Can we downlod jar from WEB-INF/lib using webstart?

Hi,
Can we down jars which are in WEB-INF/lib directory
using jnlp (webstart)?

I got the basic concept of webstart.
I can download jar only if publicly accessible (It
should form a valid URL).Note an important distincion here..
1) It is possible to form valid URL's that
point to WEB-INF/lib.
2) The server should not allow access, to
that URL (any URL pointing inside WEB-INF/lib)
and should return instead the HTTP code that says
'not allowed/barred/forbidden'
There is a big difference between a[b] valid URL,
and a valid URL pointing to a forbidden resource.
But yes, you seem to understand correctly,
that the jar's for web-start cannot be loaded
back to the client, from this directory.
Thanks for your help.You're welcome.

  • Tomcat6 does not load class files from WEB-INF/lib/myjarfile.jar  WHY???

    I have placed my jar file in c:\tomcat6\webapps\my-application\WEB-INF\lib\myjarfile.jar
    But, after restarting tomcat6, when i try to import the class file contained in the myjarfile.jar in a servlet, it says
    ProcessFileUpload.java:4: package test.test1 does not exist
    import test.test1.*;
    ^It clearly tomcat's class loading problem.
    As i unzipped my jar and placed the packagefolder structure to
    c:\tomcat6\webapps\my-application\WEB-INF\classes\testand it works perfectly.
    Anyone knows its workaround? please suggest if any configuration changes is required in tomcat or so.
    Thanks.

    Thank you gimbal2 . There was error in creating the jar file myjarfile.jar.
    But, now I have created it again and placed it in place
    c:\tomcat6\webapps\my-application\WEB-INF\lib\myjarfile.jarand tried to use one on the Class file included within the jar to compile my servlet. But, still I am getting error at servlet compilation time. I want to place executable jar files in
    c:\tomcat6\webapps\my-application\WEB-INF\lib\myjarfile.jar and compile my servlet and execute the servlet.
    I DO NOT WANT TO unzip the jar, placing all unzipped files to
    c:\tomcat6\webapps\my-application\WEB-INF\classes\ folder and comiple my servlet and execute the servlet. But, I am failing to user WEB-INF\lib\ folder facility....please help me why i am not getting class files from WEB-INF\lib\ folder.
    If you please see the small code bit and tell me any possible error that would be very helpful.

  • Jars extracted from WEB-INF/lib in JDev 9.0.3

    I have a project for a Web application with Struts and I've built a deployment profile for it. When I deploy to WAR or EAR the generated WAR contains the jars from <HTML Source>/WEB-INF/lib folder as extracted classes in the WEB-INF/classes folder and jars in WEB-INF/lib as well. I want to do something so that the jars will be included just as jars and not extracted.
    Thanks for help.

    I put the jars in the deployment profile in the "WAR File" option from deployment profile descriptor.
    When the jars were defined in a separate library entry for my project I put them through "WEB-INF/lib" link under "WAR File" option. Both ways it did the same.
    I gave up this and I am using ant but I would like to know if it is possible to do it with deployment descriptor.

              I use struts in my application.so I put struts.jar in web-inf/lib.
              In the .war file, the struts.jar can be found under web-inf/lib.
              my servlet configuration in web.xml is:

  • WebLogic 8.1 SP6 NoClassDefFoundError for jar in WEB-INF/lib dir (Solaris)

    Hi,
    I am getting a NoClassDefFoundError for a class that is contained in the WEB-INF/lib folder of my ear/war file.
    The strange thing is that this only fails when i try to deploy to production. In UAT (also on Solaris) and in Windows (test) the exact same versions of the deployment / ear file everything seems fine and the class is accessed.
    When i added the jar file to the classpath i experienced a "Unsupported major.minor version...." of this class error so i am reluctant to go down that route and anyway would rather consistent deployment between the systems.
    I would REALLY appreciate any suggestions as to what might be the cause or what i could try.
    Thanks,
    David

