Re: Deployment of WEB App from ANT build fails with IOException.

[Karl Hauschildt]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Yes I should have seen that in the doc you
reference but equally surprised that no post, anywhere, bothered to mention
the URL change as it's pretty important. So, now it deploy's find but will
not start which I had been chasing elsewhere. The error is Tomcat throws an
exception of unable to create JAXB Instance very early during
initialization.

Re: Deployment of WEB App from ANT build fails with IOException.

[Karl Hauschildt]

Hmmm... It appears that the requests are coming in as the tomcatadmin user
which makes sense as that's what the deploy task is configured to use. In
this cased, the target box is Linux and there is no tomcatadmin setup. When
the sysadmin's get in ...

Re: switching between Java8 and Java 7 under tomcat7 leads to error

[Karl Hauschildt]

Be careful. The only real way to know what tomcat is using is to get into
the manager who will display the java version it is using. Their startup
script makes some determination on the fly.

 Today I installed Java 8 on my windows 7 machine and did an upgrade of

 After the Java update and the CMS update suddenly my tomcat 6.0.39

 When starting my CMS system again I now found that it did some
 unpleasant things for which I wanted to rule out tomcat7 being the culprit
 and switch the jvm.dll in the tomcat7 configurator to the jre1.7
 jvm.dll.

 Then suddenly I got the same error as under tomcat6.0 when I tried to
 start tomcat7 again.

 Could it be that the Java8 installer screws the existing Java 7 ? Or
 does it change some global parameters that tomcat reads at start time.


 Thanks.

Re: Deployment of WEB App from ANT build fails with IOException.

[Karl Hauschildt]

Hi Mark:

This is what I have in the tomcat-users.xml. And I've tried pairing it down
to all the various combo's per suggestions in searches. Behavior never
changes.







Thanks for taking the time to think about this.

Re: Deployment of WEB App from ANT build fails with IOException.

[Karl Hauschildt]

Specifically what would I do to enable the logging? I raised the level(s)
to FINEST and DEBUG wherever I saw them at something higher.
Thanks again.

Deployment of WEB App from ANT build fails with IOException.

[Karl Hauschildt]

 

Background:

JAVA Web application, Eclipse workspace with an ANT build.xml. 

Using Windows, this project builds using java 1.7, deploys to multiple
Solaris environments running Tomcat 5, 6 or 7 and runs cleanly.

 

I have to deploy the preceding to a Linux environment with Tomcat 8. Which
is running JAVA 1.8

 

Problem:

The deploy task fails with: BUILD FAILED java.io.IOException: Error
writing request body to server

Looking in the Tomcat, localhost.log, I see: "PUT
/manager/deploy?path=%2FFXInSite=true HTTP/1.1" 403 3196 

The other logs contain no errors or warnings.

 

Investigations:

I have set the Tomcat (catalina) logging levels to DEBUG and FINEST. 

I can get into the tomcat and the manager on the same port as what the
delpoyment uses.

The user that Tomcat is running under ( not root ) has full permissions to
all folders.

I have compared the server.xml and web.xml configuration files between Linux
and Solaris and they are essentially identical.

Google searches for anything to do with ANT and the delpoy task, Tomcat 403
errors, permissions have been unsucessful. 

 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Deployment of application via Tomcat Manager fails.
