Relative paths of servlets and JSPs

          I am trying to deploy my application in Weblogic 6.0 sp2.
          I have put my JSPs and servlets in a WAR file.
          I have mapped one of the servlets to "GuiController" in the web.xml file.
          I assume that this means if any part of my URL has "GuiController" this servlet
          would be invoked.
          In the JSP (which is in the same WAR file) I would like to specify this servlet
          as the form action.
          as follows :
          <form name="test" method="get" action="GuiController">
          I would like to give the relative path so that I don't have to hard code the web
          app name. But this does not work.
          It works if I specify :
          <form name="test" method="get" action="/edcs/GuiController">
          where edcs is my web app name
          Any suggestions on how I can achieve this without hardcoding the web app name
          Thanks

You have to deploy the web application as the default web application for
          the server. The console is broken in this regard so you have to edit the
          config.xml by hand.

Serving Java Servlets and JSP

I have a small hosting company and was wondering what is required to be installed on a Win2k Server to host Java Servlets and JSP pages for a client of mine?

Ah, so you just want to add a servlet engine to IIS5?
Tomcat can be used as a plugin for IIS. Check out the Tomcat FAQs - somewhere in there you should find one relating to using Tomcat as an IIS plugin. They're far more comprehensive than I could ever hope to be on the matter!

Creating FOrums with Servlet and JSP

Hi everyone,
Is there a good resource that explains how to build a forum using servlets and JSP technology?

Servlet and JSP in OAS

I'm developing web application with OAS
4.0.8.1 and JDeveloper 3.0 and I want to call
JSP from servlet using "RequestDispatcher".
I downloaded JSP for OAS from www.olab.com.
In the Release note, there is a description
about RequestDispatcher, but I cannot
understand about details.
In what configuration can I use servlet and
JSP together with RequestDispatcher. Anyone
scceeded about that?

I found a white paper 408newfead.pdf, that says under "Future

support
JSPs. I don't know if this release is out yet.
I wish Oracle would get with the times and put out a product that

InterMedia Java Classes for Servlets and JSPs and Netscape

I am using the interMedia Java Classes for Servlets and JSPs to upload and retrieve multimedia data. I have found that it is much more performant in Internet Explorer (5.5) than in Netscape Communicator (4.7). In fact, I cannot upload images larger than 10K at all using netscape. However, the same image can be uploaded into the same application using IE. Is this a known issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
We have successfully uploaded multimedia data in the giga-byte range (Quicktime and AVI files) at the same speed with both the Netscape (4.7n) and MS IE (4.n and 5.n) browsers. One thing we have noticed is that its very important to set the manual proxy settings correctly if you have an environment with a proxy server. If you don't, then uploads can go via the proxy server and, for some reason, that seems to take considerably longer. For example, suppose you are in the www.xyzco.com domain and are connecting to a host named webserver.www.xyzco.com, then specify webserver and webserver.www.xyzco.com (to cover both cases) in the "Do not use proxy servers for..." box in the manual proxy server configuration screen. Also, if you're using a tool such as JDeveloper that uses the host IP address in the debugger environment, then you also need to add the numeric-based (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn) IP address to this list.
Hope this helps.
In order to better understand the variety of ways in which our customers are using interMedia, we'd be very interested in knowing a little more about your application, the interMedia functionality that you are using, and how you are developing and deploying your application. If you are able to help us, please send a short email message with some information about your application, together with any comments you may have, to the Oracle interMedia Product Manager, Joe Mauro, at [email protected] Thank you!

Differences between WL or Netscape for Servlets and JSP's

What are the advantages / disadvantages of running Servlets under WL,
          vs. say, running them in Netscape's servlet engine? Assuming EJB
          container is run separately, either one of these could make calls to the
          WL EJB server, so perhaps it would be simpler and faster to run servlets
          and JSP's under Netscape, and have them call via t3 into a weblogic
          server for EJB's?

David,
          One of the major reasons to run your servlets on Weblogic is that we have an
          optimization that allows us to pass by reference objects when calling from
          servlets to EJB. This makes things much faster.
          A number of our customers, in addition, have seen performance problems when
          using other servlet engines. It just seems to cause problems due to their
          threading models etc.
          Finally, our servlet engine is by far the most mature and robust on the
          market today. Our JSP implementation is also the best in terms of
          performance.
          Thanks,

How to combine servlet and jsp

I'm doing a project. My friend using jsp. and i using servlet..
we are confused, how to combine servlet and jsp. or we can just use redirect??
but it's still doesn't work properly...thanks for your helpp

You can use RequestDispatcher interface for calling a JSP from a Servlet, or vice-versa.
Following is the code for sending output to a JSP page from a servlet:
javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher dispatcher = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(�/Ashu.jsp�);
request.setAttribute(�Name�,�Ashutosh�);
dispatcher.forward(request,response);
- Ashutosh

What do I need to compile and run Servlets and JSP?

Hi there,
What do I need to run Servlets and JSP? I am developing on a Windows platform.
As far as I know, Tomcat and JDK is needed. My JDK (1.3rc1) cannot seem to compile servlet files (javax.servlet.* not found)
Can anyone please advise?
Thank you in advance.

If you mean "in a month", then the answer is "afaik, no.", sorry.
If you need something comfortable, you better should buy one of these heavy-weighters like Weblogic, or WebSphere. Cost some $$$$'s, though (between 2000-10000. I guess).
For servlets (and ejb's too), there is no "easy and quick" solution. You probably should think about buying a freelancer or such, which already has the appropriate know-how.

User Authentication using Servlet and JSp

Hi,
I am developing a web app where i need to implement user Authentication to allow members to view and upload files on a certain directory say /data
For this i am using a servlet as a controller which then forwads request to other jsps/servlets based on user response. I tried using servlet mapping in web.xml so that all browser requests would be directed to controller servlet and would branch from there on. However the problem all RequestDispatcher.forward() requests redirected to the servlet putting it in a loop.
Is there another way to achieve this. (Apart from using form-based Basic Authentication).
I am using Resin 1.2.8 servlet/jsp container.
Any response as soon as possible would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kushagra

RequestDispatcher.forward() cause the HTTP request to be sent through the request processing flow as if the original request for the resource being forwarded to.
It seems the servlet mapping you are talking about in web.xml should be made more specific. i.e. the mapping should be such that only your so called controller servlet will match up.
You might want to specify the mapping for the controller servlet to be noticeably/effectively different from the mapping for other servlets and JSPs.

Servlet and JSP combination and design issue

My task is to generate the list box dynamically based on the input XML file.
I create a JSP page and a servlet.
http://www.myserver.com/page1.jsp
In page1.jsp, I have the following to call servlet from JSP page
<jsp:include page="myproj.TableGeneration"/>
In my case, I think I don't need servlet at all, but just Java Bean
class to generate the table. And JSP page call that Java Bean class.
But in what situation we need the combination of servlet and JSP?
What do you think? Any ideas? Thanks!

Trying to keep the data separate from the view is always a good idea
I have used XML in a similar way - the XML is the data, this is read and it is uses to populate various page beans - the beans are then simply used in the JSP page to get the information only
