| 05:37.22 | karstensrage | diablo-jdk1.5.0, tomcat-6.0.13, FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE |
| 05:39.03 | jasonb | Yes, Tomcat looks in webappdir/WEB-INF/lib (not "libs"!) for loading classes from jar files that reside in that directory. |

| 06:02.28 | karstensrage | oh yes its lib |
| 06:02.32 | karstensrage | not libs |
| 06:02.34 | karstensrage | hmm |
| 06:02.48 | karstensrage | well it doesnt work and I have no clue why |
| 06:02.59 | karstensrage | just says the servlet is not available |
| 06:03.25 | karstensrage | no other info |
| 06:09.01 | jasonb | Do you have your servlet declared in a package? |
| 06:09.27 | jasonb | I think it won't work if it's not. |
| 06:11.20 | karstensrage | what do you mean package? |
| 06:12.10 | karstensrage | the servlet-name is HelloWorldApplication |
| 06:12.36 | karstensrage | the servlet-class is wicket.protocol.http.WicketServlet |
| 06:12.43 | karstensrage | which is in the jar file in the lib directory |
| 06:12.56 | karstensrage | it passes a param applicationClassName |
| 06:13.07 | karstensrage | with my classes in WEB-INF/classes |
| 06:14.39 | karstensrage | when it says it cant find the servlet, is there any logging that would tell me more info? |
| 06:15.45 | karstensrage | oh |
| 06:15.48 | karstensrage | hmm |
| 06:19.59 | jasonb | Start your Tomcat JVM with the -verbose:class switch. |
| 06:20.32 | jasonb | You'll get a flood of output, but you can then search that to find what it's doing when it goes to load your servlet class. |
| 06:21.13 | jasonb | It sounds to me (so far) that you have your servlet installed in your webapp properly. But, you should put your web.xml file on a paste server so we can have a look at how you have this configured. |
| 06:39.06 | karstensrage | i got a little further, localhost.2007-06-15.log had the error |

| 19:59.24 | used | ok here comes my question. I'm new to Tomcat and for the class assignment we were supposed to use Tomcat 4.x. I installed it under Windows. |
| 20:00.27 | used | I wrote a little "DateAndTime" servlet which returns date and time like in a little "HelloWorld" program, I packed it into a war file and copied it into webapps and it worked fine |
| 20:01.05 | used | accessing it with localhost/DateAndTime worked fine |
| 20:02.45 | used | now the actual question : how can I change the context path within the war-file ? Is it possible ? I researched a lot and only came up with solutions where the server.xml was edited. But the class assignment states that the path should be changed in the war-file |
| 20:03.11 | used | I would like to do a path like localhost/Folder1/Folder2/DateAndTime |
| 20:03.21 | used | I'd appreciate an answer ! |
| 20:09.47 | used | sorry forgot "all three" , although Java version doesn't really matter : Java: 1.6.0 , TC:4.1.36, Win XP |
| 20:37.52 | jasonb | used: The class assignment was obviously written by someone who does not understand Java servlet web applications. The servlet specification/standard does not allow doing what you've been assigned to do. |
| 20:49.10 | used | thanks for the answer, so what are the options to create a path like above ? server.xml editing ? |

| 21:05.29 | jasonb | hi ScotMac. |
| 21:06.37 | jasonb | used: Well, you can edit server.xml (suggested), or you can add a file to conf/Catalina/localhost/ that is named "Folder1#Folder2#DateAndTime.xml", and inside that xml file put the <Context> for the webapp, with no path= attribute setting. |
| 21:06.59 | jasonb | used: The latter is far more of a hack, and even though it will work, it's not a great way to configure it. |
| 21:07.07 | jasonb | used: The right way is to change server.xml. |

| 21:31.31 | cohonen | i get some exceptions i would like to see a stacktrace of |
| 21:35.27 | jasonb | response.sendError(SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, e); |
| 21:59.56 | vinse | can tomcat deploy compiled jsp's? there's some trick i remember reading where you can put them in your .war's META-INF or something? |
| 22:00.48 | jasonb | Nah.. you put the class files where you'd normally put class files (compiled JSPs are just class files).. and you put auto-generated servlet mappings to each one in web.xml. |
| 22:01.16 | jasonb | In the new book, it carefully shows how to do this. |
| 22:02.13 | vinse | hmm, it must be oracle AS that has that trick |
| 22:02.40 | jasonb | "4.3.3.3 Pre-compiling JSPs at Build Time Using JspC" |
| 22:03.18 | vinse | and you can configure tc to never check if they need re-compilation? |
| 22:03.21 | jasonb | Well, the Tomcat/JspC way is servlet spec compliant, and even servlet container implementation independent. |
| 22:03.51 | jasonb | Well, once they're deployed as regular servlets, they're not actually JSPs anymore, in the *.jsp sense, so there's no jsp file to check against. :) |
| 22:04.03 | vinse | oic |
| 22:04.10 | jasonb | They're just regular servlets at deployment time. |
| 22:04.31 | jasonb | Also, the JSP servlet is not involved in serving them. |
| 22:04.44 | vinse | hmm, so will that affect things like tiles? |
| 22:05.04 | jasonb | I don't see how it could. |
| 22:05.28 | vinse | ok so they still look like jsp to everyone else |
| 22:05.31 | vinse | just they're not |
| 22:05.34 | jasonb | They're really served like they would be if they were .jsp files, technically. |
| 22:05.51 | vinse | i think i get you |
| 22:06.06 | jasonb | They're just not JSP *files* anymore, everything else is the same, except maybe they'll serve slightly faster since they're already compiled and loaded. |
| 22:06.34 | vinse | this technique is mentioned in the spec? or just spec compliant? |
| 22:07.17 | jasonb | Umm, I don't remember whether it is mentioned in the JSP specification, but I don't think it's mentioned in the Servlet spec. It's probably not mentioned in either one.. that's just my guess. |
| 22:07.32 | jasonb | But, the way JspC does it, it is servlet spec compliant. |
| 22:07.42 | jasonb | err, both JSP and servlet spec compliant that is. |

| 22:31.02 | vinse | jasonb: who auto-generates the servlet mappings? JspC? |
| 22:33.48 | vinse | nm, answer is yes, jspc ;) |
| 22:39.40 | jasonb | yup. |
| 22:51.12 | jasonb | vinse: JspC, the Ant task, has a bug that prevents it from properly merging its auto generated servlet mappings into an existing web.xml file. I even contributed a patch to the Tomcat committers that fixed it (it is a very obscure bug that is difficult to find and fix, but I spent the time on it and fixed it), however, the committers ignored my patch (a usual occurrence, which is why I don't send them patches anymore). |
| 22:51.57 | jasonb | So, it cannot merge in its mappings. If you need to do that, I know of another trick that can make it work. |
| 23:25.29 | stork | The BASEDIR environment variable is not defined correctly |
| 23:25.29 | stork | This environment variable is needed to run this program |
