RE: remote debug with tomcat 3.3.2

2010-03-02 Thread Kedzior Wojciech
I see.  Thanks for the input.

I think I will try to run the app (as a local experiment only) on tomcat 6 to 
see what happens.  If that fails I may try to recompile 3.3.2.

Cheers

I'm pretty sure that I compiled the binary for 3.3.2 without debugging 
support.  The only thing I can think of is to download the source release of 
3.3.2 and compile it with debugging.

At the time 3.3.2 was released, using a debugger in Java was so painful that 
almost nobody did it.

in linux you can use:
ps -ef | grep http | grep -v grep | wc -l

This command returns the number of "http" active process

It's not perfectly clear what you want, but the netstat tool is available on
most platforms and will display all active connections.  The manager webapp
that is part of the standard Tomcat download shows the number of active
sessions, and Lambda Probe (www.lambdaprobe.org) and MoSKito (
moskito.anotheria.net) can give you detailed statistics.

Really? Well, when I was implementing connection pooling in 4.1.31, I 
specifically remember having to use  ojdbc14_g.jar instead of ojdbc14.jar to 
successfully get the conn pooling to work.

I'll swap out the ojdbc14_g.jar  for the ojdbc14.jar and just use the latter 
and see if that works.

Please double check the "ojdbc14.jar" size, Some times I find the jar files 
corrupt due to various reasons.

Also check only 1 copy of this 'jar' exists in "/TOMCAT6.0.2.0/lib" directory

Is that the real location?  If so, it's not valid.  The webapps directory is 
the default directory under which each webapp is normally deployed; there must 
be a webapp name between "webapps" and "META-INF" (e.g., ROOT).  Any other 
construct is incorrect.

Mostly useful for custom clients channeling under HTTP, but you could 
probably write a scripted client as well that works with it (haven't tried). 
The examples in Tomcat 7 are mostly server-push (e.g. fake stock ticker, 
chat).  These are done by not completing the connection, and just pumping 
more data to a chunked response (so you get the spinning wheel the entire 
time the apps is running).   They work in most browsers (only most, because 
I've only tested them in IE and FireFox).


But as I said before, would probably help the OP, assuming that traffic 
isn't too great.

java.util.logging - help needed with configuration and problem determination

I'm using JSVC to start Tomcat 6.0.20 as a daemon on Solaris.  Java is

Does the logging.properties file below look correct for loggers named

Nor does that.  What are you categorizing as a "lesser thread"?  What makes 
those any more scalable than any other kind of thread?  You're free to set the 
thread pool limit to any value you want, including infinity.  Setting the limit 
to larger than what the logical and physical resources of the system you're 
running on can handle will induce performance problems (e.g., page thrashing, 
excessive GCs) or outright failures as soon as someone decides to start 
pounding on your server.

Subject: Re: Tomcat threads

If we get a request on a thread, let some other thread do
the work for it and store the response info. The thread
which does the work writes the response on that request.


If the processing is fast, why would you go to the complexity and overhead 
of switching to another thread to process the request?


You should also read the servlet spec, in particular SRV.2.3.3.3:

"Implementations of the request and response objects are not guaranteed to 
be thread
safe. This means that they should only be used within the scope of the 
request handling

thread.

"References to the request and response objects should not be given to 
objects
executing in other threads as the resulting behavior may be 
nondeterministic. If
the thread created by the application uses the container-managed objects, 
such as
the request or response object, those objects must be accessed only within 
the
servlet's service life cycle and such thread itself should have a life 
cycle within
the life cycle of the servlet's service method because accessing those 
objects

after the service method ends may cause undeterministic problems."

The illogical behavior you're asking for simply isn't allowed.



At least not until Tomcat 7 ;).  In there, you can do exactly what the user 
is asking for using the AsyncContext.  The details are in the Servlet 3.0 
spec, but basically the request is handed off to another thread and the 
original one returns to the pool.  This also allows for two-way 
communication instead of relying on polling.


