Must servlets be inside WEB-INF/classes pr /lib?
Hi,
I'm using TC 4.0, and my servlets (due to some
constraints) must be placed in a separate folder, e.g.
E:\myclasses\servlets instead of the recommended
Servlet Deployment structure, i.e. WEB-INF/classes or
WEB-INF/lib.
Is this possible in TC? I know in JRun it is possible
to do so by specifying the classpath to my servlets in
the configuration file.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Firestar

Most reliable way of determining when tomcat has finished starting up
Posted by Janek Bogucki <ja...@yahoo.co.uk>.
Does anyone know a good way of checking for when
tomcat has finished starting up?
I'd like to have a script like this
$ $CATALAINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
$ ..wait for TC to finish starting up ...
# $APACHE/sbin/apachectl graceful
I'm using Tomcat 4.0 w/ mod_webapp.so.
Any tips welcome,
Janek Bogucki

You need to increase the environment space, command.com has a switch for
this, I don't remember in my head what it is though, type command /? and you
should get info about it. Modify your config.sys so that this option is used
for the default command.com

Re: Must servlets be inside WEB-INF/classes pr /lib?
Posted by Dmitri Colebatch <di...@bigpond.net.au>.
In that case you can use tomcat 3.x, it does allow your servlets to be int
he global classpath, but there are potential hazards involved. For
instance you wont be able to have them reloaded dynamically.

Hi Dmitri, thanks for yr patience.
I guess we have no choice but to stick with JRun for
the moment (until we sort out our own classes
deployment internally), as it allows us the
'flexibility' to break the rule:)

Hi,
yeah, that doesn't surprise me... the reason that tomcat 4 ignores your
classpath is that it causes all sorts of problems. seriously, the spec
outlines how things are suppose to happen, and my best advice would be to
put your servlets in web-inf/classes (or lib).
alternatively, you'd need to have a good explanation from someone who
fully understands the class loading mechanism of catalina... I could take
a few guesses, but wont. I also think that someone who does fully
understand it will simply repeat the above advice....
so, cd /myservletclasses; jar cf myservlets.jar *

Hi Dmitri, thanks for your quick reply.
I have tried adding the classpath to my servlets to
catalina.bat, but it throw a javax.http.servlet class
not found exception. It will works OK if i do not add
in the classpath.

This is not "recommended" it is required. Its laid down by the servlet
specification how a servlet container handles web applications, and what
the structure of a web application should be.

Anything's possible.... the simplest way is to change the catalina.sh to
include your classpath, but this is plain _wrong_, what you would be
better off doing is changing your build/deploy process so that you have a
properly structured webapp.
