[Apache Tomcat Maven plugin] Howto specify the Document base ?

Dear tomcat users,

I try to use the Tomcat Maven
plugin<http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2.0-SNAPSHOT/index.html>'s
"run" goal on a webapp. The webapp is generated by
Enunciate<http://enunciate.codehaus.org/> into
the "*target\${artifactId}-${version}*" folder. So the tomcat plugin
complains because it can't found the expected document base.

How can I change the document base ?

Thanks.

Re: [Apache Tomcat Maven plugin] Howto specify the Document base ?

Hello,
See http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2.0-beta-1/tomcat7-maven-plugin/run-mojo.html#warSourceDirectory

So you must be able to configure the plugin :

<configuration>
  <warSourceDirectory>target/${artifactId}-${version}</warSourceDirectory>
will be better with
<warSourceDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}/${artifactId}-${version}</warSourceDirectory>
</configuration>

Re: Correct behavior while checking the thread binding in DirContextURLStreamHandler ?

No sure whether I understood you clearly,  if a context is binding on the
current thread, and current context classloader has parent classloader,
current get method will throw an IllegalStateException. So my question is
that, in this scenario, should the context binded on the thread be ignored ?
I did not find too many comments on the svn log, while I guess that the
logic may be :
a. Check whether there is a context binding on the current context
classloader, if does, return it.
b. Check whether there is a context binding on the current thread, if does,
return it.
c. Check whether there is a context binding on the classloader tree of the
current context classloader, if does return it.
d. Throw an IllegalStateException.

Tomcat Form Authentication Timeout Behavior

I've noticed that if I POST to an authenticated URL in a web app 
configured for form-based authentication, Tomcat delivers the login 
form, and then replays the POST just fine *unless* the current state of 
the browser is one where I had already been authenticated but that 
session had timed out.  In that case, Tomcat fails to deliver the POST data.

I assume this is a known issue/limitation.  If not, is there some 
configuration setting I'm missing or some such?  This is with Tomcat 7.0.23.

If you are logged-in and experience a timeout while you stare at a
POST form, the next POST should ask for your credentials and then
re-POST the form.

Your description about seems to claim that Tomcat can somehow tell the
difference between a POST to a timed-out session and a post to a
session which never existed. Tomcat does not keep old sessions around
for the purposes of messing up your flows.

Are you sure you are describing your observations properly?

Tomcat *does* have a maximum size for a saved post (see
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/http.html,
"maxSavePostSize" - the default is 4kb). I actually don't know what
happens if the POST size exceeds this value since I've never needed

RE: How to configure certificate file (*.cer) in Tomcat 6

FYI, Here's how we did it with APR for local workstation SSL.

Download APR from here: http://tomcat.apache.org/download-native.cgi

Copy the files (openssl.exe and tc-native.dll)  into the tomcat bin
directory

Set up your SSL connector, pointing to your CA signed server
SSLCertificateFile and the CA as SSLCACertificateFile:

<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
               maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
               SSLCertificateFile="c:/temp/localhost.cer"
               SSLCACertificateFile="c:/temp/ca2cert.pem"
               />

Re: How to configure certificate file (*.cer) in Tomcat 6

Thanks Dale!!!

Few more questions

1. As I have exported *.cer as I have using Digital Badge in Internet
Explorer.Can I use the same *.cer to configure in server.xml.If not, how
can I generate the same file.

2. How can I generate ca2cert.pem file to use in server.xml
