Works in Tomcat but not in iPlanet Web server

I have a servlet which first generates a form which has one input field, when user fills in the text field and submits the form it is posted to same servlet. The posted data is processed and redirected to another servlet. Everything works fine on Tomcat3.2 but fails to work on iPlanet web server and throws HTTP Error 500.
Can someone help me with this? What might be the problem?

Don't know whey it worked in Tomcat and not in iPlanet, but the reason is because I missed '/' in getRequestDispatcher() methoc
public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String path)
The pathname must begin with a "/" and is interpreted as relative to the current context root.

Tomcat 5.5, struts, AJAX - Works on localhost but not on online web-server

Hello,
I'm trying to add some functionality from Ajax to my client's web application. And I'm stuck on this problem for the past 4 days now.
To make a long story short, the application works perfectly on my localhost, but once I deploy it to the online server it pops a Page Not Found message (written in the JavaScript of Ajax engine). Though I have worked with servlets and struts a bit, I still consider myself very new.
Here are some specifications:
- The jar files are in tomcat-5.5/common/lib
- The servlets (compiled correctly) are in webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/javaClasses
- My web.xml and struts-config.xml are in WEB-INF, both of which I believe are configured correctly:
web.xml
=======
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<action path="/signup" type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction" parameter="/signup.jsp" />
<action path="/countries" type="javaClasses.GetCountries" />
</action-mappings>
</struts-config>
I noticed when I type "countries.do" on my localhost, the action is processed perfectly, however on the online server, it displays me the 404 error page.
I thought it wasn't seeing the struts-config.xml so I played around with the directory path struts-config.xml and replaced it with:
<param-value>/home/shaghig/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
but still no luck.
What is it that I am not doing right? Any input or guidance would be very much appreciated.

Have you resolved your problem? I am running into the SAME EXACT issues with my application. The only difference is I'm not deploying to webapps/ROOT/; I'm deploying to my own directory based on my WAR file name (webapps/<web_application_name>/WEB-INF....blah blah). If you figured out your problem (believe me, I wish I could be of some help) I would LOVE to hear what you did/figured out.

Berkeley Xml 2.4.13 works on Tomcat but not on Glassfish

I recently upgraded my web app to using the latest version of Berkeley Xml from 2.3. The old version worked fine on both glassfish and tomcat java servers.
When I upgraded and made the necessary modifications to my app I could not get it to work on glassfish but had no problems on tomcat.
This error happens in the beginning of start up when I call the XmlManager constructor. I am clueless as to what it is because I can not recreate it on anything else but glassfish v2. I even created a new project and played around with some options.
Here is part of the stack trace:
DB errno:0
The log message is null.
com.sleepycat.dbxml.XmlException: Uncaught exception from C++ API, errcode = INTERNAL_ERROR
at com.sleepycat.dbxml.dbxml_javaJNI.new_XmlManager(Native Method)
at com.sleepycat.dbxml.XmlManager.<init>(XmlManager.java:56)
For now I am going to just use tomcat, but I would really like to know what is going on for both peace of mind and because I like some of the features of glassfish.
Not sure if this matters but I am deploying the web app through netbeans 6 for both glassfish and tomcat.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't think it is a library path problem. The java.library.path shows the right values. I did have it working fine on the previous version of berkeley xml. I did have a version mismatch problem but I deleted the other database. I did have problems uninstalling the old database and I had to do it manually (the uninstall was hanging). Maybe I didn't clean it up correctly. My confusion is if I didn't clean it up correctly why does it work on everything else but glassfish.
Thanks for your help.

Session.invalidate works on tomcat but not in WebSphere Server

I'm trying to figure out a .jsp written by another developer in WS Studio.
The page does this:
session = request.getSession(false);
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(5);
then almost immediately, does this:
session.invalidate();
In Tomcat, I get the "session already invalidated" error message I would expect. However, In WS Server, the rest on the page loads, and I can continue to interact with the application. I'm using IE 6.0, sp2.
The "session.setMaxInactiveInterval(5);" call seems to have no effect in either container; al least, the application never times out.
The most important thing for my purposes is to be able to invalidate the session in websphere. How can I fix this? Thanks!

Rollover works in iWeb, but not in any web browser

I created pretty rollover links in iWeb '08 and when I mouse over them within iWeb, they light up like they're supposed to.
However, when I open the pages in any web browser (Mac or PC, Safari or Firefox), the links do not light up.
Any suggestions? I have already installed the latest update to iWeb.

Nevermind. I fixed it.

Transmitting with JMStudio works on LAN but not over the web!

