Urgent : How to include Win2K CLASSPATH to Tomcat 4.2

I am running a web application on Tomcat 4.1
Tomcat 4.1 uses CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME
enviroment variables and from my knowledge of the settings
it does not utilise the Win2K CLASSPATH variable.
I use a number of *.properties files to access values and variables
so I need to set the startup program of Tomcat to include CLASSPATH.
Is this possible ?
Secondly is there any other way of making the web application recognise
these property files .
Based on some suggestions I tried including the files with classes
and adding a zip file.
It works fine with Tomcat 3.2.4 as it includes CLASSPATH on startup.
Could anyone suggest the solution for this as I searched the Tomcat websites and could not find a solution.
Thanks
manosham

I looked at the Tomcat 4 startup file and it looks like it overwrites CLASSPATH in the bin/setclasspath.bat file. You can get around that by modifying that file. Look for this line near the end:
set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar... and change it to ...
set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CLASSPATH%Hope that helps :)

How can I add classpath in tomcat 4.0.3

I am sorry to ask a newbie question but I am really dying to know the answer.
I have tomcat4.0.3 installed and working.
I have j2ee1.3.1 install and working.
I have jboss3.0.0RC installed and working.
now I want to use a EJB in tomcat application,
the source file compile correctly.
but I type http://192.168.100.24/tomcat/servlet/FirstServlet
a ServletException throwed,tomcat complain javax.ejb.EJBHome class
cannot be founded.
I think it is a problem about classpath.but the environment variable
classpath has included j2ee.jar and when I use j2ee to develop an
web application I have never met such case.later I found a article
says tomcat4.0.3 don't use system classpath.
then I found a file named setclasspath.bat in bin directory,
and I change the line 'set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%' to
'set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;%J2EE_HOME%\lib\j2ee.jar'
but the tomcat cannot startup.
how should I do.
BTW,how to get the information about tomcat fail to startup

Throw your j2ee.jar into the WEB-INF\lib directory of your web app module. The servlet should pick it up there.

How to config the CLASSPATH for Tomcat 4.0???

I use a JavaBean in a JSP file. And I use this JavaBean to connect to Oracle. Database username and password is stored in a file named "db.properties". When I browse this JSP page, It report : Cant not find db.properties file!!!
So I want know is where can I put this "db.properties"??Do I need config CLASSPATH or other para??
need your help!!
Thanks in advance!!!

did you try to put it into the /lib/ directory of your webapplication ?
I would solve this differently, I would create a servlet that takes initial parameters and puts them into the servlet context. then I would use that to put these information into the servletcontext.
Then you would not have to load a properties file everytime u access the jsp pages that does the database related procedure.
Maybe there is some place for system properties files, but this place I have not seen or how to work with it.
I place my configuration files all under web-inf/config/ and then I mapp paths to it and read as the web application starts.
hope it helps.

How to include external jars - URGENT...

Hi:
I am using Eclipse for development.
My application uses some external jars.
This step is simple in Eclipse, one simply indicates where the jars are to the IDE.
However, when I make an executable JAR file from my project, those external JARs are not included.
So when I run my program, everything is fine until the parts that uses the external JARs.
Does anyone know how to include them outside of Eclipse platform?
I am going to see my client in an hour and of course I can't bring my source and install an Eclipse at my client's computer to show them my demo...
please help... thanx...

You add those external jars to the classpath or the jars classpath if you're running the program from a jar. Or put the external jar to JAVA_HOME\lib\ext (IIRC)

How to include .jar files in coldfusion code

To Integrate our cfm code with paypal jar files we do the
following steps with our local coldfusion server ,and to run and
integrate the paypal Java SDK jar files, I think we need to do the
same process on the server, can you suggest any thing to do the
following setting for my domain on the server, without setting the
class path in coldfusion administrator.
The ColdFusion application server must be configured to know
the location of the PayPal JAR
files, and your ColdFusion Markup (CFM) pages must be
configured with the absolute path to
the PayPal API certificate for the PayPal API user on whose
behalf the calls are made.
1. Install the PayPal Java SDK “Installing the
SDK”.
2. Copy a subset of the Java SDK JAR files to a location
accessible by the ColdFusion
application server. The JAR files are in SDK_root\lib and
their exact names are as
follows:
– bcmail-jdk14-128.jar
– bcprov-jdk14-128.jar
– paypal_base.jar
– paypal_stubs.jar
sax2.jar
– xerces.jar
– xpp3-1.1.3.4d_b4_min.jar
– xstream.jar-1.1.3.jar
3. With the ColdFusion Application Server Administrator, add
the absolute path of the
location you determined in Step 2 to the Java and JVM
CLASSPATH environment variable.
4. Restart the ColdFusion Application Server.
Suggest me how to include .jar files without setting
classpath.

