New Bie - Starting with JSP and Servlets

Hello fellow members,
It's my pleasure to be a part of such a wonderful forum. Today, I am here to learn JSP, Servlets, and related tech/frameworks.
I'd be thankful to any member who can guide me in the right direction.
I have good working knowledge of Core java.
I have a licensed copy of weblogic 9.2, though I have no idea how it works :).
Looking forward for some good pointers to start with. If anyone can hand hold me and tell me exercises I should do every day, there is nothing like that. I can dedicate in excess of 6 hrs daily to learn these new technologies.
Thanks in advance,

I planned to start with tomcat. Tomcat is a good choice.
I am using my cousins laptop which already has BEA weblogic 9.2 installed. He used to work as software engineer. So I thought it was better start with weblogic, than going for something else.Apparently his company is using Weblogic.
As I am serious about the whole thing weblogic is a better option. You have application servers and application servers. When I say that Weblogic is commonly only used in "real" production environments, I do not mean that "real" production environments only use Weblogic. You can use any self-respected application server to your taste. Either freeware or payware. That you're using a payware one to start with just made my eyebrows raise.
Looking for some info to get started. I have downloaded the pdf you have mentioned and started studying. I'll post my questions soon.Good luck.

Help with jsp and servlets(litterature)

I'm planning on converting a asp website to jsp and I need to figure out the following:
1: servlet that gives out connection objects from a pool and manages "lost" connections to a mysql db
2: a bean that has getConnection and closeConnection that is used on every jsp page.
3: servlet/bean that can check size/dimesions/filetype on a remote url image
4: Figure out what users are logged in at every given moment. result: x users are on, these are user1, user2, user3. automatic removal when session runs out. probably need a servlet for this.
I got these books:
deitel java how to program 3rd edition
deitel advanced java 2 platform how to program
The last book has a servlet and jsp section ut I suspect that java has evolved since then so thats why I'm asking if you have any other suggestions that offer more than 2 chapters. Its really basic the stuff i have :)
Its been 3 years since I've touched java so i hope you guys can recomend jsp/servlet books that can answer these questions for me and help me get started with this project?
Thanks :)

1. apache dbcp commons library.
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dbcp/
2. tomcat DataSource, which already has the dbpc logic incorporated into it.
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html
3. no idea, google may help
4. HttpSessionBindingListener. This allows you to monitor when a bean (such as a User bean) is added to the session and when it is removed from the session. This way you can track yourself which users are online.

Hey,
I am having problem deleting multiple values.
If I just select one value,it deletes it
But for multiple values the code is not working right.
If there 2 values selcted then the last value gets deleted,if there are more than 2 values selected none values delete.
Could plese check the code,and let meknow what mistake am I doing?
Please help

I have transfered the web.xml file and lib and classes folder in a WEB-INF folder and also all the JSP files. I can see he JSP file, but the 'hello worl' does not work and gives this exception!
Does any one have any idea what could be the problem?
thanks a lot
Mitra

seems the web Server code previously loaded a class only when it was used rather than when it was referenced,
ask your question in the tomcat-user mailing ! !!!

Help with JSP and logic:iterate

I have some queries hope someone can help me.
I have a jsp page call request.jsp:
====================================
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld" prefix="logic" %>
<html>
<body>
   <%@ page import="RequestData" %>
   <jsp:useBean id="RD" class="RequestData" />
   <%Iterator data = (Iterator)request.getAttribute("Data");%>
   <logic:iterate id="element" name="RD" collection="<%=data%>">
      <jsp:getProperty name="RD" property="requestID" />
      <%=element%><br>
   </logic:iterate>
</body>
</html>
And I have the RequestData.java file:
======================================
private int requestID = 1234;
public int getRequestID() { return requestID; }
The jsp page display:
======================
0 RequestData@590510
0 RequestData@5b6d00
0 RequestData@514f7f
0 RequestData@3a5a9c
0 RequestData@12d7ae
0 RequestData@e1666
Seems like the requestID is not returned. Does anybody know this?
I have done the exact one using JSP and servlets, trying to learn using JSP and custom tags. The one with JSP and servlet looks like:
============================================
<%@ page import="RequestData" %>
<%Iterator data = (Iterator)request.getAttribute("Data");
while (data.hasNext()) {
   RequestData RD = (RequestData)data.next();
   out.println(RD.getRequestID() );
}%>

Oh think I got it...
but one thing I'm not sure is...
If I use "<jsp:useBean id="RD" class="RequestData" />", do I still need "<%@ page import="RequestData" %>"?
I tried without and it gives me error...

