Adding resource-ref in web.xml

dos it make any difference adding
     <resource-ref>
           <description>Application Datasource </description>
           <res-ref-name>jdbc/myDataSource</res-ref-name>
           <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
           <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
     </resource-ref>inside web.xml , it works with or without , please tell me the importance of this

The optional resource-ref element defines a reference lookup name to an external resource. This allows the servlet code to look up a resource by a "virtual" name that is mapped to the actual location at deployment time.

What's the actual function of resource-ref in web.xml

I was configuring JNDI datasource in tomcat and found an confusing fact.
If I have the JNDI resource configuration in the context configuration of the project, I could get access to the JNDI element with or without the resource-ref configuration in my web.xml.
Can someone tell me what exactly resource-ref does in the web application?
Thank you.

Thank you, Sunny.
But I still don't quite understand.
In Tomcat, this <resource-ref> seems to be optional, right?
Plus, there should be a virtual name and actual location in the configuration.
<resource-ref>
<description>Resource reference to a factory for java.sql.Connection.</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/mydb</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
So, is "jdbc/mydb" the virtual name or the actual location of the resource?

Is there any alternative for adding servlet name in Web.xml?

Hi,
I am new to Weblogic and I have an application(Ear file) which was developed
in Websphere and I am trying to install in weblogic 8.1. I have installed my application
in Websphere without adding servlet entries in Web.xml and it was working fine.
I have installed the same Ear file in Tomcat and added the
following to make all my all servlets work.
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Is there any alternative of doing like that in WebLogic instead of adding each
and every servlet entry in web.xml because my application has around 200 servlets
Thanks&Regards,
Gopi.

Is Servlet servlet same as weblogic.servlet.ServletServlet?

Trouble adding alias to the web.xml file (External Facing Portal)

I'm trying to implement the external facing portal. I don't really have any real custom content to add to it but have just created an iView that contains a webpage that's contained within a copy of the light framework.
I'm having trouble adding or accessing the alias that I've created to go to this iView.
I can test my iView by adding it to the master rule collection under one of the predefined aliases in the web.xml (e.g. portal/anonymous etc) but when i define my own (e.g. "ext" etc) and then go to http://portal:<port>/irj/ext I'm just getting an error:
The requested resource does not exist.
Details:   Go to main page of this application!
This is what my entry in the web.xml file looks like:
<web-app>
<display-name>The Java iView Runtime</display-name>
<listener>
<listener-class>
com.sapportals.portal.prt.session.HttpSessionHandler
</listener-class>
</listener>
<servlet>
<servlet>
<init-param>
   <param-name>
      portal/anonymous
   </param-name>
   <param-value>
anonymous=1,proxy=0,low_bandwidth=0,include_in_url=1,include_application_name_in_url=1
   </param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>
   ext
</param-name>
<param-value>
anonymous=1,proxy=0,low_bandwidth=1,include_in_url=1,include_application_name_in_url=1
</param-value>
<init-param>
</servlet>
My master rule collection seems to be correct, since I can test the iView etc by adding it to a predefined alias. I've tried closing all browsers etc. Nothing seems to work.
Any ideas what this could be?
Thanks!
I'll award points for any help.

Hi Beau
Just Have a try.
In the servlet mapping add the following entry.
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name> gateway </servlet-name>
<url-pattern> /portal/* </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<b><servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name> gateway </servlet-name>
<url-pattern> /ext/* </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping></b>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name> prt </servlet-name>
<url-pattern> /irj/* </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Restart after making the changes.

Critical: Adding session-config to web.xml cause application NOT to start

I added the <session-config> element under <web-app> in web.xml:
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>
Now the app won't start!
The reason: the built-in sun app server removes context-root attribute from <web-module> element in domain.xml when the app tries to start!
Please fix this ASAP, guys!

