This is a log of my installation/Compilation of Apache DSO with SSL, MM, and Tomcat 3.1 stable (source distribution), JSERV 1.1.1 on Solaris SunOS 5.7Extra, extra!!!The stuff here gets obsolete quite fast... I am busy with some other things right now and the tomcat 3.2 has to wait... Some people offer help. I am adding these comments here as I get them. I only post the meat here and cut other comments... Thanks... ================================================================== Date: Thu, 05 Oct 2000 15:45:24 -0400 From: west suhanic ================================================================== Date: Tue, 03 Oct 2000 18:21:16 -0700 From: Marcia Perry <mperry@lbl.gov> To: jkl@ccl.net Subject: Thanks for helping w/ tomcat build QUESTION: When building tomcat (v3.1) for apache (v1.3.12) under Solaris 2.7, I do this (per the Tomcat documentation in the Tomcat distribution package and from the jakarta.apache.org website): > cd $TOMCAT_SRC_DIRECTORY/src/native/apache/jserv > $APACHE_HOME/bin/apxs -c *.c -o mod_jserv.so I get this output (with a real path listed instead of $APACHE_INSTALL_DIR): gcc -DSOLARIS2=270 -DUSE_EXPAT -I../lib/expat-lite -DNO_DL_NEEDED \ -I<$APACHE_INSTALL_DIR>/include -c autochange.c gcc -DSOLARIS2=270 -DUSE_EXPAT -I../lib/expat-lite -DNO_DL_NEEDED \ -I<$APACHE_INSTALL_DIR>/include -c ajpv11.c : : gcc -DSOLARIS2=270 -DUSE_EXPAT -I../lib/expat-lite -DNO_DL_NEEDED \ -I<$APACHE_INSTALL_DIR>/include -c mod_jserv.c -o autochange.so mod_jserv.o jserv_wrapper_win.o \ jserv_wrapper_unix.o jserv_watchdog.o jserv_utils.o jserv_status.o \ jserv_protocols.o jserv_mmap.o jserv_image.o jserv_balance.o \ jserv_ajpv12.o jserv_ajpv11.o autochange.o apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=16711680 Attempting to explicitly change the options to gcc to build and link mod_serv.so by doing this: > gcc -fpic -SHARED_MODULE -I<$APACHE_SRC_DIR>/src/include \ -I<$APACHE_SRC_DIR>/src/os/unix -c mod_jserv.c > ld -shared -o mod_jserv.so mod_jserv.o Gives error: ld: fatal: option -h and building a dynamic executable are incompatible ld: fatal: Flags processing errors What should I do? ANSWER: Your question implies you read the Tomcat docs, but also read the INSTALL file in the toplevel directory of the Apache source distribution, especially the sections that describe '--enable-shared', '--enable-rule' and '--enable-module'. Also read "Apache 1.3 Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) Support" (either from the Apache website or from htdocs/manual/dso.html that is included in the Apache source distribution). To successfully build mod_jserv.so, do the following (following the instructions in the 'installation/Compilation of Apache DSO...' document available by clicking on the "New" link at http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/apache/): 1). Rebuild Apache to get an apxs script that works for building *.so files: > cd $APACHE_SRC_DIR > ./configure --prefix=<APACHE_INSTALL_PATH> \ --enable-module=so --enable-rule=SHARED_CORE \ --enable-module=most --enable-shared=max > make > make install 2). Run 'httpd -l' from the bin subdirectory of the APACHE_INSTALL_PATH. You'll see that the only compiled-in modules are http_core.c and mod_so.c. You'll also see a lot of *.so files in $APACHE_INSTALL_PATH/ libexec. The 'apxs' in $APACHE_INSTALL_PATH/bin will work properly for mod_jserv.so. 3). If you want all of the Apache modules to be DSOs, add the necessary LoadModule entries in httpd.conf. OR If you really want your 'old' Apache binary (httpd) which probably has a bunch of compiled-in modules, but won't let .so's get built, go ahead and rebuild Apache, but BE SURE TO COPY THIS 'apxs' script somewhere (putting it with the Tomcat jserv src is good idea). 4). Build mod_jserv.so as follows: > cd $TOMCAT_SRC_DIR/src/native/apache/jserv > apxs -c *.c -o mod_jserv.so > ld -G autochange.so mod_jserv.o jserv_wrapper_win.o \ jserv_wrapper_unix.o jserv_wrapper.o jserv_watchdog.o \ jserv_utils.o jserv_status.o jserv_protocols.o \ jserv_mmap.o jserv_image.o jserv_balance.o \ jserv_ajpv12.o jserv_ajpv11.o autochange.o \ -o mod_jserv.so > cp mod_jserv.so $APACHE_INSTALL_DIR/libexec ================================================================== Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2000 12:35:07 +0100 (BST) From: Antony Riley <antony@internation.co.uk> To: jkl@ccl.net Subject: Apache + mod_ssl/openssl + tomcat ........ I've noticed a few features/bugs... (a) mod_jserv doesn't pass the scheme when ssl is used, this causes a problem when you use response.sendRedirect(), as if you don't specify the scheme (https or http or whatever) most browsers seem to assume the scheme should be http, and try to use http to connect to port 443. (you are supposed to use a fully qualified url for send redirect anyway). If you pull the scheme from the request it's always http. We've just fixed this by guessing the scheme from the port number (this is passed via mod_jserv) From looking at the code it looks like the scheme isn't passed via Ajp12. (b) The performance on a sparc of openssl on a sparc appears to be appauling. (I compiled it with gcc instead of the cc that comes with solaris) When you do make test it says the server time for openssl is ~0.6 seconds for 10 handshakes, compared with ~0.2 seconds on a pentium 500 (or there abouts). (this was on a 4*ultrasparc 400, though it didn't appear to be using more than one processor) I was wondering if you knew of anyway of compiling something to use multiple processors, or even if apache has optimizations for multiple processors. -Antony ............. ================================================================== Since some versions of software which I use in this installation are no longer available at original places, I am including them here. Of course, I can only include the ones which I am allowed to redistribute. I do it not because I think that you should use them, but because this description refers to these, and only these versions. Using some other versions may require some modifications in the installation procedure. You should, however, always try to use the latest versions, and I would be glad if you could send me the updates to this file. The original tar/zip balls of 3.1 Tomcat are in http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src/. You can also grab my copies here:

The Tomcat implements the newer Servlet Specification (2.2) while the JServ implements the older 2.0 Servlet Spec. I personally consider Tomcat still experimental, while the JServ is a solid, production quality servlet container by older. Before, when I wanted to do development in Tomcat and run production service on the same machine, I had to run two independent Apache servers: one for JServ, and one for Tomcat. This solution allows you to serve your existing Web Site in JServ, and do development in Tomcat ON THE SAME MACHINE USING ONLY ONE COPY OF APACHE WEBSERVER. ================================================================== Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2000 18:43:54 -0400 From: Noel Haydt <Noel@remcoserv.com> To: "'jkl@ccl.net'" <jkl@ccl.net> Subject: Tomcat / SSL Jan : ...cut... I have been working on getting Tomcat & SSL to work together for a while now. Your paper allowed me to put together the pieces I needed to finish it of properly. ...cut... The developers and apache seem to be always outdated when it comes to documentation. They've changed things already and your paper is also outdated. Before you build Tomcat you must do the following. Download XML 1.0.1 packages from java.sun.com/xml Install it and add the following to your .profile XML=/usr/jaxp1.0.1;export XML CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar:$JAVA_HOME/lib/dt.jar:$XML/jaxp.jar:$ XML/parser.jar:;export CLASSPATH ...cut...================================================================== Original starts here ================================================================== This is a log of my installation/Compilation of Apache DSO with SSL, MM, and Tomcat 3.1 stable (source distribution), JSERV 1.1.1 on Solaris SunOS heechee 5.7 Generic_106541-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-250 Apache -- the Web Server DSO -- Dynamic Shared Object (additional modules can be added/updated to Apache without the need to recompile the whole thing, similar to shared libraries, but DSO modules are not only called, but can call routines within Apache) JServ -- the Servlet container which is very well tested and tried which uses the older Java Servlet Spec 2.0. It is still the more popular servlet container for production sites. MM -- memory management or something like that - and add on to Apache and its modules to communicate via shared memory rather than files (faster). SSL -- Secure Socket Layer - the encryption and certificate package which works with Apache Tomcat -- the Java Server Pages (JSP) and Servlet container which uses the latest Java Servlets spec 2.2, and the latest JSP spec 1.1. It is still being actively developed and has some "features". You may want to read my FAQ on Tomcat 3.1 beta 1. since it will be easier to follow this installation log. It is available at: http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/apache/tomcat3.1b1-faq.html This stuff if based on INSTALL file which comes with mod_ssl and on the http://www.servlets.com/soapbox/techtips/ December 8, 1999 "Install instructions for Apache 1.3.9 with Tomcat 3.0" by Jason Hunter. If you are outside US, please look into INSTALL which comes with mod_ssl, since you do not need RSAREF and can use more robust code [your 8) and apache configure will be different]. I use GNU tar. It may be called gtar on your machine. If you do not have it, try to do: gunzup some.tar.gz tar xvf some.tar rather than tar zxvf some.tar.gz 1) Be a root... Run ksh or other sh, but not C-shell. 