mailing from quartz and a direct action

I have a direct action that runs from a curl job, but I would like to be able to run the same job as a quartz job. Somehow I can not seem to find the magic combination, as mailing from the DA works perfect, but when I call the DA from a quartz job, the whole thing fails. Does anyone have a

The biggest things you lose is the built in load balancing and the javamonitor. You will need to spawn your own instances and load balance them externally. Deployment turns into a single war file that is easy to do. It is much easier to deploy a war versus setting up a wo deployment. The

When you say you're running the DA using a Quartz job, I'm guessing they're both running in the same application and you're using Quartz to send an http request. If that's the case, the most likely cause for your fault is that you're not running with concurrent request handling enabled, thus

Thanks for the reply Dov. Apparently Glassfish has a very nice GUI, so I understand it will replace JavaMonitor nicely. However, I have no idea if mod_servlet allows for load balancing. Why is a war file easier to deploy than a woa? And we don't gain anything platform-wise, WO runs fine on

Is it possible to get at the server name without a request/context? It doesn't seem likely but I thought it worth asking. Right now I'm storing it at the application level when the first request is made. Alternatively, it can be handled by a property. Both of those seem extremely inelegant
