getParameter in servlets

[Olga Uskova <ol...@common-sense.com>]

Hi,

I realize that this question has been already discussed, but I still
have not found a definite solution. I have Apache 1.3.9 + Tomcat 3.0
running on both Windows NT and RedHat Linux. I got all my servlets and
jsp pages working on Windows NT, but on Linux with compatible
configuration I get some "Broken Pipe" errors and my servlets and jsps
do not work. In all of them I am using getParameter method. I understand
that there are problems with getParameter.
How can I change my servlets to get them to run on Linux? 

Thank you,
Olga

Great! Again - it's probably a feature, not a bug. Do you get stack
traces? ( you shouldn't if the pipe is broken outside your servlet, i.e if
you get a stack trace and your servlet is not in the trace - please send
me the trace with the line numbers inside ).

A broken pipe means something happened - either the user clicked "stop" or
the network connection is bad. It's important to report this - it it
happens frequently that means you have problems and you should investigate
it ! It's up to you to ignore them, but tomcat needs to report.

I'm getting the "broken pipe" error on Solaris as well.

About Broken Pipe:

The "Broken Pipe" message is a Linux "feature" ( and a NT bug ). 
The pipe is broken on both, but the event is ignored on NT.

We do report the error because you might want to know that it happened. 
You shouldn't see any stack trace - but if you do, please report the bug
using the bug system so we can fix it ( use JAVA_COMPILER=none, we need
line numbers )

About "servlets not working on Linux": if you want this fixed we need to
be able to reproduce it ( or a magic ball ).

Please use the bug system if you really care about the bug fix. Don't
forget you have the full code of tomcat, and you are in the best position
to help - you can already reproduce the bug. Adding extra informations
like what you think is wrong or maybe a PATCH will help a lot.