I've been reading all kinds of posts related to this problem.. it was asked many times but noone has given the answer.
The transmitter has to put the receivers ip and some port.
The receiver has to open rtp session with the transmitter's ip and the same port.
On a LAN it works, but over the internet it doesn't (the receiver keeps "waiting for data").
The two computers I used for trying that, are on no LAN's.. they are assigned a unique ip by the isp (two simple broadband or dial-up connections with single computers).
Why doesn't it work?
(The ip's I used are (for example) the ones that appear in whatsmyipaddress.com and i'm behind no proxy)

.jsp works in ROOT but not separate web

I am very new to JSP but I am running the Java runtime on a Unix
          REDHAT machine and I am using Apache Tomcat. I have the $TOMCAT_HOME
          defined and the usual helloworld.jsp will run at
          $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/ROOT but not at my web which is
          $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/ralph. All I did was copy from one to the other.
          What else do I need to do to make this work?
          Thanks.
          Ralph Tillery


Interesting.
- Does the page look identical in each browser
though?Yes, the pages look identical in every other way.
- When you click a box to expand the tree does it load
a new page or is it handled through some client side
scripting like Javascript?No new page is loaded, a Javascript handles the "+" boxes.
- What versions of Netscape have you found it didn't
work?I've tried it out on v4.75 as well as v6.2, no success with either.
Someone else mentioned to me that it sounds like a Javascript problem. I've worked with Javascript for a couple of years now, but I've never seen these "+" boxes used before, so I'm in new territory as far as those are concerned. Thanks!

JDBC persistence of session data not working on iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition 6.0 SP2

I am using windows 2000.
iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition 6.0 SP2
I tried to do jdbc persistence for sessiondata.
Somehow it didn't work.
I edited the JdbcStore code and added some system.outs in it.
From the logs I could note that
It is going into
JdbcStore.init(Properties config)//when the server starts up
JdbcStore.reap(long currentTime) //when the server is brought down
But it is not going into
JdbcStore.save(IWSHttpSession session)
JdbcStore.remove(IWSHttpSession session)
JdbcStore.load(IWSHttpSession session)
I did a "select count(*) from sessions" and it got me
no of rows=0.
The logs contained
[06/Mar/2002:11:25:09] info ( 552): IWSSessionManager: Maximum number of sessions is 1000
[06/Mar/2002:11:25:10] info ( 552): IWSSessionManager: Maximum number of sessions is 1000
[06/Mar/2002:11:25:14] info ( 552): JdbcStore: initialized with url=jdbc:odbc:LocalServer, driver=sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
So I should think it was working.
The pages that are using HttpSession are working ok but should I not get some rows in my table "sessions" when I query?
This is the webapps.xml I used.

I'm trying to do the same thing with a file store, also somewhat unsuccessfully. However, one thing I can point out is that the manual says that the <session-manager> element should be within the <web-app> element in web-apps.xml. In your example, it is outside of it.

Lightbox works on computer but not on web...

Help!
I have used Lightbox2 and other lightboxes before, so I am a little used to how they work.
I wanted to not clutter my site any more than necessary, and so I left the Lightbox files in the original Lightbox2 folder; my files are outside the folder.
I corrected the links to the javascript and css files on my page.
The page previews correctly on my computer; but, when uploaded to the web, Lightbox2 does not work.
Why would Lightbox work correctly on my computer, but not on the web? Here is a link to one of the pages in question:
http://www.oldmanmountain.com/Pages/RackPages/RearRacks.html
Another question...Lightbox says we should check the links in the lightbox.js file to make sure the loading and close box links are correct. How do I point to these files? From the javascript file? or from the page file? I have tried everything and cannot get the close box to show on my computer (let alone on the web, where Lightbox doesn't seem to work at all).
Another reason for wanting the Lightbox files in their own folder is that I used to put the Lightbox files relative to the page that Lightbox was used on so I wouldn't have to change the links. I would rather have just one Lightbox folder for the entire site, and I would prefer to have it in its own folder. I posted this question on StackOverflow, but no one answered.
Thank you!

Hi,
in my IE8 your lightbox works (after a while of waiting) like this:
I only miss the both buttons: "closelabel.gif" and "loading.gif".

Flash player works on https web sites but not on http web sites ?

Flash player works on https web sites but not on http web sites ?
I've tryed a lot of things to solve this problem but impossible to find the solution.
- re-instal flash player
- disable the firewall (windows)
- disable the firewall and the antivirus (bitdefender)
I test my computer on an other internet provider and everything works correctly
I test an other computer on my internet connection and everything works correctly.
The problem comes from my computer on my internet connection.
I'll appreciate a solution.
Thank you.

This is what you should see under "plugins" in Opera:
Make sure Flash Player is listed and enabled.
It comes from the same place as the plug-in for Firefox, so one won't work if the other doesn't.
If that doesn't work, try a clean install. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4041846

Web sites containing mms links work in IE but not Firefox 4.0

Web sites containing mms links work in IE but not Firefox 4.0. when I play the video in IE, I go into IE, and locate the mms link under properties, when I right click. If I copy the mms link form IE directly into firefox, it will work. There ought to be a better way to do this. Also, I am using a hardware firewall, not a software firewall, and no proxy.

You need to use the file:// protocol, but you may still encounter problems if you fix that.

Madison Square Garden web site opens but when I click on view all concerts tab at the MSG site it does not open. It works with AOL but not Firefox

I go to '''www.thegarden.com''' I click on the tab '''View Full Calendar'''. It does not open. It works on AOL but not Firefox. And for some reason it also does not work when I use Internet Explorer. The majority of times when I click on that tab (in Firefox) it does not work. On a rare occasion it will open. I am not doing anything differently either time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