2) Installed Java 1.3 under Solaris a) went to www.javasoft.com b) clicked on Products and API on the left bar c) at the middle of the page under COMPLETE PRODUCT LIST retrieved JDK at "JavaTM 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v 1.3" d) used j2sdk1_3_0beta-solsparc.bin 24932252 j2sdk1_3_0beta-solsparc.bin and saved it in /tmp e) created a directory /usr/local/java3 and unpacked archive chmod 755 /tmp/j2sdk1_3_0beta-solsparc.bin mkdir /usr/local/java3 cd /usr/local/java3 /tmp/j2sdk1_3_0beta-solsparc.bin f) this created directory /usr/local/java3/j2sdk1_3_0beta mv /usr/local/java3/j2sdk1_3_0beta /usr/local/j2sdk1_3_0beta cd /usr/local ln -s /usr/local/j2sdk1_3_0beta jdk1.3 3) Installed Java Servlet Development Kit 2.0 Get the JSDK2.0 -- It is hidden someplace in the www.javasoft.com since they are pushing the new stuff. Go to: http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html Go to the very bottom of the page and select platfom for Java Servlet Development Kit 2.0 (Unix) and click continue. Then [ACCEPT] terms. Pick up HTTP download (or FTP -- which is usually faster) and you will retrieve a file jsdk20-solaris2-sparc.tar.Z = 318,426 bytes. It is not really Solaris package file. It will work on any UNIX since it is Pure Java. Unpack this file in /usr/local, i.e., cd /usr/local gtar Zxvf /path/where/you/have/it/jsdk20-solaris2-sparc.tar.Z This will create directory /usr/local/JSDK2.0. 4) Set your environment variables for Java (I am assuming you use some Bourne shell lookalike -- ksh or sh. JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.3 export JAVA_HOME JSDK_HOME=/usr/local/JSDK2.0 export JSDK_HOME PATH=/usr/local/bin:${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${JSDK_HOME}/bin:/${PATH} export PATH CLASSPATH=${JAVA_HOME}/lib/tools.jar:${JAVA_HOME}/lib/dt.jar:${JSDK_HOME}/lib export CLASSPATH 5) Make top directory for Tomcat installation. I did /usr/local/apache_t3.1 All presentation below assumes that. If you do some other, you need to remember when you use instructions below, mkdir /usr/local/apache_t3.1 6) I also made a subdirectory "sources" to have all needed sources in one place: mkdir /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources Put there all the tar files: wget http://www.apache.org/dist/apache_1.3.12.tar.gz wget http://www.modssl.org/source/mod_ssl-2.6.4-1.3.12.tar.gz wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.5a.tar.gz wget http://www.engelschall.com/sw/mm/mm-1.1.2.tar.gz wget http://java.apache.org/jserv/dist/ApacheJServ-1.1.1.tar.gz wget http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src/jakarta-ant.tar.gz wget http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src/jakarta-taglibs.tar.gz wget http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src/jakarta-tomcat.tar.gz wget http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src/jakarta-tools.tar.gz wget http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src/jakarta-watchdog.zip and then unpack them as shown below: a) apache_1.3.12.tar.gz from http://www.apache.org/dist/ gtar zxvf apache_1.3.12.tar.gz b) mod_ssl-2.6.4-1.3.12.tar.gz from http://www.modssl.org gtar zxvf mod_ssl-2.6.4-1.3.12.tar.gz c) openssl-0.9.5a.tar.gz from http://www.openssl.org gtar zxvf openssl-0.9.5a.tar.gz d) mm-1.1.2.tar.gz from http://www.engelschall.com/sw/mm/ gtar zxvf mm-1.1.2.tar.gz e) rsaref20.tar.Z -- it is no longer distributed by RSA. I got it from my private museum. It is available from many places on the Web outside US. Search the Web FOR RSAREF 2.0, and you will find a dozen. mkdir rsaref-2.0 cd rsaref-2.0 gtar Zxvf ../rsaref20.tar.Z cd .. f) ApacheJServ-1.1.1.tar.gz from http://java.apache.org/jserv/dist/ gtar zxvf ApacheJServ-1.1.1.tar.gz g) tar.gz sources for tomcat 3.1 from http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/v3.1/src jakarta-ant.tar.gz jakarta-tomcat.tar.gz jakarta-tools.tar.gz jakarta-watchdog.zip jakarta-taglibs.tar.gz I untarred them as: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources gtar zxvf jakarta-ant.tar.gz gtar zxvf jakarta-tomcat.tar.gz gtar zxvf jakarta-tools.tar.gz gtar zxvf jakarta-taglibs.tar.gz unzip jakarta-watchdog.zip While I do not need most of them, just in case, I got them all to be in sync when I need them. 7) Compiled RSAREF library needed by openssl (since we are in US and RSA has a patent, and we cannot use the decent implementation of crypto libraries). If you are in Europe, you can skip this thing. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/rsaref-2.0 cp -rp install/unix local cd local edited makefile to have CC = gcc changed all (i.e., two {:-)} occurrances of cc --> $(CC) added -fPIC to CFLAGS make mv rsaref.a librsaref.a 8) Compiled the openssl [if you are in Europe, you need to check the mod_ssl INSTALL how not to include the RSAREF] cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/openssl-0.9.5a sh config \ -L/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/rsaref-2.0/local/rsaref -fPIC make make test 9) Compiled MM shared memory library cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/mm-1.1.2 ./configure --disable-shared make cd .. 10) Configured mod_ssl cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/mod_ssl-2.6.4-1.3.12 EAPI_MM=../mm-1.1.2 \ ./configure \ --with-apache=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/apache_1.3.12 11) Configure and make and install Apache with DSO support: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/apache_1.3.12 SSL_BASE=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/openssl-0.9.5a \ RSA_BASE=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/rsaref-2.0/local \ EAPI_MM=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/mm-1.1.2 \ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache_t3.1 \ --enable-module=so \ --enable-rule=SHARED_CORE \ --enable-module=most \ --enable-shared=max \ --enable-module=ssl \ --enable-shared=ssl make make certificate TYPE=custom make install My entries for certificates with make certificate TYPE=custom were defaults, no passwords/passphrases, etc. and: STEP 0: R STEP 2: 1.

