Run servlets without server

Hi all of you
I've made a servlet (euSolicitudClave.class) and I don't know how run it locally, without a server.
I've compiled the java file with kawa and there's no error.
I've tomcat but I don't know how to configure and run it and what steps I must make.
Please, if someone have an idea, answer this question.
Thank you
Miguel Angel

Hi,
1) You need to have java jdk1.2 or 1.3
2) You incude tools.jar in the classpath.
Add this line to autoexec.bat
set JAVA_HOME=c:/jdk1.2
set CLASSPATH=c:/jdk1.2/lib/tools.jar
set ANT_HOME=c:/jakarta-tomcat/
set TOMCAT_HOME=c:/jakarta-tomcat/
3) Then run the startup.bat from the command prompt.
4) goto localhost:8080 here.
Tomcat server is configured by using files in the conf directory of jakarta-tomcat.
1)server.xml
Used to setup web application for server
2) web.xml
Provides the configuration for the web application.
The default location for classes directory are
webpages/WEB-INF/classes.
I hope this will help you.
Thanks

Running servlet without using 8080 on url

Hello
I want to run a servlet without having to use 8080 on the url ex. myserver.com:8080/test/servlet/helloserv
I set up Apache and Tomcat to work together, since the examples work fine without the using 8080. But when I create a new context outside of webapps folder, and tried to run the servlet it says that page can't be found but when I add the port 8080(for tomcat), it works fine. How do I fix this problem so that I don't need to put the 8080 in order to run the servlet.
Thanks a lot.

use port 80 assuming it is not used already....change it in server.xml file

you have to enable the invoker servlet.

How to run servlet by using main?

How can I use main to run servlet?
I cannot put request and response object into doGet(request, response) method
I want this because I want to run this servlet daily and I plan to put it in cron job