    Thanks for your replies. Sorry if i didn't post enough information for you...
    I appear to have found the problem (i managed to recreate in Windows) but have no idea why this is occuring.
    In the startManagedWebLogic.cmd file, if i specify "set JAVA_OPTIONS= xxxxxx" then the system will not pick up this one jar file. This appears to be the case even with "set JAVA_OPTIONS=-Dweblogic.attribute=value -Djava.attribute=value" which i assume is a default value as i can't remember having set it... The moment i comment out this set JAVA_OPTIONS line then the system is able to find the jar file.
    (Answering your questions:
    - The class in question is being referenced from another class also contained in a jar file in the WEB-INF/lib directory
    - the WEB-INF is part of the WAR which is contained in the EAR which is deployed on my server)
    For now i am ok but know that in a future build i am going to have to use the JAVA_OPTIONS parameter so would really appreciate any suggestions as to why this might be happening.
    Thanks,
    David

  • Is there a restriction on loading "javax" classes from WEB-INF/lib?

    I'm having trouble with a webapp in WL 10MP1 that is having trouble loading classes from the "jsr311-api-1.0.jar" in my WEB-INF/lib. Even though I have no trouble with it in Eclipse (no compile errors), classes from that jar fail with "NoClassDefFound" exceptions. I have a feeling it might be the fact that the packages in that jar start with "javax". Assuming that's the case, is there anything I can do to fix this?
    What's even stranger is that the errors I get are when I try to load them directly from the Spring context. However, if I remove the test references to those classes, there's other code that loads those classes later in the application startup (after the Spring context finishes loading), and they load perfectly fine (I turned on verbose class loading to verify this).

    Note that I've tried two other strategies that both result in the same failed state.
    I tried putting the "jsr311-api-1.0.jar" in $JDK_HOME/jre/lib/ext, but that causes a failure to find Spring classes. I then copied the "spring.jar" into $DOMAIN_HOME/lib, and then it fails to find CXF classes. After doing the same with "cxf-2.2.3.jar", it then fails to find "javax.servlet.ServletContextListener", which clearly tells me there's no benefit to this approach.
    Similarly, I tried copying the jars into $DOMAIN_HOME/lib, and that fails to find "org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory". I could continue down this path, but it doesn't seem likely to succeed. Eventually, I'll get to a point where it just can't find the classes specific to my application, which I certainly can't copy into $DOMAIN_HOME/lib.
    The first basic problem is that I can't put anything into a higher-level classloader that will eventually reference classes in a lower-level classloader, because references can only go up the chain, and the second problem is that WebLogic appears to ignore classes in WEB-INF/lib in the "javax.*" packages. I think there might be an exception for "javax.xml.*", but not for other subpackages. I tried adding a "prefer-application-packages" clause to my weblogic-application.xml file, but that had no effect.

  • NoClassDefFoundError with jar in WEB-INF/lib

    Hi,
    I have an enterprise application running on Websphere 6. I have one external jar file in WEB-INF\lib (it's commons-lang). I am getting NoClassDefFoundError when trying to use classes in this jar file from the web app -- I thought that it was sufficient to drop the jar in \lib and then it would be picked up but obviously that is not the case.
    As a workaround, I've created a shared lib on the app server for this jar, and added it to the application. This works fine, but I can't understand why is should be required.
    Shouldn't it be sufficient just to put the jar file in WEB-INF\lib under the webapp?

    I think Websphere 6 already includes commons-logging. So the error you are getting may be classloader confusion, which is easy to do with Websphere and hard to understand (so I may be confused here). Try not including it anywhere, not in your web app and not whatever it was you did to make it work. Restart Websphere and your web app and see what happens.