Certificate Validity [365]:1001 STEP 6: 3 STEP 7:n STEP 8:n After I created the certificates, and after I did "make install" for apache I actually discarded them and copied over my previous certificates, from my original install of Apache. Always save your all certificates/keys since otherwise everybody who was using your site will have to go through accepting site certificates again. People do not like it. My previous certificates where /usr/local/apache_JServ1.1-SC99/conf And I tarred them, and untarred them in the new directory like this: cd /usr/local/apache_JServ1.1-SC99/conf gtar zcvf /usr/local/certificates.tar.gz ssl* cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf gtar zxvf /usr/local/certificates.tar.gz 12) edited a file in /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/httpd.conf and added (actually uncommented): ServerName heechee.ccl.net Then changed ports not to confilct with other servers I am running. Port 80 --> Port 7180 Listen 80 --> Listen 7180 Listen 443 --> Listen 7143 <VirtualHost _default_:443> --> <VirtualHost _default_:7143> 13) Testing if Apache works: a) make sure other installation of apache is not running, or if it runs, it does not use port 7180 and port 7143. (do: ps -ef | grep httpd), and if httpd runs, kill it either with its own apachectl script, or if you do not know what it is just find the PID of the httpd process which is owned by root: ps -ef | grep root | grep httpd (PID is in the second column of the output from ps). Kill it first with kill PID and then find all other apaches: ps -ef | grep httpd and kill them one by one. b) start apache with: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apachectl startssl If you have warning, you have a problem, and try to do "exactly what I say" next time {:-)}. c) Use your browser (preferable on some other machine) and check if http: and https: work In my case, I tried URLs: http://heechee.ccl.net:7180/ and https://heechee.ccl.net:7143/ In the https case you should get a lot of windows which ask you for accepting the certificate if you did not have https protocol from this site before, or with different certificates. Just click Next to the series of questions, and also mark "Keep this certificate forever" on one of the boxes. d) Stop apache, since you are not finshed yet. /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apachectl stop 14) Configuring and compiling JServ 1.1.1 cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/ApacheJServ-1.1.1 ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/jserv \ --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apxs \ --with-jdk-home=$JAVA_HOME \ --with-JSDK=$JSDK_HOME \ --with-java-platform=3 \ --enable-EAPI \ --disable-debugging \ --enable-compressed-jar make make install cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf edit file httpd.conf and add a line at the very end Include /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/jserv.conf check if JServ works: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apachectl startssl and see if the URLs show something: http://heechee.ccl.net:7180/servlets/Hello http://heechee.ccl.net:7180/servlets/IsItWorking https://heechee.ccl.net:7143/servlets/Hello https://heechee.ccl.net:7143/servlets/IsItWorking Seemed to have worked for me. 15) Building and installing tomcat Before building tomcat, the CLASSPATH had to be changed to: CLASSPATH=${JAVA_HOME}/lib/tools.jar:${JAVA_HOME}/lib/dt.jar: export CLASSPATH I.e., the previous CLASSPATH needs to be zapped, and new CLASSPATH entered. It is done to avoid the class name clashes between JSDK2.0 (JServ) and (servlet pages spec 2.2 -- the tomcat). Tomcat does not use JSDK2.0 and should not see these classes in any way or you will have troubles. