Mapping JSP files

Hi, I am using Tomcat 4.0.3. I am trying to map my JSP pages by giving the following code in web.xml file.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>AJSP</servlet-name>
<jsp-file>/myjsp.jsp</jsp-file>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>AJSP</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/hello</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
But I am getting the following error when I try to start tomcat. If I remove above lines, then there is no problem.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The content of element type "web-app" must match
"(icon?,display-name?,description?,distributable?,context-param*,filter*,filter-
mapping*,listener*,servlet*,servlet-mapping*,session-config?,mime-mapping*,welco
me-file-list?,error-page*,taglib*,resource-env-ref*,resource-ref*,security-const
raint*,login-config?,security-role*,env-entry*,ejb-ref*,ejb-local-ref*)".
Thank in advance
Ravi

Why would you map a jsp?
you can just add jsp files to your directories and they will be compiled at the first load...
when you update files they will be loaded also...
I can't imagine any advantage on mapping jsp files...

          how to To install a jsp under another Web Application in wls 7.0.1? and i just
          don't want to deploy jar,ear,war... file.
          It seems there are many differences between wls7 and wls7.0.1.

Mapping of a directory containing JSP files

Hi,
          Iam using weblogic 6.1, SP2.
          I have created a web application with the DefaultWebApp directory where
          u can put ur jsp files for them to be available automatically..
          Can someone tell me is there a way to map jsp files to some other directory
          Or can i make some subdirectory under DefaultWebApp like 'presentation' and
          keep my jsp files in that and not be required to write the directory name
          ( presentation) for accessing my files.
          In short is it possible in some way to map some directory where i put my jsp
          files and they are readily accessible, other than the DefaultWebApp
          directory.
          thanks,
          Pankaj


JSPs do not require specific mappings as do HTTP servlets.
          Place your Jsps, for example configureJsp.jsp, in the DefaultWebApp/presentation
          directory.
          In a web browser, request the JSP file using the following URL:
          http://localhost:7001/presentation/configureJsp.jsp

Mapping new file extension as JSP file in 6.1sp1

How can I map .coolJsp as a JSP file in WLS6.1sp1? This seems to work,
          but is really ugly:
          web.xml:
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name>JSPServlet</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>weblogic.servlet.JSPServlet</servlet-class>
          <init-param>
          <param-name>compileCommand</param-name>
          <param-value>/bea/jdk131/bin/javac.exe</param-value>
          </init-param>
          <init-param>
          <param-name>workingDir</param-name>
          <param-value>.foo</param-value>
          </init-param>
          </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>JSPServlet</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>*.coolJsp</url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>


If you think that's ugly, you should see this one app where a guy mapped
          ".coolJsp" extension as if it were a ".jsp" ;-)
          Just kidding, but I am really curious what you are trying to do? Maybe there
          is an easier way? Are you just trying to use a different extension, because
          you could always map coolJsp to a router servlet that fw to the appropriate
          .jsp.

How do I setup in wls 6.1 a jsp file that has a different extension (not *.jsp)

I have a jsp file with extension *.abc. The browser is showing the files as text instead of sending it to be processed as a jsp file.
          I have the following settings in the web.xml but it is not picking it up.
          <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>
          jsp
          </servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>
          *.abc
          </url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>


This is kind of a hack and not officially supported, but you might try...
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name>ABC</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>weblogic.servlet.JSPServlet</servlet-class>
          <init-param>
          <param-name>compileCommand</param-name>
          <param-value>javac</param-value>
          </init-param>
          <init-param>
          <param-name>workingDir</param-name>
          <param-value>WEB-INF/classes</param-value>
          </init-param>
          </servlet>
          Since this isn't the default JSPServlet registration, it doesn't pick up the
          default JSPServlet init arguments, so after some experimentation I figured
          out that you have to at least define these two. Others that you may want to
          configure are...
          defaultFileName
          compileCommand
          compilerClass
          compileFlags
          workingDir
          verbose
          keepgenerated
          precompileContinue
          pageCheckSeconds
          encoding
          packagePrefix
          superclass
          noTryBlocks
          compilerSupportsEncoding
          These are all defined as jsp-descriptor args in the weblogic.xml file, but
          you can equally use them as servlet-args for your custom JSP registration
          Good luck,
          Alex
          P.S.
          Why don't you want to use jsp files anyway?

Use of jsp-file in web.xml

hello
can anybody explain about , when we need <jsp-file> in web.xml
and why we use this tag in place of <url-pattern>?

If you want to declare a JSP in your web.xml file you use the jsp-file tag instead of the servlet-class tag. Normally there is no need to declare a JSP in the web.xml file unless you want to use init-params.
Usually people can access a JSP directly wether it is declared in the web.xml or not. So it is not that the jsp-file tag replaces the url-pattern tag so much as the url-pattern tag is not needed for a JSP. However notthing prevents you from declaring the JSP in the web.xml and then mapping the JSP to a different url that doesn't end in '.jsp'.

