Persistent Context Configuration
Hi, I have a web application that I've deployed on three different virtual hosts. Each virtual host requires different configuration data (specifically, AWS credentials and options that the web application uses to access AWS services). In the future, there may be many more deployments, each with their own set of AWS credentials and options. I've tried putting these options as parameters in conf/Catalina/name/ROOT.xml files which works except that file is deleted each time the web application is redeployed. Where is the proper place to put virtual-host-specific configuration options such that they can be easily read from within the web application and persist across redeployments? I can't put them in the WAR file directly because the same WAR file will be re-used by multiple virtual-hosts, so I need something that I can put in server.xml or something similar. Thanks in advance for any help you can give. :) -- Tim Gustafson t...@tgustafson.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

How can i prevent the session fixation ? If you are managing the authentication yourself, then you'll have to handle (mitigate) session fixation yourself, too. You can invalidate and create a new session in the same request, if you want. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJTeNMIAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYje4P/i1LD+r06I1VuI6jtFAzM/0k Ow/HyXyyFRIq3zz1+LUQ8ys2PEROTw+E7q3NzLvBb8e6Vngc2vWBoRq7jps1r4Jq h/5Cd4k7DI5V5dlPFph7nHNXwKbGgRtCamvhwC/fQFlZxwvGTOfAyxeYLT42k3zF x3HkesQSI9F4hfy9VzQ8977cTICUI8bz5pUksRccN9uFJ5A1V18vdjDEJ7hWkS8K V5lPr0VlZ9XzNOZ9conQYoZnuOzvl9l73QECTJi8jSPeVHGGEFcQmVE2KCxExx4u qqN0twycISY/TrLxt74WkiJseljzr+QXZUjFHIlaepU62/pVmOwBQHs9bs1e7jHo YNSY/8g+W0nKvLexgULJw1FBpxlq2LcTtkRzPDPEuTp0OlE583bPufxd+LaoLwL3 uWEtkhMSNiMsChyCigBsaZZVhkY8DzmSQ2SYpZmGx3suyJmllt/yiET+vc2uRAxn 6iBKvrSrwzDnqwpMpeowpU69n5v12+yRNts5PCOksLJ61TDV59C2AvUE3CWJI417 M163/01GEF9yux5/7cm7jYJpEDdqS3+y1vLC4E9I7BXkpLuuPmVAUcbl7VPVl12X h5wZsbdFX9xZsIoDPkLlZv8+0ugp/BlLwVqNRNfnNusLQl4OHF/hlj1eWIDBQsEJ G8FbWFqolK+tUemVOO1v =UHeH -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Re: jsf validator not found when using maven tomcat 7 plugin
Hey, No, I get javax.faces.FacesException Expression error: Named object customXmlValidator not found even though is defined perfectly, otherwise it wouldn't have worked when I run it from my IDE or manually with any server.

Re: Persistent Context Configuration
For virtual host-specific context configurations, place a context.xml.default in: $CATALINA_BASE/conf/[engine-name]/[host-name] See the following: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/context.html That did the trick; thanks! -- Tim Gustafson t...@tgustafson.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Chris thanks for the reminder, I will fix the missing page with the example I wrote, back then. I thought I have published that already.
