All,

Referring to a classic Tomcat log like the one below :

Would it not be a good idea for Tomcat, when it starts, to print a first line to its main 
logfile, similar to what Apache httpd does :


[Tue Apr 01 18:00:02 2014] [notice] Apache/2.2.12 (Linux/SUSE) mod_ssl/2.2.12 
OpenSSL/0.9.8j-fips mod_jk/1.2.26 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.0 configured -- resuming 
normal operations


I mean, for Tomcat, a line with it's own version, the Java version, the APR version if 
used, the host OS if available etc..
All these things that we usually ask the posters to this list to provide, and which can be 
obtained via the version.sh|bat script in tomcat/bin.


In at least 50% of the cases, it would at least save us from having to ask.

And actually running the version.sh|bat script on the server (or any command-line for 
that matter) may not necessarily be easy for everyone who has a problem.

Re: mod_jk - Failover behaviour and load + patch

 My scenario is Apache httpd + mod_jk + N Tomcat's in. The default
 behaviour of load balanced workers in mod_jk in my testing is that
 when a client requests a page (GET / POST / Whatever), the LB
 worker tries the request to every ajp worker. This in contrast with
 what i read here:


 http://people.apache.org/~mturk/docs/article/ftwai.html
 http://people.apache.org/%7Emturk/docs/article/ftwai.html

 Expecially this part:


 When having multiple nodes in a cluster you can improve your
 application availability by implementing failover. The failover
 means that if the particular elected node can not fulfill the
 request the another node will be selected automatically. In case of
 three nodes you are actually doubling your application
 availability. The application response time will be slower during
 failover, but none of your users will be rejected. Inside the
 mod_jk configuration there is a special configuration parameter
 called worker.retries that has default value of 3, but that needs
 to be adjusted to the actual number of nodes in the cluster.

 ... worker.list=lbworker worker.lbworker.type=lb # Adjust to the
 number of workers worker.retries=4
 worker.lbworker.balance_workers=node1,node2,node3,node4 If you add
 more then three workers to the load balancer adjust the retries
 parameter to reflect that number. It will ensure that even in the
 worse case scenario the request gets served if there is a single
 operable node.

  From that it seems that the retries parameter in a load balancer
 worker context should mean the number of real (AJP) workers to
 try. (what i need indeed) but in my testing, that LB worker
 parameter is the number of times that all the AJP workers that are
 part of the LB worker get a round retry. In eg, having a LB worker
 with 4 AJP workers, setting LB Worker's retries = 2, the behaviour
 i see is that the AJP workers get called this way:

 AJP1 - timeout [...] AJP4 - timeout

 === repeat again (retries == 2)

 AJP1 - timeout [...] AJP4 - timeout

 -- LB sends an error to the client.



 Now from the online documentation the meaning of that parameter in
 a load balancer worker context is'nt that clear, but from the link
 i provided seems it was exactly what i needed, not the number of
 retries to all AJP workers, but the number of single AJP workers to
 try..

 If that is not correct i can fill a bug report. If instead it's by
 design, the attached patch adds a new parameter, lb_retries, that
 does what i need. Of course it's a bit rough, but works.

 Any comments? Am I getting stuff wrong?

 I'm bumping this because I can see Rainer has fixed a bunch of things
 in mod_jk over the last few days. Perhaps he's getting ready to do a
 release or something.


 Thanks Christopher, BTW on this issue I'm not even sure it's a documentation
 bug, a bug in mod_jk or an unfullfilled expectation of mine :-)
 Thing is, i had to use this cure.

 I'm sure my patch is a bit faulty, the HTTP status codes returned are  500,
 but i'm not sure they are in line with the protocol (503 / 504). but for now
 it works for me though.


1. If you really want to submit a patch,  please attach it to an issue
in Bugzilla, so that it is not forgotten.

http://tomcat.apache.org/bugreport.html

2. You were lucky that you attachment has reached the list.  Usually
attachments are just removed by mailing list server.

3. I cannot comment on the essence,  just two formal nits
1) The following line has a tab character instead of whitespaces:
+jk_log(l, JK_LOG_DEBUG, attempt %d, max attempts %d,

2) An unneeded comment
+/* fredi - default */

3) Documentation =?
(xdocs/reference/workers.xml)

 Noticed there were changes in mod_jk's git repo, i'm following it.


It is good that it works for you.
The official repository is subversion one.

(Patches against the git repository are OK.  Maybe you want to submit
those .gitignore files, as a separate issue?)

Im having a strange problem and I have googled it for a while but have

i get many messages from WebappClassLoader clearReferencesThreads saying

This is an indication that your webapp is not managing its threads properly.

 then finally, Ill get a message from HostConfig checkResources that 
 says its undeploying the context, and then it redeploys.

