CLOBs, Connection Pooling, Help!
Ok, I've searched and searched, but I cannot figure out the answer. I am using Tomcat container provided connection pooling; connecting to an Oracle XE server and I need to insert a CLOB. It would appear that doing this task is dependent upon which RDBMS vendor you're working with? Can anyone help me understand what I need to do? I've gotten this far: import javax.naming.*; import java.sql.*; import javax.sql.*; import oracle.jdbc.*; // try/catch stuff omitted for example. Context initContext = new InitialContext(); Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup(java:/env/); DataSource ds = (DataSource) envContext.lookup(jdbc/isms_messaging); Connection conn = ds.getConnection(); sqlString = insert into message_body (message_id,message_body) values (?,?); PreparedStatement insertMsgBodyRecord = conn.prepareStatement(sqlString); insertMsgBodyRecord.setString(1,message.getMessageId()); // This is where things fall apart (setStringForClob // is a Oracle PreparedStatement method) - which // is wrong, but still insertMsgBodyRecord.setStringForClob(2,message.toXML()); insertMsgBodyRecord.executeUpdate(); insertMsgBodyRecord.close(); conn.close(); thanks -- brian - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
IE causes an ORA-00936 error, but not Firefox?
Ok, here is a weird one. I don't believe it is related to Tomcat specifically, but I'd like to tap the community and see if someone else has ever experienced this issue. I am troubleshooting an app, which was originally designed using Firefox. Now that we are testing with IE (IE 6 and 7), we are running into an unusual error (see below). I don't have access to the JSPs at the moment (I believe it is a model I application - JSP only) so I can't look at the code - just functional testing for now. But this error only occurs in IE (both 6 and 7) - I've tried googling, but without much luck.

Garbage Collection and Class unloading
Can someone explain a little bit about classloading really quick? Let me preface this with: I am maintaining an application which I did not develop. Looking at the WEB-INF/lib directory, it has around 76 different jar files, some actually used in the application, some (well, most) not. They either pertain to legacy features or are functionality duplicate (two different versions of Oracle driver libraries, for example) I am trying to tune Tomcat because it keeps running out PermGen space, so I am using jconsole to inspect the JVM. I suppose it isn't really a profiler, but it is a start. According to jconsole, after doing many application development cycles of remove-deployment of *.war to Tomcat (via manager), it looks like as many as 20k classes are loaded. I was under the impression that the garbage collector would unload classes as necessary. I tried to force a GC via jconsole, it reduced the heap memory like it should, and it unloaded a few classes pertaining to reflection, but nothing like what I was hoping for. I then leave it be for several hours, and all magic like, the GC unloads about 4k classes. First question. Anyone tell me why it doesn't unload classes when I am trying to force it? Is classloading/unloading not even the same as garbage collection? Second question. Is having 20k classes loaded normal for a middle sized application? I am assuming if I remove all the unnecessary jars from WEB-iNF/lib I can reduce that number? Would it benefit anything to place them in shared/lib? Third: If over 75% of the classes in the jars aren't being called anywhere in the application, even though they get loaded on the initial application deployment, shouldn't the GC unload them almost immediately, since there aren't any open resources using these classes. Fourth question: Do my JAVA_OPTS looks decent? JAVA_OPTS=-Xms512m -Xmx512m -server -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=8114 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintClassHistogram -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:MaxPermSize=128m many thanks! -- brian ps.

I am having a problem setting up a connection-pool via JNDI on Tomcat 6.0.14
utilizing Oracle 10g. Currently I have a Resource for my DataSource
referenced within a Context element within the server.xml file. The
classes12.jar file which contains the Oracle Driver, exists within the
$CATLINA-HOME/lib. I am able to successfully access my tables outside of the
connection pool so I know that I am getting to the driver.
Mike:
First thing I can tell you, quoting directly from the Tomcat Docs:
For Tomcat 6, unlike Tomcat 4.x, it is NOT recommended to place
Context elements directly in the server.xml file. This is because it
makes modifing the Context configuration more invasive since the main
conf/server.xml file cannot be reloaded without restarting Tomcat.
Now that I've said that, I'll admit I struggled with connection
pooling about a month ago. My problem was that I was trying to place
the driver jar file in either shared/lib or WEB-INF/lib. This was
incorrect and it needed to be in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib, where
Tomcat could manage it. If you read the classloader section on
tomcat.apache.org it will make sense why this is.
You mention that it is located it $CATALINA_HOME/lib [sic] - which
I'll assume is a typo, but it leads to ambiguity - did you mean
common/lib or shared/lib? Definitely move it to common/lib.
After trying to get my JDBC resources to work in
GlobalNamingResource without much luck. I ended up placing my
Resource definitions in META-INF/context.xml. I don't know if you
are trying to define a global pool for all your applications or can
live with a local app configuration, I made due with a local
configuration.
Regardless, here is my hello, world recipe:
In META-INF/context.xml file:
Resource name=jdbc/XEDB
type=javax.sql.DataSource
driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:ghg/ghg@//192.168.1.14:1521/XE
maxActive=100
maxIdle=30
maxWait=1
removeAbandoned=true
removeAbandonedTimeout=60
logAbandoned=true
/
I didn't mess around with setting username and password attributes, I
just provided them within the connection URL.
Finally, in a JSP, I have the following code:
(mind you this is just a 'hello, world' - I'd never actually recommend
this in real life)
jsp:directive.page import=javax.naming.* /
jsp:directive.page import=java.sql.* /
jsp:directive.page import=javax.sql.* /
%
InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) ic.lookup(java:comp/env/jdbc/XEDB);
Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
Statement s = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(select * from hello);
while(rs.next()) {
out.println(rs.getString(1) + br/);
}
s.close();
conn.close();
%
I deleted, for example, resource-ref's, and basically returned
conf/server.xml and WEB-INF/web.xml back to stock, which I had mucked
up from trying things googling had suggested I try.
Hopefully this works for you too!
BTW, classes12.jar is designed for JDK 1.2 and 1.3. From what you
mentioned, it is working just fine with your non-pooling code, but you
can download [1] a newer version (odbc14.jar comes with Oracle XE).

