from disable to
prompt and it worked under tomcat as well.

Re: Help with TomCat 6.0 SSI
Okay, I've gone back to the beginning with this problem with the advice so far and reinstalled Tomcat fresh on a clone of my existing box with no web apps deployed yet. I think my initial diagnosis of something wrong with privileged app may have been off. I think my problem is (aside from being a new with Tomcat) is with the SSI filters themselves or something to do with them. If I go into my web.xml and simply uncomment the SSI filter and filter mappings, restart Tomcat, and try to go to the default page, I'm greeted with: HTTP Status 404 - / type Status report message / description The requested resource (/) is not available.

No, it means you've got something else wrong. Make sure your webapp's directory structure is correct by comparing it to the manager and host-manager webapps that come with Tomcat 6.0 (both of which are privileged). Once that's verified, install Lambda Probe (www.lambdaprobe.org) and bring up Tomcat. Browse to the Lambda Probe app (usually http://localhost:8080/probe), click on your webapp name in the left column, then the Context descriptor box on the right side. Make sure your Context element is shown correctly. If that's all correct, then you may have to fiddle with the conf/catalina.policy file, but I don't think that should be necessary. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

Re: Help with TomCat 6.0 SSI
Thanks for the clarification. I got SSI Filters all uncommented. Manager works now. I have Probe installed and working too. When I go to my web app I really want to get SSI working with and view it with Probe - under Context Descriptor it says Cannot find context descriptor of this application. The app I want to use didn't have a META-INF folder, so I copied it over the one from the manager app since it's already a privileged app and as the appropriate context.xml contained within. Same thing. Is it a problem with my web app?

Memory allocation
Hi, I'm setting up a Centos 5 server with Apache, MySQL and Tomcat 6 (jre 1.6). I think we have joomla on it as well. The machine will be used purely as a webserver running a tomcat app and maybe some static html from the apache server. Quite a bit of interaction with the MySQL server will be done. We have 2GB of memory in the machine. How much should I allocate to Tomcat and where/how do I do it? I suspect in the catalina.sh file? I am pretty new to managing a linux machine, so I am not familiar with the configurations. We'd like to optimize Tomcat's performance, but obviously need to find a balance where MySQL and Apache will have enough memory too. We don't have many hard stats about connections expected etc, so we want to start with a default configuration and memory allocation that will ensure all apps involved will have a decent chunk of the memory to work with, but not too little or too much.

Re: displaying an image from outside the webapps directory
Thanks for that Chris - very much appreciated,
I did manage to get it to compile but when I click on the link in my
jsp page everything appears except the image - and also no errors -
when I view source it includes the img line for the plot as so:
IMG SRC=/servlet/OpenFile?plot=/home/kimberly/Desktop/test/52-plot.jpg
align=left ALT=plot
My jsp includes it as this:
IMG SRC=/servlet/OpenFile?plot=%=plot% align=left ALT=plot
Then my serlvet calls the getParameter function to get the absolute
path to the jpeg I want to display in the jsp page.
I might have messed it up when getting it to compile - I was having
problems with the getMimeType method with messages like this:
/usr/local/jdk1.5.0_14/bin/javac -d ../../classes/ OpenFile.java
OpenFile.java:35: cannot find symbol
symbol : method getServletContext()
location: interface javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest
ServletContext application = request.getServletContext();
^
OpenFile.java:38: incompatible types
found : java.lang.String
required: java.io.File
return application.getMimeType(file.getName());
^
OpenFile.java:92: setContentType(java.lang.String) in
javax.servlet.ServletResponse cannot be applied to (java.io.File)
response.setContentType(getMimeType(request, file));
^
3 errors
I got rid of the first error by changing and adding these linesin the
getMimeType method:
ServletConfig config = getServletConfig();
ServletContext application = config.getServletContext();
But was still getting the other errors until I commented out the
getMimeType method and placed the above 2 lines in the else before
calling getMimeType - like this:
else
{
ServletConfig config = getServletConfig();
ServletContext application = config.getServletContext();
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
response.setContentType(application.getMimeType(file.getName()));
response.setHeader(Content-Type,String.valueOf(file.length()));
response.setHeader(Content-Disposition,attachment;
filename=+ file.getName());
sendFile(file, response);
}
So now I'm not sure if it's a problem with the way I'm calling it or
if I've messed it up with the changes I've made to it. I've checked
the logs and nothing - no errors there either.
Thanks for all the assistance with this.

WIFI custom web application
Hi Thnx for the initial Reply Please Somebody suggest me How to proceed The Life Cycle for the WIFI custom web application for AAA is as follows. 1) User Types www.yahoo.com 2) CISCO ROUTER Intercepts this requests and reroutes to a WEB container as http://IP:PORT or http://IP Only for AAA to be processed. 3) AAA processing is done in the WEB container by the application hosted as ROOT ( Replaced original ROOT with custom web application ) by default. 4) Once the AAA is processed, we redirect the user to a new Window of the browser and allow the user to the page requested for Originally (www.yahoo.com). 5) Session is maintained in thew Web server till valid Signoff signal sent to AAA router to stop Processing. Problem Load on this single TOMCAT is building up the CPU for 100% ,as the subscribers are increasing. Solution We need to bring in the Load Balancer with Multiple TOMCAT /APACHE2.x server [ ROOT of TOMCAT's mapped to APACHE2.x server ] . SPEC : OSS = UNIX 11 WEB Container = TOMCAT 5.5.23 JSDK = 1.6 with regards Karthik Hence we need multiple TOMCAT with ROOT being able to configure to a APCHE 2X http server. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If not please download and install the JDK from java.sun.com and download and install Tomcat from tomcat.apache.org. Using the default configuration, is a good starting point to determine the optimized settings as you do not presently have any metrics.

replacement for symbolic links to files (Apache httpd to Tomcat)
I'm converting from an Apache http system. Thousands of my users have bookmarked http://diglloyd.com/diglloyd/blog.html With Apache, I symlinked blog.html to the current month's blog. Now with Tomcat, I see warnings that enabling symlinks is a security risk. What is the best way to make blog.html = 2008-03-blog.html ? (eg if March 2008 is the current blog) I realize that I can write a one-line blog.jsp which includes the current month's blog. But that won't help users that bookmarked blog.html.
