Serving static content using embedded tomcat 7
Hello, I am working on embedding tomcat 7 into our application. We have a number of web apps and the static content is located in a different directory, common to all webapps. I am not finding a way to serve this static content. Could somebody please help me out. Thanks, Sandhya -- View this message in context: http://tomcat.10.n6.nabble.com/Serving-static-content-using-embedded-tomcat-7-tp4375155p4375155.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

1. Webapp classloader will be stopped when webapp stops. It happens
long before the hook runs. It would not be able to load any classes.
(and it will keep your web application classes in memory, which is
known as PermGen memory leak).
2. The contextClassLoader of your thread will reference Webapp
classloader, unless you explicitly set it to null.
Tomcat has some logic to detect and warn about some PermGen memory
leak patterns. You might have seen those warnings. It is better to
honour them seriously.
>From all of the above adding a shutdown hook from within a web
application is a bad idea. The hook classes must be in
${catalina.base}/lib folder and you can add to
conf/server.xml to manage the hook.
(Or better just replace the hook with a Listener).

or you can get a reference to Context, than walk up its parents chain,
and call Engine.getService().getServer().stop(). I think its
destroy() method will be called automatically when await thread stops.
Anyway calling Bootstrap looks better than calling System.exit() that
someone suggested here. When Tomcat is run as a service in Windows
you really must not use System.exit() as it will cause problems for
the service launcher.
You can also call stop() method through JMX.

As Javadoc for shutdown hooks says, when there are several hooks, they
all will be started at the same time and then run concurrently. The
order between them is random.
Note that the standard hook set by Tomcat shuts down the logging
framework. So if you try to log anything it is likely to be wasted.

Thread.join().
It looks like the calling thread (the one that called System.exit())
just waits until the target thread (CatalinaShutdownHook) finishes.
You should look in the logs to see what is printed there with regards
to the server shutdown sequence. Maybe it waits while some server
component shuts down?

For debugging I'm only using this, and it does run successfully. The
shutdown hook is not blocking anything,
Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(
new Thread(new Runnable(){
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println("HARI-KIRI SUCCESSFUL!");
}
}, "shutdownHook"));

Yikes, It is showing it is waiting on the Catalina shutdown hook. What is that
hook doing?

If you carefully read the security report for Tomcat 4, you'll see that the bug exists in a deprecated connector. If you are using the standard Coyote connector, then you are safe. For completeness, these are the connectors that are vulnerable to this issue: org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector Neither of these classes are included in the current 5.5 line (5.5.35), nor are they included in the current 6.0 line (6.0.35), nor are they included in the current 7.0 line (7.0.25).

Again, that seems weird. Do you have some kind of deadlock occurring
in your shutdown code? It sounds like:
System.exit: calls your shutdown hook, JVM does not stop
Bootstrap.main({"stop"}): avoids your shutdown hook, JVM stops
Maybe you should check your shutdown hook. :)

Yes. It should kill the JVM, which should shut down everything. If you
want to protect your JVM from webapps that might call System.exit(),
then you need to run under a SecurityManager.

Unfortunately the actions need to happen after tomcat has shutdown, not
just my webapp.

I agree, but I don't have a choice, boss says it must kill itself if
some scenario happens.

When I call System.exit() tomcat doesn't actually shutdown, it looks
like it just is deadlocking or something as I am getting a timeout on
the call that runs it. On the bright side System.exit() does trigger the
shutdown hook to be called, even though the server doesn't shut down, it
just becomes unresponsive but the process remains and is still bound to
all of its ports.
If I call both,
org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(new String[] { "stop"});
System.exit(0);
Tomcat shuts down, and my hook gets called, but I don't know how
ridiculous I want to take this already hacky thing...
Probably stupid question, but is calling System.exit() from a webapp
supposed to be able to kill tomcat?

Shutdown Hooks not firing when tomcat is shutdown from within a webapp
OS: Windows 7 32bit
Ver.: Apache Tomcat/7.0.25
Jvm: 1.6.0_14-b08
I am attaching a shutdown hook from within my webapp to log some info
after tomcat shuts down,
> Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(mythread, name +
":shutdownHook"));
When I run shutdown.bat from the bin folder the hook runs fine and I get
my output.
In some cases however I am forced to shut down tomcat from within the
webapp, in this case it calls,
> org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(new String[] { "stop"
});
Which shuts down tomcat, but in this case the shutdown hook does not get
fired.
Can anyone tell me how to programmatically shut down tomcat such that
the hooks will still fire?
What is the difference between running shutdown.bat and calling stop
programmatically?

Andrew Kujtan

Thanks Andre and John. I used jsvc to run tomcat before. Maybe that's what got me around the root user restriction. Seems the simplest solution is to just use NAT.

What you probably mean is that the Fedora repackaged distribution of Tomcat installs it that way by default, no ? Tomcat itself does not require that. So, before someone else here tells you to install a genuine official Tomcat from the Tomcat website, have you checked on the Fedora support list ? Otherwise, it should be quite simple to change the port by modifying the corresponding tag in Tomcat's server.xml. But then of course you might have to fight with SE-Linux and such things. For which you may need the Fedora support list anyway, so why not start there ? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
Re: Web app calls JMS over SSL - certificates
Chuck Thanks, but my question really does have to do with Tomcat. The ActiveMQ is actually on another server and my application hosted on Tomcat needs to pull messages off of ActiveMQ over SSL. What I would like to do is tell my application where my keystore files are located rather than load them through the JVM. Another list member asked me how the message broker loads its keystore files, perhaps as a general hint to how I might load them from my web app. My Tomcat specific question then is, will the Tomcat container let me do that from the app level, and if not, can I configure it on the Tomcat server other than setting the keystore properties in the JVM VM startup parameters.

Running Tomcat on Port 80 with Fedora 16 without IP tables redirect
Hi, In the past I have been able to run tomcat on port 80 under a "tomcat" user. It seems like the latest versions of Fedora require that tomcat either be run as root or requests to 8080 have to be redirected using iptables. Can anyone confirm this?

Re: Web app calls JMS over SSL - certificates
I am using ActiveMQ and its activemq.xml file has a section where the keystore and truststore point to those files. So I assume that means that there is a way to set these at runtime. Still leaves me with the question of whether I can set these at runtime from my app on Tomcat.

There's an additional step required for Tomcat 6 that's not necessary for Tomcat 7. So either upgrade, or do the following: Change the name of the DefaultServlet in logs/WEB-INF/web.xml to logsdefault (or some other unique label): logsdefault and add a for it: logsdefault / Tomcat 6 does not allow you to override the settings in the global conf/web.xml, but Tomcat 7 does. And one more question - if myapp's docBase is set to $CATALINA_BASE/logs , does it matter what is in the webapps/myapp folder? Assuming the "myapp" you're referring to is the one for accessing Tomcat's logs, you should not risk problems by also having a webapps/myapp. It shouldn't hurt, but...
