2 simple questions
Hi all
I'm a new guy here, I know few about velocity. So I have 2 simple questions:
1. How to make VTL work?
I download velocity, and build successfully. then I create an HTML file with the following code
html>
<body>
#set( $foo = "Velocity" )
Hello $foo World!
</body>
<html>
but when I view it in IE, it shows #set($foo = "Velocity" ) Hello $foo World!, rather than Hello Velocity World.
2. For those examples, such as example1, I can only view the result by executing example1.bat, How can I apply it to my web site?
Thanks a lot for your help!

When you add velocity code to an HTML file, we call that a Velocity
template. These templates need to be processed by the Velocity template
engine. For web based work, you need to work with a servlet engine like
tomcat for this to happen. Do this :
1) Go to Tomcat's web page http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html
and read about it.
2) Download jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1.tgz from
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.2.1/bin/
3) Install and test. The tomcat documentation is pretty good, and there
is a large user community - so any problems you have should be quickly
answered by them. The mailing list you would want for that is
tomcat-dev (http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html and follow the
directions.)
4) Once you have tomcat installed and working, you will need to make a
servlet for use by tomcat. In velocity, build the servlet example by
typing
build/build.sh examples
and then go look in the examples/servlet_example1 directory.
5) To install this servlet :
* Note : the following only applies to tomcat and I am just making
this up as I go along, so there may be a few problems - I will make sure
it's right, and then add these instructions to the documentation along
with a complete WAR somewhere if I remember
** Note : to make this easier, I modified the
examples/servlet_example1/SampleServlet.java code to be self configuring
re the webapp root for finding templates and putting the log file, so
please get the latest copy from CVS
- make a new 'webapp' : under tomcat's webapps directory, make a new
directory structure
webapp/
velexample
velexample/WEB-INF
velexample/WEB-INF/lib
velexample/WEB-INF/classes
- put the velocity-1.0.1.jar (or newer) into the velexample/WEB-INF/lib
directory
- put the SampleServlet.class into the velexample/WEB-INF/classes
directory
- put the sample.vm template into the velexample directory.
- at this point, you should be able to restart tomcat and access the
servlet.
- so bounce tomcat, go into your web brower and go to :
http://<your computer's ip
address>:8080/velexample/servlet/SampleServlet
- you should see the sample output. At the least, a file
'velocity.log' should be created in the velexample directory
At this point, you are using Velocity!
So - make sure you update the SampleServlet.java code before doing this.

Yes - the servlet example was changed about 2 weeks ago to automatically
configure the FileResourceLoader to use the webapp root as the path for
finding templates. This is confirmed to work in Tomcat. Please update
your servlet example
examples/servlet_example/SampleServlet.java
and then rebuild the examples, move the .class file to the
WEB-INF/classes directory of your webapp, and try again.

Yes, but you don't want to modify that. Those are defaults for Velocity
to use.

I find very interesting this line:

It's seems that the current directory for velocity is tomcat/bin ...wright?
More corect to say : is the directory from where tomcat is started.
It is possible to specify a path to FileResourceLoader?...
I found that Velocity parameter file in wright in the jar file. Corect ?

Re: Integration with Tomcat
Posted by Alin Simionoiu <as...@musicnet.com>.
Thank a lot for you're help.
Now it's starting to make sense to me how Velocity can be integrated with
Tomcat.
But, I think your REAMDE.txt file is not very correct.
You say that it's necessary to create a new webapp directory under existent
webapps directory.
An create that structure under this new webapp directory.
If I do this, Tomcat will reply with 404 Not Found, which I think is
correct.
On the other hand, I create that directory structure ( velexample...)
directly under tomcat webapps it's seems that's working.
But, It doesn't find the template file.
The error is :
VelocityServlet : Error processing the template
java.lang.Exception: Cannot find the template!
java.lang.Exception: Cannot find the template! at

P.S
I bounce Tomcat after I create the directory structure.

I just updated the examples/servlet_example1 code and README.txt, which
should be a nice simple sketch on doing the very basics. You will have
to get this out of CVS, on the main branch. It's simple to do - you can
use your web browser and download the parts.
Just go to
http://jakarta.apache.org/cvsweb/index.cgi/jakarta-velocity/
Tell us what happens...

I read in the Readme file that Velocity can be integrated with Tomcat.
But I cannot find any documentation how actually you can do that.
Can somebody please help me ?

We already answered this question for you last week.
You need to use a servlet engine.

Look at the Servlet examples.
