Web.xml help

hello people, i seem to have a hard time finding a listing of what you can put in the web.xml file. Is this a sun governed thing or can any application server create a layout as to there choosing? as an example i use tomcat for personal use but am trying to figure out websphere 5.1 for work.
can someone point me in the proper direction to look up these specs. i'm tired of trying to find this stuff on ibms site.
thanks in advance, graeme.

Well the DTD is available here: http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd
It specifies the content and ordering of the standard web.xml.
Order DOES matter
<!ELEMENT web-app (icon?, display-name?, description?, distributable?,
context-param*, filter*, filter-mapping*, listener*, servlet*,
servlet-mapping*, session-config?, mime-mapping*, welcome-file-list?,
error-page*, taglib*, resource-env-ref*, resource-ref*, security-constraint*,
login-config?, security-role*, env-entry*, ejb-ref*, ejb-local-ref*)>

Weblogic refuses my web.xml - help ! ! !

          Hi all,
          I'm trying to deploy on weblogic a war file that
          I'm built with Tomcat. I get a parse exception when

you package it all into a WAR file (zip/jar format)
          read about it in the spec
          http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html#specs
          the format is
          --WEB-INF
          web.xml
          -----classes
          -----lib
          or take a look at some sample war files

SessionListener and web.xml help

Hello everyone.
I'm having trouble getting a sessionListener to work in a tomcat3.1 environment.
Everything works okay in my win2k developer setup.
Here's the web.xml file I am using:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN' 'http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd'>
<web-app>
<display-name>slp</display-name>
<description> sessionlistener problem </description>
<listener>
<listener-class>headrunner.listeners.HRSessionListener</listener-class>
</listener>
<context-param>
<param-name>test value</param-name>
<param-value>hello</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>test value2</param-name>
<param-value>hello</param-value>
</context-param>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>hr/servlet-name>
<display-name>hr</display-name>
<servlet-class>hr</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>
</web-app>
Could it be that the sessionlistener is inside a package?, or the order of the components in the web.xml ?
Has anyone got a working web.xml file with the setup of a session-listener?
Thanks in advance for any feedback

The SessionListener interface is part of the 2.3 Servlet API. I may be wrong, but I believe Tomcat 4+ is required to run the 2.3 API.

          <description>list of administrators</description>
          <role-name>admin</role-name>
     </security-role>
     The problem is: I login with an admin account (inside the /admin/ dir) but i cant login into /profile/ with neither a user or administrator account. Any ideas?

i'm guessing it can't be done?

Success_URL in web.xml not working - Need help

Hi:
I developed my whole application in Jdeveloper 10.1.3.2 and all the security are done through custom module. Everything is working fine except one of the part that is success_url in web.xml.
1. There are total 10 pages in my application independent of each other.
2. I configured the custom login procedure and it is working fine.
3. From Jdeveloper if I run any page (i.e. one of 10 pages) it is prompting me to login and after login it is redirecting to the page I ran.
My issue is that after the login is completed as in step 3, I want the page to be redirected to predefined page called UserResp.jspx. I don't want to redirect to the page from where the login page was called. As per the notes in the ADF document, I configured the success_url in the adfAuthentication servlet as below. But after login it is not redirecting to the success_url but it is redirecting to the page from where the login was prompted.
Do I need to perform any other step for this success_url to work. Could you please guide.
Below is the details of my web.xml.

