About servlet engines

Hi All
I came across 3 new terms the other day, I was just wondering what they actually are.
Standalone servlet engines, add-on servlet engines and embeddable servlet engines. Base on the description that I have, standalone sevrvlet engines seem to be the kind of server that can do it all. Add-on servlet engines are the likes of Apache-Tomcat combination (am I right?) and the embeddable servlet engines are ....... something that I have never heard of, would anyone like to share with their experience???
Thx.

WebLogic Server vs Embedded Servlet Engine

We have licensing for WebLogic Server, and I was wondering if there were any benefits to using it over the embedded servlet engine for hosting Collaboration 4.5 or Publisher 6.4?

hi.
WebLogic Express supports the following:
Servlets, JSP, JDBC, JNDI, JTA, JAAS, JAXP, RMI, and clustering. You
can build a cluster of WLExpress instances.
Hope this helps,

be clustered, I wish to know if I can build a cluster with 2 Weblogic

What is the default root of the servlet engine in IPlanet v6?

I am trying to get java based code to work on IPlanet's webserver/servlet engine version 6. The servlets are being inited, but they can't find their .properties files (xml variable files). I have been able to install this code on many servlet engines including JRun, Tomcat, and Jserv by placing the .property files into the default root of the servlet engine. In JRun, for example, it would be Allaire/Jrun/servers/default. I have tried placing them in several directories and adding them individually to the classpath, but still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please place your claspath in jvm12.conf file.
Which will be under /server-root/https-instance/config/jvm12.conf.
For more info about how to set classpath for running servlet. Please look out the below link.

Problem in servlet engine (WLS 7.0) with the chunked transfer

Hi,
          While using jakarta-slide on weblogic 7.0, I encountered the following
          problem while uploading files using WebDAV servlet deployed on WLS:
          "**** This file has a corrupted %%EOF marker, or garbage after the
          %%EOF."
          Is this is a problem with the way that WLS servlet engine is handling
          chunked transfers ?
          According to the change request 084847, "For chunked
          transfer, WebLogic Server was including a hexadecimal number which
          other
          servlet engines used to ignore. This has been fixed WLS 6.1 sp 4."
          Is this fixed in WLS 7.0 ? I could not find this in the resolved bugs
          list for WLS 7 SP1. If this has not been fixed in 7.0, any idea when
          this fix would make it to WLS 7.0 ?
          Any pointers would be of great help.
          Thanks,
          Jeeji.

How to restart the Servlet Engine?

Hi
I am configurating a WebDAV repository in KM
I am required to restart the Servlet Engine.
Can anyone please explain me how to restart the servlet engine.
Thanks in advance
-madhu

Basically it means to restart the Java engine!
On way to do this is to use the NetWeaver Administrator tool (http://portal:port/nwa) and navigate to Administration -> Systems -> <Your SID> and then you will see your dispatcher and server nodes. Just restart the server0..n nodes.
Cheers

Security & Servlet engine and ejb container on different servers

          When you have the servlet container and the ejb container on different physical servers,
          how is the rmi connection meant to to be done while still maintaining the seucrity
          propagation from servlet to ejb tier?
          Assume that my user is already authenticated (forms) on the servlet tier. Do we then
          create a dedicated connection (InitialContext + url/username/password properties)
          to the ejb tier and store this connection in the HttpSession? (basically authenticating
          a 2nd time)
          OR,
          can the servlet container make a generic connection to the ejb container, and pass
          the users security context to the ejb tier transparantly?

          It doesn't create a 'connection' per user - when you use JNDI authentication (specifying
          principal and credentials when constructing InitialContext) it associates security info
          with the current thread for the duration of the request. If you cache InitialContext and
          use it later on some other thread it will not do anything.

Servlet Engine for IIS

Hi!
I wanna ask if somebody knows a servlet engine for the IIS, which is free for commercial use & which is certificated by Microsoft.
Hope somebody can help me!
Thanks

thanks for your advice.
i m currently trying to set up the ISAP redirector for tomcat.
one more question: IMHO there are 2 posibilities
1) to install tomcat as standalone server and a different port the IIS
2) to install IIS with the ISAPI redirector to tomcat
please correct me if that's wrong. what's the difference?
And what`s the better solution??

