Updating War File for existing Application Issue

I have a web application that is currently deployed and running on a linux SunOne WebServer 7.0 U2.
I use the web admin interface to update the (running) web application with a new WAR file and using the "PreCompile JSP" option.
Once the web application has been updated and deployed, I get a 500 server error on the web application. Here is a snippet from the log.

If I stop the server instance and start it back then the directory "/apps/SunWebsvr7/https-interakt/generated/interakt/ssl/onlineenroll/loader/org/apache/struts/" is created when the web application starts up and the web application runs as expected.
Does anyone know what I can do to be able to hot deploy a web application and not get this error?
Any help would be appreciated.

after more research I have determined that the update process is deleting the loader folder when it completes the update process. The problem is that the web application needs this folder because the third party tag library definitions are stored underneath the loader folder. Here is where the loader folder is located.
/<SunOneInstallDir>/<ServerName>/generated/<web-app-name>/<context>/loader
When I stop the server instance and start it back up then the loader folder is created and sets the tab library definitions appropriately.
So the problem seems to be with the update process.

Advantages and disadvantages creation of war file in web application......

Hi friends.... I'm new to java....
according to my little knowledge creating a war file is optional,
but i don't know if we directly deployed web application like servlet application in the web server(ex: webapps in TOMCAT)
what problems may get if my computer system not in the network and what problems may get if my computer system in the network....i know we must create a war file for appropriate application if the server is in remote place....
please reply.....thank you

Isn't it easier to deploy one file than it is to deploy dozens, hundreds, even thousands?

How to package a .war file for multiple locations...

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I wasn't sure where to place it.
We have a webapp (.war) that we would like to package to distribute to multiple remote locations. We have to assume that the people installing this webapp have no Java/J2EE experience and will not have the technical know-how to be able to handle packaging the .war file themselves.
They do, however, need to be able to make configuration changes to the JDBC settings in the web.xml, the logging settings in log4j.xml, and configuration changes in the context.xml.
Since these files reside inside the .war, what is the best way to package this application so they can make changes to those files and package it to deploy on their application servers?
Thanks!

Well, the best way is to move that configuration out of those XML files and manage them directly from you application.
Then you can use the Java Preferences API to actually maintain the configuration data, and that data is stored outside of your application completely in some JRE dependent way (Registry on Windows, and the users home directory on Unix for Sun's JRE).
You can also modify your webapp to manage the configuration directly and have it rewrite the XML files itself. The Java Preferences API is better just because the config changes will survive if you happen to update the WAR file with a new version. Of course, you can still leverage the Preference API, get your "defaults" from the supplied XML files in the WAR, and then if your application detects a version change (the one in the Preferences is different from the one in the WAR), the app can update the XML files, and pop up a page telling the user to restart the application to see the new changes.
Finally, you can also write a Swing app that presents the few options that the user might need, and then it has the smarts to update the WAR file for them (it's simply a ZIP file and Java can read/write those). That way you have a simple wizard they can play with.
Also, for things like log4j, you can bundle that seperate from the WAR, and let them place it either on the CLASSPATH of their container, or in one of their shared directories (like shared/classes on Tomcat for example).
I'm fond of the Preferences technique with a Webapp configuration, as you can make your WAR almost plug and play. They plop in the war, app fires up, they hit the URL and there's a config page staring at them.
But all of these options require work outside of your application.
You can also perhaps get one of those Installer programs, and right an installer for them. You can explode the WAR in to any directory, and then have the container deploy it from there.

Where I can find .WAR file for web UI?

I would like to use jakarta project
web container for webUI.How I can accomplish
this?

