DatabaseServlet

[Philip Eskelin <ph...@eskelin.com>]

Now that I'm up and running with Orion and Struts, I've run into another
issue -- it doesn't seem to be saving new user or subscription information
into database.xml for the struts-example project.  How and where does this
mapping occur?  Without looking at Struts source, I cannot tell.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Philip Eskelin

Did you need to move database.xml out of the WEB-INF directory?  Based on
Kevin Duffey's message Orion doesn't allow access in that directory.

I'll see if I can help you out too -- thanks for the response.

Viel Grusse,
Philip

... because it gets an exception.

i changed "DatabaseServlet.java":
---------------->
    public void init() throws ServletException {

	this.pathname = getServletConfig().getInitParameter("userdb");
            [...]
<---------------

and "web.xml":
---------------->
  <!-- Database Initialization Servlet Configuration --> 
  <servlet> 
        [...]
    <init-param> 
      <param-name>userdb</param-name> 
      <param-value>/opt/orion/config/userdb.xml</param-value> 
    </init-param> 
<---------------

and then it works for me (with tomcat and resin) :(
(please look at my previous posting, perhaps you can help me)

i think, there is a problem in the "unload()"method of the DatabaseServlet.
perhaps the call to "pathname()" fails because the
   "getServletContext().getRealPath("/")" is no more available in the
"destroy()" method!

hope that helps
