Re: transaction manager cannot load in Tomcat 6

2007-05-23 Thread tmo256

Matt:
I got it working, and I think I figured this out. What I believe happens is
that the ClassNotFound Exception is a little misleading: the JOTM classes
ARE found, but the CommonsLogging class needed by the JOTM factory is NOT. I
believe we had a different version of the necessary jar in the classpath,
and ultimately just needed to make sure the commons-logging.jar was
highest in the classpath.

FYI, I did need to recompile using Java 1.6 the Carol jars (ow_carol.jar)
used by JOTM in order to avoid the RMI method exception (noted by several on
the JOTM list).

Re: transaction manager cannot load in Tomcat 6

2007-05-21 Thread tmo256

Hi: Thanks for trying to help out. Let me clarify a couple of points.

The main thing is that my problem is very specifically with the transaction
manager factory; I have successfully set up other dhcp connection pools
(non-transactional).

With the failure to initialize, I moved
all needed jars into CATALINA_BASE/bin, after first trying
 CATALINA_BASE/lib. 
...
I think you should keep the JAR files in the lib folder and not the bin
folder. 

As originally stated, I've tried placing the putting the jars in that
folder, with no difference.

I have configured everything just as in Tomcat 5.5, but there
 seems to be a change in the classloading structure
... 
I would try to connect directly without using JNDI first, to make sure
a direct connection works. 

Because these connections are configured in 5.5 exactly as here (in 6), I
know the connection is correct.

This is what's configured as a global resource in server.xml
...
Where have you placed the above Resource / tag ? 

As stated, I the tag is a global resource and the resourceLink referecing it
is in the default context.xml context.

In addition to the configuration checks I've mentioned in my previous
post, also check that you've configured the web.xml correctly. 

Considering that the main error I've listed is a ClassNotFoundDef, I
question whether my web.xml configuration could change that, though I will
certainly give it a try. Actually: the rest of my Oracle connections work
without any references in web.xml; my understanding from the documentation
was this was optional. You need either the web.xml reference OR a context
reference.

Thanks so much for trying to help, though. Any further suggestions would be
welcome.

Thanks,
Teresa



 I've been trying to use Tomcat 6 (with Java 6) on FC6, but I cannot seem
 to get the third-party transaction manager integrated as in previous
 versions. I have configured everything just as in Tomcat 5.5, but there
 seems to be a change in the classloading structure, which simply
 prevents the classes from loading.
  
 Originally, I had the all the necessary Objectweb (JOTM is my
 transaction manager) in a directory outside of the CATALINA_BASE but had
 appended them to the beginning of the classpath in setclasspath.sh,
 which is how it currently works. With the failure to initialize, I moved
 all needed jars into CATALINA_BASE/bin, after first trying
 CATALINA_BASE/lib. My suspicion is that there's a class that is needed
 by the Objectweb DataSourceFactory that was previously included but is
 no longer found, due to a change in the classloading architecture; but,
 that's almost purely theoretical.
  
 This is the error from catalina.out:
  
 WARNING: Failed to register in JMX: javax.naming.NamingException: Could
 not create resource factory instance [Root exception is
 java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class
 org.objectweb.jndi.DataSourceFactory]
  
 This is what's configured as a global resource in server.xml:
 Resource name=AdminCop
 min=1
 max=1
 auth=Container
 type=javax.sql.DataSource
 factory=org.objectweb.jndi.DataSourceFactory
driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
 username=xxx
 password=xxx
 url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost::XXX /
  
 I have, of course, read the appropriate JNDI How-To, but, as I say, I
 have configured all resources, properties, paths, etc, exactly the same
 as in Tomcat 5.5 with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  
 Thanks!

Sorry I couldn't be of help here, the only other thing I can think of
is that the CLASSPATH may be partially correct or incorrect.

It is better to not set the systemwide classpath. It is sufficient to
set the JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE or CATALINA_HOME in the system
environment variables, then Tomcat detects the other JAR files.

I don't know if you already consulted this list:
http://www.objectweb.org/wws/lists/projects/jotm , I'm just posting
the link in case you didn't.


Thanks,
Teresa

I don't know anything about Objectweb or JOTM transaction manager, but
just trying to point a few corrections with the configuration.

I think you should keep the JAR files in the lib folder and not the bin folder.

I did configure MySQL JDBC Datasource (for connection pooling)
successfully, so I have some basic idea about it how it is supposed to
be configured for Oracle and MySQL.


My suspicion is that there's a class that is needed
by the Objectweb DataSourceFactory that was previously included but is
no longer found, due to a change in the classloading architecture; but,
that's almost purely theoretical.

This is the error from catalina.out:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class
org.objectweb.jndi.DataSourceFactory]


I would try to connect directly without using JNDI first, to make sure

This is what's configured as a global resource in server.xml:
Resource name=AdminCop
min=1

type=javax.sql.DataSource
factory=org.objectweb.jndi.DataSourceFactory
   driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
username=xxx
password=xxx
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost::XXX /



Where have you placed the above Resource / tag ?

It should be placed either inside your applications Context node
(please note that it is possible that your Context node could be
defined outside server.xml, in that case you would place it where ever
the Context node is defined --- may be in server.xml or may be
outside)

, or in GlobalNamingResources node.

I'm not sure if you can use min and max attributes above. I couldn't
find any attributes with those names here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dbcp/configuration.html


I have, of course, read the appropriate JNDI How-To, but, as I say, I
have configured all resources, properties, paths, etc, exactly the same
as in Tomcat 5.5 with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
