Websphere is not loading new properties file

I am using Websphere Application Server 5.1 on WindowsXP.
My application is on Struts. I create a war file and deploy it.
I am getting all the text displayed from ApplicationResources.properites file.
I changed some key-values in that file..but the websphere is loading the page with old values..
I thought the problem could be with browser cache..I changed the JSP content to check if it loads the new jsp..It is loading the new jsp..(so the problem is not with cache)but old properties file..
I uninstalled my application and reinstalled it..stilll it did not work..
I checked the path "C:\Program Files\WebSphere\AppServer\installedApps\PC560\WMOS_war.ear\WMOS.war\WEB-INF\classes" where my war is getting extracted...
(so my latest propeties file is available to websphere)
it is showing the new properties file..but if i see the 'view source' of the page..it is showing old values..
Is it some kind of optimization of websphere? If it is so, where to change it?
Thanks

If that doesn't work, try repackaging your application into a new WAR file, with the new property files, and redeploy it. WebSphere tries to be "clever" and caches/copies files from your application into another folder when you deploy it, and will not look at these files in your application's folder within the "installedApps" folder. I learned this lesson the hard way, when I wasted days trying to understand why WebSphere wasn't recognizing changes made to my web.xml file.

How to load a properties file?

Hello Everyone,
We are experiencing difficulties when trying to load a properties file from a directory other then the one where the servlet is located. We are using the following code for this purpose:
private final String PROP_FILE_NAME = "my.properties";
Properties props = new Properties();
try {
props.load(getClass().getResourceAsStream(codeBase + PROP_FILE_NAME));
} catch(IOException e) {
//handle error ...
where codeBase is either physical directory path to the properties file or the URL. In either case we get a NullPointer exception which means that file is not found. But when we copy the properties file into the same directory where the servlet resides, everything works fine.
Does anybody have an idea as to how to resolve our problem?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Y.M.

URLs try to address this issue for cross-platform file reference.
I'd try doing something like:
URL u = new URL(codeBase + PROP_FILE_NAME);
props.load(getClass().getResourceAsStream(u));

Eric

How to load a .properties file by giving relative path in a JSP file.

Hey guys,
I'm trying to load a .properties file in a JSP using relative path...
It is not taking the properties file..
What is the problem...?
Any solution..?
Thanks a lot.

Yes I tried that also.
Your path was something like this ?
http://localhost:8080/Database/a.properties ?
Whether this path will change after client installation ? if no then what's the problem ?
For client side installation how you are going to set your conf directory for your application ?
You are not going to give client installation page ?which will have all the values to be set like conf path. database,user name(s),log folder,temp folder etc ? Why you are keeping everything on server ?
Check if this is useful,
String context = request.getContextPath();
String rmtAdd = request.getRemoteAddr();
String host = request.getRemoteHost();
out.println("http://"+rmtAdd+context+"<BR>");
out.println("http://"+host+context);
"http://"+rmtAdd+context

How do I load a properties file that is in the same package?

I have the following package:
com.company.ldap
In the package I have:
main.java
settings.properties
I want to load the values in the settings.properties file in code, such as:
propertiesFile = "settings.properties";
        try {
            properties.load(new FileInputStream(new File(propertiesFile)));
        } catch (IOException e) {
            ... error logging logic ...
        }I keep returning "The system cannot find the file specified".
How do I properly load a properties file in a class file within the same package?
Thanks,
--Todd

Put the file in the classpath (such as in the parent directory of com/company/ldap). Then obtain an input stream to that file like this:
InputStream stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/settings.properties");
Then use that stream in the properties.load method. Remember to close the stream as well.

Multiple "slapd[46]: could not load the replica file" Errors

Hi,
We've got an OD master (10.4.8) that sporadically falls into a state where it reports the error "slapd[46]: could not load the replica file." many times over in the system log. It will start this with no warning and when everything is running just fine, but once it has started there errors build up until it is reporting them up to 20 times a second. Usually once it gets to this stage directory services start to suffer badly across the network and all connected servers. We usually have to reboot various servers at this point including the ODM in order to get services up and running again. After the reboots sometimes the problem will just disappear, sometimes it will just start building up again.
We only have one other replica (down from 4) which is on a separate subnet across a WAN. We managed to get rid of the problem for a while by getting rid of the replicas on the local subnet, but it just pops back up again for no apparent reason.
We attempted to install a new ODM with a brand spanking PW server a while ago and new replicas, but hit the same issue sometime into the install.
The only time I've ever seen an issue with this many errors being reported so often it turned out to be a network loop, but I know there is not one present now. I did wonder about a rogue device on the network causing issues but I'm not fixed on this.
Can anyone give me any ideas where to start looking for a resolution?
Cheers
Dan

Step 1: Download subinacl.msi from the link
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=23418 and install it.
Step 2: Download my modified version of reset.cmd from
http://gerger.com/o/assets/x/?id=22540 and save the file in 'C:\Program
Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools'.
Step 3: Open Command Prompt as Administrator and type the following without
quotes (hit Enter):
'cd c:\program files\windows resource kits\tools'
Step 4: Now type 'reset.cmd' and hit Enter (without quotes)
You will see the Command Line Tool running for some seconds. The issue
should have been fixed and Quicktime should run again.
Enjoy!

