Context.xml questin

Hello!
Where the context.xml (tomcat) file should be, in catalina_home or in catalina_base?
Thanks.

Both, but wrong forum and off topic for the site. Try the Tomcat documentation.

In ColdFusion 10 Java integration, app-context.xml cannot be found in the classpath

I have jars and dependencies from a vendor Java library that I wanted to use in my new CF10 environment, however the Hibernate/Spring dependencies of the library conflict with those within CF10 itself. To work around that, I had hoped to use javasettings in an Application.cfc to prioritize the library with the classloader, but the Spring classpath resolver seems to be unable to find a META-INF/spring/app-context.xml in the classpath even though it is within the jar.

Problem in loading Context.xml file

Hi,
I just tried to create datasource from context.xml. i did the following steps
1. i added context.xml file in webapps/META-INF/
2. I added the below values to that xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context antiJARLocking="true" path="/myApp" >
 <Resource name="jdbc/dbtest" type="javax.sql.DataSource" driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" password="test_dev" minIdle="1" maxIdle="1" maxActive="10" maxWait="5000" username="test_dev" url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@22.4.55.6:1521:TEST"/>
</Context>3.

 private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(TestDB.class.getName());
 private final static String JNDI_PATH_DB = "java:comp/env/jdbc/dbtest";
 public javax.sql.DataSource getCatalogDS() throws NamingException
 try
 InitialContext initCtx = new InitialContext();
 return (DataSource)initCtx.lookup(JNDI_PATH_DB);
 catch (NamingException ex)
 log.info("NamingException: " + ex.getMessage());
 throw ex;
 public Connection getConnection() throws Exception
 try
 DataSource catalogDS = getCatalogDS();
 return catalogDS.getConnection();
 catch(Exception ex)
 log.info(ex.getMessage());
 throw ex;

 System.out.println("before lookup");
 System.out.println("Datasource is "+obj.getConnection());
 } catch( NamingException ne ) {
 throw new RuntimeException( "Unable to aquire data source", ne );
 catch (Exception e)
 String st = StringUtils.StackTraceToString( e );
}4. i run this class to get connection.
i am getting an error

Kindly help to resolve this issue.

You need to give the InitialContext some properties, there's no magical way it'll configure itself (outside of a Java EE container).If you lookup a URL with a known protocol, e.g. ldap: or in this case java:, it will configure itself in any environment that has a factory for the protocol.Is this a recent change? Last time I was accessing Ldap, it did require me to specify the com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory separately.

META-INF/context.xml, Tomcat, META-INF/services

I presently have a Netbeans project laid out like this:
src
src\java
web
web\META-INF
web\META-INF\context.xml
etc. Tomcat finds that META-INF/context.xml OK and does what I expect with it.
I have recently added something that is loaded by java.util.ServiceLoader, which requires a META-INF/services/x.y.z file containing the name(s) of the classes that implement x.y.z. After deployment, my webapp's ServiceLoader doesn't find it, because in the target it isn't in WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/services/x.y.z. If I put it into src/java/META-INF/services/x.y.z it works correctly, as it then ends up in the right place. However I'm now concerned that either Tomcat won't find the context.xml if I put it in the same place under src, because it would then not be in /META-INF/context.xml but rather /WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/context.xml, which in turn would mean that I would then need two META-INF directories. I'm about to test that conjecture about Tomcat finding it under WEB-INF/classes/META-INF, but I'm wondering whether I'm doing something basically wrong in the first place here.

You seem to think that you can have only one META-INF directory; this is simply not true. Keep both your META-INF directories and put the files where they are expected. Yay for using overlapping names :/

Data source needs to be specified in context.xml instead of web.xml - why?