How can the servlet engine create objects of interfaces?help

hello,
I have this basic fundamental query...when using servlets i noticed that so many methods in the HttpServlet class take as arguments objects of the type "Interface"..where as basic principle in java is u cant instantiate interfaces...interfaces r mere templates which u implement by ur own custom classes.
For example the doGet method recieves from the servlet engine(servlet container) two arguments which r HttpServletResponse object and HttpServletRequest object..and u use these further to make use of the methods of the inmterfaces..which again is a mystery to me...why?
here is why:-
since HttpServletResponse and HttpServletRequest r interfaces..they cant be instantiated...and now that the sevlet engine provides objects of these interfaces...how come u r able to to use the methods of these interfaces...for r they not empty methods?..
example how r u able to make the sendRedirect() method of HttpServletResponse interface work...is this method not an empty method?
there r several interfaces...whose objects r being used and passed in this similar fashion....(for example there r many methods that return an enumeration...which is used as if it were an ordinary class that can be instantiated..and whose methods r non empty emthods)
please help me resolve this mystery
sheeba

Don't call me "u". The word is "you". Likewise "are" and not "r".
The servlet engine creates objects of concrete classes that implement those interfaces. If you want to find the names of those classes in your particular server, you could use for examplereq.getClass().getName()

CiscoWorks Tomcat Servlet Engine service does not start

Hello!
CiscoWorks Tomcat Servlet Engine service does not start.
Events in the Windows Event Viewer:
The CiscoWorks Tomcat Servlet Engine service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s).
output pdshow and file stderr.log, hs_err_pid2128.log attached.
Do you have an idea how to resolve this?
Thanks!

The only things which I see are wrong are the start types for the IPM NG database engine and HUM database engine services. They must be set to Manual, not Automatic. However, that would not account for the Tomcat crash. The crash points to an error in the code which processes regdaemon.xml, but I see no reason why that should be failing. As I said before, I think it would be best to open a Service Request. Remote access would be helpful to dig into this problem in more detail.

Quiestion about servlet class

hi,
Is any know what happen broswer run a servlet class? it keep in cache some where?
I run tomcat-4.1.27 on Linux box, I just find out. After I modified the java code and recomplier (no error), re-run on broswer. It still show my old java class result.
Did I miss something?
Thanks

the browser itself has absolutely nothing to do with the html generation inside a servlet. servlets are serverside-only "applications".
after changing your servlet code make sure todo the following:
- compile the source file(s)
- make sure the servlet engine (in your case tomcat) is reloading your webapp
(if the webapp admin is available you might restart your webapp by using this admin tool)
if after all the browser is still showing the old servlet result code you should also check the browser caching settings and maybe clear the cache.

Should Servlet Engine do it or DatabaseEngine?

Hi,
First I was doing the job in this way
1)select a,b,c from table where x=somevalue;
2)Then I was reading the value of a,b,c from the result set and storing them in variables(java variables),String s1,String s2,String s3.
3)Then I was feeding the data in javafunction to get the efficiency from method getEfficiency(s1,s2,s3)
4)So this sequence was going through out the result set.Now I am making oracle to give me the efficiency as I wrote the getEfficiency(a,b,c) in the oracle
Which of the cases will you recommend and why?Should the job be handled by servlet engine or by PL/sql engine,which one will give the results faster?If any one amoung you had found the difference in efficiencies please specify it,that will make the
understanding better.
thanks a lot
vicky

Hi,
I think that it should depends on several things.
1. the data amount in the result set.
if the data amount in the resut set is large, perhaps
you calculate the efficiency in the store procedure
and get the result would be faster. Basically,
the size of data of transimittion on the network
determine the performance.
2. algorithm
if the algorithm may be changed frequently or not,
if you are sure that it would not be changed, you
could put it in the store procedure; if not, I think
that put it in the application would be better. it
could be maintained easier.
3. database loading.
if the database loading is heavy, I think that you may
consider put method in the application. if it may
degrade the performance of database server. After
all , database server is not dedicate to that store
procedure.
But above points are interleaving in your case. you
may need to get the balance by different weight
for your need. I think that you need to do the tuning
task if it is worth doing so.
good luck,

New Servlet Engine with iAS

Is it true that in the next version of iAS, a new servlet engine (TOMCAT perhaps) will be proposed to replace JSERV ?

WebLogic's Servlet engine is less than $1K / CPU I believe.

Does anyone have experience using iPlanet 6.0 Servlet engine with
WebLogic 6.1 EJB engine? The two engines will be located on separate
physical servers. If so, any information on the implementation would
be greatly appreciated (lessons learned especially). Would the cost
difference between using WebLogic's Servlet engine vs. iPlanet's
Servlet Engine be worth the attempt? I saw in some previous posts
that there were issues with how older versions of Weblogic RMI (T3)
Protocol worked and that Weblogic would only have one socket
connection for the iPlanet Servlet Engine through which all requests
will be multiplexed. This would be a bottleneck for any application.
Is this still true with the latest versions of these products?
Thanks,

How do I change the default port - 8080 for the Oracle Servlet Engine that seems to have been installed with Oracle 9i. Also, how do I disable it from starting at all or is that something that's necessary in order for 9i to run.