How to upload a file into server using j2ee jsp and servlet with bean?

How to upload a file into server using j2ee jsp and servlet with bean? Please give me the reference or url about how to do that. If related to struts is more suitable.
Anyone help me please!

u don't need j2ee and struts to do file uploading. An example is as such
in JSP. u use the <input> file tag like
<input type="file"....>You need a bean to capture the file contents like
class FileUploadObj {
    private FormFile srcFile;
    private byte[] fileContent;
    // all the getter and setter methods
}Then in the servlet, you process the file for uploading
    * The following loads the uploaded binary data into a byte Array.
    FileUploadObj form = new FileUploadObj();
    byte[] byteArr = null;
    if (form.signFile != null) {
        int filesize = form.srcFile.getFileSize();
        byteArr = new byte[filesize];
        ByteArrayInputStream bytein = new ByteArrayInputStream (form.srcFile.getFileData());
        bytein.read(byteArr);
        bytein.close();
        form.setFileContent(byteArr);
    // Write file content using Writer class into the destination file in the server.

New session started with an advertizing page and all my tabs are lost

New session started with an advertizing page and all my tabs are lost. Restore the previous session is not active. How can I restore my tabs?

This advice might come too late, but, don't exit Firefox! Or if you already did, don't start it back up again!
''If Firefox is running:'' Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listed various files and folders. For best results, change the view to "Details".
(''If Firefox not running, get to this folder by pasting the following in the Run box on the start menu and pressing Enter: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and then double-click into the most recently updated semi-randomly-named folder you find there.'')
In the window that launches, scroll down and double-click into the '''sessionstore-backups''' folder. Save all files here to a safe location, such as your Documents folder, so Firefox doesn't overwrite them. We may be able to use them to recover your lost tabs.
Also, if you return to the main level of the profile folder, you may find some sessionstore files. Copy those to the safe location as well.
Could you report back on what you found?
Note: If Windows hides the .js file extension from you, you can change a setting so that you can see all file extensions (this helps when renaming files). This support article has the steps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219 or http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions
The kinds of files you may find among your sessionstore-backup files are:
* recovery.js: the windows and tabs in your currently live Firefox session (or, if Firefox is closed, your last session)
* recovery.bak: a backup copy of recovery.js
* previous.js: the windows and tabs in your last Firefox session
* upgrade.js-''build_id'': the windows and tabs in the Firefox session that was live at the time of your last update

Urgent: problem with sharing HttpSession object between Jsp and servlets.

Hi,
          We are using weblogic 6.0 sp2.
          I m setting a particular object in session in a servlet using
          session.setAttribute() but when i try to retrieve that object using
          session.getAttribute() in a jsp page the value of that object is null. Is
          there any way to configure HttpSession in weblogic so that jsps and servlet
          can share the same session? Or any workaround for this problem.
          Any help in this regard is appreciated.
          Thanks
          -Shree


Just a guess, but it sounds like you have cookies turned off and are not
          using encodeURL. Try enabling cookies and see if that solves the problem.
          Also, it is generally good practice to use encodeURL to protect yourself
          from users who disable session cookies.
          Here's how we use encodeURL in our Servlets:
          gotoPage("/jsp/someJSP.jsp");
          private void gotoPage( String address,
          HttpServletRequest request,
          HttpServletResponse response )
          throws ServletException, IOException
          RequestDispatcher dispatcher =
          etServletContext().getRequestDispatcher( response.encodeURL( address ));
          dispatcher.forward( request, response );

Deploying a WAR file containing .jsp and servlets (also uses JNI)