I placed it in the wrong place. After following the instructions contained in the Technical FAQ (below), it worked.
Add the following element in your web.xml file, placing it after the mapping for the error servlet and before the welcome file list:
<session-config>

<session-timeout> 60 </session-timeout>
</session-config>

Adding servlet entry in web.xml of j2ee engine

Hi ,
I want a servlet to be loaded on startup of the j2ee engine SAP WAS which is basically flex based (MessageBrokerServlet).
The init param for the servlet is not accessible or cannot be initialized in init method of the servlet using the servletconfig object.
This is when the servlet is used as a portal component of type servlet.
So as to load the servlet and the servlet being able to access the init param i would be changing the web.xml of the sap j2ee engine (NW CE 7.1). are there any other effects of the same or is it fine if i just add this param in the web.xml
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>MessageBrokerServlet</servlet-name>
        <display-name>MessageBrokerServlet</display-name>
        <servlet-class>flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet</servlet-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>services.configuration.file</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/flex/services-config.xml</param-value>
       </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

Hi ,
Vivek in case my servlet is part of the Portal Application as PortalComponent how do i define init parameters that can be accessed in the servlet.
The config file would be accessed in the init method of the servlet how do i do that when the servlet is added as PortalComponent in PortalApplication. The servlet config file needs to accessed in t he init method.
The load on startup thing would be taken care of by setting parameter startup = true of application properties.

Implication of not adding amagent filter to web.xml of protected applicatio

Hi, i have installed an J2EE agent to protect my application. The filtering mode is J2EE_ONLY and web tier declarative security is used. The agent is protecting my application without the am agent filter added to the web.xml of the application. Is adding of the filter required? What feature will be missing if the filter is not added?
Thanks,

Hi,
Yes, you need to add the filter element to reference the opensso/am agent. This is the mechanism that is used so that the agent can intercept all the we requests and let the agent check do security checks etc.

What's resource-ref for?

I'm a JNDI newbie, so I hope this isn't too dumb. :-)
I have a web app that I'm running in Tomcat 4.1.10 against a MySQL database. The app gets the DB using JNDI as described in the JNDI howto that comes with Tomcat. Everything works fine. Question is this: when I remove the <resource-ref> element from web.xml and restart the server, it still runs fine--yet every set of instructions I've seen on using JNDI from Tomcat says that I need to have <resource-ref> in web.xml. What's it for?
Thanks,
Willie

Here's my take:
The JNDI binding are done when the Tomcat parses server.xml.
The resource-ref is used to declare to the container how the application is going to use the named resource. The container will 'default' to a standard use; say 'Container' authentication and 'Shareable' which it will use if there are no overides provided in web.xml.
Each application can overide this 'default' behavior by specifying the appropriate settings for <res-auth> and <res-sharing-scope>.
Just an educated guess.
Dave

Error creating acl for (resource). I get this error when entering security info in web.xml.

We're using iWS 6.0. Is there some security configuration that needs to be done in order to use standard security directives in our web application's web.xml?
Thanks!

Hi ,
I have tried adding the following into web.xml but the security feature just doesnt work and the user can go to any page without any restriction.

Processing web.xml -Adding servlet

Can you please give me an out line how to add servlets/filters/session-configs to web.xml programatically.
I have writen a program for adding these but In web.xml the order in which elements are placed matters. So right now in the program I specify that I should add this element before another specified element like that .
How can we make this generic ? I mean how I can maintain the same order as of DTD ?
please help me.

Answering your original question. Yes it is possible to have a web.xml without servlet classes, if you are not using servlet classes.

MalaiIt looks like there may be BOM characters (invisible in regular editors), before the opening angle bracket of the XML prolog: <?xml version="1.0"
The special characters usually are inserted by some editors such as Notepad.
You can download a free Hex editor, like Cygnus hex editor and see if you have the 3 special characters (in Hex) appearing before the XML prolog.
If you see anything before the prolog delete them, save the web.xml file and re-test it.

How to map a resource-ref in Jdev11 deployment plan editor

Hi all,
I have a ADF/BC web application where the BC4J application module does connect to a JNDI data source.
The ViewController project does declare the Datasource as needed resource in its web.xml:
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/wlogDS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
Now i need to map that resouurce-ref to an actual data source that exist in the application container at deploy time.
As already in JDev 10.1.3 the deployment-plan editor provided during deployment from JDeveloper does not provide any means to enter the deployment mapping for that resourc-ref (When clicking on the node (which is named resouce-ref - that becomes very confusing in case you have defined three resource-refs in your web.xml) the right pane shows a gray pane without any edit controls) So I cannot enter the resource-ref-mapping unsing the Jdev UI.
My workaround in 10.1.3 was to save the deployment plan to disk and manually edit it, adding
<resource-ref-mapping name="jdbc/wlogDS" location="jdbc/wlogTestEnvDS">
</resource-ref-mapping>
to the orion-web-app document for that webapp
But in Jdev 11 the deployment plan file format changed (including some binary inline checksums???)and when doing exactly the same thing, the loading of the manually edited file into Jdev Deployment plan editor fails with

