can anyone help plz?
I am also facing the same problem. Try placing ur
class files in tomcat's /common/classes folder.
Sometimes it works. How ever it did not work in my
case. Hope it works in your!!This ain't a right way of doing it... when creating a web-app, the files should be contained in it.
The problem is can be resolved by packaging the class in say beans. Then place that class in WEB_INF/classes/beans.
Cheers!

Where to put the properties file
I am a new user of NetBeans6.0, I am making a simple application for user registration. I have coded everything but when I run project I get error caused by the dao.properties file load problem.
I have put the dao.properties file inside the classes directory(where all java class files are build after running the project) of my web application directory( I didn't create this directory though, it is automatically created by IDE), I think there is a problem with its path.
where should I put the dao.properties file so that when I run the project the Tomcat automatically find it and also, what the settings I should do?
actually, I have referred to BalusC'd DAO tutorial: the data layer but that comes in use when we are working off the IDEs, In my case since I am using Netbeans so it may be different from that one.
if someone already done that then please let me knowok, but will it work if I upload the project in a remote host?
lets talk besides IDE, as in your DAO tutorial you have instructed to put the properties file somewhere in root of the classpaths. ok, it will work on a local computer cause there is classpath setting but since remote host doesn't know about that property file and we cant set classpath at remote host(I am not sure though if we can) then how will it work at remote host.
how the server at remote host comes to know about that property file?
In my case since I have made the project using IDE and everything regarding classpaths have been set automatically(IDE done itself), but at remote host these sort of settings are not done then how the project will run?
if I have described my problem incorrectly then please consider it as it is supposed to be. -

How to put the ".class" file in Memory with Javac?
The J2SE 6 RC have an tool : javax.tools.JavaComplier. I can use it to compile the source code in memory( I implemented an JavaFileObject).
But the compiler aways put the output file(.class) to file system. It;s not my want to do . I am writing an IDE ,I use javac to determine the code error after the user's typing. So complier is used a lot , writing to file system is a time consuming job.
I also want to use the byte code(".class" file) for reflection , so if the JavaCompiler can put the output file in memory and then I can reflect it.
My current solution is puting the output file to file system then use Class.forName() to reload it in memory then reflect it. It seems a useless IO operation with file system.
How can I do with it?
Thanks!Those 'useless' I/O operations are one or two out of thousands that are implied by compiling a Java source file.
I wouldn't worry about it. -

If you wrap your code in [[b]code] it will be a whole lot easier to read for all of us.
Next put your class into a library path since you're going to use it in more than one project I guess.
Then simply import your class in the project you're currently working on and you can use it's methods. -
Servlet compilation - where to find the class files ?
Hi !
I am new to servlets and I have just downloaded Tomcat 4. I think that a servlet has to extend the HttpServlet class and throws a ServletException exception, right ? But where can I find these classes for Tomcat (I think that these don't ship with it !). I tryed to fix the problem by downloading these classes for JSDK but the Tomcat examples (which I could run) did not compile !...
It is perhaps a silly question, but could someone help me out ?
Thank youThere is a package called servlet 2.3 wich contains all the classe you need to create servlets, you can download it from

just go thru fortune sample it will give you the better Idea.
please get back to me if it you have any question.

