I've a webapp that is being deployed to a tomee server. This webapp has a META-INF/context.xml file and its content is as of below:
<Context>
<Loader className="org.apache.catalina.loader.VirtualWebappLoader" virtualClasspath="/apache-tomee-plus-1.7.2/someProperties;" />
<JarScanner scanAllDirectories="true" />
</Context>
Notice that the Loader element's virtualClasspath attr has a value of /apache-tomee-plus-1.7.2/someProperties;, where /apache-tomee-plus-1.7.2 is ready the tomcat home. Do you know if there a way to refer to the tomcat-home without hard code the actual path name?
It looks like I can use ${catalina.home} to refer to tomcat-home directory.

I'm trying to install Openfire 4.0.2 . My problem is that after restarting Openfire and pressing Admin Console I always see Setup Page. What should I do to fix it?
This is my openfire.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--
This file stores bootstrap properties needed by Openfire.
Property names must be in the format: "prop.name.is.blah=value"
That will be stored as:
<prop>
<name>
<is>
<blah>value</blah>
</is>
</name>
</prop>
Most properties are stored in the Openfire database. A
property viewer and editor is included in the admin console.

Thank you.
In a file like this you miss the database part, so probably you never finished the setup really.
However there are 2 flags you must add:
in openfire.xml <setup>true</setup>
as child of <jive> tag
and in ofProperty table of database
INSERT INTO OFPROPERTY (NAME,PROPVALUE) VALUES ('setup','true');
The answer is, you have to uninstall Openfire and after delete Openfire folder which is situated in C:/ProgramFiles(x86)/ and reinstall Openfire.
The setup procedure of Openfire will, if it runs successfully, modify the content of the openfire.xml file. The most typical reason for this to fail is a file permission problem. Make sure that the user that is executing Openfire is allowed to read & write all files under the Openfire home folder.
I have deployed a application in Apache tomcat. Suppose name of project is abc (or deployed from abc.war).
I access it using url :=> http://localhost:8080/abc/
But I want to redirect or have aliases for web app. like
http://localhost:8080/abc/
http://localhost:8080/abc1/
http://localhost:8080/abc2/
http://localhost:8080/abc3/
All the above reference to same Web-app. How can I do it and I do not want to copy paste the folder as many times and renaming it.
~Thanks
The best solution is not using a warfile.
Copy all the content into a specified directory (i.e. \user\abc) and then you can either configure all the contexts in two ways.
one xml for every context to map, by putting it into your: %CATALINA_HOME%\conf\Catalina\localhost. Keep in mind that the name of the xml file will be the mapping of your webapp, but you can redefine it with the path attribute inside the xml. In your case you have to produce abc.xml, abc1.xml, abc2.xml and their content should be something like:
abc.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context docBase="\user\abc" path="abc" reloadable="false"/>
abc1.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context docBase="\user\abc" path="abc1" reloadable="false"/>
you can edit directly the %CATALINA_HOME%\conf\server.xml by inserting, inside the <Host ...> tag, the contexts definitions, something like this:
<Host ...>
<Context docBase="\user\abc" path="abc" reloadable="false"/>
<Context docBase="\user\abc" path="abc1" reloadable="false"/>
</Host>
If you need to provide database datasource information to a context, just add the tag Resource to the context definition itself (either in an xml file or in server.xml),here you go with a sample:
<Context docBase="\user\abc" path="abc" reloadable="false">
<Resource auth="Container" description="DataSource"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
maxActive="4"
maxIdle="2"
maxWait="5000"
name="jdbc/myJNDIname"
password="mypass"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:#host:port:SID"
username="myuser"/>
</Context>
If you need this last part, just use it, obviously, for every context you like to duplicate.
Hope it helps.
the easiest way is create soft link directory of the app, like this
ln -s $PWD/abc $PWD/abc1
ln -s $PWD/abc $PWD/abc2
ln -s $PWD/abc $PWD/abc3
We have an internal Glassfish 3.1 server where we have Jenkins deploy war-artifacts directly without any additional configuration.
This results in numerous rather verbose URL's like
http://xxx:5280/xxx_YYYY-52.20120824.0-SNAPSHOT/
and I would like to write a small ROOT.war (binding to "/") which simply lists all URL's in the current domain - preferably along with the <web-app><description>.... field.
This only needs to work with Glassfish. Is there a simple Glassfish API providing the information I need?
You can parse domain.xml. There is information about deployed apps, context root ... smth like this
<application context-root="/permit-1.0" location="${com.sun.aas.instanceRootURI}/applications/permit-1.0/" name="permit-1.0" object-type="user">
<property name="org.glassfish.ejb.container.application_unique_id" value="88379353331728384" />
<property name="defaultAppName" value="permit-1.0" />
<module name="permit-1.0">
<engine sniffer="ejb" />
<engine sniffer="security" />
<engine sniffer="web" />
</module>
</application>
I am currently trying to use embeded Tomcat for my application and am trying to set it up to get the URL of the http request.