Hello, I mean tomcat of jakarta.apache.org project- it's web container but .war file is web application archive as specified in servlet 2.2 spec.
Why? I need support for latest spec. servlet 2.2/jsp 1.2 that provided by tomcat 4.0 beta(as standalone it's working fine for me;)). I'll be more concrete
I need sophisticated JSP rendering engine for:
Using JSPs of developer guide:
<
Deploying Java Beans and JSPs
All compiled Java Beans must be stored in the directory $ORACLE_HOME/ifs/custom_classes on the server where Oracle iFS is installed.
The Oracle iFS product comes with a starting-point directory structure. One of the folders in that structure is reserved for holding JSPs: $ORACLE_HOME/ifs/jsp-bin. To have your JSP compile and execute properly in Oracle iFS, you must store the JSP in this folder. JSPs stored elsewhere will not be executed by the Oracle iFS JSP compiler.
>
I would like to use web UI as frontend and my JSPs/servlets as extension of this application. It's easy create custom web app if I have ready .WAR file-it's portable
between web containers and well structured... For example this schema doesn't have such constraints as location of JSPs and beans support classes location is well known-
WEB-INF/classes for .WAR structured file, in WEB-INF/lib can be placed different ifs libs and all is clean and portable;).
I mean webUI must not be integrated part of ifs- it must be developer tool( extensible and reusable).By the way who give constraints on JSPs/classes location: HTTP server of ifs
or webUI?
It's very nice that IFS has such thing as webUI but that if I can use it as dead(stable) code:(. I need write myself webUI presenting IFS document structure but why?
Web UI is future(IE 5.5/w3 and other standards based;) so why put on it such restrictions.
Best regards.
P.S I can infiltrate web app from ifs- but it's not right(I can do something wrong).If I can help you somehow tell me.

How to create a Batch file for java application ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

[http://static.springsource.org/spring-batch/]
Assuming you want to develop a batch application rather than actually just create a .bat file ..

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

Where are files for my applications kept? I'm trying to do a clean install.

I have an intel imac OS 10.6.8. I have to do a clean install and need to transfer my files to a USB flashdrive because time machine hasn't backed up in 3 months. Where are files for my applications kept?

Since you mentioned Time Machine, I'm assuming you have an external hard drive? So why not make a complete backup - either with Time Machine or a bootable clone with CarbonCopyCloner or SuperSuper? Applications sometimes transfer well, but not always - it depends how many files/parts they have on the hard drive in different locations. There is no simple answer to your question because of that - it depends on the individual application. I'd back up all of it, do the install, and then use Setup Assistant to port things back.

How to create the exe files for java application

How to create the exe file for java application?
got any software to do that?
Thanks

In terms of converting java applications into exe files, there are 3 schools of thought:
1) Instead of converting it to an exe, convert it to a jar file. Jar files are more portable than exe files because they can be double-clicked on any operating system. The caveat is that a Java interpreter must be installed on the target computer for the double-clicking to work.
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/Books/javaprogramming/JAR/
2) Create an exe launcher that, when double-clicked, attempts to find a Java interpreter on the local computer and launches the Java application. The exe file is still double-clickable but whether your java application runs depends on whether a Java interpretor is installed on the target computer.
http://www.sureshotsoftware.com/exej/
http://www.objects.com.au/products/jstart/index.jsp
http://www.duckware.com/products/javatools.html
http://www.ucware.com/jexec/
http://www.rolemaker.dk/nonRoleMaker/javalauncher/
http://www.jelude.cjb.net/
http://thor.prohosting.com/~dfolly/java/index.html
3) Create an exe launcher that bundles a Java interpretor. Same as above but when the exe file is double-clicked, it searches for a Java interpreter and if one is not found, it installs one on the target computer. The caveat is that the exe file would have an overhead of 10 MB in size for the interpreter.
http://www.excelsior-usa.com/jet.html (evaluation version available)
4) Convert the Java application into a native exe file. The caveat is that if you use Swing for your GUI, it won't be converted. Also this option is still somewhat experimental.
Can't think of any free options right now.

Multiple log4j.xml files for single application.

Hi All,
How to use multiple log4j.xml files for single application?
I do have a pluggable application modules. ie, If I add a jar I will get some functionalities. Like that i do have many jars.
Log4j.xml also will be present in that jar only. So if I add multiple jar files like this, I will get multiple log4j.xml files. What should I do?

Each logger can have its own file I think. Check the log4j documentation.

While the files are XML, I'm not sure they are fully standard XML. Even if they are, they have all kinds of data in them which requires special knowledge. For instance, libraries have icons (which are binary) and versions. Classes have a wire and control. Projects have arrays of elements which are encoded in a certain way, etc. In short, don't merge them. Also, note that current versions of TSVN auto-merge conflicts by default when you update and you need to jump through some hoops to disable that.

In my case, Windows is set to not show extensions that it "knows", so what I delete is the ".vi.2325", and the not-shown ".vi" is still present.
You should be able to configure TSVN to call the LVMerge program on LV files, which should allow you to simply click the original VI and select the conflict editing option in TSVN. No need to do this manually.
