Using url forwarding

Hello,
I am trying to purchase a domain name from godaddy.com and in the domain regsitration preferences, I must enter a minimum of 2 valid nameservers.
I want to use iweb with my .mac account and forward the url to the domain I am purchasing.
Am I understanding it correctly that my .mac account is hosting my site? If so, where do I find the nameservers so I can purchase my domain name? Or, do I want to park it at godaddy.com and just use the url forwarding?
I am a little confused,
Aaron

is there anyway of using my own url/web host instead
of .mac to host my site? i kinda got it to work last
night, but now my site only shows the directory of my
ftp.
Yes, here are some tips:
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/iwebserver.html
When you only see the directory, it means you failed to upload the index.html file which iWeb publishes alongside the folder which has the same name as your site does inside iWeb. You need to upload both these items (index.html and folder).

Can you use wildcards to do Url forwarding in Iplanet 4.1

For example, redirect http://myservername/cgi-bin/* to another Url. Where '*' equals any other text....thanks

Hi,
As my understand you are trying set the server to act as below.
You are enabled Url forwarding for
http://servername/cgi-bin/* "to" http://www.iplanet.com
In client browser if client hit
http://servernamet/cgi-bin/te it will through only
page not found message.
Because * wildcards is not equal to any other character.
What excatly you are trying to do, it will not work for any text(character).
So I would suggest, Instead of using URL forwarding.
Try it out setting with "Custom Error Responses"
it will help to through particular html page <OR> and particular content.
How to setup "Custom Error Responses" follow the below link.

I hope this may help.

Using a Forward Slash (/) in CFFILE Destination

Hi everyone,
I couldn't find this anywhere in the forums (at least not
searching for "cffile forward slash", "cffile /", or "cffile
destination") and hope I'm posting this in the correct place
(please let me know if not). I need to use a forward slash (/) in
the name of a file using cffile, but when I try to set destination
= "c:\directory\file/name.txt" cf throws an exception and tells me
that the system can't find the "c:\directory\file\" directory. Is
there a way to froce ColdFusion to interpret the forward slash as
part of the file name instead of a directory structure character?
By the way I'm using ColdFusion 6.1 Standard Edition on a Windows
box (obviously).

The above sounds right and seems to be generally correct in
practice (I'm testing by transferring files from OSX to Windows),
with the exception of the "/" character. It's possible that "/"
isn't, in fact, illegal to a *nix OS, but just isn't valid as a
file name in any applications (including those that ship wtih the
OS).
However, It's also possible (read: probable) that I have no
idea what I'm talking about. I'll see what I can find and post it
here, would be good to know as I'm sure others have run into this
(and I'm sure this won't be the last time I'm given a ridiculous
naming convention).

Problem using jsp:forward in java script

hi,
when I use jsp forward tag inside java script i'm getting a problem that
when the jsp is invoked it is getting forwarded to the page specified in the forward tag, without checking the if conditions. Following code may give you a better idea.
<html>
<script>
function test()
if(document.f.htemp.value=="true")
alert("jus");
else
var s=document.f.htemp.value;
alert(s);
<jsp:forward page="success.jsp" />
</script>
<body>
<form name="f" method=post>
<input type=text name=htemp value="true">
<input type=button onclick="test()">
</form>
</body>
</html>
please help me,thanks inadvance
regards
chandu

What pgeuens means is that you can't mix javascript and jsp/java code in this way.
ALL of the jsp/java code gets executed at the server end.
This produces an HTML page (with embedded javascript) which gets sent to the client.
The client then runs javascript code in response to events (onLoad, onClick, onChange etc etc)
So in this case, the jsp:forward will always be executed, because as far as the server is concerned, the javascript is just template text.
If you WANT to do a conditional forwarding on the server side you do it in java ie (horribly using scriptlet)
<%
if (testCondition){
%>
<jsp:forward>
%<
%>Or if you want to test what the client has entered client side, all you can do is submit the form, or navigate to a URL
<script>
function test()
if(document.f.htemp.value=="true")
alert("jus");
else
var s=document.f.htemp.value;
alert(s);
document.f1.action="success.jsp";
document.f.submit();
</script>You cannot run JSP code based on your javascript code.
Java. Javascript. Not the same thing.
Hope this helps,

Webmaster tools change of address 301 redirect failed using domain forward

I'm having trouble with webmaster tools recognising our domain name change.
We've recently updated website and done a name change from www.qldtshirt.com.au to www.qtco.com.au. I am using domain forwarding so qldtshirt.com.au forwards to qtco.com.au (aswell has with www.) and every thing works perfectly.
www.qldtshirt.com.au/products/polo-shirts/cool-dry-fabric forwards to:
http://www.qtco.com.au/products/clothing/polo-shirts/cool-dry-fabric
We have about 4000 301 redirects setup in URL Redirects:
/products/business-and-corporate/desk-and-office/100-organic-cotton-pencil-case to
/products/gifts-incentives/desk-and-office/100-organic-cotton-pencil-case
so on and so on....
I've verified all sites in webmaster tools however when change of address from www.qldtshirt.com.au to www.qtco.com.au webmaster tools presents this error:
"301 redirect failed. We detect that the root address of your old site (www.qldtshirt.com.au) does not yet redirect to the root address of your new site (www.qtco.com.au). For more information use the Fetch as Google tool."
It works perfectly fine for the end user, anyone know why and how to fix please?