For WebLogic 5.1, where should I put my class files for my JavaBeans?
With JBuilder4, I have built an application with JSP and a few Java Beans (Those JavaBeans are instantiated in those JSP files). There are no EJBs. The package name is called 'onlinetrade'. I have tested the application on JBuilder's web server, it works pretty well.
Now I am moving this application to WegLogic 5.1. I have encountered a problem with WebLogic 5.1
and do not know where I should place my JavaBean class files --
Originally, the JSP files for my application are in package path-- ..onlinetrade\jsp
and the class files for my beans are in the package path -- ..onlinetrade\jsp\bean\*.class
Now, with WebLogic 5.1,
1) I have put my JSP files in
C:\weblogic\myserver\public_html\onlinetrade\jsp
2) I have created subdirectory and put my bean class files in
C:\weblogic\myserver\classfiles\onlinetrade\jsp\bean
When I started weblogic and the first page - login.jsp page can be up and accessed. But when I login and forward to another JSP page called 'controller.jsp', where a bean is instantiated, I got the following error
Compilation of 'C:\weblogic\myserver\classfiles\jsp_servlet\_onlinetrade\_jsp\__controller.java' failed:
C:\weblogic\myserver\classfiles\jsp_servlet\_onlinetrade\_jsp\__controller.java:210: cannot access jsp_servlet._onlinetrade._jsp.registerBean
probably occurred due to an error in /onlinetrade/jsp/controller.jsp line 53:
registerBean registerBeanInstance = new registerBean();
I know the javac is working, and a java file is created upon the JSP page, but the problem is -- the bean class files cannot be found!!!
Where should I create the package path and put my bean class file so that my JSP pages can pick them up?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Where should I put the configuration file?
Hi
I'm developping a web application using IBM's websphere as my application server. My application reads configuration information from a properties file.
My question is: what's the right location to put the configuration file? Should I provide a fixed path, or should I just put in the webserver's execute directory?
Thanks in advance
PedroI'd consider what the configuration file is cheifly
tied to.
If there are only a small number of parameters then
put them into the web.xml as initial parameters and
access then via servlet cotext.
If they are tied to some class, then I'd put the
properties file next to the relevant class file and
use getClass().getResourceAsStream().
If they relate to the web-app as a whole, I'd put
them in the WEB-INF directory and access then using
getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("WEB-INF/xxx.p
roperties");The one thing you definitely shouldn't do is use an
absolute file path.Thanks for the reply.
Forgive my ignorance, but how can I access getServletContext from my web application?
Thanks again! -

Where do I put the .jar file for the database connection?
I am trying to connect to an Oracle 11g database. I see under the coldfusion settings summary that the java version is 1.7.0_55. So I downloaded the ojdbc7.jar file from Abode.com. Now the question is where do I put it so that coldfusion can access it?
Of course I need to set up the database connection (which I still don't have the connection string for), but I still need to know where to put the ojdbc.jar file.

The program has builtin defaults and temperature thresholds but users
can specify their own settings in configuration files
/etc/default/i8kmon and ~/.i8kmon. The daemon defines 4 states with
different fan speeds ({0 0}, {1 0}, {1 1}, {2 2}) and for each state
are defined the temperature thresholds which cause the switching to a
higher or lower state. Furthermore each state can have different
thresholds for operation on ac power or battery. For example the fol‐

I've put the following file in /etc/default/i8kmon:
# Run as daemon, override with --daemon option
set config(daemon) 0
# Automatic fan control, override with --auto option
set config(auto) 1
# Report status on stdout, override with --verbose option
set config(verbose) 1
# Status check timeout (seconds), override with --timeout option
set config(timeout) 1
# Temperature thresholds: {fan_speeds low_ac high_ac low_batt high_batt}

set config(1) {{-1 1} 50 70 50 70}
set config(3) {{-1 2} 70 128 70 128}
But it doesn't seem to do anything. I'm running a Dell Inspiron 3521 with no dedicated GPU, so it only has one fan. I was somehow able to get i8kmon to work in Ubuntu by putting this config in /etc/i8kmon, but can't get it to work in Arch. Putting it in /etc/i8kmon and /etc/default/i8kmon doesn't do anything. -
Where to put the GIF/JPG files so they show up in Forms Developer
Hi:
This refers to Forms 10gR2; Forms Builder running on Windows XP......
Where do I put the GIF and JPG files referenced by the "iconic filename" property so that they show up in Forms Builder? By placing them in the jar file, I can get them to appear at runtime, but NOT in development!
I have tried putting the files in the same directory as the FMB, as well as in C:\DevSuiteHome_10g\forms\java (where the image jar file resides).
In each case, I have included the path in the FORMS_PATH environment variables.
ThanksHi,
For design time, you need to use the UI_ICON and UI_ICON_EXTENSION environment variables. Set them in the registry.
UI_ICON=location where you have the image files.
UI_ICON_EXTENSION=Extension of your image files (ICO / GIF / JPG)
Edit :
Refer : http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/10g/frm10gnewfeatures.pdf
Search for UI_ICON and UI_ICON_EXTENSION
