Maintaining Portal Desk top URL aliases in web.xml file

Hi All,
I am planning to configure portal url alias i.e http://localhost:53000/irj/portal/finance
should take me directly to finance portal desk top.
1) Created a Desktop named finance_desktop
2) Master rule has been set for URL Alias.
3) I need to set URL alias name: finance in web.xml file
4) path for the web.xml file is C:\usr\sap\SID\JCXX\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\web.xml
5) Where exactly i have to change web.xml file
Infact i have seen a pdf "How to configure the J2ee engine deployment descriptor"
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Murali

Hi
indeed one small copy/paste mistake from me ... sorry for that...
After you copyed the large chunk of code (as i discribe in step 1 and 2) you must rename:
<param-name>portal</param-name>
to
<param-name>portal/finance</param-name>
so then that part of the web.xml will look like this:
<init-param>
<param-name>portal</param-name>
<param-value>
anonymous=0,proxy=0,low_bandwidth=0,include_in_url=1,include_application_name_in_url=1
</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>portal/finance</param-name>
<param-value>
anonymous=0,proxy=0,low_bandwidth=0,include_in_url=1,include_application_name_in_url=1
</param-value>
</init-param>
Good luck again...
Cheers,

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.

URL Mapping for packaged JSP's in web.xml file

          Hi,
          I am using weblogic6.0sp2 enterprise edition.I have my JSP's in package structure.
          Suppose my login.jsp is in package com.advice.document. So for URL mapping in
          web.xml what should be given so that by giving that my JSP runs. I have tried
          many options but not got success.
          Here is my web.xml file..
          <web-app>
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name> Login </servlet-name>
          <jsp-file> com\advice\document\login.jsp</jsp-file>
          </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name> Login </servlet-name>
          <url-pattern> /Login</url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>
          </web-app>
          If any body knows or have worked on the same then let me know.
          Thanks in advance.
          --- Vipul


Did you try specifying the jsp-file with forward slashes (e.g.,
          com/advice/document/login.jsp)?

Bug when specifying url-pattern in web.xml

Hi
          I have been using Weblogic 6.0 Beta and managed to specify the following
          security constraint
          <security-constraint>
          <web-resource-collection>
          <web-resource-name>SecurePages</web-resource-name>
          <description>no description</description>
          <url-pattern>/control/signin</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/refreshUser</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/updateUser</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/deleteaddress</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/updateaddress</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/refreshcontacts</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/updatecard</url-pattern>
          <http-method>POST</http-method>
          <http-method>GET</http-method>
          </web-resource-collection>
          </security-constraint>
          This works fine as you would expect. I have upgraded to Weblogic 6.0 Service
          Pack 1 Rolling Patch 1 and the same web.xml file no longer works. When you
          try and start the server Weblogic hangs just after loading the Oracle driver
          that I use.
          The odd behaviour is that if I change the order of the url-pattern elements
          so that the updatecard URL is above the refreshUser URL the server starts!
          (shown below)
          <url-pattern>/control/signin</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/updatecard</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/refreshUser</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/updateUser</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/deleteaddress</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/updateaddress</url-pattern>
          <url-pattern>/control/refreshcontacts</url-pattern>
          A deadlock condition appears to occur, a section of the thread dump looks
          like:
          "Reference Handler" daemon prio=10 tid=0x8990b20 nid=0x7dc waiting on

          at
          weblogic.servlet.security.internal.WebAppSecurity.setConstraints(WebA
          ppSecurity.java:77)
          Looking at the weblogic.jar file the URLMatchMap class is a new addition
          over the original Weblogic 6.0. It seems that the put method of the
          URLMatchMap may be going into an infinite loop, dependant on the URLs that
          are being entered. The fact that changing the order of the URLs overcomes
          the bug seems to suggest there may be some coding error in this new class.
          A fix would be great if anyone has one.
          Chris Mein


          Just wondering if anyone ever came up with the solution to the bug with WL 6.0
          sp1, mentioned by Chris, below. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.

Can i run a servlet without a web.xml file for servlet mapping?

