Hi, all!
I'm using VelocityViewServlet in my webapp and I came across a weird
problem. Every time I open a new browser window and call my webapp URL,
the variables from my .vm are shown instead of the desired content (like
$varname). This only happens the on first access on a new browser
window. After I hit refresh in the browser everything is ok (I get the
desired content). Then, if I open a new instance of the browser, the
same thing happens all over again (the webserver is not shutdown between
the two actions).
That's odd. What do your servlet logs say on the first hit? (and
perhaps on the second also)?
I am using Tomcat 5.5. The servlet is declared in the web.xml like this:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
package.UsersServlet
</servlet-class>
i presume this is a subclass of VelocityViewServlet?
<init-param>
<param-name>org.apache.velocity.properties</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/velocity.properties</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/index.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
velocity.properties looks like this:
resource.loader = webapp
webapp.resource.loader.class =
org.apache.velocity.tools.view.servlet.WebappLoader
webapp.resource.loader.path = /templates
# Set cache to true for production
webapp.resource.loader.cache = false
webapp.resource.loader.modificationCheckInterval = 60
velocimacro.library = myMacro.vm
Can you please help me in getting the right content from the first page
access? What am I doing wrong (cause I must be doing something wrong)?
it's hard to tell with the information given. you can always try
comparing your application to the "simple" example app that comes with
VelocityTools and see where things are different. i can tell you that
this is not llikely to be a problem with the resource loader. it
seems like either your context is not populated on first request, or
else the template is being processed (if at all) by something besides
your VelocityViewServlet subclass.
also, what version of VelocityTools are you using? (probably not
relevant, but i'm curious.)