  • Jars in web-inf/lib not in classpath

              Hello,
              I am building a web application where I wish to use third party jars.
              (specifically cos.jar and log4j.jar)
              AFAIK when you place these jars in the web-inf/lib directory of your application
              they should then be included in the application classpath.
              However this does not seem to always work. I am using Weblogic 6.1, no service
              pack.
              Eventually I got it to work by adding a manifest to my EJB jar file with the classpath
              pointing to the jars and including the jars in the ear file.
              Has anyone else had any issues with this?
              Thanks,
              James
              

    James,
              Yes, I've had troubles with WLS 6.1.2 finding the classes in my jar files
              that are stored in WEB-INF/lib when deploying as a .war file. The funny
              thing is that when I deploy to a WLS 6.1.0 running on two other machines
              (one solaris, one linux), I don't see this problem.
              My servlets all extend the webmacro WMServlet class, which is found in
              WEB-INF/lib/webmacro.jar. When deploying my web app, grems, I see the
              following behavior.
              On WLS 6.1.0 (running on solaris), the server unjars the WEB-INF/lib files into
              ".wlnotdelete/WEB-INF/_tmp_war_myserver_myserver_grems". That directory
              contains a jar file for each one in my .war files WEB-INF/lib directory.
              On WLS 6.1.2 (running on Solaris), however, the server just doesn't seem to do that.
              Instead, it creates
              ".wlnotdelete/WEB-INF/_tmp_war_myserver_myserver_grems/WEB-INF/lib". Not
              only that, but it doesn't put any of my jar files into that directory.
              Notice that it create the WEB-INF directory twice for some reason.
              Needless to say, any class which uses a class from one of those jar files
              bombs spectacularly with a ClassNotFound exception. This is extremely
              frustrating and any help would be greatly appreciated.
              Thanks,
              Bobby

  • Please help.! Problem with locating classes within Jars under WEB-INF/lib.

    Hi All,
    I have a problem which you guys would have faced already...Here it goes..
    I'm using OC4J 10.1.3.0 and use ADF for my web page. I have a controller class which refers to JSF/ADF APIs and this class is archived as a jar file and put under WEB-INF/lib, Also, all the classes related to JSF/ADF are available under the same WEB-INF/lib folder.
    When I invoke my page, the controller class is getting called but it throws NoClassDefFound Error for the ADF based class. i mean, these ADF/JSF classes are not getting found when my jar class is placed within WEB-INF/lib. However, when i extract my jar into WEB-INF/classes, it works.
    I'm sure, i miss some entry for classpath somewhere. Can any one please point me to right direction...?
    Thanks
    Rajasekaran

    Hello,
    I do not have a direct answer to your question, but could you try the ClassLoader query tools to see if your classes/jar are loaded by the applications:

  • Deploy problem with ejb jar in WEB-INF/lib

    Please help with : StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
    On WL 6.1 sp2, I have one EJB jar that deploys fine in an expanded EAR structure,
    this has EJB jars and the web apps together running under a single JVM.
    But when I need to deploy the Web App to a separate server & JVM, still using
    WL 6.1, and leave the EJBs in another WL server I get java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException.
    I have about 8 ejb jars. When I put one of them in the Web-App's WEB-INF/lib directory.
    I get java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when it starts up, just after/during
    the extracting of classes for the standalone Web App. The exception stack trace
    mentions manifest, but the manifest for the ejb jar is just standard. It doesn't
    even have a Class-Path: entry, which all the others happen to have. an needs
    to contain the server EJB jars.

    Please help with : StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
    On WL 6.1 sp2, I have one EJB jar that deploys fine in an expanded EARstructure,
    this has EJB jars and the web apps together running under a single JVM.
    But when I need to deploy the Web App to a separate server & JVM, stillusing
    WL 6.1, and leave the EJBs in another WL server I getjava.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException.
    >
    I have about 8 ejb jars. When I put one of them in the Web-App'sWEB-INF/lib directory.
    I get java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when it starts up, justafter/during
    the extracting of classes for the standalone Web App. The exception stacktrace
    mentions manifest, but the manifest for the ejb jar is just standard. Itdoesn't
    even have a Class-Path: entry, which all the others happen to have. anneeds
    to contain the server EJB jars.