So no chance here to add a resource-ref-mapping. The alternative way of specifying a resource-ref-mapping using the web-based deployment proces of the Enterprise manager is impossible because the 11g preview OC4j does not include an enterprise manger web-application.
So how do I deploy the application correctly other that manually modifying the deployed orion-web-app.xml file in j2ee/home/application-deployments/earName/warName/orion-web-app.xml after deploying the app without a resource-ref-mapping? Because doing that step manually each time is quite annoying.
Greetings,
Thomas

Seems i'm slowly answering my own questions :-) I finally got my RMI service, even using several methods. But ...
It doesnt help me as the lookups are not done on the context classloader it seems. That means i need to add all my service jars to the global class path causing massive sealing issues with the war contained jars. Pretty useless. All the needed stubs etc are in the war.
But as it seems that the web app needs to contain deployment site info (sun-web.xml) anyway, i could just as easy read my own web xml from the context and resolve the services myself. But i do wonder how this is supposed to work with EJB and CORBA stuff. The samples actually also needed to add stuff to the global class path.
I'm probably not the easiest customer as i write this kind of middle ware for a living but i really like sjsws. It makes my own one partly obsolete as it is almost as fast and has all the fancy deployment stuff (in my case i use an in-house mobile agent frame work and agents that travel the various networks ) and infinitely easier to learn to work with and understand In case anyone is wondering i wrote Uhura because 1. i needed speed so it is a servlet based webserver and not a web server with a servlet module. 2. could not wait on ibm to fix bugs in webspere and we only used the servlet bit. 2. i needed full J2EE security and 3. i needed it to run on many OS'es
That is why i still need the same war files to be able to be deployed in both systems as i still need my systems going on IBM iservers etc.
Again i would welcome some feed back on such and related issues
Cheers,
Peter

Problem with the data source and web.xml

I have an issue where JSC is removing my resource reference:
<resource-ref>
<description>Creator generated DataSource Reference</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/localOracleDatabase</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
from the web.xml and sun-web.xml.
The application has been working great in the IDE for months then wham, no more data source definition. I try and add the reference manually and the IDE takes it out. I am "NOT" adding it to the .xml's in the build area. Why is JSC removing the data source entry?

This continues to be a problem. The only way that I can get around the problem is to drag a table from the data source onto the design pallete and then the datasource is added back to the web.xml. I can run fine for 10 or 15 runs then the entry is once again removed from the web.xml.
Help please!

Web.xml entries

hi
i have made a entry of the following code in web.xml in my personal folder
<welcome-file-list>

You might be better off asking on a Tomcat mailing list, or somewhere in the Enterprisy bit.

Using taglib in web.xml in WLS 9.2

I am trying to build a web application in which the JSPs refer to a JSF taglib at the following URI(http://java.sun.com/jsf/core). When i deploy the application in WLS 9.2 and attempt to load this JSP, WLS says that it is unable to resolve this taglib. I added the following to web.xml to help the application find the taglibs.
          <taglib>
          <taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jsf/core</taglib-uri>
          <taglib-location>
          /WEB-INF/jsf_core.tld
          </taglib-location>
          </taglib>
          But now when i attempt to startup WLS, it looks like the appserver does not recognize the <taglib> as a valid element. It gives the following exception:
          Expected elements 'description@http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee display-name@http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
          instead of 'taglib@http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee' here in element web-app@http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
          ..." VALIDATION PROBLEMS WERE FOUND"
          Any clues as to what i am doing wrong here since I have seen documentation which shows using taglib elements in web.xml.
          Thanks
          Ramdas

I figured out looking at one of the webapp samples that is packaged as part of WLS9.2 that the taglib element needs to be part of the jsp-config element.

I am modifying the correct httpd.conf file on the server, it just doesn't seem to work. - If I put the rewrite rules in the <Directory /> the rewrite works but it adds /Library/WebServer/Documents to the URL.
I also tried putting the rewrite rules in <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> but that did not work either.
mod_rewrite is enabled and running on the server.
I will post the rewrite rules again in the code brackets. Sorry for the long post. - If some one can try them out on their Leopard Server to see if they can get them to work, it would be much appreciated. Again, these work on my Leopard Client but I can't get them to work on Server.
-- The httpd.conf file posted above is just the default conf file found in /private/etc/apache2/
