[Daemon] File.mkdirs() don't work if started with jsvc

Hi again!

I was trying File.mkdirs() on Tomcat 5.0.25 on Debian Woody, and I can
say File.mkdirs() don't work if Tomcat is started with jsvc.

(I've to say that this happens ONLY on Debian Woody... Debian Sarge and
Debian Sid works ok).

I've made a simple servlet (since Tomcat can't compile JSP):

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
     HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException,
     IOException {

     response.setContentType("text/html");
     PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

     out.println("<html>");
     out.println("<head>");
     out.println("<title>Servlet</title>");
     out.println("</head>");

     try {

         String fileName = "/tmp/test/" +
                     System.currentTimeMillis() +
                     "/test/afile.txt";

         out.println("File name: " + fileName + "<br>");
         File file = new File(fileName);
         boolean ok = file.mkdirs();

         if(ok)
             out.println("OK<br>");
         else
             out.println("FAIL without exception!<br>");

     } catch(Exception e) {
         out.println("FAIL with exception!<br>");
         out.println("<pre>");

         StackTraceElement el[] = e.getStackTrace();
         out.println(e.getMessage());

         for(int i=0; i<el.length; i++) {
             out.print("    ");
             out.println(el[i].toString());
         }
         out.println("</pre>");
     }

     out.println("<body>");
     out.println("</body>");
     out.println("</html>");
     out.close();
}

If I start Tomcat with "startup.sh", I get:

============================================================
File name: /tmp/test/1089999282783/test/afile.txt
OK
============================================================

If I start Tomcat with "jsvc", I get:

============================================================
File name: /tmp/test/1089999639863/test/afile.txt
FAIL without exception!
============================================================

I'll post whis message on tomcat-user and commons-user, because maybe
this could be a jsvc related problem

Thanks in advance!

Hi!
I've installed tomcat from "jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25.tar.gz"...

On "jsvc-src/native/jsvc-unix.c":

/* Set linux capability, user and group */
#ifdef OS_LINUX
/* CAPSALL is to allow to read/write at any location */
#define CAPSALL (1 << CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_SETUID)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_SETGID)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE)
#define CAPSMAX (1 << CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE)
/* That a more reasonable configuration */
#define CAPS    (1 << CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_SETUID)+ \
                 (1 << CAP_SETGID)
/* probably the only one Java could use */
#define CAPSMIN (1 << CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE)


I don't understand how to use "capabilities"... Could be some problem 
related with capabilities??? (since the error apears ONLY if I start 
Tomcat with jsvc)

Hi . if you have installed tomcat using apt-get it might just be the security settings that debian developers
like to add to tomcat. Have you tried to download tomcat and insall by hand?
(editing /etc/tomcatthingy) does not work since they also used to override those files every startup

Hi Michael!

With:

String fileName = File.separator + "tmp" +
             File.separator + "test" +
             File.separator + System.currentTimeMillis() +
             File.separator + "test" +
             File.separator + "lastDir";

I get:

======================================================
File name: /tmp/test/1090002159068/test/lastDir
FAIL without exception!
======================================================

The same problem! File.mkdirs() doesn't work!

Try getting ird of the hard coded separators, i.e. "/", with 
File.separator, e.g. File.separator + "tmp" + File.separtor + "test+ 
File.separator instead of "/tmp/test/".  Don't do this with the content 
types, by the way.  If you want to be OS free, you have to code OS free.