Hi All:
Thanks for all your help regarding the adfAuthentication success_url. Now I am able to configure to make this work. But now I am facing another issue i.e. I am getting 401 Not authorized message when the success_url is pointed to the jspx page.
Note: I am using custom login module similar to DBProcOraDataSourceLoginModule so my roles are stored in the custom Role class. So I am not sure how to pass this role info to the security in ADF in order to authorize the page to be viewed.
Could you please help and can you point me to any specific link.
Thanks & Regards

In addittion to following the steps as indicated by the above URL, make the context entries in the
app_root/META-INF/context.xml file .
As I encountered lots of probelms in settingup the JNDI datasource via server.xml or web.xml file
To be precise , do follwoing:
1. Make META-INF directory and add context.xml file to include following:
<Context path="/app_name" docBase="app_name"
debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="Test_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
<Resource name="jdbc/yourDB"
auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>
<ResourceParams name="jdbc/yourDB">
<parameter>
<name>factory</name>
<value>org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory</value>
</parameter>

<parameter>
<name>maxActive</name>
<value>100</value>
</parameter>

<parameter>
<name>maxIdle</name>
<value>30</value>
</parameter>

<parameter>
<name>maxWait</name>
<value>10000</value>
</parameter>

<parameter>
<name>username</name>
<value>dbuser</value>
</parameter>
<parameter>

</parameter>

<parameter>
<name>url</name>
<value>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/yourDB?autoReconnect=true</value>
</parameter>
</ResourceParams>
</Context>
2. In the web.xml include following:
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">

Help with web.xml and deploying a servlet

Hello,
I've been tearing me hair out for the last few hours trying to get this to work... I've got a servlet org.fatbaob.servtest.Servtest that I want to deploy with Tomcat 4.0.4. It doesn't seem to mater what I put in the web.xml file I'm always getting 404 errors.
The servlet is contained in a file c:\development\projects\servtest\WEB_INF\classes\org\fatboab\servtest\Servtest
which mapped with a <context> tag in the Tomcat conf\server.xml file:

Help with web.xml under WL5.1sp3

Hello,
I just started to explore Weblogic Server 5.1sp3 as part
of setting it up for the JASIG uPortal project here at UBC.
I'm unable to get web.xml to work for me. I've created the
file, I know WL is seeing it and parsing it (through various
typos during the installation process) but when my index.jsp page
runs, getInitParameter() comes back with nothing.
Any ideas what I could be missing?
Thanks

Help on web.xml file, what if the parameters contains key words ?

Hi:
I am just wondering what should I do if I want to include key words suchs
as <param> in web.xml file for a servlet config.
Example:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>testServlet</servlet-name>
<parameter>
<param-name>some name</param-name>
<param-value>some value</param-value>
</parameter>
</servlet>
What should I do if I want to repleace 'some value' with '</param-value>some
value' and still to prevent the engine to terminate parsing the param-value
at the fake ending? Is there a standard way in XML to distanguish that?
(in URL format it can be replaced %xx for some chars).
ie,
<param-value> </param-value>some value</param-value>
where the second </param-value> is the real ending.
Thank you!
Gang

Hi!
You can use "& lt ;" and "& gt ;" xml entities for that. Or wrap text element in <![CDATA[...]]> section.

Ignat.

Web.xml not working? help!

Hi, I am able de deply correctly on tomcat, but on jboss 4 I have this problem:
When I run my servlet from the browser it says that the resource is not avaible, without any exceptions on the console, it means that couldnt find the servlet to display. But the web.xml is inside the WEB-INF folder and is correctly done, I have reviewed and remaked it several times.
Any idea of the problem, I am using windows XP.

No, the port is okay, because in fact jboss is running, but the servlet is not loaded the mesasge on the web page is a message of the jboss. About the code give some time to post it.

Help! web.xml security without using WAR files

I'm currently using the RDBMSRealm and URL ACL security for my app. I would like to use the web.xml descriptor for security so that I can specify login pages and such. We currently are not using WAR files. I've been having alot of trouble setting this up. Is there a way to use the RDBMS realm along with the web.xml security? It looks like it should work, but I can't seem to get it to function. How do I specify the regular document root as a webapp? I'm currently running WLS 5.1 with SP4. Thanks.

The RDBMSRealm is just the authentication mechanism underneath WLS versus the
web.xml of the WebApplication which describes all the access control for that WebApp.
the later being scoped only to that WebApp.
you don't need to deploy in a war file, you can expand the archive into an identical
directory structure and then just point us towards the top level of that structure.