This is sometimes caused by incorrect timestamps on the bits of the webapp that 
Tomcat monitors, or an incorrect clock setting on the system Tomcat is running 
on.  The mismatch makes it appear that the webapp is being updated continuously.

If you want anything more than speculation, you'll need to provide real 
information: Tomcat version, JRE version, platform, server.xml (with comments 
removed), context.xml for the webapp, etc.

tomcat-connectors-1.2.39-windows-x86_64-iis does not work

2014-04-02 Thread Alten, Jessica-Aileen

Hi all,

I have a problem with the new release of the tomcat-connector (1.2.39) for
64 Bit Windows (isapi_redirect.dll), binary download.
The older versions worked like a charm under Windows Server 2008 R2 64 Bit
and Windows 7 64 Bit, even in a loadbalancing configuration. But after
switching to the new 1.2.39 version, no connection between IIS and Tomcat
(6.0.39, 7.0.52) can be established.

The configuration is a rudimentary version of the productive system
(concerning worker.wlb.type=lb), where three Tomcat instances are running
on a server.

The log file was absolutely clean (only init and terminate messages) before
version 1.2.39 and is clean again after switching back to version 1.2.37,
the connection between IIS and Tomcat is working, port 8009 works with
1.2.37. 
In both cases Tomcat is running and listening to the right port. I've
restarted the systems after changing the Dlls.

Can anybody help with this problem?

Thanks in advance,

External URL delay from webapp

2014-04-02 Thread Scott Bailey

Hi all,
We are having an issue with a new tomcat deployment, in our webapp we make a 
request to a 3rd party webservice site using http URL for retrieving the data, 
the first time we click the button to make the request the information is 
returned within a second or 2 but if we click the button again within 5 seconds 
to request the information again it takes a good minute for the data to be 
returned.

We found that if we set the -Dhttp.proxyHost  and -Dhttp.proxyPort options in 
tomcat under the java options this resolves the delay but also breaks another 
request to a different 3rd party using https URL.

We are new to tomcat and we have been researching for a week with no results 
other than the proxy setting.

Thank you!

A bit guessing here :

You have :
 worker.ajp13w.host=localhost

and

 jk_open_socket::jk_connect.c (735): connect to 0.0.0.0:8009 failed
 (errno=49)

is localhost == 0.0.0.0  ?

From the point of view of mod_jk/isapi, should it not be 127.0.0.1 ?

Programmatically grab? or just see it?

There is a link on the manager homepage for server status which will show

Maybe first, understand that this has nothing to do with Tomcat. So you may have been
looking for information in the wrong places.

It is your application making a connection to some outside endpoint, and Tomcat knows
nothing about it.
The only thing in common between your application and Tomcat, is that they both run in the
same JVM.
So if you set a global JVM option -D, this impacts *everything* that runs in that JVM :
Tomcat, other applications, and your own application.

You probably need to find a way to set these properties for your application only (or for
that connection only).

Sadly, I don't know java well-enough to know if that is possible in this case.
What library are you using, to make that HTTP call ? Look there first.

Good question :). But I got a good reason for it. 

I got two servers with several tomcat instances. 
In front of them is a loadbalancer with is configured to do a failover. 

   -LB-
/   \
Server1:8081Server2:8081

I need to write a shell script to sync a specific directory and for each tomcat 
instance I need to know on which one the loadbalancer is targeting at the 
moment. 
If tomcat 8081 on server 1 is down, the loadbalancer will point to server 2 
tomcat 8081. I can find it out through the loadbalancer address only.

Re: tomcat randomly undeploys and redeploys the applications

Chuck,

Thanks for your response. I will get you all the information you asked for
later tonight when I get out of work. In the meantime, the only threads our
application creates are those created by a ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor, and
in fact, when I do a thread dump to analyze what is going on, there are 30
threads associated with this executor that are in a BLOCKED state. We have
had trouble with executors in the past, but these threads are supposed to
be running for the lifecycle of the application. Is there a problem using
an executor in a tomcat application? I will provide you with the following
later today: Tomcat version, JRE version, platform, server.xml (with
comments removed), context.xml for the webapp, etc. Would you like me to
also attach the thread dump?

+1 for this

I can think of several (OK, many) mailing list threads where having this 
knowledge would have saved lots of time and effort.

RE: External URL delay from webapp

2014-04-02 Thread Scott Bailey

Thanks André!

This is what I was suspecting too. We were using jrun prior and jrun was 
proxying for us automatically.
Unfortunately I am not really a java person and do not know how to answer the 
library question you posed.
I think we will need our java developers look in to this from java perspective.

