I am trying to run selenium test cases on my site from windows machine and getting a wierd firefox launching problem from past few days.

I have tried few options per selenium FAQ page, however the problem still persists.
I have tried following things

1. I have tried cleaning up the C:\DOCUME~1\fromdev\LOCALS~1\Temp directory. The directory mentioned in the java stacktrace does not really exist on my system.
2. I have also tried restarting my system, just avoid any existing processes causing this.
3. I have also tried checking the task manager on my windows machine and I dont see any firefox processes.
4. I have also tried removing existing firefox profiles and recreating them.
5. I have also tried firefox with no-addon mode, however no difference.

The exception stacktrace is as shown below.

what are you trying to do here? are you trying to get the username? why do you want to use HTTP ServletRequest ? Which portal are you using? I found something for liferay here

I guess you need to do following

1. Use a Library like POI from Apatche to read the excel file

2. Then use File IO Library like Apache Commons - IO to created the directory structure.


Hope this helps

Learning by questions can be short term solution for your job need but it may not really get you going on the java programming job. If you want to be successful in long run then try Some sites I really found useful in learning Java

1. Sun's Java Tutorial - On-line version of book from Addison-Wesley. Learning all about Java.

2. Good videos for learning eclipse with java.

3. Java Technology has become huge with lots of frameworks and libraries, so have a look at Some things you must know about Java

4. I would also recommend to refer some good books. "Thinking in Java" is my favorite one or pick any from 5 best Core Java Books

5. I would also recommend you to start doing some hands on coding. Its always better to try some code to understand the concepts well.

I dont think there any interceptor like that. But you can easily write your own.

Checkout this Struts2 Interceptor

Try Struts 2

Sorry, I guess I didnt read your question completely. You probably are using struts 1.3.8.

Can you please post your code?

1. You may need to use JavaScript reset() function for resetting all fields in HTML form. Here is one link I just picked from a quick google search JavaScript Reset

2. This is a example from Showcase application which should help you understand the Struts2 AJAX Autocomplete dropdown population on change event

I didnt understand what 1.3.8 is? Is this Struts version? or Java?

Also it will be good to keep the current directory in CLASSPATH. you can add it like

Here is a good book I would suggest you to refer for better understanding on threading "Thinking in Java" by Bruce Eckel
This is fundamental question about thread synchronization and lock.
You need to understand how locking works when we use synchronized keyword.

Just to answer this question, Other threads can enter other methods of "that object" if those methods are not synchronized.

Here are more similar scenarios you can look at and brainstorm about. Java Threading Questions

Best way to learn threading fundamentals is to start writing simple programs and observe the output.
What Java version you are using? If its JDK1.5 or later then you should look at the java.util.concurrent package. JDK API

I guess You must be looking for something like a BlockingQueue, there are many implementation of BlockingQueue available and if you want you can write your own by implementing BlockingQueue interface.

Here is a example how you can use the ArrayBlockingQueue in multi threaded environment.
JEP is a good Java library, and its 2.4.1 version was GPL.

The Boolean expressions are supported but it does not give direct boolean result.

The results of a boolean expression would be returned to you as a Double object where 1.0 = TRUE and 0.0 is FALSE.


The Boolean Expression Evaluation Example code can be used as a Utility in your application for Boolean expression evaluation.

SoftReference are good way to implement memory efficient cache as the Java Specification says that Garbage collector will clear all soft references before throwing OutofMemoryError.

Code will definitely become more complex then a simple HashMap cache, so if you are going to build a really memory consuming cache then you can utilize a SoftReference based cache.

Here is an example of [ Cache Using SoftReference ]

There are more ways to implement reference queue clean up logic. May be other people on forum can also give input on the same.

Not sure on this issue but I hope you are using the proguard.pro file for making sure that your startup classes are not obfuscated. For example




This piece of configuration will make sure you MyStartupClass name and its method startMethod name is intact after obfuscation.

If this is not the problem, then I would suggest you to use a decompiler like jadclipse and try debugging where its breaking.