Of course Comet offers similar functionality in Tomcat 6 if you don't mind 
being bound to Tomcat.

3.3.2 and compile it with debugging.


At the time 3.3.2 was released, using a debugger in Java was so painful that 
almost nobody did it.

Hello,

I'm having a problem with setting up a remote debug session to my Tomcat 
3.3.2 Final.  I am copying some classes I developed into the working 
directory of an application deployed on tomcat.  I can connect to the 
remote debug port from eclipse but the debugger will not stop on any break 
points what so ever.  Here is my environment:


I specify the following system variables:

JPDA_ADDRESS=8000
JPDA_TRANSPORT=dt_socket

I start my Tomcat with the jpda start parameters.

While tailing the logs I can see the following line:

Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000


At this point I can connect to the remote debug port from Eclipse.  I can 
see all the treads running within Tomcat, but my debug will not stop on 
any breakpoints.  Even though the class I am trying to debug was created 
by me in Eclipse and I have the correct source.


The classes were compiled using Java 1.5.0_09.  Tomcat also uses the same 
version of Java.


The tomcat is deployed on Linux RedHat 5.
Eclipse version is 3.5.1


The complied classes have a reference to the .java file.

To prove that the problem occurs with the entire deployment I obtained the 
sources for the deployed application, linked them in my eclipse and set 
some debug points.  I know the flow goes through the line with break 
points because I used some dirty System.err output to prove this.



One thing that may be a hint is that the Tomcat startup log shows the 
following line:


EmbededTomcat: Startup time 45

The thing to note here is that I don't have control over the actual war 
file deployed in tomcat.  I simply get the war from a different department 
in the company, deploy it, and write some classes that the deployed 
application will pick up and use.


I have studied this Embedded Tomcat a little bit and I don't know if this 
could be a problem.


Has someone experienced anything like this before? If so, I would 
appreciate it very much if you could shed some (even the dimmest) light 
onto this.


Thanks,

Wojtek Kedzior

Not necessarily.  6u10 was a major internal upgrade, so it might be interesting 
to try 6u7:

(There were no 6u8 or 6u9 releases.)

I am using ojdbc6.jar with tomcat 6 (two different versions) and it 
works just fine.  I am using dbcp that comes with tomcat 6 without any 
problems.

There were some things that weren't implemented correctly/well in 
ojdbc14, which work with ojdbc6, some calls for getting metadata from 
prepared
statements or result sets (can't remember the exact details).  ojdbc6 
seems to work just fine.

Re: Tomcat dies suddenly

2010-03-02 Thread Carl

This is an update.

Tried Sun JVM 1.6.0_16 (I had already tried 1.6.0_17 and 1.6.0_18... Taylan 
thought 1.6.0_16 worked properly in his environment.)  Failed with the same 
indicator as the other tests: brought it up on Sunday, failed about 11:00AM 
this morning (the T105 AMD 64 bit Slackware, etc.)


Switched to the T110 (64 bit Intel Slackware, etc.) and it failed at about 
2:30PM today.  The load today has been steady but not overly heavy.


Have had problems getting any information from strace.  Konstantin was 
correct that using start.sh caused a fork which meant strace had to be 
started with the '-f' option.  However, my first attempts caused strace to 
crash:

I have now started strace (on the T105, AMD, 64 bit Slackware, etc.) from

is going to a rapidly growing file.


I have the latest IBM JVM on the T110.  I will switch this to production in 
the morning while holding the above T105 in reserve in case this one goes 
down.


Still looking for the exorcist but we now know that an older version of the 
Sun JVM doesn't do the trick.  Be interesting to see if the IBM JVM cures

Really? Well, when I was implementing connection pooling in 4.1.31, I

I'll swap out the ojdbc14_g.jar  for the ojdbc14.jar and just use the latter 
and see if that works.

Hi

Please double check the "ojdbc14.jar" size, Some times I find the jar files 
corrupt due to various reasons.

