| 01:12.04 | xid | Java newbie here, I am modifying files in Crystal Server's huge webapps folder. Restarting Tomcat takes a very long time, making debugging very difficult. Any simple solutions? |
| 01:13.27 | whartung | I don't know anything about Crystal Server. What kind of changes are you making? |
| 01:14.11 | xid | for the time being, think of it as a generic bloated java webapp |
| 01:14.25 | whartung | but what kind of changes are you making to it? |
| 01:14.25 | xid | I'm just adding a custom JSP file |
| 01:14.36 | whartung | changing a JSP should not require a restart |
| 01:14.40 | xid | looking for solutions to speed up my debug process |
| 01:15.19 | whartung | just change the JSP and reload it in your browser (or trigger the code that forwards to it...) |
| 01:15.29 | whartung | it'll (should) compile on the fly |
| 01:16.09 | xid | Then I wonder where it is building the output files. I noticed it builds files in a 'work' folder, and modifying the files in either 'work' or 'webapps' does not affect the webpage output until I have restarted Tomcat. |
| 01:16.43 | whartung | the 'work' folder appears after restart? |
| 01:16.58 | xid | everything inside the 'work' folder, yes |
| 01:17.25 | whartung | yea, I can't say. |
| 01:17.27 | xid | some guides I was reading suggest emptying 'work' and restarting tomcat every time I modify a file in 'webapps' |
| 01:17.47 | xid | but I am thinking there must be an easier way.. there's probably an extension framework I should be using |
| 01:17.53 | xid | for Crystal |
| 01:18.30 | whartung | yea, dunno. |

| 01:28.22 | xid | this note on a related discussion mentions "You need to make sure that you update files in the appropriate places as well, a redeploy will blow away your files if you didn't update BOE.war." |
| 01:28.43 | xid | I haven't had that problem yet |
| 01:28.50 | whartung | that's a different problem |
| 01:29.08 | whartung | I assume you're updating the files in the exploded directory, not in the WAR file |
| 01:29.22 | whartung | you;re simply restarting tomcat, not redeploying the applications |
| 01:30.54 | xid | either restarting Tomcat, or hitting the webpage after the restart is causing a redeploy, or some other major slowdown in this application |
| 01:31.18 | whartung | if you remove the WAR file, it can't redeploy. |

| 01:31.45 | syncsys | hi |
| 01:31.49 | whartung | but a redeploy is simply removing the existing directory, and exploding the WAR file, then starting the app |
| 01:32.10 | whartung | if the war is HUGE (or has a LOT of files) then the deploy itself will be slow (based on your disk speeds). |
| 01:32.19 | whartung | but it shouldn't be happening over and over |
| 01:32.49 | syncsys | how can I change the port to 80 from 8080 in tomcat.? I have read many google results but I never find the .xml files in the said directories in ubuntu (latest version) |
| 01:32.55 | xid | what happens if I edit a JSP in the war itself, using Vim, while the server is running? |
| 01:33.04 | whartung | the WAR is a ZIP file |
| 01:33.08 | xid | right |
| 01:33.12 | whartung | if you change the WAR file, it will redeploy on start up |
| 01:33.20 | xid | i see |
| 01:33.28 | whartung | if the server is running |
| 01:33.31 | whartung | and the war changes |
| 01:33.36 | whartung | the server will redeploy it |
| 01:33.56 | whartung | you should be able to change whatever you are changing int the WAR in the exploded directory |
| 01:34.17 | whartung | I have to run…good luck! |
| 01:34.23 | xid | thnx |
| 01:37.11 | syncsys | is it server.xml? where is it located. its not in usr/share/tomcat7/ |
| 01:44.58 | syncsys | in /etc/tomcat7/server.xml i changed port to 80. services tomcat7 restart still opening on 8080 and not 80 |

| 18:25.07 | joshbeci | hi all. quick question, should tomcat 7.0 releases be compatible with potential future releases like 7.1 and so on? trying to plan some channels for tomcat 7 RPMs |
| 18:26.04 | whartung | compatible how? |
| 18:27.21 | joshbeci | if i were to have a system with an rpm for say, 7.0.32 and if a release for something like 7.1.0 was released, would updating between the two be a problem? i guess it's a multi faceted question |
| 18:27.53 | whartung | yea, but most likely not. The meat of what tomcat is and how it works hasn't really fundamentally changed since 5.x |
| 18:28.13 | whartung | it's mostly more been tracking the JEE standards than impacting dramatic change on Tomcat in the large itself. |
| 18:28.33 | whartung | (notably how it's deployed and installed is pretty much unchanged) |
| 18:39.26 | joshbeci | ok |
| 18:39.53 | joshbeci | thanks. that pretty much answers my question |

| 22:45.36 | whartung | BLZbubba: that doesn't make much sense. If you're getting a stack trace, then Java is working. What's the full stack trace? |

| 22:58.39 | BLZbubba | seems like java itself is probably AFU |
| 23:02.42 | BLZbubba | weird, i put jre6 back and got the same thing but with a minimal stack trace |