How to include custom application.xml in JDev9i project

Can anybody explain to me how to include a custom application.xml file when deploying to an .ear file? I need to include application wide security roles, and I can't see where in Jev9i how to do this.
After searching this forum, I see that jdev9i can't include the orion-application.xml, but I want to include just the standard J2EE application.xml. Is this possible?
Thanks,
matt

The standard application.xml file unfortunately can't be customized in JDev 9.0.2. The reasons why this capability was left out of JDev 9.0.2 are same reasons why the other EAR-level XML files were excluded. The OTN thread
Re: Regarding 11i and E-business suite
has a summary of those reasons, which you've probably seen. We know this is an area in need of improvement and will be adding this functionality in the JDev 9.0.3 release. Until then, you'll have to go with a work-around like an Ant build file, batch file, Java application, or some other kind of script.
Below is a sample Java application which can be used to insert <security-role> elements into an EAR file's application.xml. Modify the main() method to customize for your purposes, and put xmlparserv2.jar on the classpath (in a JDev project, add the "Oracle XML Parser v2" library):

How to set the CLASSPATH in Unix Server

Hi, everyone~
Do anyone noe how to set the CLASSPATH in the hp-ux server? I tried the setenv CLASSPATH, but not working.. I think should use export. But my jsp pages still cannot working, dunnoe y?
I wonder is the hp-ux support jsp and servlet or not?
In order to let the jsp and servlet to run properly in the unix server, what kinds of steps should taken ?
Hope somemore who experience with this situation b4 can give me some guidance.. Thanks~~
regards,
tzeyik

Tomcat ignores any and all CLASSPATH environment variables. Even if you could figure out how to set it, Tomcat wouldn't use it.
Better to learn how Tomcat's CLASSPATH works and how to deploy Web apps properly. - MOD

How to change the classpath in rmiregistry

I am storing remote object stubs in an RMI registry as part of my application. When I try to bind my objects to the rmiregistry started by the kxs process on port 1099, I get class def not found errors because that rmiregistry does not have my classes in the classpath. My classes are in the iAS classpath because I added them through the registry.
When I start my own rmiregistry on a different port and set the classpath environment variable to include my classes, then I have no problems.
Does anyone know how to change the classpath for the rmiregistry started by the kxs process?
I am running iAS sp3 on Windows 2000 adn Solaris
Thanks,

How to include external files in JSP

hi,
How to include external files like image or javascript in to jsp pages.
I am using MVC frame work. So i have to use request dispatcher. While calling the pages trough dispatcher the external files are missing from the output. Also am using tomcat as server,web.xml(deployment descriptor ) is also configured.
regards
sree

When you use the request dispatcher, the relative path for all your ressources becomes the relative path of your calling serlvet and not the JSP/servlet that you call. Make sure to use the full relative path such as:
/PATH_TO_YOUR_DIRECTORY/myRessource.ext
NOT
SOME_DIRECTORY/myRessource.ext

How to include .jars?

Hello,
I have been unable to find out how to include in the .ear file generated by wsgen the supporting .jar files that my Web Service EJB needs.
I thought this could be done with the "classpath" parameter in the wsgen tag in build.xml, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Can someone please provide a hint?
Thanks,
Pere

Hi Pete,
You mentioned the <wsgen> Ant task, so I'm assuming that you're using WLS 6.1
An automated way to do this, is to include a series of <exec> Ant tasks after
the <wsgen> one. These <exec> Ant tasks would call the jar.exe and look something
like this:
<exec
dir="."
executable="jar.exe"
failonerror="yes"
>
<arg line="xvf ${APPLICATIONS}/MyWS.ear myEJB.jar"/>
</exec>
<delete dir="myEJB-jar"/>
<mkdir dir="myEJB-jar"/>
<exec
dir="myEJB-jar"
executable="jar.exe"
failonerror="yes"
>
<arg line="xvf myEJB.jar"/>
</exec>
<copy todir="myEJB-jar">
<fileset dir=".">
<include name="jar1-used-by-EJB.jar"/>
<include name="jar2-used-by-EJB.jar"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
<copy todir="myEJB-jar/META-INF">
<fileset dir=".">
<include name="MANIFEST.MF"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
<jar jarfile="myEJB.jar" basedir="myEJB-jar" />
<exec
dir="."
executable="jar.exe"
failonerror="yes"
>
<arg line="uvf ${APPLICATIONS}/MyWS.ear myEJB.jar"/>
</exec>
I realize this seems like a lot of steps, but they are at least automated :-)
Note that the contents of the MANIFEST.MF that you copy in must look like this:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Ant 1.4
Class-path: jar1-used-by-EJB.jar jar2-used-by-EJB.jar
in order for the EJBs to find the newly included .jar files.