Also check only 1 copy of this 'jar' exists in "/TOMCAT6.0.2.0/lib" directory 
and make sure the same does not exist within the web application.

ojdbc14_g.jar is used for advance debug purpose, although it works try with

Re: Tomcat threads

2010-03-02 Thread Bharath Vasudevan
Why is it illlogical? Fast is a relative term. If the number of requests
increases, the number of threads that can be handled by the system goes down
. The context switches and the pain to handle the switches makes handling of
the requests in lesser threads which is scalable.

If the processing is fast, why would you go to the complexity and overhead of 
switching to another thread to process the request?

You should also read the servlet spec, in particular SRV.2.3.3.3:

"Implementations of the request and response objects are not guaranteed to be 
thread
safe. This means that they should only be used within the scope of the request 
handling

the thread created by the application uses the container-managed objects, such

servlet's service life cycle and such thread itself should have a life cycle 
within
the life cycle of the servlet's service method because accessing those objects
after the service method ends may cause undeterministic problems."

The illogical behavior you're asking for simply isn't allowed.

Re: Tomcat threads

2010-03-02 Thread Bharath Vasudevan
Thanks Chuck.

One thing I am not able to get is why would the user care if the response
was done from a different thread? Is it not going to be opaque to the user
as long as its fast?

If we get a request on a thread, let some other thread do the work for it
and store the response info. The thread which does the work writes the
response on that request.

That does seem to be a bug.  By default, the access logger logs the common
log web server
format, but of course it doesn't have to, so it should log non-HTTP requests
as well, but maybe
only if a non-default pattern is configured?

Except that then it is more difficult to debug.  Right?  It isn't as easy to
inspect the value of
the current time if you perform the subtraction without first assigning the
current time to a
variable.

Tomcat can (hopefully) answer a larger number of requests per second
every year on decently modern hardware.  Benchmark it both ways on
a reasonably good/wide machine and you'll see why avoiding the sync
is helpful.  I don't think it muddies the code very badly here.

If that string above is your entire POST request body, then it's not

Obviously, something is different. Check everything between your manual

Depends on the particular JVM being used, not on Tomcat.  Pretty much all 
modern JVMs use a kernel thread for each java.lang.Thread instance on which 
start() has been called.

Because you can make the limit as large as you want.  Making it too large 
leaves you open to DOS attacks and running out of resources on the server.

That's the nature of HTTP, not servlets in particular.  A properly designed 
application facing a long-duration situation will usually send an interim 
status back to the client, and kick off an auxiliary thread to do whatever is 
going to run for a while.  The auxiliary thread places the final response in 
some location associated with the client when it's ready.  The client polls for 
status and the final response using JavaScript or some other mechanism.

> If there is contention for a resource which might take time

Yes; Tomcat won't care, but your users might.  Don't use poorly designed 
applications.

Tomcat threads

2010-03-02 Thread Bharath Vasudevan
Hi,

I would like to know more on the threads created in tomcat. Are they user
level threads or kernel threads?

I see that the requests are kicked off through the threads from a pool
(which has a configured size), how can this be scalable?

Also, from my understanding in servlets, the response for a request in has
to be done then and there (as in I cant respond for a request later in
future from some random thread) .

If there is contention for a resource which might take time (causing the
response to take time), wont tomcat run out of threads?

Not sure how relevant this is, but last year I had a test installation of

So it works, for some value of "work" :-)

Re: Access Log /Filter/?

2010-03-02 Thread Xie Xiaodong
Thank the comments. I should have rechecked this file before I sent it here.
:)

First, for the init() part: in the super class FilterBase, we have a init()
method which will do the initialization work you mentioned.

Second, you are absolutely right about the log.info(). I first wrote
like this for testing and forgot to get it back to debug level.

In modern jvm, it does not matter much between StringBuffer and
StringBuilder, jvm will change StringBuffer used in single
thread scenario into StringBuilder automaticlly. You could google this
information. There are some benchmark test about it.

I'll check the remaining part tomorrow morning. It is rather late now.