Hi,
I'm using a Spring JndiObjectFactoryBean to create my JNDI data source in my code:
<bean id="jndiDataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean" lazy-init="true">
 <property name="jndiName" value="java:comp/env/jdbc/DS_OURDB_DB2" />
 <property name="lookupOnStartup" value="false"/>
 <property name="proxyInterface" value="javax.sql.DataSource"/>
 </bean>I have the necessary Resource added to my Tomcat's server.xml:
<Resource accessToUnderlyingConnectionAllowed="false"
 defaultAutoCommit="true" defaultReadOnly="false"
 driverClassName="com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver"
 factory="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory"
 initialSize="0" logAbandoned="false" maxActive="8"
 maxIdle="8" maxOpenPreparedStatements="0" maxWait="-1"
 minEvictableIdleTimeMillis="1800000" minIdle="0"
 name="jdbc/DS_OURDB_DB2" numTestsPerEvictionRun="3"
 password="ourpass" poolPreparedStatements="false"
 removeAbandoned="false" removeAbandonedTimeout="300"
 testOnBorrow="true" testOnReturn="false"
 testWhileIdle="false" timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis="-1"
 type="javax.sql.DataSource"
 url="jdbc:db2://machine1:60056/DBD1" username="ouruser"
 validationQuery="SELECT current date FROM sysibm.sysdummy1"/>I then have the resource referenced in my web.xml:
<resource-ref>
 <res-ref-name>jdbc/DS_OURDB_DB2</res-ref-name>
 <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
 <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
 <res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
 </resource-ref>However, I'm getting JndiLookupFailureExceptions when I attempt to use this JNDI resource.
I can resolve it by specifying the following in my META-INF/context.xml:
<Context>
 <ResourceLink global="jdbc/DS_OURDB_DB2" name="jdbc/DS_OURDB_DB2" type="javax.sql.Datasource"/>
</Context>I've read some of the JNDI/Tomcat documentation. However, I still do not understand why it doesn't work with the web.xml. Can anyone explain please? Thanks

Can answer this myself after some more investigation. The reason I required the entry in the META-INF/context.xml was because I had specified the Resource as a Global Reference in the server.xml. By adding this Resource to my application's Context in the server.xml the configuration in the web.xml worked as expected.

Tomcat application context.xml

This is my problem:
I've been programming my own implementation of a Realm.
within I want to access a <Environment>-Entry situated in
a customized Context.xml :
<Context docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/slide"

Where to place /META-INF/context.xml ?

Hi,
Apologies, but this is a newbie question. In the tomcat docs, it states that
"A /META-INF/context.xml file can be used to define Tomcat specific configuration..."
Could you please tell me where /META-INF/context.xml is placed relative to web application root? In other words, if I have a web application in a directory /MyWebApp, should the /META-INF dir be in /MyWebApp/META-INF or should it be under /WEB-INF?
Thanks.
Ben

You seem to think that you can have only one META-INF directory; this is simply not true. Keep both your META-INF directories and put the files where they are expected. Yay for using overlapping names :/

Context.xml for Tomcat using Weblogic JMS

Hello,
 has anyone succeeded in getting Tomcat to use a queue hosted by Weblogic? If so, could you please post a snippet of your context.xml with the <Resource>... sections appropriate? My last attempt drowned in a sea of bizarre security exceptions and hasn't been seen since.
 Thanks,
 Richard

Tom,
 I'll see what happens when I move things about, but really, there's a difference here. One of the issues here is that Tomcat needs a class that implements the ReferenceFactory interface for its configuration. I can't find such a class in the Weblogic docs, but I might have it all wrong or be looking in the wrong place. Hence, my question.
 The weblogic jar is not in the Tomcat classpath, it's in the WEB-INF/lib directory of the war file I'm working with.

Referencing Database from Context.xml

In the Context.xml file, I have reference to the database I am using for the application. Here is the Context.xml code.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="ABATE" reloadable="true" docBase="C:\Documents and Settings\koconnor\EclipseWorkspace\ABATE" workDir="C:\Documents and Settings\koconnor\EclipseWorkspace\ABATE\work" >
 <Resource name="jdbc/ABATE" auth="Container" scope="Shareable" type="javax.sql.DataSource" maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000"
 username="ccn" password="ccn" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
 url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/abate?autoReconnect=true"/>
</Context>Basically; what I need to know is how I can reference the value stored in "url" within a java class.

The point is that you DON'T access the URL directly. You just look up the datasource by name: jdbc/ABATE, and ask it for a connection. It will use the url to give you a database connection.
It abstracts the connection details from your code.

Workshop 10.1 not deploying custom context.xml

I have a web project that was converted from Workshop 3.3. The project has a context.xml file in WebContent/META-INF that contains a datasource.
This setup was working fine with Workshop 3.3, however for some reason Workshop 10.1 is not merging the file into server.xml (Looked at $WORKSPACE\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\conf\server.xml)
The old workspace from 3.3 shows the information merged into the file.
No modifications to the project other than converting to 10.1 have been made. I've tried marking the context.xml as read-only as well and that did not help.
Any ideas or suggestions?

I just tried the following steps and it is working for me.
- Create a new struts project
- create a new devloader_context.xml under WebContent/META-INF/
contents:
<Context docBase="test" path="/test" reloadable="true" source="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:test">
<Resource name="jdbc/TestDB" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000"
username="javauser" password="javadude" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/javatest?autoReconnect=true"/>
</Context>
- Save & mark the file readonly
- create a new Tomcat 5.5.x (5.5.23) configuration
- add the project to tomcat and start the server
- The contents of devloader_context.xml were merged into server.xml file
verified @ workspaces\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\conf

I think i need to change the TNS_ADMIN value so the database will start using the 11g listener right.
Can I manually update the context.xml to correct values ? How should I proceed in this situation?