Hi
Perhaps you cannot run servlet without using browser. But you can make that program as an application in order to run in Dos or Unix shell.
But still you can run servlet without using browser How?
You can debug servlets with the same jdb commands you use to debug an applet or an application. The JavaTM Servlet Development Kit (JSDK) provides a standalone program
called servletrunner that lets you run a servlet without a web browser. On most systems, this program simply runs the java sun.servlet.http.HttpServer command. You
can, therefore, start a jdb session with the HttpServer class.
A key point to remember when debugging servlets is that Java Web server and servletrunner achieve servlet loading and unloading by not including the servlets directory on
the CLASSPATH. This means the servlets are loaded using a custom classloader and not the default system classloader.
Running servletrunner in Debug Mode
Running Java Web ServerTM in Debug Mode
Running servletrunner in Debug Mode
In this example, the servlets examples directory is included on the CLASSPATH. You can configure the CLASSPATH for debug mode as follows:
Unix
$ export CLASSPATH=./lib/jsdk.jar:./examples:$CLASSPATH
Windows
$ set CLASSPATH=lib\jsdk.jar;examples;%classpath%
To start the servletrunner program you can either run the supplied startup script called servletrunner or just supply the servletrunner classes as a parameter to jdb. This
example uses the parameter to servletrunner.
$ jdb sun.servlet.http.HttpServer
Initializing jdb...
0xee2fa2f8:class(sun.servlet.http.HttpServer)
> stop in SnoopServlet.doGet
Breakpoint set in SnoopServlet.doGet
> run
run sun.servlet.http.HttpServer
running ...
main[1] servletrunner starting with settings:
port = 8080
backlog = 50
max handlers = 100
timeout = 5000
servlet dir = ./examples
document dir = ./examples
servlet propfile = ./examples/servlet.properties
To run SnoopServlet in debug mode, enter the following URL in a browser where yourmachine is the machine where you started servlet runner and 8080 is the port number
displayed in the settings output.
http://yourmachine:8080/servlet/SnoopServlet
In this example jdb stops at the first line of the servlet's doGet method. The browser will wait for a response from your servlet until a timeout is reached.
main[1] SnoopServlet: init
Breakpoint hit: SnoopServlet.doGet (SnoopServlet:45)
Thread-105[1]
We can use the list command to work out where jdb has stopped in the source.
Thread-105[1] list
41 throws ServletException, IOException
42 {
43 PrintWriter out;
44
45 => res.setContentType("text/html");
46 out = res.getWriter ();
47
48 out.println("<html>");
49 out.println("<head>
<title>Snoop Servlet
</title></head>");
Thread-105[1]
The servlet can continue using the cont command.
Thread-105[1] cont
Running Java Web Server in Debug Mode
The JSDK release does not contain classes available in the Java Web server and it also has its own special servlet configuration. If you cannot run your servlet from
servletrunner, then the other option is to run the Java Web server in debug mode.
To do this add the -debug flag for the first parameter after the java program. For example in the script bin/js change the JAVA line to look like the following. In releases prior
to the Java 2 platform release, you will also need to change the program pointed to by the variable $JAVA to java_g instead of java.
Before:
exec $JAVA $THREADS $JITCOMPILER $COMPILER $MS $MX \
After:
exec $JAVA -debug $THREADS $JITCOMPILER
$COMPILER $MS $MX \
Here is how to remotely connect to the Java Web Server. The agent password is generated on the standard output from the Java Web Server so it can be redirected into a file
somewhere. You can find out where by checking the Java Web Server startup scripts.
jdb -host localhost -password <the agent password>
The servlets are loaded by a separate classloader if they are contained in the servlets directory, which is not on the CLASSPATH used when starting the Java Web server.
Unfortunately, when debugging remotely with jdb, you cannot control the custom classloader and request it to load the servlet, so you have to either include the servlets
directory on the CLASSPATH for debugging or load the servlet by requesting it through a web browser and then placing a breakpoint once the servlet has run.
In this next example, the jdc.WebServer.PasswordServlet is included on the CLASSPATH when Java Web server starts. The example sets a breakpoint to stop in the service
method of this servlet, which is the main processing method of this servlet.
The Java Web Server standard output produces this message, which lets you proceed with the remote jdb session:
Agent password=3yg23k
$ jdb -host localhost -password 3yg23k
Initializing jdb...
> stop in jdc.WebServer.PasswordServlet:service
Breakpoint set in jdc.WebServer.PasswordServlet.service
> stop
Current breakpoints set:
jdc.WebServer.PasswordServlet:111
The second stop lists the current breakpoints in this session and shows the line number where the breakpoint is set. You can now call the servlet through your HTML page. In
this example, the servlet is run as a POST operation
<FORM METHOD="post" action="/servlet/PasswordServlet">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT SIZE=15 Name="user" Value="">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT Name="Submit" Value="Submit">
</FORM>
You get control of the Java Web Server thread when the breakpoint is reached, and you can continue debugging using the same techniques as used in the Remote Debugging
section.
Breakpoint hit: jdc.WebServer.PasswordServlet.service
(PasswordServlet:111) webpageservice Handler[1] where
[1] jdc.WebServer.PasswordServlet.service
(PasswordServlet:111)
[2] javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service
(HttpServlet:588)
[3] com.sun.server.ServletState.callService
(ServletState:204)
[4] com.sun.server.ServletManager.callServletService
(ServletManager:940)
[5] com.sun.server.http.InvokerServlet.service
(InvokerServlet:101)
A common problem when using the Java WebServer and other servlet environments is that Exceptions are thrown but are caught and handled outside the scope of your servlet.
The catch command allows you to trap all these exceptions.
webpageservice Handler[1] catch java.io.IOException
webpageservice Handler[1]
Exception: java.io.FileNotFoundException
at com.sun.server.http.FileServlet.sendResponse(
FileServlet.java:153)
at com.sun.server.http.FileServlet.service(
FileServlet.java:114)
at com.sun.server.webserver.FileServlet.service(
FileServlet.java:202)
at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(
HttpServlet.java:588)
at com.sun.server.ServletManager.callServletService(
ServletManager.java:936)
at com.sun.server.webserver.HttpServiceHandler
.handleRequest(HttpServiceHandler.java:416)
at com.sun.server.webserver.HttpServiceHandler
.handleRequest(HttpServiceHandler.java:246)
at com.sun.server.HandlerThread.run(
HandlerThread.java:154)
This simple example was generated when the file was not found, but this technique can be used for problems with posted data. Remember to use cont to allow the web server
to proceed. To clear this trap use the ignore command.
webpageservice Handler[1] ignore java.io.IOException
webpageservice Handler[1] catch
webpageservice Handler[1]
I hope this will help you.

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

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.

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.

How to run Servlet in Tomcat 5.5.7 Server

Hi,
How to run Servlet in Tomcat 5.5.7 Server. I mean where I should copy my *.class file.
Thanks in Advance.
bbye.

