Location of APR Win32 binaries
Where can I find the binaries download of the Win32 APR? I can find the
source on the APR page of the tomcat site, but not the binaries...

Hm, IIRC it's not contained in the .exe but the installer downloads it during
the install if you tell it to.

That's what I needed; thanks. I'm seeing this line in my logs:
Apr 18, 2007 9:56:30 AM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol start
which from what you said means it's seeing the tcnative.dll.
Thanks for all your help, Markus!

Unless you commented the AprLifecycleListener in server.xml, catalina.out
should contain an INFO message telling you that the native lib wasn't found
(if in fact it wasn't found).
Morover if APR wasn't found you should see something like
... org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol init
in catalina.out and something like
... org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol init
if APR is used (notice the difference in the class names).
At least current versions of Tomcat 6 even log some detailed info if APR is
found and used.
AFAIR on Windows it is enough to drop the tcnative.dll in Tomcat's bin
directory - can't check that atm though. Anyway: putting it in a dir
conrained in java.library.path should work.

That explains why it didn't work after my initial setup: this machine
has no internet connectivity allowed; it's internal LAN only. I would
think it would be appropriate for the installer to give me a notice if
it was unable to download the tcnative.dll. I had to manually copy it
over, and that's why I was asking where to find it and how to verify
that it was working. Having it already in the install.exe would be even
better, IMO.

I saw that on my first startup, which is how I knew I needed to work on it.

That's what I wasn't sure about.
Thanks for the explanation.

Yes: when you run the .exe installer, you'll get a "Choose Components"
screen; the Tomcat box is gray, indicating that some pieces are not
enabled. Open that up, and click the Native check box. As Markus
pointed out, this initiates the download of the .dll, placing it in the
bin directory.
> how can I verify that it is being used?
By default, there's an INFO message displayed if APR can't be found,
since there's a listener configured for it in server.xml. The absence
of the INFO message indicates that APR is in use.

Thanks, Chuck; Do I need to do something to tell it to be used? And if
not, how can I verify that it is being used? I've checked in all my
tomcat logs (catalina, localhost, etc), and nothing mentions it. Or
does it only give a notice when it fails?
Once again, I've checked the web site, and there is nothing that
explains it at this level that I can find.

The .dll for APR is included in the .exe download; no other pieces are
required.

Hehe, make sure your crystal ball meets the Vista requirements for displaying
Aero. It will stay opaque otherwise...

I guess I'm just blind! I read that page at least 3 times, but never
noticed that the "here" was a link. I guess I need to change my browser
settings to make links stand out a bit more.
Tks!

Or you can read the documentation for a change ;)
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/apr.html
<windows>
Windows binaries are provided for tcnative-1,
which is a statically compiled .dll which includes OpenSSL and APR.
It can be downloaded from *here* as 32bit or AMD x86-64 binaries.
</windows>
The *here* is link to: http://tomcat.heanet.ie/native/

Mladen.

Unfortunately, it 's a windows-based crystal ball, and it crashed the

Thanks, though!

By simply using your crystal ball ;-)
To be honest, I don't remember where I got this information from. Maybe
someone mentioned it on the users or the dev list. Or maybe I picked it up
from the installer sources.

Thanks; how could I have found that from the main Tomcat site? I
followed the download links, and it didn't take me to that site...