  • EAR has WAR has JAR in WEB-INF\lib NoClassDefFoundError

    What a nightmare.
    I found approximately 40 forums on this topic (and there are probably more), but noone has the definitive answer!
    Here's the problem....
    My servlet uses a utility class that resides in some other jar. That jar is then placed into the WEB-INF\lib directory of the WAR which in turn goes into the EAR. This is supposed to be all that is needed in order for the utility class to be found on the classpath.
    In fact, if you run the war in Tomcat as a standalone WAR it does in fact find it.... its when in an EAR deloployed to app server that the problem arises.
    I have had no luck with using any combination of putting the jar ANYWHERE in the EAR or WAR no matter if I specify the Class-Path: in the manifest(s) or not.
    I thought maybe that I was missing some config in the application.xml or web.xml but I couldn't find anything to support that.
    Maybe its dependent on the app server? I am using Orion, but the same problem can be found on J2EE RI release 1.3
    Work arounds:
    1. Simply put the utility jar in the lib directory of the server you're using
    2. Add an ejb module to the application.xml naming the utility jar as the ejb jar. Of course this is NOT an EJB jar and error messages/warnings will appear accordingly, but on Orion at least, it will load the classes needed... hooray!!
    Anyone got a definitive answer?

    What did you do to resolve this issue .. I'm having the exact same problem.

    Anyone got a definitive answer?

  • Images not loaded from WEB-INF/lib/images.jar

    The images are found in root/images/*.gif, but not
    when jarred up and placed in the lib folder. I've looked everywhere
    for a solution but all I've seen is suggestions of other places to put
    the folder, or to add it to the classpath.
    The jar is being loaded but the images are not found. Or at least the images are not showing up - the table where the main image is linked expands to the size of the image when the path is correct.
    Does anyone know the solution to this problem? I don't want to just leave them in the folder at root level, because this does not work if I set a default url pattern for the control servlet.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    GregIf your planning to make the images accessible by normal html tags - img etc, then they cant be in a jar, and they must be in a location from which the container serves content - i.e not under WEB-INF. Unless you want to write a special servlet which does nothing but read the images and feed them to the client - but I wouldnt recommend that.
    Sounds like your using Struts, and sounds like youre not using weblogic since you wouldnt be able to serve even jsp�s (using forward) from under WEB-INF if you were. Putting jsp�s under WEB-INF sounds like such a good idea when using Struts, but in practice...

  • MySql driver not found in WEB-INF/lib

    Hello
    This topic is very often met on this forum but there are no
    suitable answers for the problem I have. I am creating

    This is what I achived using the <metainf> tags from
    war task in build.xml. Look at the first code
    listing. The
    magic code is:
    <metainf dir="${meta.dir}">
    <include name="context.xml"/>
    </metainf>where ${meta.dir} is defined as ./meta and there
    resides
    the context.xml file (look at the project layout).Very good, thanks.
    Any guesses why Tomcat is not loading mysql jar from
    WEB-INF/lib directory?No. 8(
    My understanding is that JARs in the WEB-INF/lib are visible only to your web app. Those in /common/lib are visible to all apps and the container. Those in /server/lib are visible only to the container and no apps. It SHOULD work from WEB-INF/lib. I've done it that way, but it was an older version of Tomcat.
    Checked the Tomcat docs. They say to put it in /common/lib, but they don't explicitly forbid it in WEB-INF/lib.
    I'll try a simpler example.

  • How can I access WEB-INF/lib

    Hello all,
    I deployed JClient application using Java Web Start.
    I have the following lines in jnlp file
    <resource>
    <jar href="WEB-INF/lib/share.jar" />
    </resource>
    There's actually share.jar under WEB-INF/lib directory,
    but I got error message when execute the application.
    It seems that I can't access files under WEB-INF via http.
    Does anybody know why?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry for being picky on this. Oracle is not doing it, it is the software you're using, ie JDeveloper in your case.
    AFAIK, the Servlet spec states that every library that is needed by the Servlet application should be put under WEB-INF/lib. These libraries are not accessible for any other usage.
    JDev is doing this because your web application needs it.
    If your JNLP application needs it too, JDev should be smart enough to include it twice in your WAR file, once for your web application and once for your JNLP application.
    On the other hand I really hate software that is too smart and causes more problem by being smart than everything else.
    Having said that, please file an enhancement request on Metalink for JDev for better library management for JNLP applications.