I18n JSTL / How to connect to new JAR holding new properties file?

Hi there
This is concering i18n and how (on earth;) JSTL knows where to find the according properties files that hold all the textual information.
Okay. I have a piece of software that works fine and has the i18n mechanism running very nicely.
I found the properties files in WEB-INF/lib/i18n.jar in a folder 'resources/bundle/'. They all prefix 'i18n' so JSTL makes use of them like this:
     <fmt:bundle basename="resources/bundles/i18n">
          <fmt:message var="thumbnailText" key="thumbnail.label" />
So, we work on a new project right now based on this software. How can I add new project-related properties files?
What I did:
1) I created a new properties files having new textual information on new labels, etc.
2) Put this in a folder of the new project JAR, which is in WEB-INF/lib now.
3) Referenced the basename of fm:bundle according to this folder (including correct file prefix).
-> Doesn't work.
Is it that by convention all i18n information will be searched for in a JAR that must be named 'i18n.jar'?
I'd greatly appreciate any hints
Cheers
André

First, a sidenote to the SUN team: Before beeing able to reply, the forum denied me access unless I comitted to a screen name. Using my 'AndreKuhn' screen name got me 'Already in use'. Yes, of course. By me! So I had to pick AndreKuhn2 which is a little annoying. There seems to be something wrong with your system.
Okay, back to the issue.
Thanks evnafets for your notions! I have 2 JARs having i18n information. One had already been in use (successfully) by the underlying system. It's the one mentioned above ('i18n.jar'). Now there is a second one. Actually used the same way (technically) with different folders and namings. It goes like this:
<fmt:bundle basename="resources/i18n/bdficp">
          <fmt:message var="titleText" key="publishLink.config.title" />
With additional i18n information in 'WEB-INF/lib/<PROJECT-NAME>.jar'. Precisely in a file 'resources\i18n\bdficp_de.properties' having the line:
publishLink.config.title=Just\ another\ title.
Which should be the one referenced in the snippet above. Still the app gives me: ???publishLink.config.title???
Any clue? I'd greatly praise your name across the rooms here!
Cheers

Could not load assembly or file "crystaldecisions.windows.forms"

Hi,
I have a VS2005 C# .net application which works fine when I run on the programming machine.
Now , I copy all files (dll , pdb , exe) from the Project's "..bin\Debug " directory .
These files I transfer to another computer which does not have VS 2005 .NET installed (or any separate crystal reports program), but it does have .netframework 1 and 2, so that I can test the application on that "test" computer.
When I double click the .exe , I log in and then I click a menu item which shows a form which has a crystalreport viewer in it.Here , an unhandled excepion error is shown like this...
Could not load assembly or file "crystaldecisions.windows.forms" version 10.2.3600.0
Note please: I have not created an installer(.msi) package for our application yet.
The application does not refer to any crystal reports dlls in it's directory
Thanks -

Hello Dimitar,
If Crystal Reports is not properly integrated into your VS IDE you'll usually see that kind of message.
You have to make sure that Crystal Reports is properly integrated into Visual Studios. Do you have a full version of Crystal Reports installed on your Visual Studios .NET 2005 development machine? If so, what is the version of Crystal Reports? Open Crystal Reports, go to the Help menu, and then About Crystal Reports. What is the version number and name (listed near the top)?
Now open Visual Studios and go to Help > About VS. In the list of Installed Products what does it say for Crystal (usually near the bottom of the list). Please DO NOT include your keycode - just what it says for Crystal.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

If you aren't getting the reset link on the Password & Security section of your account then you don't have a rescue email address (an alternate email address is different), and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions - you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form to contact Support : https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then add a rescue email address for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses

Premiere Pro CS6 not loading/linking preview files - any suggestions?

MacPro 2010, 16-core, 2.66 GHz, 32GB RAM, Quadro 4000, OS X 10.7.4
When I save a Project and then reopen it, Premiere Pro CS 6.01 does not load the Preview Files from the Renders. I have checked the specified Preview Files location and the files are there.
In order to work, I must render the entire Project again - which is too time-consuming and counter-productive.
Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Same problem. I've done many projects in CS6 and this is the first time it's happened. FIrst half of the timeline was fine but the second half of the timeline, that was previously fully rendered, couldn't locate the preveiw files. The preview files are still in the preview folder but it doesn't see them in the timeline anymore. How do you delete those preview files since they are no longer recognized in the timeline? I know you can manually delete them in the preview folder by playing them and matching them to the video clips in the timeline.

How to load a Properties file : Very URGENT

I have properties file ie., SQLProperties.properties
SQLProperties.properties
logdetails = SELECT USERNAME AND PASSWORD FROM USER_TBL
I want to load this file .
I used like this
public static Properties prop = null;
strKey ="logdetails";
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("SQLProperties.properties");
prop.load(fis);    // Since load parameter is file input stream
prop.getProperty(strKey);But it is coming error while loading

You did not initialize prop.
//public static Properties prop = null;
public static Properties prop = new Properties ();
strKey ="logdetails";
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("SQLProperties.properties");
prop.load(fis);    // Since load parameter is file input stream
prop.getProperty(strKey);
