Trouble trying to port from JServ
Hi all,
I hope someone can help me with a problem. I'm sorry if this is a stupid
newbie question but I've been working on this for days with no success. I
have been through all the documentation too.
I am trying to port my web application from JServ to Tomcat/mod_jk and am
having trouble configuring Tomcat to use the same URL for servlets that I
used with JServ. Unfortunately changing the URL of my servlets is not an
option because hundreds of external sites already link to these URLs.
The URL I am currently using for all servlets is
http://www.mydomain.com/int/MyServlet. Unfortunately under Tomcat my
servlets only work at the URL http://www.mydomain.com/int/servlet/MyServlet.
I think I've configured it correctly but it still won't work. I just see the
following from stdout:
2001-07-06 01:49:23 - Ctx( /int ): 404 R( /int + /MyServlet + null) null
Below are my conf files. I've tried several variations on them with no
success.
I have the following settings in server.xml:
<Context path="/int"
docBase="/opt/dev/website/int"
crossContext="false"
debug="0"
reloadable="true" >
</Context>
/opt/dev/website/int is the directory that contains all my servlet classes.
It also contains WEB-INF/classes which is actually a symbolic link back to
/opt/dev/website/int. I am not using JSP.
web.xml contains the following:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>
invoker
</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>
/*
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>
invoker
</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>
/servlet/*
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
...
I thought this should cause all files in /int to be handled by the invoker.
Finally mod_jk.conf contains the following:
Alias /int "/opt/dev/website/int"
<Directory "/opt/dev/website/int">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
</Directory>
JkMount /int/* ajp12
<Location "/int/WEB-INF/">
AllowOverride None
deny from all
</Location>
<Location "/int/META-INF/">
AllowOverride None
deny from all
</Location>
Under this configuration the URL http://www.mydomain.com/int/MyServlet
always returns 404 - Page not found. But
http://www.mydomain.com/int/servlet/MyServlet returns the correct servlet
response.
Sorry dump all these configuration files on you but I wanted to provide as
much info as possible. Can someone kindly explain how I can continue to use
the same url (http://www.mydomain.com/int/MyServlet) with Tomcat? What am I
doing wrong?
I am using Tomcat 3.2.2 and Apache 1.3.20.
Any and all replies are much appreciated.
Thank you,
Barry

Hi Barry,
If you want all your servlets served through the my.domain.com/int, On the
server.xml change
<RequestInterceptor
className="org.apache.tomcat.request.InvokerInterceptor"
debug="0" prefix="/servlet/" />
<RequestInterceptor
className="org.apache.tomcat.request.InvokerInterceptor"
debug="0" prefix="/int/" />
then I guess on your web.xml has to have
<servlet>
<servlet-name>
LogIn
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
ca.on.cad.utilities.MyServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>
that should do the trick. downside of this is all your contex are prefix with
/int/. I guess this way
http://your.domain./int/MyServlet should work.