In order to complile the servlet you need to tell java where to find the servlet libary (as stated above by setting the class path). or (much easier IMO)
copy the servlet-api.jar to
JavaInstallDirectory\jre\lib\ext

How to run servlets in IIS Server

Hi Techies,
I had read in one book , in IIS server we can run servlets n jsp.
Can u guys tell how can we run servlets n jsp in IIS server. Does we need to include some 3rd party software in IIS
regards,
KRish

Well if you were to use apache you would use the
mod_jk_apache2
However, im really not sure if that is around for win32 systems. However, as i said above im not 100% on windows systems.
If you really want to test portability set aside a 5gb partition and install linux which most standard distros already have apache2/tomcat installed.(Fedora)
Also i have to agree this seems less and less java based and more and more system based.
If you plan on taking the route mentioned above start a post at places like linuxquestions.org since they have more tech junkies then you could imagine.

How to run report without report server

hi
my question : how i can run report without using the report server; by simple URL to the report stored in directory and accessing by HTTPserver; and the report is running by the local client runtime.
thinks for replay

hello,
what you could try, is to associate the RDF/REP extension with a mimetype (e.g. application/oracle.reports) on the server and then add this mimetype to the browser applications associated with the reports runtime executable.

Can I run Servlets in the Sun App Server?

I am trying to run a servlet. I am not sure if I can run the same using the Sun app server. any help to clarify the following queries would be appreciated.
1. Should I have to specify a path in the environmental variables?
2. Is there a web site that tells me the same with respect to running the servlet on a Sun app server.
Thanks in advance.
--Srikanta

I'm not sure what you want in regards to question, but I can assure you that you can run servlets in S1AS7. My recommendation is to just package your servlet into a web archive (war) and deploy it. You can deploy it via the commandline (asadmin) or the web based administrative client (likely http://localhost:4848). For more information on this I suggest reading:
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-7150-10/index.html
You must likely want to read the section on assembling and deploying web applications.

Running as a server without a screen

Hi all, i have come to rely on these forums!
I have recently got my G4 (details below) back off my dad (he's upgraded to a nice new iMac!) so i am going to upgrade the hard drive and use it as a server for appletv
i currently have it hooked up without a screen in a cupboard and am accessing it from my other computers via screen sharing
my first question is, is it ok to run it without a screen? Secondly when i screen share the g4 the wallpaper is pale blue but with the screen attached it is the 10.5.6 purple-stars one - not sure why it's behaving like this or if it's a problem.
As always, many thanks in advance

Can Java create HTML tables without running a web server?

Hello,
I would like to know if Java can output data into a simple HTML-like table without having to run a web server or jsp etc.
I want my program to access a database and print records in HTML-like table cells.
It is actually for an events calendar program, where each event would be printed in a cell (date). There would be a variable number of events per cell (date), with each one being editable.
I have seen various "web" calendars like this but I want to make it a desktop application so that it is not dependant on the functioning (or non-functioning!) of a web server.
Can Java do this? I would settle for any type of prewritten table creator (not necessarily HTML) but I do not want Excel type tables or a table where entries must be GUI buttons, such as in Outlook.
Thank you very much for any idea you may have,
Cat

Thank you for the replies :)
I found something with Jeditorpane (JTextComponent and HTML Text Display) at
http://msp-of.de/oreilly/books/javaenterprise/jfc/ch03_21.htm
which looks like what I want. It allows hyperlinks within the table cells and I'm not sure if JTable allows for that. Also, I will want multiple lines and even images (eg moon phases for the calendar) in each cell. I ran the example above and it works great. And yes, it makes use of the HyperlinkListener.
I don't want to create an HTML file for those who suggested that. I just want the flexibility of HTML formatting withing my standalone Java application.
I am still not sure why everyone is suggesting JTable though :) So I will look at it some more. The link above also has a turorial on JTable and does say its faster that JEditor pane because it doesn't have to do any HTML rendering. But it doesn't look to me like it can really ever look like a calendar.....
Thank you again! Being a total Java novice, I am very impressed with how easy JEditorpane is.

can anyone help me clarify my doubt plz

That would occur if either the content type in the header is wrong (e.g. it is not text nor image, those content types with which the useragent used is associated), or if you have set content disposition in the header to attachment instead of inline.
So, doublecheck the headers.

Write a servlet without doGet() and doPost() methods

Hi,
Can we write a servlet without doGet() and doPost() methods ?

public class MyCoolServlet extends HttpServlet
public void init(ServletConfig servletConfig) throws ServletException
public void service(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException
// your code here
}Just an example on how to do it.
A servlet is loaded by server (before any request). It will run the init function. Then pick up an request, spawn a thread and put this servlet code into the thread, give it session, request and response objects, then call serivce.
Remember that init is called before, outside the thread, while service is inside the thread and the last to be called. Nice place to put your code.
If you need to have some sort of init function to be called first on every request PR USER, then make your own function, and call it first in service method.
Stuff that are put in init() function might only get runned once in the entire server lifetime. Until restart.