Wish you have a nice day.

Really? Well, when I was implementing connection pooling in 4.1.31, I 
specifically remember having to use  ojdbc14_g.jar instead of ojdbc14.jar to 
successfully get the conn pooling to work.

I'll swap out the ojdbc14_g.jar  for the ojdbc14.jar and just use the latter 
and see if that works.

Thanks, Karthik.

Hi

Please double check the "ojdbc14.jar" size, Some times I find the jar files 
corrupt due to various reasons.

Also check only 1 copy of this 'jar' exists in "/TOMCAT6.0.2.0/lib" directory 
and make sure the same does not exist within the web application.

ojdbc14_g.jar is used for advance debug purpose, although it works try with 
normal ojdbc14.jar




With regards

Is that the real location?  If so, it's not valid.  The webapps directory is 
the default directory under which each webapp is normally deployed; there must 
be a webapp name between "webapps" and "META-INF" (e.g., ROOT).  Any other 
construct is incorrect.

That is exactly how I feel.  However I'm not the person responsible for these

here by being more (much much more) efficient by using a debugger instead of 
log files when developing code.

To be honest I have no idea why they use such an old version of Tomcat.  And I 
hope RND or someone is looking at upgrading.  I also suspect that there are 
some proprietary libraries involved here, which may hinder a tomcat upgrade.

I hate it, but I have to do with what I have and I'm just trying to get the

You're asking for help with a version of Tomcat that's six years old and hasn't 
been supported for ages?  Not to mention buggier and much slower than the 
current releases.

Your time would be better spent moving up to a supported level and then working

If that string above is your entire POST request body, then it's not
properly formatted. Instead, it should be:

call=8347812459870132405987234985023450987

You'll likely to have to switch to POST for query strings that exceed
1k. Good motivation to get this working!

Obviously, something is different. Check everything between your manual
and "automated" tests and see what is different. Maybe it's a trailing
newline. Maybe it's a Content-Length header. Whatever it is, apparently,
it's significant.

For the most part, you've just replaced the invoke() method with a
doFilter() method and introduced init(), which calls start(). Then, you
removed all the Lifecycle stuff.

How will Filters be configured in TC7? If they will use the same


  

...style of configuration, then you'll need to have your init() method
fetch all the init-param values and set those values on the
AccessLogFilter before calling start().

I might just re-name start() to init() and make whatever changes are
necessary.

Oh, the irony.

Obviously, you can't have this log message at the INFO level. I'll
assume that all logging currently in the code is for development
purposes and will be removed for a final version.

Why does the request have to be an HTTP request in order to have the
access log run? I would flip the logic around to only do the logging if
the request is an HTTP request, rather than having this mid-method return.

This isn't your choice, it's in the original code, but why not just do:

long elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis();
...
elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis() - elapsed;

??

Fewer items on the stack, etc.

> Date date = getDate();

The original default size for the StringBuffer was 128 characters.
Presumably, this was done to avoid the cost of re-sizing the
StringBuffer whenever it grew too large. The default initial capacity of
a StringBuffer is 16 characters, which is almost certainly too small for
a reasonable access log entry. You should put the larger size back in.

While you're at it, use StringBuilder instead to avoid the overhead of
synchronization for an object in a single-threaded environment.

> public void log(String message) {

Maybe re-write this method to avoid having to convert from
StringBuffer/StringBuilder to String: why do the work if you don't have to?

Why not have a dummy "month" at index 0 and /not/ subtract? Come on...

I don't understand why this is ThreadLocal, instead of just synchronized
across the object. Maybe it's slightly faster to avoid the
synchronization and just use ThreadLocals, but I'm not sure how many
requests per second a single Thread is going to process, so I'm not
convinced that caching this data is worth the complexity it requires in
this class. I'd love to hear from a Tomcat dev about this.

