Init-params and jsp

I'm using Tomcat. Is there a way to specify an init-param for a) a JSP program, and/or b) any servlet in the context?
As far as I can figure out, the only way to set init-params in Tomcat is to put them inside a <servlet> tag. But then they are only accessible by that one servlet. What if I want the same init-param to be used by many servlets? Similarly, there is no <servlet> tag for a JSP, so is there some place to put init-param's for JSP's?

you can define application level init params
<web-app>
<context-param>
<param-name>...</param-name>
<param-value>...</param-value>
</context-param>
</web-app>
And you use ServletContext.getInitParameter() to get the values (aka application.getInitParameter())

Problem with accessing init parameters from JSP file

Hi,
I have my init parameters and Jsp configured in web.xml
<servlet>
          <servlet-name>TestJsp</servlet-name>
          <jsp-file>/Test.jsp</jsp-file>
          <init-param>
               <param-name>username</param-name>
               <param-value>Balboa</param-value>
          </init-param>
</servlet> How do I access 'username' field from JSP file.
Kindly help.
Thanks.

you can do this in the jsp
<%=config.getInitParameter("username")%>or do it in the jspInit method in the jsp:
<%! String userName = null;
public void jspInit() {
    ServletConfig config = getServletConfig();
    userName   = config.getInitParameter("userName ");
%>
Hello <%=userName%>

Jsp include and jsp param

Hi All,
I have the following:
<jsp:include page="anotherPage.jsp">
<jsp:param name="testing" value="sdfasdfsd"/>
</jsp:include> And in anotherPage.jsp I have:
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tld/commons-log.tld" prefix="log" %>
<log:dump scope="request"/>
<log:dump scope="session"/>
<log:dump scope="page"/>
<log:dump scope="application"/>
<h3>
Test: <%= request.getParameter("testing") %>
</h3>Not only does this output:
Test: null
but I don't see 'testing' anywhere in the dumps! What is going wrong?
Have I badly misunderstood parameter sending? :-/
Actually, my assumption was that the include code puts the "testing" variable
into the request.. 1) where does jsp:param put the data items it
passes through and 2) if the data item didn't previously exist as a
request parameter, does it ignore it?
Any assistance would be most appreciated!

Depends on the server version you are using. If you are using a JSP 2.0 server like Tomcat 5, then you should be able to do that, as long as you set up the container correctly (to use servlet 2.4 and JSP 2.0 specs rather than 2.3 and 1.2...)
Is you are using a JSP 1.2 container (less then TC5) then you will not be able to use EL anyware except in JSTL tags. The fix is to use the JSTL tags to do the include:
<c:import url="thepage.jsp">
<c:param name="param1" value="${attr}"/>
</c:import>

Init-param tags and related settings?

Hello all,
I am completely new to all this and just recently started training for a product called ServiceCenter and was wondering how the servlet technology works in conjunction with the product.
There are servlet tags available in the web.xml for servlet names AttachmentDownload, FileDownload, FileUpload, ImageUpload, AttachmentUpload, UniqueUpload, Attachment, Image, Messages, HtmlViewer, SCLink, NavMenu, and ThemeServlet.
At this time I can find no documentation available for all the init-param tags and related settings along with explanations. If I can understand how this works, I'm sure I can get the appropriate info from the SC engineers.
And when I say I'm new to this, even that is an understatement but I look forward to a looong career and learning every bit of information passed my way.
Thanks,
Andrew

Sounds like 3rd party API.
First find out the package names for all of that stuff and then google on that to find the manfacturer's website.

Get init parameter from JSP

Hello folks
First of all, I want to say sorry for my English.
Well, I have one jsp file and I want to pass one value from web.xml file to it but I don't know how
I also did the same thing with servlet and it's OK, I used function getInitParameter in ServletConfig and modified file web.xml in Tomcat 3.2.
Please help me
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
For example, if your web.xml has something like:
<context-param>
<param-name>testParam</param-name>
<param-value>[email protected]</param-value>
</context-param>
You can access the "testParam" init param from within your JSP scriptlet as:
String value = getServletContext().getInitParameter("testParam");
where "testParam" matches the <param-name> element of one of these initialization parameters.
Hope that helps.

Weblogic webservices and JSP

Hi Folks,
I have been stuck with this issue for quite sometime now. I have developed a simple webservice using a java class. It looks something like this..
public class ReceiveMessageClass{
   public void receiveMessage(String msg){
      logIt(msg);
      //Store 'msg' in a memory variable so that the JSP can ping it every 10 sec and read it..
}Now, I need a webpage to look at all the messages I recieve at this webservice. Sounds pretty easy? I have done this with Axis. I can create a WAR and my webservice and my JSP can co-exist and share a variable in memory. But with weblogic, a EAR is created and I am not sure how to get my JSP into the EAR. I am not sure how I can store this 'msg' into memory(some static vbl) and then have my JSP read it and display it.
Any suggestions?

I do not see any weblogic classes in the stack trace. So could this
be something to do with tomcat?
If you are just using the client side of the web services stack, you
only need the Client.jar and webserviceclient.jar file in your war.

     System.out.println(ContactNo); //Output is null
%>Thanks for your help.

Haii
The initParam that u have given has the scope inside the servlet ConfigDemoServlet. So u cant get the initparameter value for the jsp
if u rite config.getInitParameter("") inside ConfigDemoServlet u willl get teh value..

Taglib and JSP problem

Hi!
I cannot determine why I'm getting the following error:
I've installed Apache Tomcat/4.0.6
"PARSE error at line 6 column 19

Can you tell why the parser does not recognize it?

this is a wild guess, but make sure the taglib text you added to your web.xml doens't contain funky characters you may have copied from some web page. i.e. retype it by hand if you copied it.
If that isn't it.. sorry i don't see a problem.

