Invalid web.xml

I am having a problem within Tomcat (v. 3.3 or 4.0) where the
web.xml for the webapps.war file give an error.
The error is:
At Invalid element 'servlet' in content of 'web-app', expected
elements '[error-page, taglib, resource-ref, security-onstraint,
login-config, security-role, env-entry, ejb-ref]'.
I have also had problems within the web.xml file with regards to
tag-lib
Anyone expiriencing similar problems.

i hope , you problem is already solved by now.
you should be using the url pattern as
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
remove the leading "/" character

Javac: invalid flag: C:\XML\web.xml

Hi,
I created a file web.xml in JCreator. When I tried to compile the file, it showed:
javac: invalid flag: C:\XML\web.xml.
Does any know how to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance.

10.1.3 - OEM Deployment generating invalid orion-web.xml

Hi,
I've playing around with OracleASjms resource adapters, JMS Connector, etc - with some good results. I noticed that one of my test applications, when deployed (via OEM) gets an orion-web.xml which is not according to the XML schema and am wondering whether this is designed behavior.
In my servlet I'm using some logical names for javax.jms.ConnectionFactory and javax.jms.Destination, which I specify in the web.xml. Deploying the ear file I get the change to resolve environment references to 'physical' JNDI locations. I map the logical javax.jms.ConnectionFactory to an OracleASjms resource adapter connection factory (which in turn is pointing to an JMS ConnectionFactory) and the javax.jms.Destination I map to an OracleASjms Administered resource.
The applications deploys and works fine, however I have a question with respect to the orion-web.xml that Oracle is generating based. More specifically I see (<....> are replaced with actual values):
   <message-destination-ref-mapping
         name="<logical name>"
         location="<OracleAsjms/Administerered Object>"/>The element message-destination-ref-mapping isn't declared in the XML schema for orion-web.xml, but still it works, how come?

http://www.oracle.com/technology/oracleas/schema/orion-web-10_0.xsd
Thanks, jvissers. It seems that orion-web-10_0.xsd is outdated. It is probably that it was posted for the 10.1.3 preview. When the 10.1.3 production release is available, at least that schema is not updated. Hmm, all things that are changing but kept at different places are just very susceptible to inconsistency. Hmm, OracleAs team should probably make automated tests to make sure that they are in sync. (I am just thinking loudly). Let me try to communicate to someone who can further take care of this matter of outdated schemas. Thanks again, jvissers.
Where did you look?Inside my oc4j installation! oc4j will not go to the web to download the oc4j-specific schemas in case of need. The orion-web-10_0.xsd is at OC4J_HOME/j2ee/home/lib/schemas.jar!META-INF/orion-web-10_0.xsd. That is where I looked. So the orion-web.xml generated by OEM is indeed valid.

Taglib element not allowed in web.xml conforming to web-app_2_4.xsd ?

Hello,
I want to configure taglibs in my web.xml file.
The beginning of the file looks like this:
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

      version="2.4">I placed the following:
<taglib>
    <taglib-uri>/tags/struts-bean</taglib-uri>
    <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>element just after the welcome-file-list element. When I "validate XML" in Netbeans I get :
cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'taglib'. One of '{"http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":description, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":display-name, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":icon, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":distributable, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":context-param, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":filter, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":filter-mapping, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":listener, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":servlet, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":servlet-mapping, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":session-config, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":mime-mapping, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":welcome-file-list, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":error-page, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":jsp-config, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":security-constraint, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":login-config, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":security-role, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":env-entry, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":ejb-ref, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":ejb-local-ref, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":service-ref, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":resource-ref, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":resource-env-ref, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":message-destination-ref, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":message-destination, "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":locale-encoding-mapping-list}' is expected. [53]
cvc-complex-type.2.3: Element 'web-app' cannot have character [children], because the type's content type is element-only. [71]
XML validation finished.Indeed, looking at the web-app_2_4.xsd I cannot find a description for the taglib element.
Where should a put taglibs ? Is it enough to include them in every JSP so I don't need to place them in web.xml ?
Thank you.
Vlad.

web.xml 2.4 uses a <jsp-config> to enclose the
<tag-lib>
<jsp-config>
<tag-lib>
</tag-lib>
</jsp-config>I believe that is the syntax. I will check when I get
to my server comp.You are right. That's how it's done. Thanks a lot for the reply.
I hope there were good reasons to break compatibility with the old format. There are a lot of examples out there that use the old one. Without knowing the reason for such a change, I find it very annoying.
Thanks again
Vlad.