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/jakarta-ant ./bootstrap.sh ./build.sh PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/jakarta-ant/bin export PATH ANT_HOME=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/jakarta-ant export ANT_HOME cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/jakarta-tomcat ./build.sh This builds Tomcat with the top directory in: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/build/tomcat I moved it to the main apache directory as: mv /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/build/tomcat /usr/local/apache_t3.1 16) Starting stand alone tomcat and testing: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/bin edited startup.sh to be: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/bin/startup.sh edited shutdown.sh to be: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh edited /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf/server.xml and changed port numbers, (to avoid conflict, I already had them used by something else): <Parameter name="port" value="8080"/> --> <Parameter name="port" value="7280"/> <Parameter name="port" value="8007"/> --> <Parameter name="port" value="7287"/> In fact, I am planning on taking the tomcat web server port out someday after I am finished testing, since it is unsafe. I keep it for debug, but later on all requests to tomcat will go only via apache's mod_jserv module. Then I did: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/bin ./startup.sh In my browser I called: http://heechee.ccl.net:7280/ and it gave me the Tomcat examples page. Examples worked, so I shut down. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/bin ./shutdown.sh 17) Create scripts which start/stop the venerable JServ1.1.1 engine in manual mode: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin edited a file jserv_start /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/jserv_start Edited the jserv_stop: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/jserv_stop and of course did: chmod 755 jserv_start jserv_stop I think there is some confusion here, so I will elaborate {:-(} Note that the jserv.properties file is read by Apache's mod_jserv module only when automatic mode is on (i.e., manual mode is off): ApJServManual off If automatic startup mode is disabled, (ApJServManual on), i.e., Apache does not start tomcat or JServ1.1.1, this file is not read by Apache, i.e., putting the line: ApJServProperties /some/path/to/jserv.properties in httpd.conf (or one of its includes) is irrelevant. You can put there whatever, but if "ApJServManual on" the file is not read in by apache. This is important, since we will have actually 2 different servlets containers/engines running, each with different configurations, though they both will be talking via a single mod_jserv to Apache. In our case: _________ JServ1.1.1 (TCP server) / Listens on port: 7288 / Configured by reading jserv.properties (TCP Client) / Apache---mod_jserv \ \ Configured by reading server.xml/web.xml \_________ Listens on port: 7287 Tomcat 3.1 (TCP server) Note that while Apache is a server for external requests for Web pages, in this situation it is a client, since it first contacts the JServ1.1.1 and Tomcat 3.1. What follows is that the JServ1.1.1 should be started before the Apache, and wait for Apache to contact them. Of course, this would not be satisfied if Apache starts the servlet container. In fact, it is quite irrelevant, since it is unlikely that the request for servlet/JSP comes before the servlet container is running. And even if, than what? User will see an error message... You cannot start configuration with 2 (or more) servlet containers in an automatic mode. You can only start the single servlet container automatically (i.e. with (ApJServManual off) and have Apache read in the jserv.properties or tomcat.properties file. While it would be in principle possible, the current configuration options and syntax allows only for one properties file, for the container in the httpd.conf. Even if containers were identical and shared all properties and options, there is one thing they cannot share -- a TCP port number. Hence, in case of more than one servlet container, you cannot start them automatically from within Apache, you have to issue the command yourself. It has an important disadvantage. The Apache mod_jserv module was watching JServ running, and if by a reason of some crooked servlet the thing died, the Apache was restarting it automatically without human (or some other, say daemon) intervetion. Without Apache automatic mode, when servlet engine dies, a human, or some other program needs to restart it. One way of doing the is to use Mon: http://www.kernel.org/software/mon/ In the manual mode, you have to provide JServ and Tomcat with configuration files. You can see that in the scripts: jserv_start and jserv_stop, the file: jserv.properties is given on the command line as: java [-java_options] org.apache.jserv.JServ jserv.properties [option] You can see java_options by typing "java". The options to the org.apache.jserv.JServ are: -v --- server version -V --- server version with details -r --- restart server -s --- stop server And no option means: start server. You can get a lot more info by consulting documents which come with JServ1.1.1 distribution, the official site: http://java.apache.org/jserv and: http://www.magiccookie.com/computers/apache-jserv/ As to Tomcat, the file tomcat.properties is present in the distribution in $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat.properties. While I never started tomcat in automatic mode, I suspect, it is used when you have ApJServManual off ApJServProperties /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf/tomcat.properties in httpd.conf or an Include file. It is my understanding that in the manual mode (i.e., when ApJServManual on) this file is not used by tomcat at all, and tomcat is configured based on server.xml and web.xml in the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf directory. 