Some Background:
I am using the same code as in the first answer for the post here : Howto embed Tomcat 6?
The only change I have made is :
private String catalinaHome = "/home/xyz/tomcat"; // This dir is created and has full access permissions
Also , I am looking at: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/catalina/docs/api/org/apache/catalina/startup/Embedded.html
There are no server.xml and tomcat-users.xml that I could find, so I created a tomcat-users.xml since I was getting an exception :Memory database file /home/xyz/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml cannot be read .
tomcat-users.xml:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
<role rolename="tomcat"/>
<role rolename="role1"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>
<user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
<user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
</tomcat-users>
The code uses container.setRealm(new MemoryRealm());
It appears from here : http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/catalina/funcspecs/fs-memory-realm.html that I should have a server.xml file and there should already be one created by default.
1] Do I need to create a server.xml, what should be the default in it ?
I have put a file with default from here : http://www.akadia.com/download/soug/tomcat/html/tomcat_server_xml.html , but just want to know what is the right thing to do ?
2]When I access http://localhost:8089/mywebapp/index.html, all i get is The requested resource () is not available, though I have an index.html page at the "webappDir" in the code
3] My only need from the embedded tomcat is to intercept so as to get the URL passed to tomcat in my code. I can then parse the URL [do my stuff] and then create a http payload and send an http response back.
I would appreciate any pointers, especially for 3] ?
Thanks!
Ok, for your first question, yo do not need server.xml. If you check the code of your initial post they are setting the parameters there. So that is what server.xml would encapsulate. In reality what happens is that Tomcat will parse server.xml for the properties you are defining on your java file where you instanciate the catalina call to start. But since it is embedded you are setting all those parameters on you class instead.
For your second question, check your logs directory and see what is being parsed. Something is happening after your service starts because it should already redirect you once you call the port. either way, just try http://localhost:8089 and see what you get back in return from tomcat. It should give you some kind of response back from the server itself.
if you do it like this "http://localhost:8089/mywebapp/index.html" you are trying to access a created context, and that might not be configured correctly, but that is just a guess right now.
Try this first and tell me what you get back. we can troubleshoot from this point and see if I can help more in that sense.
Quick question, is this windows or linux you are installing on?
If it is linux the configurations filea are located usually on /etc/tomcat6. (at least on ubuntu they are). Reply back with the version you have installed. I might be able to help you out.
I guess I should also elaborate here a little more. Tomcat is a service in linux as well, so in ubuntu you have to start tomcat in order to access it.
$: sudo service tomcat6 start
then it starts tomcat on port 8080 (usually if not changed) of your localhost. hence you type localhost:8080 to access the website for configuration of tomcat that gives you a It works prompt for you.
Let me know if you have more questions, I will try to respond to the best of my knowledge
Can I use NLog in a WCF Service? I am trying to but cannot get it to work.
First I set up a simple configuration in a Windows Forms application to check that I was setting up correctly and this wrote the log file fine (I am writing to a network location using name and not IP address).
I then did exactly the same thing in the WCF Service. It did not work.
To check permissions I then added some code to use a TextWriter.
TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter(fileName);
tw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now);
tw.Close();
This worked OK so I know I can write to the location.
Check that your NLog.config file is in the same directory as your .svc file and NOT the Bin directory.
If you've just added the config file to the WCF project, then published it you will probably find your config file has been copied to the bin directory which is why NLog can't find it. Move it to up a level then restart the website hosting the service (to make sure the change is picked up).
This had me stumped for a while this morning!
Put your NLog config in the web.config file. Like so:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="nlog" type="NLog.Config.ConfigSectionHandler, NLog"/>
</configSections>
. . . (lots of web stuff)
<nlog>
<targets>
<target name="file" xsi:type="File" fileName="${basedir}/logs/nlog.log"/>
</targets>
<rules>
<logger name="*" minlevel="Trace" writeTo="file" />
</rules>
</nlog>
</configuration>
See my comment to your original question for how to turn on NLog's internal logging.
To turn on NLog's internal logging, modify the top of you NLog config to look like this:
<nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.mono2.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
autoReload="true"
internalLogLevel="Trace"
internalLogFile="nlog_log.log"
>
The key parts are internalLogLevel and internalLogFile.
You can also set internalLogToConsole to true or false to direct the internal logging to the console.
There is another setting, throwExceptions, that tells NLog whether or not to throw exceptions. Ordinarily, this is set to false once logging is successfully configured and working. You can set it to true to help determine if your problem is due to an NLog error.
So, if you had all of those options enabled, the top of your NLog configuration might look like this:
<nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.mono2.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
autoReload="true"
internalLogLevel="Trace"
internalLogFile="nlog_log.log"
internalLogToConsole="true"
throwExceptions="true"
>
My first guess is that NLog is not finding the config information. Are you using an external config file (NLog.config) or "inline" configuration (in your app.config or web.config)? In your project, is(are) your config file(s) marked (in Properties) as Copy Always?
