Subject: Re: antioJarLocking not working
I tried sticking the jars there - but it did not seem to make any
difference.
Let me recap on what we are trying to accomplish.
The instructor for the course is using the NetBeans 6.5 IDE for ruby
development. The students would then create a war file for deployment
on tomcat 6. The students will upload the war folder to a deploy
folder, from which a scheduled script will copy the war files into the
tomcat document root for deployment.
tomcat document root?
Does that mean webapps folder? As a war or unpacked?
Would love to know what the actual error message is when its just a standard
TC setup... its a big clue ;)
The thing that made you want to do antilocking in the first place?
Aaron, I think your best bet is to get into the ruby mailing list, which
could well be the netbeans mailing list now, because I think ruby is now
Suns baby.
I think Ruby is broken...
You see, I think that antiFile locking when tomcat is using a class, and
some other app has to come in an say read an icon from a package is one
thing...
but I think if a class loader is just not letting go... thats a bug.
So say ruby has some native code... and say that is started as a static
variable... often is in a kind of singleton...
Now that thing is sitting inside tomcat, and tomcat just cant let it go...
it wants to but ruby is running and so tomcat politely waits for it...
forever.
Windows says get lost, something is busy with this folder... which you would
see if you just tried to delete that folder, after its run...
So if windows cant even delete it... no chance that TC can change it...
So I'm not sure at all if antiLocking means... I can fix a screwed webapp...
thats whats bugging me.
Would not be surprized at all that ruby has a few things set if targeting a
webapp... as opposed to running as a machine scripting tool.
Possibly theres a lib that nust not be included... or something.
Unfortunately I dont know ruby and actually hardly see it mentioned in TC's
mailing list.
Good luck...
ps what I would try do is from /manager/html
Try undeploy the old one and deploy the war from the web page...
If that works... TC does have ant script that does the same thing...
ie maybe undeploying an existing app is enough to get TC to kill the thing.
Sorry cant help more ;(