Hi, I have found this same situation. Did you have any luck finding a solution?

Bug or feature in iWS 6.0 sp1 for URL forwarding?

running on Solaris 8 ...
I was having difficulty configuring URL forwarding for individuals
with iPlanet 6.0 SP1. I was finally able to get it working but had
to manually define the redirections. I believe this to be a bug
in the admin server.
Defining URL forwarding through the admin server defines a NameTrans
directive, in the obj.conf file, similar to this:
NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/testing" url="http://www.iplanet.com"
If you enable Public information directories, the following NameTrans
directive is defined:
NameTrans fn="unix-home" from="/~" subdir="public_html"
We had desired to configure rediction for a few users' home directories.
Using the Admin Server when the following occured:
NameTrans fn="unix-home" from="/~" subdir="public_html"
NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/~johnd" url="http://www.iplanet.com"
Since the "unix-home" parameter had been defined prior to the
"redirect" parameter, the redirection was ignored. The webserver
used our system password file to locate the home directory for
user 'johnd' and attempted to load the content in that directory,
affectively bi-passing the redirect parameter defined for this user.
I found that if the redirection for users' home directories was defined
prior to the "unix-home" parameter, the redirection would function as
would be expected:
NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/~johnd" url="http://www.iplanet.com"
NameTrans fn="unix-home" from="/~" subdir="public_html"
The above example could not be done through the admin server. I had
to manually define it in the obj.conf file and restart the web server. Is this a bug or a feature?

Jay Fowler wrote:
Is this a bug or a feature?I wouldn't call this a bug (defined as "does not work as designed"). I
would call this an unfortunate effect of the different Admin CGIs/JSPs.
The CGI/JSP that creates the normal redirects is apparantly not checking
for the existence of User Home Dirs and placing its redirects above them
in the obj.conf. You can define all you redirects via the Admin
interface, then manually move the
NameTrans fn="unix-home" from="/~" subdir="public_html"
line under the redirects you created. You'll have to do this any time
you define a redirect that is based off of "/~foo".

URL Forwarding

How can I redirect a web application's output from my local machine that is running the Java System Application Server (v. 9.1, bundled in Java EE 5 SDK) to a remote web server? The application server listens on localhost, port 2278 and displays pages OK in the local browser.
The remote web server is a shared host, not a dedicated host, so I don't have root directory access.
I've used Java Web Start to run self-signed applets on the remote server, but how can I get the remote server to display .JSP output from a servlet running on my local machine?
In the app server's Administration Console, I added a new HTTP-Listener assigned to the remote server's address (obtained by pinging), and also created a virtual server, but these changes caused the app server to crash.
Can configuration files for the web application or its domain be modified to accomplish URL Forwarding (redirection in Microsoft-speak)?
I'm on a Windows 2000 system with IIS (Internet Information Services) 5.0 as the default web server. I can create an IIS virtual directory to the deployed Java application module, and pages will display in the browser. I've tinkered with URL redirection settings in IIS and with the Windows 'hosts' file, but pages will not display on remote web server. The IIS virtual directory is pathed to the application's \domain1\applications\j2ee-modules\<context_root> directory.
Your suggestions for a fix or workaround will be greatly appreciated. There may be a straightforward best practice for distributing output from Sun Application Server to remote machine(s). Would it make more sense to co-locate the App Server with the web server on a dedicated remote host to which I'd have root access and the ability to start/stop/configure the app server?

URL forward to .Mac or FTP to other webhost for best d-name search results?

I'm boggled with ideas and suggestions, but can't see the wood for the trees! I have several .net.au (Australian) domain names in preparation for supporting my new business venture. I'm a .Mac member. At present I have url forwarding available for my domain names and can publish several sites to my .Mac account. I also can take out a webhosting plan with my domain name registration company, costing an extra $60-$80
I want the best hit results for my fledgeling personal business. For example I own sandplay.net.au and want people who type in "sandplay" say on a google search, here in Australia, to go to my website.
Recommendations from some of you iWeb 08 gurus would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Roddy,
There appears to be a lot to do to publish to .Mac. Will going through the process to publish to .Mac get better hit results than using an Australian webhost?
I forgot to mention that I already have CNamed my initial (very basic) family tree domain website. You can visit at www.anstock.org.
I have starter pages for my busines which are presently frame forwarded and are sites under anstock.org
Since they are linked to anstock.org, web forwarding goes to (say for sandplay.net.au) www.anstock.org/sandplay
Would I be able to keep the Cnamed anstock.org and web forward (without masking) or will that just complicate the suggested procedure. OR would it be simpler to just move to an Aussie webhost for my business sites?
Sorry, I think I've complicated the issue a bit. Told you I was lost. Looking forward to advice.