context-param vs env-entry. Ready? Fight!
I just started to help maintain an application that I didn't originally develop. It is using context-param elements and getInitParameter() to access application configuration items in web.xml. I have always used env-entry elements and JNDI to store and read these items, respectively. Refactoring the code to use env-entry's could be tedious, so I am looking for any advantages or disadvantages for using either method. One thing I did learn is that env-entry's can be modifed during runtime? Also, since they are using JNDI, if I needed to migrate the configuration items to a different datastore, reworking the code might be easier.

Hum, 'javac of tomcat' - Do you mean the JSP Compiler, or do you
really mean javac, which is used when say, compiling Servlets?
I am not aware of an environment variable ala JAVA_OPTS. However, if
you are using Ant, you can add a compilearg as a nested element
within the javac element.
For example:
javac srcdir=${src.home}
destdir=${build.home}/WEB-INF/classes
debug=${compile.debug}
deprecation=${compile.deprecation}
optimize=${compile.optimize}
classpath refid=compile.classpath/
compilerarg value=-Xlint /
/javac
If this isn't what you were looking for, please advise.

org.apache.catalina.ant.ReloadTask and JSP caching
I am experiencing an annoying (but not show-stopping) issue while
trying to use the Catalina ReloadTask Ant task.
I am currently using Ant 1.7, JDK 1.5 (OS X) and Tomcat 5.5.23.
Whenever I make a modification to a JSP, I usually do an 'ant reload'
to push the changes to the build/ directory and force the container to
reload the application.
However, when I refresh the JSP in the browser, the changes don't take
effect, even if I clear the browser cache, etc. I checked the content
of the build/ directory, the modified file has been copied there. It
is almost like the container isn't reloading the web app.
I recently moved from JDK 1.4.2, Tomcat 5.0.17 and Ant 1.6.5. I
didn't experience the problem with that configuration.
Any ideas? I've included my build.xml file at the bottom for reference.
thanks

Ok, I think I've isolated the problem, and it has nothing to do with
the ReloadTask. More in regards to the DeployTask, as explained
below.
It used to be while using my old environment [1], when I do an 'ant
list' it would tell me that it is running the web app from my local
build/ directory, for example
'/Users/brian/Projects/importest/build/'.
Now it appears that is actually 'deploys' the web application to the
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps directory.
So it seems that something has changed in the way localWar now
functions? I've even tried changing from 'value' to the 'location'
attribute when setting the build.home property, just in case.
property name=app.name value=importtest /
property name=app.pathvalue=/${app.name}/
property name=build.homelocation=${basedir}/build /
deploy
url=${manager.url}
username=${manager.username}
password=${manager.password}
path=${app.path}
localWar=file://${build.home}
/
Any advice? Thanks!

This makes it harder for other users to find relevant information when searching the lists. This is known as thread hijacking and is behaviour that is frowned upon on this list. Frequent offenders will be removed from the list. It should also be noted that many list subscribers automatically ignore any messages that hijack another thread. The correct procedure is to create a new message with a new subject. This will start a new thread. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Tomcat manager URL configuration for 2 tomcat instances, Apache + mod_jk
I'm still scheming up a way to handle this. One idea was to try and copy the manager web application from server/webapps and place it in to the regular webapps directory as manager-5028/ I don't know if this is any kind of security risk, but I'll worry about that after I get things working. Anyway, I also copied all the *.jar from server/lib and placed them in webapps/manager-5028/lib since I don't necessarily want to put them in shared/lib or common/lib in case I clobber something. It doesn't seem to work, I am getting a classNoFound Error stack trace, anyone got any ideas? java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.manager.HTMLManagerServlet org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader.loadClass(StandardClassLoader.java:854) org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader.loadClass(StandardClassLoader.java:721) org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:118) org.apache.coyote.tomcat5.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:160) org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler.invoke(JkCoyoteHandler.java:300) org.apache.jk.common.HandlerRequest.invoke(HandlerRequest.java:374) org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket.invoke(ChannelSocket.java:743) org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket.processConnection(ChannelSocket.java:675) org.apache.jk.common.SocketConnection.runIt(ChannelSocket.java:866) org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:683) java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:534) thanks -- brian On 7/8/06, Brian Munroe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am trying to set up an environment that has both a Tomcat 5.5.17 and a Tomcat 5.0.28 instance running, accessed via Apache 2.0.58 + mod_jk.

Re: Tomcat manager URL configuration for 2 tomcat instances, Apache + mod_jk
On 7/10/06, David Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: No, that won't work. Copying jar files from server/lib will cause classloader problems. There is a simpler way: 1. Rename manager.xml in conf/Catalina/localhost to manager-5028.xml 2. Change the path attribute in manager-5028.xml to manager-5028 3. Restart tomcat (or start if it's already stopped). 4. Change JkMount in httpd.conf to JkMount /manager-5028/html* tc5028 5. Do apachectl graceful to make httpd read the new config. When done, the manager for 5.0.28 will be http://localhost/manager-5028/html Nice, works like a champ.

Also if you do a 'netstat -a | grep -i listen' as root, it may show you what is running on which ports. If you see anything like: tcp0 0 localhost.localdom:4700 *:* LISTEN Then it is bound to localhost only, whereas something like tcp 0 0 *:www *:* Is bound to any interface. You might try checking that too, but I'm willing to bet you are being blocked a local OS firewall or something. -- brian - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