Run your ant script with a "-D" defined for catalina.home (or any other 
properties that exist in your webapp's environment..."ant -h" is always helpful 
here ;). e.g.:

ant -Dcatalina.home=/opt/tomcat-6

how to configure log4j path to work both in Tomcat and from the CLI?

2010-03-02 Thread fred basset
Hi All,

I use log4j, I'm trying to configure it so that log4j uses a non
hardcoded path, and it resolves the path both when running under
tomcat and running my unit tests from the CLI with ant.

Here's the relevant line from log4j.properties:

log4j.appender.R.File=${catalina.home}/logs/myapp.log


This works fine when I'm running my app. under Tomcat, but when I try
to run my unit tests from ant, log4j tries to log to /logs/myapp.log
(i.e. resolves ${catalina.home} to nothing).
The CATALINA_HOME environment variable is set correctly.

Thanks if anyone can help me on this.

Likely a bug that was fixed in 6.0.19.  Please move up and try it again.

The application is packaged as services#myapp.jar, and has a
META-INF/context.xml containing a single  tag. When the app is
deployed, this expands the jar into webapps/services#myapp and copies
context.xml to conf/Catalina/localhost/services#myapp.xml

The app runs fine at this point. If tomcat is restarted however, the error
occurs because the directory does indeed not exist, it is looking for the
wrong directory. It should be looking for "C:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\services#myapp".

If I delete conf/Catalina/localhost/services#myapp.xml, the app starts fine,
until the next tomcat restart.

Is this a bug with tomcat? Any workarounds?

Thanks

This one looks like PostgreSQL, though you appear to have the port
numbers translated into "readable" port names so it's tough to tell.

Note that the listen address is an IPv6 address, not IPv4.

The above should be authorization preferences, and shouldn't cause a

Do you have a software firewall? Make sure it allows

I agree with Chuck: it's possible that "localhost" refers to an IPv4
address and therefore won't connect as your PostgreSQL looks like it's
bound to an IPv6 address. I'm not sure if they're entirely compatible.

The client does url encode in addition to translating any chars that are

translated to ^, comma to #, right/left parens to @ and $ respectivally) 
then I use javascripts "escape(string)" method to url encode it the

If you wanted to get cute, you could implement this
one-parameter-to-rule-them-all strategy as a Filter which wraps the
request and provides a simpler getParameter interface to your webapps.
Instead of this:

String everything = getParameter("everything");
String specific = parseSpecific(everything);

You could have your webapp code simply do this:

String specific = request.getParameter("specific");

... then the request wrapper does all the work to gather the parameter
information from the right place, decode it, and return the data to the
caller.

Are you using a web server in front of Tomcat? If so, you'll need to map
"*.do" to Tomcat. Often, *.jsp and others are mapped but not "*.do", so
you'll have to double-check.

If you don't have a web server in front of Tomcat, the only other things
I can think of are:

1. Your paths are absolute instead of relative, and you hard-coded the
context path in development, but deployed to production under a
different context path. In that case, you'll get references to
/oldname/foo.do instead of /newname/foo.do. You'll have to make sure you
properly format your links so that the correct context path is always used.

2. You don't have your Struts controller server mapped to /*.do in
web.xml. That would be a pretty big mistake, and wouldn't work in
development, but if you have a different web.xml file for each
environment, it might be the cause.

That's too bad: on *NIX, I can use it to grab all system properties as
well as show me those that were specified on the command-line, etc. :(

One more reason to run *NIX in production. And development. And pretty

Re: Centralize settings...

2010-03-02 Thread Jason Brittain
Yes, using Tcat Server profiles is another way.  Create a new profile that
contains
all of the Tomcat configuration you want, and any files you want to add into
your
Tomcat installation (binary or text), and you can apply the profile to any
number
of regular Tomcat installations, potentially across multiple machines.  The
console
allows you a central point of administration of the server profile.  See
this page
for some more details:

http://blogs.mulesoft.org/saving-time-using-tcat-servers-centralized-configuration-management

Tcat Server is commercial software, but it is free for pre-production use.

