for those of you who want to run their oracle, beware that oracle will grab the port 8080 from your system (the tomcat port) you can either change tomcat (conf/server.xml) or oracle (see scripts below) as sysdba execute call dbms_xdb.cfg_update(updateXML(dbms_xdb.cfg_get(), '/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/httpconfig/http-port/text()',8081))
then restart Oracle, reference below http://www.interealm.com/technotes/roby/xdb_ports.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Longley, Andrew" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 05, 2003 2:27 PM Subject: Tomcat 4 losing session (may be related to Win XP) Hi all, I've come across a situation I can't figure out and I'm wondering if it has to do with the fact that this is the first time we've installed Tomcat on Windows XP Prof. Symptom: Tomcat loses session. If you set up a very simple two JSP process where page 1 stuffs (setAttribute) something into the session, and page 2 displays it, the value comes back as null Tests: if I copy the two JSPs to the examples directory included in the Tomcat distribution, the pages perform properly. If I create my own context and execute the pages from there, the getAttribute returns null. I created the context by duplicating the context in the server.xml file and pretty much just changing the codebase. Other environment info: running behind Apache2 (latest), on port 8082 (http) and 8009 (AJP13) because Oracle Servlet Engine shows up on port 8080 (side note: anyone have info on how to get the flying pig to go away when you've uninstalled the Oracle HTTP server???); JDK 1.4.*, and this is Tomcat 4 (latest). The exact same set up works fine on Windows 2003 and Windows 2000 Prof. And this machine works fine as a client to the server running on any other machine, so it's not a cookie issue I don't think. Am I missing something obvious? Could it be permission-related? Something in the way the session data is stored on disk? Sure would appreciate any advice.