Deploying a WAR file containing .jsp and servlets (also uses JNI) on Windows 2000
We had problems making it initially work on Sun ONE Web Server 6.0 Service Pack 1 because of lack of good iPlanet Web
Server documentation on deploying such files.
This is how we went about it:
1) Make one of the servlet and JSP (must call another Java Class) web application (.war) examples work with iPlanet Web
Server.
C:\iPlanet\Servers\plugins\servlets\examples\web-apps\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.war
and
C:\iPlanet\Servers\plugins\servlets\examples\web-apps\jakarta-examples\jarkarta-examples.war
a) Go to your Web Server Administration to deploy the application using GUI Web Application Deploy.
(We usually use command line, we experienced some issues with the GUI version, but maybe it is fixed in the new Web Server
service packs)
From browser, open http://yourserver:8888/
Click on Select a Server:Manage
Click on Virtual Server Class
Click on https-yourserver
Click on the Web Applications Tab
Then, click on Deploy Web Application
Enter the following -
WAR File On: Local
WAR File Path: C:\iPlanet\Servers\plugins\servlets\examples\web-apps\jakarta-examples\jarkarta-examples.war
Application URI: /jakarta
Installation Directory: c:\iPlanet\examples\jakarta-examples
By clicking on OK it deployed the application.
I can verify that it is deployed by selecting "Edit Web Applications" and I see the following entry:
Edit     /jakarta     c:/iPlanet/examples/jakarta-examples
Also, c:/iPlanet/examples/jakarta-examples should have the similar following directory structure ..
- [images]
- [jsp]
- index.html
- [servlets]
- [META-INF]
- [WEB-INF]
- [classes]
- [tlds]
- web.xml
- index.html
I restarted the server and accessed it using the following URL from my IE browser:
http://yourserver/jakarta/index.html
Then I clicked on the JSP Examples and tried some JSP examples.
b) Alternatively, you can also deploy the same example from the command-line.
Make sure C:\iPlanet\Servers\bin\https\httpadmin\bin\ is in your path
wdeploy deploy      -u /jakarta
          -i yourserver
          -v https-yourserver
          -d c:\iplanet\examples\jakarta-examples
          C:\iPlanet\Servers\plugins\servlets\examples\web-apps\jakarta-examples\jarkarta-examples.war
Restart the web server (I don't think you have to restart, but .. might as well).
2)Deploy your web-application
My Foo.war has the following structure.
You can use jar tf Foo.war to look at the file contents from command line (assuming you have JDK installed and the bin is
in your PATH)
Foo.war
- [META-INF]
- [WEB-INF]
- web.xml
- [classes]
- Bar.class
- MoServlet.class
- [lib]
- ThirdParty.jar
- [natlib]
- extlib.dll
- foo.jsp
Here is our application scenario:
foo.jsp uses a class call Bar (it is not in any package). The Bar java class uses classes from ThirdParty.jar. The
ThirdParty.jar in turn uses JNI to load library extlib.dll. foo.jsp also calls /servlet/Mo as well.
Now to deploy it, do the following:
(a) Make sure that within foo.jsp, you import the Bar class ( I don't know why you have to do it, but if you don't you get
JSP compile error).
<%@page language="java" import="Bar" contentType="text/html"%>
(b) Check web.xml (for Servlets)
Within web.xml, make sure you have the following mappings:
<servlet>
<servlet-name> MoLink </servlet-name>
<servlet-class> MoServlet </servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name> MoLink </servlet-name>
<url-pattern> /servlet/Mo </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
(c) Deploy the application
Using command line:
wdeploy deploy      -u /foo
          -i yourserver
          -v https-yourserver
          -d c:\iplanet\examples\foo-dir
          Foo.war
(d) Change web-apps.xml file (for picking up ThirdParty.jar)
It is located in
C:\iPlanet\Servers\https-yourserver\config
You should see something similar to following after successful deployment.
<web-app uri="/foo" dir="C:\iPlanet\examples\foo-dir" enable="true"/>
Change it to look like following to pick up the ThirdParty.jar
<web-app uri="/foo" dir="C:\iPlanet\examples\foo-dir" enable="true">
<class-loader reload-interval="300"
          classpath="C:/iPlanet/examples/foo-dir/WEB-INF/lib/ThirdParty.jar"
          delegate="false"/>
</web-app>
(e) Change jvm12.conf file (for JNI)
It is located in
C:\iPlanet\Servers\https-yourserver\config
Add or uncomment the following lines:
#optional - just helps with instrumenting the jsp and servlet code
jvm.include.CLASSPATH=1
jvm.enableDebug=1
nes.jsp.enabledebug=1
jvm.trace=7
jvm.verboseMode=1
#required for JNI
java.compiler=NONE
jvm.classpath=.;C:\JDK1.3.1\lib\tools.jar;C:/iPlanet/Servers/plugins/servlets/examples/legacy/beans.10/SDKBeans10.jar;
jvm.option=-Xrs
jvm.option=-Xnoagent
# not sure if this is needed for iPlanet web server
jvm.option=-Djava.library.path=C:/iPlanet/examples/foo-dir/natlib/ -Djava.compiler=NONE
(f) Change magnus.conf file (for JNI)
We HAD to change this file in order for ThirdParty.jar file to pick up the native C++ code using JNI. Apparently, the
iPlanet Web Server doesn't pick the Environment Variable Path. Because when we had the directory containing the DLL just
in Path, it didn't work.
Change Extrapath directive:
ExtraPath C:/iPlanet/Servers/bin/https/bin;${NSES_JRE_RUNTIME_LIBPATH}
to
ExtraPath c:/iPlanet/examples/foo-dir/natlib;C:/iPlanet/Servers/bin/https/bin;${NSES_JRE_RUNTIME_LIBPATH}
(g) Apply changes from the Web Server Administration Console and Restart the web server.
You should be able to see the behaviour that you want from your application.
http://yourserver/foo/foo.jsp
Hope this was helpful!!!