Question on defining taglib in web.xml

I am using netbeans to develop a j2ee5 web application.
I created a web application project using the wizard.
When I defined a <taglib> in the web.xml, it detected an error.
cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'taglib'.

As of servlet 2.4 (jsp 2.0), you'll have to move the taglib declarations inside a <jsp_config> element.

Web.xml + taglib

I am getting the following error when I compile my project. The project has both an http session listener and a taglib. This error comes when I have a <%@ taglib....%> directive in a JSP page. Any suggestions?
Error(29,12): Invalid element 'listener' in content of 'web-app', expected elements '[servlet-mapping, session-config, mime-mapping, welcome-file-list, error-page, taglib, resource-env-ref, resource-ref, security-constraint, login-config, security-role, env-entry, ejb-ref, ejb-local-ref]'.

Have you found a solution to your problem.
I've been removing the <listener> tag entries from the web.xml file when I'm compiling the jsp's because I get the same error. I have listeners for the construction of listeners and the application context. I have to re-insert them back into the web.xml file and make the file read only to execute the project. Pain in the you know what :) if not does anyone else have a solution to this. I'm using JDev 9.0.2 and upgrading to 9.0.3 is not a solution...
Thanks
Will

9.0.3, web.xml, context-param

Using documentation found on oracle's website, where I needed to have a specific initialization parameter, I setup a context-param in web.xml. In 9.0.2, I got a warning (and posted here but got no response) but was able to continue. In 9.0.3 I can't run my project when I include this parameter.
Here's what I add to web.xml
<context-param>
<param-name>ReportServerURL</param-name>
<param-value>http://localhost:8888/reports/rwservlet</param-value>
</context-param>
when trying to compile, I get:
Error(76,18): Invalid element 'context-param' in content of 'web-app', expected elements '[taglib, resource-ref, security-constraint, login-config, security-role, env-entry, ejb-ref]'.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jeff

If only you would see web-app.dtd you could know that context-param must be enclosed in web-app and be at certain place. See that (from web-app.dtd):
<!ELEMENT web-app (icon?, display-name?, description?, distributable?,
context-param*, filter*, filter-mapping*, listener*, servlet*,
servlet-mapping*, session-config?, mime-mapping*, welcome-file-list?,
error-page*, taglib*, resource-env-ref*, resource-ref*, security-constraint*,
login-config?, security-role*, env-entry*, ejb-ref*, ejb-local-ref*)>

Invalid Web service URL

Hi All,
While creating a model in VC7.0 based on an external webservice(ex: http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl), I ended-up with Invalid Web service URL error.
Note: When I access the same WSDL URL using browser it didn't ask me for user authentication, the XML file was opened neatly.
Please assist.
FYI- Portal Version is NW2004s SP16.
Kind regards,
Vijay

Hi Fabien,
Thanks for your feedback.
Yes, I had tried with simple and local one, and found success in that as well.
But, this time I would like to create a model based on the some 3rd party webservice available in internet.
If you know few simple 3rd party webservice available in internet as like the one I have mentioned in my initial post, that would be helpful to me.
Many thanks.
Kind regards,
Vijay

Eclipse editor gives error for web.xml for jsp-config

Your web.xml file is out of date.
You have a DTD there for the Servlet 2.2 spec.
The jsp-config tag was introduced to web.xml as of the Servlet 2.4 specification - which is why it is complaining in your editor.
Seeing as you have Tomcat 6, I would recommend you change your web.xml to look like this
- removed the DTD
- change the web-app tag to include schema information