 Hi all,
 We are having an issue with a new tomcat deployment, in our webapp we make a 
 request to a 3rd party webservice site using http URL for retrieving the 
 data, the first time we click the button to make the request the information 
 is returned within a second or 2 but if we click the button again within 5 
 seconds to request the information again it takes a good minute for the data 
 to be returned.

 We found that if we set the -Dhttp.proxyHost  and -Dhttp.proxyPort options 
 in tomcat under the java options this resolves the delay but also breaks 
 another request to a different 3rd party using https URL.


Maybe first, understand that this has nothing to do with Tomcat.  So you may 
have been looking for information in the wrong places.

It is your application making a connection to some outside endpoint, and Tomcat 
knows nothing about it.
The only thing in common between your application and Tomcat, is that they both 
run in the same JVM.
So if you set a global JVM option -D, this impacts *everything* that runs in 
that JVM :
Tomcat, other applications, and your own application.

You probably need to find a way to set these properties for your application 
only (or for that connection only).
Sadly, I don't know java well-enough to know if that is possible in this case.
What library are you using, to make that HTTP call ?  Look there first.

 The archive is in a separated storage in our environment. So, I

 configurations and stress situations to see if the server will
 could handle 500 users. If necessary I can increase the server
 memory and processing, we have robust cluster. Actually the server

None of that really matters. You could serve this site off an iPhone
if you had enough network bandwidth. That's why I suggested using a CDN.

 At the same time, I am analyzing with security team if we could 
 liberate a specific video in youtube

Beware of YouTube's terms of service. You may be better off with a
choice like Vimeo. In you host on Amazon S3, you have no licensing
problems (as long as the content truly is yours).

 in order to instead use JWPlayer the site use an embedded youtube
 video, so I take off the responsibility of tomcat to deliver the
 video and I can sleep in peace. hahha

That's what CDNs are for.

I mean a build that triggers new class files, libraries, or some other
watched resource to trigger an automatic reload. If you want to
disable automatic reloads completely, set reloadable=false on your
Context (which is actually the default).

If you want to still be able to reload your web application sometimes,
consider installing the Manager webapp, which will let you do reloads,
etc. via a text/HTTP or GUI interface.

I don't believe you can /replace/ Tomcat's existing authenticator. Is
your Valve being initialized? Can you find out where it is in the
Valve chain?

I checked, and that information does not appear to be available via JMX :(

This is an indication that your webapp is not managing its threads
properly.


then finally, Ill get a message from HostConfig checkResources
that says its undeploying the context, and then it redeploys.


This is sometimes caused by incorrect timestamps on the bits of the
webapp that Tomcat monitors, or an incorrect clock setting on the
system Tomcat is running on.  The mismatch makes it appear that the
webapp is being updated continuously.


I've found that in development, a single update can cause Tomcat to go
into a loop of redeployments, re-deploying my web application every
few seconds or so. If I let it go, it does finally stop reloading and
settle down.



Can you describe your development environment a little bit, and any 
thoughts as to what might trigger this loop of redeployments?


I've not seen this, but it could explain some issues some the developers 
I support are seeing.


I believe Tomcat will emit a log message informing the administrator

which file has triggered the reload, but I think it's at the DEBUG log
level.

 Hello,
 
 I need to grab the hostname from the tomcat manager somehow. 
 Unfortunately this URL manager/text/serverinfo doesn't
 contain the
 hostname.
 
 Is there any other smart way to receive the hostname via
 tomcat
 manager app?
 
 
 For give me for asking, but how do you access the tomcat manager
 if you do not know the hostname ?
 
 Good question :). But I got a good reason for it.
 
 I got two servers with several tomcat instances. In front of them
 is a loadbalancer with is configured to do a failover.
 
 -LB- /   \ Server1:8081   Server2:8081
 
 I need to write a shell script to sync a specific directory and
 for each tomcat instance I need to know on which one the
 loadbalancer is targeting at the moment.

How will you check to see which one the lb is targeting?

 If tomcat 8081 on server 1 is down, the loadbalancer will point to 
 server 2 tomcat 8081. I can find it out through the loadbalancer 
 address only.

You should probably set a jvmRoute in your Engine in server.xml.
That way, you can detect which back-end server you are getting just by
looking at the JSESSIONID cookie.

I use Eclipse for development, but our real build process is
ant-based. We have some watched resources configured outside the
default (stuff like Struts config files, etc.).

When I do a build while Tomcat is running, usually I get one webapp
reload, but sometimes I get a series of reloads. It usually gets so
irritating (our webapp takes about 10 seconds to reload) that I just
kill Tomcat and immediately restart it. It starts up once and all is
well after that.

 I've not seen this, but it could explain some issues some the
 developers I support are seeing.

It definitely happens, and I never remember to enable the DEBUG
logging to find out what resource it thinks has been updated until
after it happens, at which point I just don't care. Perhaps I should
enable it right now :)
