Running Tomcat v5.0.28 as a service w/ BEA JRockit v1.4.2_04

Target platform - Windows 2000 Server sp4.
Using Sun's SDK/JRE implementation (v1.4.2_04), we had no problems getting Tomcat 5.0.28 to run as a service. However, the same cannot be said for BEA JRockit v1.4.2_04.
Summary...
I've already done some online research and I know that there is a wrapper.properties file that is required. Further, a couple of online references specify the file's certain variable definitions, but one source had posted its info truncated and the other's info didn't work at all. I also know that wrapper.properties should be placed at [Tomcat install dir]\conf\. Tomcat is configured correctly to see the default JRockit installation directory (c:\jrockit-j2sdk1.4.2_04\).
So if possible, what I would like to know is:
1) The confirmed location for wrapper.properties.
2) The complete list of correct statement lines for wrapper.properties. A template file here would work.
3) Any relevant Operating System Environment variables.
4) Any additional required files and/or operations.
In a pinch, we can live with the Sun JRE implementation for our development environment. But we would rather have our development environment completely mirror our production environment which implements BEA JRockit.
Thanks for your time and help. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I replied to the wrong thread before, re-posting:
Interesting, it might be connected to the optimization of throwException, please try to run with -Xnoopt to see if you can detect any difference. I'll make another post with my further findings.

Running Tomcat as a service

I have two questions about running Tomcat as a service.
First, when I try to install and start tomcat 3.3.2 with the java sdk 1.4.0 using jk_nt_service, the service won't start. When I execute the following command, jk_nt_service -S Tomcat-3.3-2-Dev, I get a response of Tomcat-3.3.2-Dev failed to start. When I execute the following command, net start Tomcat-3.3.2-Dev, I get a system error 1067 response. Does anyone know how to get around this error?
Second, if we try to run Tomcat 4.1.27 as a service, we get very slow response compared to running startup.bat in the bin directory. Does anyone know why this is and what could be done to improve the performance?
Jim Field

I don't know the answer to the first question.
Regarding the second one: when you say "slow response", do you mean for every request you send to the service compared to sending the same request to Tomcat started with startup.bat, or are you referring to just starting the service?
Have you measured the response time for a number of requests to both the service and script-started Tomcat, or is this a subjective judgement? MOD

Eroor in eclipse when i have run TOMCAT in debuge mode web service debuging

hello all,
i have a serious problem with debug my web service. I set local variable in eclipse (-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=8000). And now if i run TOMCAT in normal mode all worked fine and i run remote java application fine, but if i run TOMCAT in debug mode, eclipse in console return error:
"Error occurred during initialization of VM
agent library failed to init: jdwp
ERROR: Cannot load this JVM TI agent twice, check your java command line for duplicate jdwp options."
If anyone have this problem please tell me how to resolved it.
Thank for help.

Eclipse is kind of a competing product so this is not the best place to ask the question. With that most will be nice enough to lend a hand. I suggest ensuring that all other instances of tomcat are stopped then try again. In the Debug perspective ensure there are no servers running with the same name as the one you are attempting to use. If all else fails ensure there are no tomcat process running if they are kill them. Finally, if you cant get it to work reboot. If still no good the Eclipse might be a better place to go.

Shutdown hook not getting called when running tomcat as a service

I have a shutdown hook as part of a lifecycle <Listener> tomcat6 class, which gets created and registered in the class's constructor (class is referenced in the server.xml). The hook gets called during shutdown when tomcat has been started from a shell, but not when tomcat has been installed as a service. The -Xrs flag doesn't make a difference either way. I am running java 6u12 server VM (haven't tried client) and prior versions. Does anyone have any ideas? This has been tested by starting/stopping from the Control Panel, and also with 'tomcat6 //TS/ServiceName' (i.e. in test mode)
One possibility is that tomcat internally calls Runtime.halt(), but the shutdown process appears to be normal and the same with either scenario. The other possibility is that the JVM has an issue. The tomcat user groups don't have anything to offer.
Thoughts?

I didn't post here to be a smart ars like you and pretend that I have a solution to a rare problem... FYI - the workaround is to use the tomcat lifecycle events (AFTER_STOP_EVENT) to achieve the same - why do you think I mentioned it's a tomcat listener in the first place? Feel free to educate me.
So you are claiming that Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook() that you posted in the above is not part of the java API?
Or perhaps that everything that is added via addShutdownHook() runs?
Surely you are not claiming that it isn't calling addShutdownHook() in the first place?
Get a life and a job.I have both but thanks for the concern.

Yes I will try gdb (have cygwin) and see where this takes us - not sure if the JVM or tomcat6.exe have the symbols to get a meaningful stack trace. As luck would have it, [https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10565|https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10565] claims that "shutdown hooks are not supported in a container environment" although there is no such restriction in the servlet spec, which would make this a tomcat issue (it does sound like that tomcat6.exe wrapper is somehow involved). Unfortunately, tomcat does NOT issue the AFTER_STOP_EVENT if killed before it has completed its start-up (it appears its own shutdown hook, which sends the event, is not registered until it has fully come up); thus the need for a shutdown hook (at least, up until it's fully up). A shutdown hook is still required in my case for clean-up after tomcat is completely out of the picture. It sounds like the proper architecture here is to really embed tomcat in an application, and create a shutdown hook at the outer level.
Educate me some more. The above description certainly seems like you are suggesting that both of the following are true.
1. It is not a bug in the VM.
2. The problem, for your implementation, is in how the wrapper terminates the windows service.
Perhaps what is actually happening it that addShutdownHook() is never being called at all? Thus of course any processing of the thread associated with that would never, ever run.
And that happens because you are banging on the stop service so fast that it doesn't actually have time to spin up?

