Hi, Tomcat 4.0.4 on Windows
i am one of these IDEA guys who frequently want to debug servlets in the IDE. IntelliJ suggests to integrate tomcat into the "RUN" proccess so that you can test servlets and get the output to IDE console and of course being able to add breakpoints and stuff. Here is the startup for IDEA (this could be used for any other IDE also IMO) Main Class: org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap VM Parms: -Djava.endorsed.dirs="c:\development\java\tomcat\bin;c:\development\java\tomcat\common\lib" -Dcatalina.base="c:\development\java\tomcat" -Dcatalina.home="c:\development\java\tomcat" -Djava.io.tmpdir="c:\development\java\tomcat\temp" Program Parms: start WorkDir: c:\development\java\tomcat In fact everything seems to work fine, until you reach some special issues: - using /manager to reload, stop/start web-application - using JNDI to obtain DataSources or whatever the first issue is heavy, cause after i have done changes to the webapp, i normally stop the webapp via /manager (with ANT task), copy the new classes to the webapp folder and then do a "start" via /manager. And again each log says that /manager did a good job. I ve also done it with "reload" of course. But the realitiy is, that tomcat (still running under IDEA) is still using the old classes. the second issue with JDNI is also somehow crazy, i am just not able to do a lookup on any object. its for sure no config thing, cause when i use the same insallation and start it on the shell, everything works as exptected. Now i am wondering where is the difference between calling "bootstrap.jar start" on the DOS shell and calling the same via some tool. Has anyone experience with tomcat integration in IDEs especially in IDEA? Or has someone ideas what could go wrong? thx --- greetings from Marc Logemann Homebase @ www.logemann.info -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