There are other ways of centrally administering a set of configuration files
for
doing what you're asking about, though I think they're more time consuming,
or they involve some custom programming, or both.  Some examples include:
1. Writing your own Ant build files that use the SSH task to scp files to
the machines
  that should have the files.  This works fine, but involves lots of custom
  programming.
2. Writing a shell script that uses rsync or SSH, which ends up very similar
to #1.
3. Using a more complex configuration management tool such as SystemImager
   http://systemimager.org but it isn't as simple to get it working, it
makes some
   assumptions about what you're trying to do that probably aren't correct,
and it
   doesn't provide any Tomcat specific features, such as server diagnostics,
   webapp deployment, or server restarts.  SystemImager is only for imaging
   whole machines.

I hope this helps.

RE: DB connection error -Tomcat 6 config

2010-03-02 Thread Propes, Barry L
Really? Well, when I was implementing connection pooling in 4.1.31, I 
specifically remember having to use  ojdbc14_g.jar instead of ojdbc14.jar to 
successfully get the conn pooling to work.

I'll swap out the ojdbc14_g.jar  for the ojdbc14.jar and just use the latter 
and see if that works.

Thanks, Karthik.

Hi

Please double check the "ojdbc14.jar" size, Some times I find the jar files 
corrupt due to various reasons.

Also check only 1 copy of this 'jar' exists in "/TOMCAT6.0.2.0/lib" directory 
and make sure the same does not exist within the web application.

ojdbc14_g.jar is used for advance debug purpose, although it works try with 
normal ojdbc14.jar

Is that the real location?  If so, it's not valid.  The webapps directory is 
the default directory under which each webapp is normally deployed; there must 
be a webapp name between "webapps" and "META-INF" (e.g., ROOT).  Any other 
construct is incorrect.

I wouldn't think AXIS is necessary - just use whatever the webapps inside

RE: remote debug with tomcat 3.3.2

2010-03-02 Thread Kedzior Wojciech
Hi Chuck,

Thanks for your answer.  

That is exactly how I feel.  However I'm not the person responsible for these 
kinds of decisions within the company.  I am merely trying to help the guys 
here by being more (much much more) efficient by using a debugger instead of 
log files when developing code.  

To be honest I have no idea why they use such an old version of Tomcat.  And I 
hope RND or someone is looking at upgrading.  I also suspect that there are 
some proprietary libraries involved here, which may hinder a tomcat upgrade. 

I hate it, but I have to do with what I have and I'm just trying to get the 
best out of what I have.

So, any other suggestions?

Cheers

You're asking for help with a version of Tomcat that's six years old and hasn't 
been supported for ages?  Not to mention buggier and much slower than the 
current releases.

Your time would be better spent moving up to a supported level and then working 
on the debugging.

You send HTTP requests to Tomcat from your client program, regardless of where 
either is running.  Apache provides a useful HTTP client library if you need 
something more sophisticated than what the JRE supplies:
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client/index.html

Only if your web application will open a socket and listen there.

Tomcat 6.0 connectors themselves understand HTTP(S) and AJP protocols only.

If you say about JNDI, I suppose you are going to use LDAP protocol.

I think you're trying to apply source code patches to the embedded 
binary, which isn't going to work.


You may be able to replace the entire Tomcat installation with the 
latest version, but that would be a question for Business Objects/SAP 
support.

It means that you should talk to SAP's tech support to get an updated
version of the embedded Tomcat that they've customised for Business
Objects.

Do it at build time.  So many different configuration requirements

Putting configuration files into a source repository and writing

How are you changing the port?  Are you somehow editing the XML file and

I am validating shutdown port using
Socket socket = new Socket("127.0.0.1",JVMPort);


is JVMPort the value for the Tomcat shutdown port?

You are, perhaps inadvertently, causing an empty command to be sent to 
the shutdown port.  The log message below is the expected response if 
you do so.


If you need to start Tomcat programmatically, I strongly recommend that 
you look at the Embedded documentation I sent earlier.