Family pack vs URL forwarding vs CNAME otherw

Yes, there are indeed many, many threads on all of these topics, but will someone here please spell out the differences here for me here in one spot? I'm sure many others here will be equally appreciative.
Problem- I have multiple domains I want to publish.
Presently- I have a single .MAC acct with a single personal domain assigned- www.domain1.com
Like most- I've created other sites in iWeb, all branching off of the first domain- www.domain1.com/domain2 etc..
Now once I've finished with lets say less than 5 sites, should I then-
1) keep the assigned URL's as listed above and forward/mask that domain address from the registar?
2) CNAME this URL... how is this different than forward/masking?
3)Would purchasing a family pac then give me 5 accts to which I can then assign those other personal domains individually?
Thanks
NEF

1. This is the easiest option to use web forwarding from your domain registrar, as you can only use CNAME once for every .Mac account.
2. The difference is how you see the url. With CNAME you get www.yourdomainname.com/sitename/pagename_html and this is for all pages. With masked web forwarding your pages with come up as www.yourdomainname.com for every single page of your site. With unmasked web forwarding your site will be re-directed but will show up as web.me.com/username/sitename/pagename_html for every page.
Using CNAME and web forwarding is mainly down to personal preference about what you want to see your url as.
3. Yes you can use CNAME for each of the accounts in the family pack.

How can I get URL forwarding working without touching the obj.conf

It won't work right after it is set up from the Admin server. I have to manually edit the obj.conf so that the [NameTrans fn="redirect"] lines are ahead of any other lines NameTrans lines. Why the Admin server cannot do this when adding the "redirect" lines to obj.conf, or did I miss anything when I config the URL forwarding?
SunOne WebServer6.1 SP4

This is a full copy of the obj.conf file, right after I set up a URL Forwarding. The URL Forwarding is added as the 3rd [NameTrans] line. I have to manually move it as the 1st [AuthTrans] line, else it won't work.

Sending email using URL and URLConnection

I have been having trouble trying to send an email using URL.
I have specified the mail host using: mailHost = Options.getProperty("mailHost", "mail.myisp.com");
and tried to send the email using this:
try
try
URL u = new URL("mailto:"+recipient);
URLConnection c = u.openConnection();
c.setDoInput(true);
c.setDoOutput(true);
c.connect();
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(c.getOutputStream()));
out.print("From:\"ME\" \n");
out.print("Subject: Stuff \n");
out.print("blah blah blah");
out.close();
catch etc. . .
I recieve the email with the subject line there, but the actual body of the email is empty. Anyone know what I have done wrong? This is part of a standalone application that was turned into an .exe with jbuilder9.

That worked, thanks!
Out of curious, why the surprise that it worked?
Its not that bad is it?Yeah, I didn't know that mailto: support was there either, is all. The blank line thing is just common in HTTP and sendmail so, I figured that would be the solution.
I don't know that it's bad... if it works. Generally, the JavaMail APIs are a more robust way of sending mail, but if mailto: URLs work, and it's simple mail, then I see no reason not to use it.

PROBLEM while using URL in order to open a file from a servlet

Hi,
I am having a problem while trying to open a file from my servlet by using URL connection. Following is my code sample. what happens is when I first run my project it opens the file but after that when I rerun it again and again it sometimes opens it and sometimes not. if it can't open it it gives an error saying "the file is damaged and couldn't be repaired". I don't get any exceptions. if you guys can help me I will appreciate it so much... thanks.
here is my code :
URL url = new URL("http://demobcs.ibm.com:81/test.pdf");
resp.setContentType(getContentType("http://demobcs.ibm.com:81/test.pdf"));
          ServletOutputStream sos = null;
          BufferedInputStream bis = null;
          try {
               sos = resp.getOutputStream();
          } catch (Exception e) {
               System.out.println("exception !!!!");
               e.printStackTrace();
          System.out.println("burada2");
          try {
               byte[] bytes = new byte[4096];
               //bis = new BufferedInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
               DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(url.openStream());
               //DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
               bis = new BufferedInputStream(in);
               int j;
               while ((j = bis.read(bytes, 0, 4096)) != -1) {
                    try {
                         sos.write(bytes, 0, 4096);
                         System.out.println("file is being read ...:");
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                         e.printStackTrace();
               in.close();
               bis.close();
               //sos.close();
          } catch (Exception e) {
               System.out.println("exception :"+e.toString());
               e.printStackTrace();
          }

You are writing (<filesize> mod 4096) bytes of crap at the end of the file. Use your variable j instead for the number of bytes to write in your loop.