18) Edited the /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/jserv.properties port=8007 --> port=7288 zones=root --> zones=jserv111 root.properties=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/zone.properties --> jserv111.properties=/usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/zone.properties The final file looked like: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/jserv.properties 19) Edited the file $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat.conf , i.e.,: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf/tomcat.conf to be: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf 20) Added tomcat.conf to httpd.conf by adding a line: Include /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf/tomcat.conf at the end of /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/httpd.conf (I removed the Include line with jserv.conf) Also made some other changes in the httpd.conf. After tomcat/apache is compiled/built, the default configuration of mod_jserv.c and mod_rewrite_c is wrong, since mod_jserv follows mod_rewrite (for details look up: http://www.magiccookie.com/computers/apache-jserv/ ) To fix it I put mod_serv before mod_rewrite in LoadModule jserv_module libexec/mod_jserv.so LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/mod_rewrite.so and AddModule mod_jserv.c AddModule mod_rewrite.c and commented out the line # LoadModule jserv_module libexec/mod_jserv.so in /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf/tomcat.conf 21) In the /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/httpd.conf I added some rewrite rules: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteLog /usr/local/apache_t3.1/logs/rewrite_log RewriteLogLevel 2 RewriteRule ^/ROOT/examples /examples [R] RewriteRule ^/ROOT/test /test [R] RewriteRule ^/ROOT/admin /admin [R] RewriteRule ^/ROOT/ROOT /ROOT [R] RewriteRule ^/tomcat.gif /ROOT/tomcat.gif [R] RewriteRule ^/examples/servlets$ /examples/servlets/ [R] RewriteRule ^/examples/jsp$ /examples/jsp/ [R] RewriteRule ^/examples$ /examples/ [R] RewriteRule ^/admin$ /admin/ [R] RewriteRule ^/ROOT$ /ROOT/ [R] RewriteRule ^/test$ /test/ [R] </IfModule> for the HTTP (port 7189) and HTTPS (virtual host at 7143). It was needs to cure a problem that /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/webapps/ROOT is a Document Root for Tomcat, but for Apache, the /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs is the Document Root. Moreover, for reasons which I quite frankly do not understand the URL which like https://heechee.ccl.net:7143/some/directory which served by Tomcat, comes back as: http://heechee.ccl.net:7143/some/directory and the error is repported. However, when one rewrites the URL to add the slash after directory, i.e., http://heechee.ccl.net:7143/some/directory/ the things are working fine and HTTPS is used. Hopefully it will be taken care when Tomcat has support for HTTPS. 22) Created new users, in my case webflow2, and webrun2, and groups for them, home diretories, and normal login regular environment. The webrun2 was assigned /bin/ksh and webflow2 had tcsh as primary shell. Note, that when you execute the script as su - uid -c script the script will be executed with the default shell (i.e., the shell the user uid has assigned in /etc/passwd) of the uid user, and it does not matter what you put in #!/bin/someshell on the top of your script. The script is sourced with default shell, not forked with a new shell. The webflow2 will own most of the files in the web site, while the webrun2 will be the user who runs the Apache server, the tomcat, and the JServ. It will own log files and other files which the apache/tomcat/JServ need to write. In /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/httpd.conf I did: User webrun2 Group webrun2 Final version of httpd.conf was: usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/httpd.conf Also chown_ed to webrun2 the log directories: chown -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/logs chgrp -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/logs chown -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/logs chgrp -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/logs And for tomcat: chown -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf chgrp -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf chown -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/logs chgrp -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/logs chown -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/work chgrp -R webrun2 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/work 23) In /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin cp apachectl apache-tomcat-jserv and edited apache-tomcat-jserv to have a script to start/stop tomcat/apache/jserv /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apache-tomcat-jserv chmoded apache-tomcat-jserv to be executable : chmod 755 /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apache-tomcat-jserv 24) Started the apache/tomcat as: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apache-tomcat-jserv startssl and checked if http://heechee.ccl.net/examples and https://heechee.ccl.net/examples worked. They did, so I killed the server with: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apache-tomcat-jserv stop 25) changed permissions/ownership on the example directories cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/sources/build/tomcat/webapps chown -R webflow2 . chgrp -R webflow2 . cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/logs chown -R webrun2 . 