Question on web.xml and login

Hi all
I am doing a web-based project, registered user need to log in before they view the member area pages.
I have created a directory, called "client", in the Tomcat 4.1.24/webapps/ROOT/client I have put a index.html in the client directory. This index.html only can be viewed by the client after log in.
For the best of my knowledge in Tomcat, in order to do this, I have created a web.xml in Tomcat_home/webaggs/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml, in the url-pattern section, I put /client/* to tell the tomcat server that index.html in client directory is the first page after user login.
The problem is, I couldnt see the member welcome page after I login as a member, the browser gave me the error: HTTP status 400 - Invalid direct reference to form login page. However, if I specified the address http://localhost:8080/client/index.html , it show me the login page and after I input the username and password I can see the member welcome page.
I dont know whether is something wrong with the web.xml or I should do other thing to let the server know which is the first page after member login.
Thank you very much
Kelvin

Wow, you really are in the wrong place with this query, its not really even java ;o) This is the new to java forum! Perhaps you would be better off (in fact I know for a FACT that you will be as I have seen answers to identical problems there) in the Tomcat-user list...

Defining error-page in web.xml

Hi,
We are using oracle 9iAS with oc4j container. I have defined error-page for redirecting 404 error-code in web.xml. It works fine with all browsers except internet explorer 5.5 and higher, IE ignores and displays 'page cannot be displayed' page. Can anybody help me on this, but on the otherhand if I send response.sendError(404);, it recognizes and invokes page.
Thanks for the advice

Hi,
Thanks for your reply to me.
I am doing something wrong but I can't find it.
I add the following code to my WEB-INF/web.xml file under the web-app tag, using jdeveloper.
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>notFound.html</location>
</error-page>
then all of my jsp's in my project have this error message when I buit them.
-Error(1): oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParseException: Invalid element 'error-page' in content of 'web-app', expected elements '[taglib, resource-ref, security-constraint, login-config, security-role, env-entry, ejb-ref]'.
Can yo help me???
thanks in advence...

Error deploying when web.xml contains similiar security-constraint elements

I am receiving an error when I include similiar security constraints in my web.xml descriptor. I actually have many security-constraint elements defined but I have narrowed it down to the following two that appear kind of similiar which are causing the problem:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
     <web-resource-name>ProcessesPosts</web-resource-name>
     <url-pattern>/processPost/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
</security-constraint>
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
     <web-resource-name>Processes</web-resource-name>
     <url-pattern>/process/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
</security-constraint>
The error I receive is:

Has anyone seen anything like this? Have I defined something wrong in my web.xml? The exact same web.xml file does work in several other application servers.

Hi Jay,
I am not aware of such document for the preview release.
About the concrete problem your investigation was enough detailed so we managed to reproduce and fix it.
Thanks and regards

Generated JSP reports and context-param in web.xml

I have what I believe to be a problem when using .jsp files generated from reports builder (actually, it looks as if the problem is in the reports tag library. When adding a context-param to web.xml, I get an error when compiling the following line:
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/lib/reports_tld.jar" prefix="rw" %>
Error(1): oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParseException: Invalid element 'context-param' in content of 'web-app', expected elements '[taglib, resource-ref, security-constraint, login-config, security-role, env-entry, ejb-ref]'.
Note that I can read the context param and no other JSP pages seem to care, just those with the Reports Tag library.
Regards,
Jeff

Ben -
There can be init params for the servlet or for the servlet context. For the servlet, this looks like:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>InitServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>package1.InitServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>message</param-name>
<param-value>Hello From Initialization Parameter</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
in the web.xml file, and is accessed using:
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
super.init(config);
message = config.getInitParameter("message");
For a servlet context init param, you define it as you did using the web.xml settings editor:
<context-param>
<param-name>hello</param-name>
<param-value>hi</param-value>
</context-param>
This is accessed using:
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
super.init(config);
message1 = config.getServletContext().getInitParameter("hello");
Hope this helps,
