A few questions for you:

Are you using a GUI like Gnome maybe? or is this from a headless terminal?

How are you opening the shell you're using to run catalina.sh (I have to assume you're using catalina.sh instead of catalina.bat if you're on a Linux server)? Are you calling this from an IDE perhaps?

What is the command exactly you're using to start catalina?

On a Linux system you can use something called nohup to run something in the background and close the tty you're using to call it but that isn't always necessary.

Thanks for that, Jeanne. Not sure how I opened another thread. Surely I clicked the wrong button. Again, thanks for the book recommendation.

Thanks. I do have that one but am wondering if there is something else.

Is there a book that someone could recommend for learning and understanding Spring from a holistic perspective? I have been reading and going through Java The Complete Reference (9th Edition covering Java 8). I am wondering if there is a book out there that is similar to this in scope but for Spring. I would like it to cover as much of the Spring pieces as there are as opposed to just reading about WebMVC only. Thanks for any suggestions.

Looks like I had to build a jar with dependencies with 'mvn' and then put that jar into war/WEB-INF/lib.

Hi Jayesh,

Again, thanks for the link to this tutorial. It's very very helpful.

I do notice that this is more for a JDK of 1.5 and Tomcat of either version 6 or 5.5. I am using JDK 1.7.0_60 and using Tomcat 7.0.55. I have followed all the steps until I'm now at the first run of ant (Deploy the application to Tomcat). My ant version is 1.9.3.

After wrangling a bit, I can get "ant" to run successfully. However, when I run "ant deploy" I get this error:

error: package org.apache.logging.log4j does not exist
[javac] import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;

I also get these other errors:

error: package org.springframework.context does not exist

and so forth.

These packages are added to my maven pom.xml but perhaps they're not being seen by ant. How can I get this to find these packages from the command line when I run "ant"?

Hi Jayesh. I have not. I'll give it a look over. Thanks very much for the suggestion.

Hi Guys,

I'm a Spring noob but I do have a minimal working Spring project with Hibernate functionality. I would also like to add some web functionality to this project. What is involved in getting Spring MVC to work here? Is there a wizard that allows conversion or is it as simple as adding a WEB-INF folder and spring-mvc into my pom.xml and set up some controllers? Just curious.

Thanks!

If you can post a copy of the cronjob entry and some code, I'll be happy to help you out.

You can do something like this in a tight:

String text = "<rdf:RDF
xmlns:rdf='http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#'";

String del1 = "xmlns:";

String newString = text.split(del1)[1].split("=")[0];

System.out.println(newString);

But a regular expression would be the way to go.

camelCase -- remember... it is more important that your variables, methods, etc be understandable rather than just brief. The name of methods (verbs really) should be similar to: getSomething or setSomething or doSomething.