<web-app uri="/foo" dir="C:\iPlanet\examples\foo-dir" enable="true"/>
Change it to look like following to pick up the ThirdParty.jar
<web-app uri="/foo" dir="C:\iPlanet\examples\foo-dir" enable="true">
<class-loader reload-interval="300"
          classpath="C:/iPlanet/examples/foo-dir/WEB-INF/lib/ThirdParty.jar"
          delegate="false"/>
</web-app>
(e) Change jvm12.conf file (for JNI)
It is located in
C:\iPlanet\Servers\https-yourserver\config
Add or uncomment the following lines:
#optional - just helps with instrumenting the jsp and servlet code
jvm.include.CLASSPATH=1
jvm.enableDebug=1
nes.jsp.enabledebug=1
jvm.trace=7
jvm.verboseMode=1
#required for JNI
java.compiler=NONE
jvm.classpath=.;C:\JDK1.3.1\lib\tools.jar;C:/iPlanet/Servers/plugins/servlets/examples/legacy/beans.10/SDKBeans10.jar;
jvm.option=-Xrs
jvm.option=-Xnoagent
# not sure if this is needed for iPlanet web server
jvm.option=-Djava.library.path=C:/iPlanet/examples/foo-dir/natlib/ -Djava.compiler=NONE
(f) Change magnus.conf file (for JNI)
We HAD to change this file in order for ThirdParty.jar file to pick up the native C++ code using JNI. Apparently, the
iPlanet Web Server doesn't pick the Environment Variable Path. Because when we had the directory containing the DLL just
in Path, it didn't work.
Change Extrapath directive:
ExtraPath C:/iPlanet/Servers/bin/https/bin;${NSES_JRE_RUNTIME_LIBPATH}
to
ExtraPath c:/iPlanet/examples/foo-dir/natlib;C:/iPlanet/Servers/bin/https/bin;${NSES_JRE_RUNTIME_LIBPATH}
(g) Apply changes from the Web Server Administration Console and Restart the web server.
You should be able to see the behaviour that you want from your application.

Help,JSP and SERVLETS!

hello:
i've downloaded ECLIPSE 3.2,TOMCAT 5.5 .
i tried to build simples examples o servlets but i failed could you please tell me how to proceed?i'm new at this plus i've got a project to do with all this so plz can you give some links to go,i tried but no links was clear.

i wil give up on talking about stupid gossip
you must act professional and i you can't help it's ok
so plz i juste want help
i'm so busy finishing my studies
when it comes to talk about development with tomcat and eclipse together i'm new so i need some advices,so plz let's be serious!
i'm working hard to finish my project!Try to communicate less like a monkey with electrodes attached to it's genitals. This means stop using words like "plz" and write "please" instead.
If you want specific help with a specific problem then you should ask a specific question. "help, JSP and SERVLETS" is not a specific question. And you should also note that if your specific question is about Tomcat specifically or Eclipse specifically then you are in the wrong place to begin with.
So do you want to try again?

JSP and servlets

Am I correct in assuming that JSP is an extention of servlets and that to learn JSP in effect means learning about servlets? My point is, is JSP the superior technology a bit like learning JDK1.4 is now a pointless excercise as it has been superceded by 1.5 ?
thanks

