chkservd and Tomcat

[Sash]

Has anyone been able to get chkservd to monitor Tomcat?

Thanks

You need to enable a port in server.xml like the 8082 test connector

<!-- Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.0 Test Connector on port 8082 -->
<Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http10.HttpConnector"
port="8082" minProcessors="1" maxProcessors="1"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
acceptCount="1" debug="0"/>

and then put this in a tomcat file in /etc/chkserv.d

#SERVICE = PORT, SEND, RESPONSE, RESTART COMMAND
service[Tomcat_JSP]=8082,GET / HTTP/1.0,HTTP/1..,/usr/sbin/stoptomcat;/usr/sbin/starttomcat

Hello

Thanks that worked great, until we installed JSPs on a site and then the added text got deleted from the server.xml file.

Is there a specific place that the text should go in the file? We have it listed under the line " <!-- Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.0 Test Connector on port 8082 -->"

That is the correct spot. But check if there is a server.xml.in file. If there is make the same change in there as well. Reason being is that the .in file is what cpanel uses when adding servlets, it regenerates the server.xml from scratch.

Hope that helps.

I was editing the server.xml file and not the server.xml.in file.

Thanks,
Mike

You need to edit both files.

Hi

After upgrading to tomcaty 4.1.2 we get the service monitor message about : Tomcat_JSP failed

Jsp is woking fine the servlets aswel. Any clue what to change so status monitor will monitor the new installation?

We had 4.0.3 installed bofore

In 4.1.2 you need to go back and enable a listen port as listed above. Make sure the port matches what chkservd is looking for.