Hello everyone.
The code i want to run compiles and everythink looks ok.
It produces the .class file.
I run Tomcat 4.1 and i build my Web site with Dreamweaver.
I have a form in a page and i want to send the data upon form completion to a database i already have build with MySql.
The database is up and running and the server is set-up ok.
I have changed the port in Tomcat to run on port 80.
The directory i have my site is
Tomcat41\webapps\ROOT\se
and the directory where i keep the servlet class is
Tomcat41\webapps\ROOT\se\WEB-INF\servlet
I have a web.xml file to map the servlet and placed it in
Tomcat41\webapps\ROOT\se\WEB-INF
In the Form action i write action:"/servlets/Classes/GroupRegistration"
and I RECEIVE AN 404 ERROR FROM APACHE.
Somethink is wrong .
The following is the code from the GroupRegistration.java file
and follws the web.xml file.
Please Help.

Thanks for any help.

and the directory where i keep the servlet class is
Tomcat41\webapps\ROOT\se\WEB-INF\servletOthers have pointed out that "servlet" should be "classes", but there is another mistake that hasn't been spotted. If you want your servlet to appear in the root context, you should use:
Tomcat41\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes
If you want your servlet to appear under the /se context, then you should use:
Tomcat41\webapps\se\WEB-INF\classes
and also, in the latter case, your form action should be /se/myGroupRegistration.

Try putting your servlets in the WEB-INF\classes directory.

Your DOCTYPE references 2.4, it should be 2.3. WLS 8.1 supports J2EE 1.3 which was servlet 2.3.
Servlet 2.4 is part of J2EE 1.4 and is supported by WLS 9.0/9.1. Also it uses XML Schema not a DTD.

Help on web.xml file, what if the parameters contains key words ?

Hi:
I am just wondering what should I do if I want to include key words suchs
as <param> in web.xml file for a servlet config.
Example:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>testServlet</servlet-name>
<parameter>
<param-name>some name</param-name>
<param-value>some value</param-value>
</parameter>
</servlet>
What should I do if I want to repleace 'some value' with '</param-value>some
value' and still to prevent the engine to terminate parsing the param-value
at the fake ending? Is there a standard way in XML to distanguish that?
(in URL format it can be replaced %xx for some chars).
ie,
<param-value> </param-value>some value</param-value>
where the second </param-value> is the real ending.
Thank you!
Gang

Hi!
You can use "& lt ;" and "& gt ;" xml entities for that. Or wrap text element in <![CDATA[...]]> section.

(newbie) Question about replacing .class files and web.xml file

I'm new to servlets and I have two quick questions...
Do I absolutely need a web.xml file to define all my servlets, or can I simply place .class files into the WEB-INF directory and expect them to run?
If my application server (for example Tomcat) is running and I replace a servlet .class file, do I need to restart the server for the new .class file to take effect?
...or are both of these questions specific to the application server I'm using?

Hi,
From an article I read:
With Tomcat 3.x, by default servlet container was set up to allow invoking a servet through a common mapping under the /servlet/ directory.
A servlet could be accessed by simply using an url like this one:
http://[domain]:[port]/[context]/servlet/[servlet full qualified name].
The mapping was set inside the web application descriptor (web.xml), located under $TOMCAT_HOME/conf.
With Tomcat 4.x the Jakarta developers have decided to stop allowing this by default. The <servlet-mapping> tag that sets this mapping up, has been commented inside the default web application descriptor (web.xml), located under $CATALINA_HOME/conf:


A developer can simply map all the servlet inside the web application descriptor of its own web application (that is highly suggested), or simply uncomment that mapping (that is highly discouraged).
It is important to notice that the /servlet/ isn't part of Servlet 2.3 specifications so there are no guarantee that the container will support that. So, if the developer decides to uncomment that mapping, the application will loose portabiliy.
And declangallagher, I will use caution in future :-)

Virtual-mapping in jrun-web.xml file for CFIDE is not working

I have put virtual-mapping for my web root into jrun-web.xml
file. It looks like this:
<virtual-mapping>
<resource-path>/*</resource-path>
<system-path>E:/WebSites/mywebroot</system-path>
</virtual-mapping>
So I need give virtual-mapping for my CFIDE too. It looks
like this:
<virtual-mapping>
<resource-path>/CFIDE/*</resource-path>
<system-path>E:/Apps/JRun4/servers/myserver/cfusion-ear/cfusion-war/CFIDE</system-path>
</virtual-mapping>
It is now working for me. When I use following url:
http://localhost:8002/CFIDE/administrator
I am getting "HTTP 404 - File not found". I have set it for
other servers they are working on same server. What I did wrong
this time?
Thanks ahead.