Ejb3 app functions only when both .jsf and .jsp is present

Hi All,
I have the following problem: when I try to remove either of booking.jsp and booking.jsf (having same contents) from the directory tree of app.war (following), I get the message HTTP status 404 The requested resource (/s_ejb3_jb421_tobbfele/pages/booking.jsp) is not available.
Thank you in advance: Balazs Bamer

e.g. index.jsf

     <param-value>.jsp</param-value>
</context-param>Tells JSF that the content filename will end in .jsp
Default is jsp anyway, so this param is optional.

Init-params in web.xml are not loaded (Tomcat 4)

Hello all...
I register a servlet in webapps/<my-servlet>/WEB-INF/web.xml file, and pass 1 <init-param> tag. The file gets parsed (I know because when I made errors tomcat complained during initialization). However, when in the init method of the servlet I try to access this parameter, its not there. In fact, the servlet has NO init params at all.
=================================================
I have the following web.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

          for (Enumeration e = config.getInitParameterNames(); e.hasMoreElements();){
//This statement never gets printed because the loop never enters here since there are no init parameters
               System.out.println(e.nextElement());
super.init(config);
String str = config.getInitParameter("xengine.configFile");
System.out.println(str);
XEngine.init(str.trim()); //This line throws NullPointer, because str is null since there are no initParameters.
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException{

          System.out.println("Got post request in XServlet");
PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
out.println(XEngine.process(req.getInputStream()));

I know what the problem is. If you call servlet with the default URL (http://host/app/servlet/package.Servlet) than Servlet DOES NOT read init parameters. I don't know why it was designed this way.
To make servlet read init parameters, you have to assign it a name and then call it with that name, like this:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>ServletName</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>package.ServletClass</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ServletName</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/app/path/ServletName</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
You can then call servlet using path specified in url-pattern and read init parameters in the normal way.

Modifying the init-params for third-party handler without redployment?

Hello,
I have a custom handler used for authentication as a third-party jar file. This handler has some of the init-params which are configured in web-services.xml deployment descriptor. Typically these init-params change from one test environment to another. So user can change these parameters, but for every change I would need to redploy the application in each environement.
Is it possible to change these init-params dynamically once application is deployed? I would like to change it after my EAR file containing webservice is deployed and before a webservice invocation is made by the client.
Any help/guidance will be much appriciated...
Thanks.

Duplicate post please do not respond to it. thanks.

Actually, tools services are not getting started even after running the command for toold services.
Below are i the commanf i have ran..
$ENDECA_ROOT/tools/server/bin/shutdown.sh
$ENDECA_ROOT/tools/server/bin/startup.sh
[endeca@server bin]$ ps -ef | grep Endeca
endeca 16776 21961 0 11:54 pts/2 00:00:00 grep Endeca
Please advise, there are no process for the endeca ending with bootstarp start.

How to set the init-param debug_mode to "true"

Hi All,
I wrote a custome application that will get invoked when I click the link in the SES search result page.
I could invoke the application. However, getting the following exception when I click one button in my application:
500 Internal Server Error
OracleJSP: An error occurred. Consult your application/system administrator for support. Programmers should consider setting the init-param debug_mode to "true" to see the complete exception message.
How can see the exceptions I am getting. I mean how can I set the init-param debug_mode to "true".
Thanks
Krrish

Normally application.log is where I look for problems. However this time there's nothing in the application.log file.
I 'm trying a little experiment with how I build my .ear file. Usually I keep all the dependent jars of my webapp under WEB-INF/lib and then include the .war inside a .ear for command line deployment to Oracle application server (not OC4J standalone). Now I 'm trying place all my dependent library .jar files in the top directory of the .ear and then have a CLASSPATH entry in the .war's META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file to reference those jar files. This way multiple .war files inside my .ear then can reference a common set of jars without having to duplicate then under WEB-INF/lib of each war. Maven2 supports this type of packaging. In some forums this is called "skinny war" packaging.
With this "skinny war" packaging, my .ear file deploys without errors using admin_client.jar (command line deployment) to the Oracle app server. However when I access the JSF page in one of my apps from the browser, I see this OracleJSP error asking me to set the debug parameter. NOTHING in the application.log file.
On the application server host I don't have write permissions to all the application server directories (so I can set this debug param in soe global file) . I prefer being able to set this debug flag via my application's deployment plan file or web.xml.
I have a workaround by making all the .wars inside my .ear "fat" i.e. they will have their own copies of the jars instead of sharing. I guess I can try to setup a OAS shared library and accomplish this too but with the "skinny" war approach the .ear is self contained.

init-param with &

          hy,
          can anybody help me with a problem?
          Got following init-param in web.xml with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
          set at the beginning.
          <init-param>
          <param-name>removeTemplateCache</param-name>
          <param-value>/content/admin/remove?cache=templates&id=</param-value>
          </init-param>
          Deploying fails with SAXException saying:
          Deployment descriptor "web.xml" is malformed, check against the DTD: The reference
          to entity "id" must end with the ';' delimiter. (line 218, column 56)
          What do I need to do to handle "special characters" in the Deployment Descriptors
          ?? Only Escaping doesn´t really work ..
          Thanks for input.
          Greetings


          Seems to be a problem nobody want to answer to ..
          Tried a little and found something that worked:
          <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
          <init-param>
          <param-name>removePageCache</param-name>
          <param-value>/content/admin/remove?cache=pages&id=</param-value>
          </init-param>
          The wonder ist called unicode and can be found in more details at: www.unicode.org