I think i need to change the TNS_ADMIN value so the database will start using the 11g listener right.
Can I manually update the context.xml to correct values ? How should I proceed in this situation?- Make sure the database is up
- Update the 11g listener.ora file manually and start the listener (using lsnrctl)
- Edit the Context File and make the necessary changes
- Run AutoConfig
- As oracle user, open a new session and source the database env file again
- Issue the command “env | grep 9.2.0” again to verify that all references to 9.2.0 ORACLE_HOME are no longer exist
- Shutdown/Startup the listener/database

Context.xml question , Thanks

Hi, developers:
I would like to connect to another server using context.xml. I did like the following link: < a href="http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html"> link to instruction</a>
In the "JDBC Data Source" :4 Configure Tomcat's Resource Factory part said a Context.xml tshould be stored in the META-INF directory .
My problem is:
1) where is /META-INF so I can find the contect.xml. I using tomcat5.5 and find only at Tomcat5.5\conf\context.xml?
2) When I restart with my context.xml below, the tomcat can start but application can NOT.
Error msd: Http status 404 : The requested resource (/account App) is not available.
code of context.xml is:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context displayName="account" path="/accountApp" debug="0" reloadable="true" docBase="serverdb">
<Resource name="jdbc/dbinstance" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
factory="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@//dburl:1522/"
username="accuser"
password="accpw"
maxActive="20"
maxIdle="10"
maxWait="120000"
removeAbandoned="true"
logAbandoned="true"
removeAbandonedTimeout="300"
testOnBorrow="true"
testOnReturn="true"
validationQuery="select 1 from dual" />
</Context>
is some one can give me a help to solve it. Thanks in advance

The "context" here is an artifact of the way that Tomcat works. It contains deployment information - the path to the application files, the JNDI mappings and various other bits and pieces.
The "context" of a web application is the path to which it is deployed within the application server. An application deployed to a context called "foo" would probably be accessed by the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/foo/And the application files would probably be stored somewhere like this:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\fooTomcat keeps its context information EITHER in a file called server.xml or in a seperate file named after the application's context. So typically it will be in one of these files (for our "foo" application):
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\conf\server.xml
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\conf\Catalina\localhost\foo.xmlYou can create the entry in one of several ways:
1. Edit server.xml manually
2. Edit foo.xml manually
3. Use an application such as the admin webapp to deploy your application
4. Include a Context.xml file in the META-INF directory of the application
The last option allows you to specify the default values that you want the application to take up when you deploy it to Tomcat. This saves time during development, but may cause problems for your clients when they come to deploy the application themselves.
It is this last file that you seem to be talking about. You would normally create it as a directory and file within the source directory for your application, from which you build and deploy a WAR file. For example, you might build the following files and directories into foo.war:
C:\dev\foo\index.jsp
C:\dev\foo\WEB-INF\web.xml
C:\dev\foo\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
C:\dev\foo\META-INF\Context.xml
This would be built to a WAR file called foo.war that represents a Zip of the contents of the C:\dev\foo directory. Deploying this will cause Tomcat to notice Context.xml and extract its contents into the conf/Catalina/localhost directory as foo.xml

Context.xml seems to be not read

Hello guys,
I've a strange issue. My application use a connection pool through JNDI.
Issue is that on production server (linux debian) my application can't connect to db!
In catalina log I see
org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES))the issue is that in context.xml of my application (I use local context) user and password are different (i don't pass root user, but a specific user for db!).
Is it possible tomcat is not able to read context.xml and so try to go with root user?Please help me, my application doesn't see db..
this is my web.xml
<resource-ref>
 <description>DB Connection</description>
 <res-ref-name>jdbc/MysqlJNDI</res-ref-name>
 <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
 <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>and this is my context.xml
<Context antiJARLocking="true" path="/xxx">
 <Resource auth="Container" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" maxActive="-1"
 maxIdle="300" maxWait="1000000" name="jdbc/MysqlJNDI" password="yyy" removeAbandoned="true" removeAbandonedTimeout="30" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
 url="jdbc:mysql://ip/geco" username="zzz"/>
</Context>Is there something I can do? Mysql is listening to this address, I can't access with my user through console...it's my jsf application that can't access and in the log appears root user...
Please help me