Jsp-file="/WEB-INF/index.jsp" cannot load

          Hi,
          I am defining a servlet in the web.xml file using the following syntax.
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name>TestServlet</servlet-name>
          <jsp-file>/WEB-INF/index.jsp</jsp-file>
          </servlet>
          Then when I tried to access this servlet, I get a 404 not found error. The weblogic.log
          file complains with the following message:
          java.io.FileNotFoundException: no resource '/WEB-INF/index.jsp' in servlet context
          root '/home/dev/web/apps/MyApp'

          My jsp file in located in /home/dev/web/apps/MyApp/WEB-INF/index.jsp, I know weblogic
          doesn't support jsp under WEB-INF, however, according to Sun's Servlet specification,
          anything under web-inf should be accessible to getResource and getResourceAsStream
          method, and it looks like that's what weblogic implementation is using (from the
          error message). So I am not sure whether this is weblogic issue or I am doing
          something wrong. By the way, the above config in web.xml is supported in Tomcat.


          What version of WebLogic will incorporate Servlet spec 2.4 and allow jsp under
          web-inf?

How to map jsp in web.xml

Hi,
CAn anybody tell me that how to map .jsp in web.xml
thanx
vjoy

Same as servlets, except that you specify jsp-file in place of servlet-class - see below
<servlet>
     <servlet-name>MyJspServlet</servlet-name>
     <jsp-file>/jspServlet.jsp</jsp-file>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
     <servlet-name>MyJspServlet</servlet-name>
     <url-pattern>/myJspServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>cheers,
ram.

Problem in executing a JSP file that includes a Custm tag

Hi,
I am very new to JSP,especially custom tags. I tried to run my first custom tag program but i cud not succeed.
I tried to run it using Tomcat as well J2ee1.3. But still cud not c the output.
I have placed jsp file,TLD etc in Web inf of root dir and class file inside classes folder..but i got some error saying tag with prefix not found in the tag library...
i tried in all the ways but all in vain... I will post my code and exact error i faced.. can anyone help me soon to see the output?
WelcomCtag.java

Multiple tlds in web.xml
Have multiple taglib elements in your web.xml - see below.
<jsp-config>
<taglib>
     <taglib-uri>http://example/taglib</taglib-uri>
     <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/example.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
   <taglib>
      <taglib-uri>http://anotherexample/taglib</taglib-uri>
       <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/anotherexample.tld</taglib-location>
   </taglib>
</jsp-config>The jsp-config element should be just after the servlet-mapping element in servlet 2.3 spec.
For 2.4 spec, you can put it anywhere.
In your jsp, to use the tags from the two tag libraries, use 2 taglib directives
<%@ taglib prefix="example" uri="http://example/taglib" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="anotherexample" uri="http://anotherexample/taglib" %>
<example:tag1.................>
<anotherexample:tag2.................> etc2.
Mutliple tags per tld
Have multiple <tag> elements in your tld.

Interesting snippet
If you are using a 3rd party tag library, then the tags would come packaged in a jar file. The MTEA-INF directory of the jar file would contain the tlds and the tld would have an uri element. You can use it directly in the jsp without declaring the tld file in web.xml provided the jar file is in your classpath.
For example, take the struts tag libraries, say the logic tags.
The struts.jar contains, among other things, the tag class files and the tld files (inside /META-INF/tlds)
All you have to do is put Struts.jar in the classpath (easy way to do this is put it in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your web-application).
The jar file has struts-logic-1.1.tld in the META-INF/tlds directory.
This tld file looks like this
<taglib>
<tlibversion>1.2</tlibversion>
<jspversion>1.1</jspversion>
<shortname>logic</shortname>
<uri>http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-logic</uri>
..................Now to use the tags in your jsp, you dont require the tld mappings in web.xml using the uri above in the taglib directive in your jsp
<%@ taglib prefix="example" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-logic" %> cool, right ? :)
This is how you should pkg your own tags too. The tag classes have to be jarred and the tlds should go into the META-INF of the jar so that other users can simply add the jar to the cp and start using your tags.

Storing .jsp files in the web-inf directory

Has anyone ever heard about storing JSP files in the web-inf directory instead of the web app root directory.
Apparently it improves security.
If this is so, how is the user suppose to access the jsp file since I thought that users were not able to access what is stored in the web-inf directory.
Any thoughts
Thanks
Nat

I didn't tyr this but I think it is possible. You can do it using <servlet-mapping/> as you do with any other servlet.
For example include lines below, in web.xml of web-inf,
<servlet>
<servlet-name>ReportRouter</servlet-name>
<jsp-file>/web-inf/jsp/ReportRouter.jsp</jsp-file>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ReportRouter</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/myrouter</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
This may work. Don't you think so?

How can I use a applet in a JSP file?

hi
I failed to use applet in a jsp file.My workspace is a BC4J type. I put the applet's source file in business component project.the jsp is in JSP project.
The jsp file calls applet by <jsp:plugin></jsp:plugin> style.
The error is can't find the applet class.
why? Thank someone for give me help.

Actually using jsp applet tags does not mean that it is taking care of that the classes are available. It simply renders the Applet tag tothe JSP page. If e.g. teh codebase is specified as /java/, then there should be a mapping to the Java class location with thename of /java/. If codebase is not provided, then the Java class must be in the classpath of the JSp servlet.