Am I correct in assuming that JSP is an extention of
servletsYes.
and that to learn JSP in effect means
learning about servlets? No. This isn't necessary, as a matter of fact, it is one of the reasons why JSP exists - so people with little or no Java knowledge can build dynamic web sites using Servlet containers, assuming they have Java programmers behind them to build the tags / glue to the web app.
Still, I say having basic understanding of Servlets (at least) will help you out.
My point is, is JSP the
superior technology No. JSP has a different role. It makes display easier to code for non-Java programmers (looks more like HTML/XML), and easier to support and understand later on.
JSP does horribly bad at complex application control, data selection and manipulation, or as an interface to external resources. Java and Servlets are better at these tasks (but conversly, are horrible to work with for display purposes).
They are different, JSPs and Servlets, in what task they do. J2EE is far superior when you use them both appropriately.
a bit like learning JDK1.4 is now
a pointless excercise as it has been superceded by
1.5 ?No.
JSP is a newer technology, but should not be used to replace Servlets, but used along side Servlets to provide a better designed and manageable application.
Let the servlets control what pages the user sees when, to gather data, to talk with external resources. Then forward to a JSP which simply displays what the Servlet did all the work in getting.

SQLJ JSP and SERVLETS which Environment?

Hello,
I am attempting to run the samples on Chapter 5 of the
following documents with partial success.
http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_
doc/java.817/a83726/oraext2.htm
http://download-west.oracle.com/otndoc/oracle9i/901_doc/java.901/
a90208/oraext.htm#1015820
1. Do I need the Apache+Jserv environment to run SQLJ and JSP?
2. What do I need to do run SQLJ on oc4j if possible?
3. I dont know how to load(?) and/or run this .sqljsp file.
<%@ page language="sqlj"
import="sqlj.runtime.ref.DefaultContext,oracle.sqlj.runtime.Oracl
e" %>
<HTML>
<HEAD> <TITLE> The SQLJQuery JSP </TITLE> </HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="white">
<% String empno = request.getParameter("empno");
if (empno != null) { %>
<H3> Employee # <%=empno %> Details: </H3>
<%= runQuery(empno) %>
<HR><BR>
<% } %>
<B>Enter an employee number:</B>
<FORM METHOD="get">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="empno" SIZE=10>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Ask Oracle");
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
<%!
private String runQuery(String empno) throws
java.sql.SQLException {
DefaultContext dctx = null;
String ename = null; double sal = 0.0; String hireDate = null;
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
try {
dctx = Oracle.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci8:@", "scott",
"tiger");
#sql [dctx] {
select ename, sal, TO_CHAR(hiredate,'DD-MON-YYYY')
INTO :ename, :sal, :hireDate
FROM scott.emp WHERE UPPER(empno) = UPPER(:empno)
sb.append("<BLOCKQUOTE><BIG><B><PRE>\n");
sb.append("Name : " + ename + "\n");
sb.append("Salary : " + sal + "\n");
sb.append("Date hired : " + hireDate);
sb.append("</PRE></B></BIG></BLOCKQUOTE>");
} catch (java.sql.SQLException e) {
sb.append("<P> SQL error: <PRE> " + e + " </PRE> </P>\n");
} finally {
if (dctx!= null) dctx.close();
return sb.toString();
%>
I named above file as test2.sqljsp then I tried these procedures:
a) $ ojspc test2.sqljsp --these created all the files
b) $ loadjava -u -v scott/tiger _test2.class -resolve
this generated:
initialization complete
loading : _test2
creating : _test2
resolver :
resolving: _test2
errors : _test2
ORA-29521: referenced name test2$_jsp_StaticText could not
be found
ORA-29521: referenced name test2SJProfileKeys could not be
found loadjava: 2 errors
c) listed the directory and both these files are there but it
cannot resolve or find it?
d) I recall reading something about publishjsp command but I have
to establish a session shell with OSE? this part is very
confusing and am not sure what to do here.
e) not sure if i need to publish the loaded class (create a
procedure? so it can be known to the rest of plsql?)
A step by step procedure is very much appreciated. fyi.. I
have Oracle 8.1.7, + oc4j, I can run sqlj from command line
and class files generated I can run. I can also run JSP and
servlets on the oc4j accessing the database. It is this SQLJ
that throws me off balance. If you include Jdeveloper steps
ro run SQLJ thats also welcome.
Thanks in advance for kind responses posted.

In many Model-View-Controller web applications implemented using J2EE, servlets are as controllers to direct the flow between the model and view. While servlets can output HTML code directly, it is much better to use JSPs for the most part. JSPs contain HTML and possibly Java scriptlets. The J2EE container will typically compile JSPs into servlets. While you could use a JSP as a controller, there are drawbacks to that approach. To minimize the amount of Java code in your JSPs, you can either use the tags provided by the JSP spec or use tag libraries written by someone else or yourself. See the JSTL for one such example.
