Hello Tomcatters, I am at loggerheads with a webapp that I was only provided as a closed source WAR file. I should mention that I am not a Java Servlet/JSP or Tomcat hacker. When I start Tomcat it throws an exception with regard to that webapp's listener class. As far as I understand the term "li

Hi Tomcatters, we run two Tomcats on two separate hosts which are assumed to be configured exactly the same (at least as far as Tomcat, Java env, and this webapp are concerned). I have no knwoledge of Tomcat webapps like JSPs and Jasper whatsoever (only administrating the server). While when the

Hello Warren, actually I don't do more than invoking the tarball provided catalina.sh script where to my knowledge classpaths and similar env stuff is set mainly in accordance to a set JAVA_HOME. I didn't touch catalina.sh, nor startup.sh. I merely wrapped my own wee scriplet around that so that h

Yes Chuck, but not carefully read it yet. This is as I said all related to log4j. Not that I mind that the Java folks advocate their libs for doing common tasks like log rotation their way. It would only be quicker for me to set up logrotation using logrotate. But never mind, I guess I will soon re

Tomcat logrotation

2006-02-06 Thread Ralph.Grothe
Hello, I haven't yet installed the lib4j and defind an appender. Since I'm more used to the old fashioned Unix way to rotate logs (and have it working this way for the Apache httpd logs) I would like to employ logrotate. However, in the logrotate.conf for any server's logfiles you usually have t

Hello, although I didn't find an answer whether to have catalina run as root proc or under unprivileged uid (Charles Cladarale mentioned it was required for binding to low ports, for which there's no need in my setup since I so far used standard ports which are all well beyond 1023) I decided for

Hi, I want to secure a tomcat I have been setting up as a heartbeat resource. Because I lack any tomcat knowledge (only have the docs at my sight) first I was simply comparing how other tomcats of around were set up. But that only left me shudder as I seemed to glimpse into a gaping security aby

Hi Patrick, although I lack any Tomcat knowledge as well as MAC OS experience I think that is a mere scripting issue. The syntax errors you produced after your commenting out of the OS check must be a follow on. I think you only missed to comment every line from the case block, so the "case" line