Running Tomcat from a java program

I'm writing a program that shall run Tomcat from the program itself. The eacy way would be to just call org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(String[]) in a new thread, but that gives only a little information to the program about the state of the server. Actually I would only know when the server is told to start (just before the main method is called), and when the server had stopped (just after the main method).
I have browsed the Catalina API documentation and source code for hours, but the only solution I have gotten, writes the standard startup text:
Starting service Tomcat-Standalone
Apache Tomcat/4.0.4
Starting service Tomcat-Apache
Apache Tomcat/4.0.4If I could get that to work, I would could add a LifecycleListener, and get all the info. I need.
The essence of the code I use is this:
CatalinaService cs = new org.apache.catalina.startup.CatalinaService();
Server s = new StandardServer();
StandardService stdService = new org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService();
s.addService(stdService);
cs.setServer(s);
cs.process(new String[]{"start"});but the following also produce a simmilar result:
BootstrapService b = new org.apache.catalina.startup.BootstrapService();
b.load(new TomcatLoader(),null);
b.start();A dirty solution would be to copy the code form Bootstrap.main(String[]) and add a few lines, but I really dosn't like that. It would be a nightmare to maintain, primiarry because I would loose the functionallity of Catalinas class loader (where a lof of classes is loaded).
Does anybody know how I can get Tomcat to run, so I still get my info. and don't use any dirty solutions?

Check out the main method in the source code of class org.apache.catalina.startup.Embedded
It should help you.

Problem defining a java client on tomcat to call the esb web service

Dear Support,
I have a java program that has been incorporated on the oracle SOA suite. We now have a problem defining a java client on tomcat to call the esb web service. The Oracle SOA part is running fine”.
The software versions we are using :
1 - Oracle SOA suite on 10.1.3.3 Oracle AS
2 – Java 1.5
3 – Tomcat 5.5
4 – OS XP Professional

If you have a main method in jour generated WSclient class (by the proxy) add the following code below the //add your own code:
AddFileResponseType testResponse = myPort.addFile(testRequest);
where AddFileResponseType is the responsetype of the WS and addFile is the method to call. this is just an example of my own webservice.
Next stap is to put the cursor in the main method and choos debug or run.
This should invoke the main method en call the webservice
I hope this helps you

Running Tomcat As a Stand Alone with IIS

Hi,
I am currently running a servlet from Tomcat 4.0.1 as a standalone concurrently with IIS 5.0. I found that I was able to access the servlet page (http://adt.barra.com:8080/examples/Test1) from computers within my company but when I tried to display the page at my home computer, I get a page cannot be displayed error�The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. Do I need to run Tomcat as a service or do I actually have to incorporate the two using isapi_redirect.dll? Or maybe it�s just that computer. The machines at work runs WinNT and Win2K but my home computer runs Win98. Thanks.

As a previous poster stated the Firewall at your work is probebly stopping the traffic from coming in. You might be able to get away with this using the IIS isapi that tomcat provides, however you may still have firewall issues. If your network/security guys are not to anal about it, they might be able to open up pot 8080 for incoming traffic to that server only. Otherwise, you may want to try the Tomact isapi.
Hope that helps to clarify it a bit... ;)

Problems running tomcat on win XP

Hi!
I've just downloaded and installed the JWSDP on Windows XP Professional, but when I try to use Tomcat it starts but then terminates instantly. Can anyone help me with this?
thanks, Ylva

Are you sure its terminating? You will not get an open window when you run tomcat, just a minimised toolbar window.
If it is definitely terminating, have a look at the log file to see what error (if any) is produced - JWSDP_HOME\logs\catalina.out
Also make sure that you are not running any other application which might be using port 8080.

If you are trying to create a Tuxedo service in Java using WTC you need to develop an EJB that implements the TuxedoService interface and register its home in JNDI so WTC can look it up. Once that is done you can then export the service to a remote domain in the WTC configuration.

Re: Using already running Tomcat server for development.

Hi Nick,
Yes, you can use existing Tomcat Server for debugging app developed with
NitroX. And you can refer to Help > Help Contents > NitroX User Guide >
NitroX Tour > Running and debugging the application.
We do support Tomcat 4.0.x to Tomcat 5.0.x. If you need any further
assistance please get back to us.

Do I need to redeploy and run tomcat every time I�m changing something?

Guys,
I�m using MyEclipse as the IDE to develop struts application. I am a newbie to this topic (but doing just fine)
Anyway, I do this:
I write my code, deploy it, run Tomcat and than I click the site to see the results.
sometime I am changing the words or the code and than want to see the changes, for this, and this is the point I think I do wrong, I STOP Tomcat, Redeploy, START tomcat and refer back to the site (imagine the how long it takes)
Is there a better way only to redeploy so everything will take effect immediately?
Why when I change something in the AppliatinResources it doesn't kick in?
Thanks

I use MyEclipse and Tomcat and changes are reflected within a few seconds after making changes without redeploying.
I have noticed that when adding servlets and modifying servlets, it takes a few seconds for changes to show while the context reloads.

Running Tomcat v5.0.28 as a service w/ BEA JRockit v1.4.2_04