26) After all thise changes, the ports should be the following: Orig New Files affected http(apache) --> 80 --> 7180 conf/httpd.conf https --> 443 --> 7143 conf/httpd.conf http(tomcat) --> 8080 --> 7280 tomcat/conf/server.xml tomcat/jserv --> 8007 --> 7287 tomcat/conf/tomcat.conf tomcat/conf/tomcat.properties tomcat/conf/server.xml JServ1.1.1 --> 8007 --> 7288 conf/jserv/jserv.properties 27) The server.xml file in my case looked like: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/conf/server.xml 28) Since starting/stopping apache+jserv+tomcat in this environment requires one to be a root, I created C. wrappers to start and stop the whole zoo. /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apache_start.c and compiled it with gcc -o apache_start apache_start.c as a root, and then added suid permissions to the resulting apache_start executable file as: chmod ug+s apache_start I did exactly the same with apache_stop.c /usr/local/apache_t3.1/bin/apache_stop.c Now, people do not have to have root access to start/stop Web Server, Tomcat and JServ I also added a C program killme.c which kills the processes which are running by user webrun2. It is indentded to be used after "apache_stop" to kill some runaway processes started by apache, Tomcat, or JServ. After compiling the program: gcc -o killme killme.c changed its user and group ownership to webrun2 and added SETUID permission bits chmod ug+s killme To learn which processes need to be killed, the user does ps -ef | grep webrun2 | grep -v grep (I actually saved this line as a shell script "killwhich" so they can just type: killwhich). and the user can kill the processes listed by previous command as: killme pid1 pid2 .... where pidn is the process id number in the second column. /usr/local/apach_t3.1/bin/killme.c 29) Since some of the work we do will involve CORBA, and we use the ORBacus from Object Oriented Concepts (http://www.ooc.com/) I created /usr/local/orbacus-3.3.1, created there subdirectories: JOB, JTC, OB, and jidl, and downloaded LICENSES/READMES and tar balls from ftp.ooc.com: JOB-3.3.1*, JTC-1.0.10*, OB-3.3.1*, jidl-3.3.1-solaris.tar.gz and diligently unpacked them. a) cd /usr/local/orbacus-3.3.1/jidl tar zxvf jidl-3.3.1-solaris.tar.gz then made links: cd /usr/local/bin ln -s ../orbacus-3.3.1/jidl/idlcpp idlcpp ln -s ../orbacus-3.3.1/jidl/iordump iordump ln -s ../orbacus-3.3.1/jidl/irdel irdel ln -s ../orbacus-3.3.1/jidl/irfeed irfeed ln -s ../orbacus-3.3.1/jidl/irserv irserv ln -s ../orbacus-3.3.1/jidl/jidl jidl b) cd /usr/local/orbacus-3.3.1/JOB tar zxvf JOB-3.3.1.jars.tar.gz which produced: OBEvent.jar OB.jar OBNaming.jar OBProperty.jar OBTest.jar OBTrading.jar OBUtil.jar which will be later added to CLASSPATH At this moment, other files were not needed. 30) I installed the old version of XML4J (xml4j_2_0_15) from IBM, since we have some older servlets to port. The IBM site http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/xml4j/ distributes only the newest stuff, and I know of now way to retrieve the older thing. But I had the old tar in my old instalation. So I did: mkdir /usr/local/xml4j cp .../xml4j_2_0_15.tar.gz . tar zxvf xml4j_2_0_15.tar.gz I linked doc directories to the Web tree cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/xml4j/xml4j_2_0_15/apiDocs xml4j-apiDocs ln -s /usr/local/xml4j/xml4j_2_0_15/docs xml4j-docs ln -s /usr/local/xml4j/xml4j_2_0_15/TXapiDocs TXapiDocs 31) Installed Xalan-J: Created directory and unpacked tar, and made links mkdir /usr/local/Xalan-J cd /usr/local/Xalan-J wget http://xml.apache.org/dist/xalan-j/xalan-j_1_0_1.tar.gz tar zxvf xalan-j_1_0_1.tar.gz I made the docs available by this link below: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/Xalan-J/xalan_1_0_1/docs xalan-docs> 32) Installed Xerces-J mkdir /usr/local/Xerces-J cd /usr/local/Xerces-J wget http://xml.apache.org/dist/xerces-j/Xerces-J-bin.1.1.1.tar.gz tar zxvf Xerces-J-bin.1.1.1.tar.gz I made the docs available on the Web by: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/Xerces-J/xerces-1_1_1/docs xerces-docs 34) I also installed Cocoon from xml.apache.org, but I am exploring the matter further, since supposedly (but I am not sure at this time) cocoon uses the older versions of xerces which is not compatible with the latest one (the one which I installed). mkdir /usr/local/Cocoon cd /usr/local/Cocoon wget http://xml.apache.org/dist/cocoon/Cocoon-1.7.4.tar.gz and linked the docs to the Web Root. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/Cocoon/cocoon-1.7.4/docs cocoon-docs 34) Installed JSSE (JavaTM Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) 1.0.1) available from http://java.sun.com/products/jsse/ mkdir /usr/local/jsse with a netscape browser go to: http://java.sun.com/products/jsse/ Click on domestic distribution Logged in, accepted, continue, answerer Yes, Continue, downloaded jsse1_0_1-do.zip cd /usr/local/jsse cp .../jsse1_0_1-do.zip . unzip jsse1_0_1-do.zip cd jsse1.0.1 cd doc cp -p ../*.html . and linked the docs to the Web Root. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/jsse/jsse1.0.1/doc jsse-docs 35) Installed JCE 1.2 Java Cryptography Extension 1.2 Go to: http://www.javasoft.com/products/jce/index.html Click on: Download JCE 1.2 Software This will get you: jce1_2-do.tar.Z mkdir /usr/local/JCE cd /usr/local/JCE cp .../jce1_2-do.tar.Z . zcat jce1_2-do.tar.Z | tar xvf - and linked the docs to the Web Root. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/JCE/jce1.2/doc jce-docs 36) Installed JAF JavaBeansTM Activation Framework http://java.sun.com/beans/glasgow/jaf.html. Click on download, continue, accept, FTP download get jaf1_0_1.zip mkdir /usr/local/jaf cd /usr/local/jaf cp .../jaf1_0_1.zip . unzip jaf1_0_1.zip and linked the docs to the Web Root. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/jaf/jaf-1.0.1/doc jaf-docs 37) Installed JavaMail 1.1.3 release: With your browser go to: http://www.javasoft.com/products/javamail/index.html Click on continue, accept, get javamail1_1_3.zip = 1,960,787 bytes. mkdir /usr/local/JavaMail cd /usr/local/JavaMail cp .../javamail1_1_3.zip . unzip javamail1_1_3.zip and linked the docs to the Web Root. cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/JavaMail/javamail-1.1.3/docs JavaMail-docs 38) I copied the jars to the Tomcat lib directory cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/tomcat/lib cp /usr/local/orbacus-3.3.1/JOB/*jar . cp /usr/local/xml4j/xml4j_2_0_15/xml4j.jar . cp /usr/local/Xalan-J/xalan_1_0_1/bsf.jar . cp /usr/local/Xalan-J/xalan_1_0_1/bsfengines.jar . cp /usr/local/Xalan-J/xalan_1_0_1/xalan.jar . cp /usr/local/Xerces-J/xerces-1_1_1/xerces.jar . cp /usr/local/jsse/jsse1.0.1/lib/*.jar . cp /usr/local/JavaMail/javamail-1.1.3/mail.jar . cp /usr/local/jaf/jaf-1.0.1/activation.jar . cp /usr/local/JCE/jce1.2/lib/jce1_2-do.jar . 39) I added and modified the JServ properties file: /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/jserv.properties to include jars. /usr/local/apache_t3.1/conf/jserv/jserv.properties 40) Basic environment for working with Java on webflow2 account. Since the assumption is that all content for this Apache server is owned by user webflow2, beside some files which are owned by webrun2 (a user/group which runs Web server and servlet containers). The webflow2 runs /bin/tcsh as default shell. The .cshrc file in the HOME directory is: /home/webflow2/.cshrc I provided short scripts which allow users to switch from java1.1 (for applets) to 1.2(latest production release) to 1.3(lastest beta) /home/webflow2/bin/cjdk1.1 /home/webflow2/bin/cjdk1.2 /home/webflow2/bin/cjdk1.3 and have put the following aliases into .cshrc alias jdk1.1 'source /home/webflow2/bin/cjdk1.1' alias jdk1.2 'source /home/webflow2/bin/cjdk1.2' alias jdk1.3 'source /home/webflow2/bin/cjdk1.3' e.g., typing: jdk1.1 when you are logged in as webflow2 with set your environment to the Java 1.1 needed for applets compilation, and you can get back to Java 1.3 by typing jdk1.3 And if you have problems with JDK1.3, you can always try the J2SE by typing jdk1.2 41) I also created the basic running environment for user webrun2. The webrun2 is running ksh and is not expected to be used often, though, during development, it may be used occassionally. The webrun2 user (see point 22 above) is the id which Apache/Tomcat/JServ are using to run. I created the .profile file: /home/webrun2/.profile and also the kjdk1.x which allow you to switch the release of JDK.. /home/webrun2/bin/kjdk1.1 /home/webrun2/bin/kjdk1.2 /home/webrun2/bin/kjdk1.3 42) Created a script "cs" script to compile servlets and placed it in /home/webflow2/bin directory. The script is: /home/webflow2/bin/cs To run it, you should cd to the directory where you have your servlet source, and then execute: cs MyNiceServlet.java You can also add more options to the the java compiler (javac) but you need to enclose it in quotes. For example, to have more output you can do: cs "-verbose MyNiceServlet.java" 43) I created a skeleton of the web application called SciPortal and mounted it as SciPortal under Apache DocumentRoot. My $APACHE_HOME is /usr/local/apache_t3.1. I created directory SciPortal under $APACHE_HOME/htdocs: cd /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs mkdir SciPortal cd SciPortal mkdir WEB-INF mkdir WEB-INF/classes mkdir WEB-INF/lib 44) For doc directories which came with commercial software, and which are linked in the /usr/local/apache_t3.1/htdocs I placed the .htaccess file. The docs may have some copyright restrictions and I am too lazy to read the small print.. /usr/local/WebRoot/jkl/.htaccess |
