[Veltools] WebappLoader not loading
Say folks -
I have the velstruts demo running just fine. I then managed to pull
the necessary bits from the demo into an existing app and get that
running. Next I extended VelocityViewServlet into a version that does a
two-pass render (aka LayoutVelocityViewServlet) and that ran (source
copied at the bottom).
But now I can't seem to get veltools working in another app. What's
worse, the original veltools app won't run either. Aaaaack. (I honestly
don't know what I changed that caused the working app to go bad, I have
tried to step back, but without success.)
The only thing I can find that looks wrong is that the WebappLoader is
not initializing in my app.
I'm using Tomcat 3.2.1 supplemented with JAXP1.1, crimson.jar -- started
up from inside my IDE (tomcat startup shown directly below).
I also included the error I get when the view attempts to render my *.vm
file, and a snippet from the WORKING velstruts demo app log.
Helpful suggestions are appreciated. ;-)
Cheers,
Tim

This is strange. (Not the stdout - that might be just interim lazyness...)
If the config is right, then it should be going to servlet log. It uses the
ServletLogger (or whatever) and I know that works very well. I use it a
lot.
Can you send us the velocity.log to show us what is going on?

Aside - reading/deleting/gritting-my-teeth over 180 posts from the last

I pulled my hair out on this one for quite a while, and finally decided
to change web.xml to load the Velocity servlet FIRST, before our custom
extended Struts servlet. That did the trick -- the log WebappLoader
loads, logging happens, but 'velocity.log' file is NOT created.
I'm not sure of the real culprit, but I'll reply again if I do find it.

FYI - I now have the 'old' version of my app running again using
Veltools and webappLoader, so I'll start going piece by piece to see
what's different between this app and the one that isn't loading
correctly.

I guarantee, it does produce the "velocity.log" file. This is running in
tomcat, but note that it is started up slightly differently than a
standalone server. It is run as a cmd line app, with a specific
classpath, and a specific server.xml config that sets the context path
to the project 'content' directory.
Incidentally(?) I've also noticed that sometimes AvalonKit is used, and
sometimes log4j. Log4J is always in the classpath, so I can only guess
that this is because of trying different versions of the VelocityXXX.jar
w/ and w/o dependancies.
And I've also noticed that while the init mesg. are sent to
velocity.log, the toolbox startup mesgs. appear to be going to stdout.

Nope. The full text of the LayoutVelocityViewServlet was included - I
only overrode mergeTemplate(). That's all, truly.

The code is still there. But I also stepped back and tried using just
the VelocityViewServlet and still had the same problem with webappLoader
not initializing.

Yeah...I've been trying to figure out what magic it takes to get that

I've tried using the jars from the velstruts/WEB-INF/lib as well as
nightly builds from both velocity and velocity-tools. I noticed that the
velocity-1.3XX.jar is different between the two.

Tim,
here a few guesses:
Your mail contains the output of velocity.log. Actually our VelocityViewServlet
implementation does not produce any velocity.log. Instead the log output
is redirected to the log of the servlet container. Now, this leads me to
the conclusion that you modified/overwrote method initVelocity() of
VelocityViewServlet. That is not a problem per se, but in that same method
is the code to load the WebAppLoader. Please verify that this code is still
there.
If the WebAppLoader is successfully loaded, it produces the following
log output:
[2002/04/04 14:57:47] Velocity [info] Resource Loader Instantiated: org.apache.velocity.tools.view.servlet.WebappLoader
[2002/04/04 14:57:47] Velocity [info] WebappLoader : initialization starting.
[2002/04/04 14:57:47] Velocity [info] WebappLoader : initialization complete.
