Tomcat entry missing within (or moved from?) WHM --> cPanel --> Plugins

[rsilviu]

Hello,

I can't find Tomcat within WHM --> cPanel --> Plugins.

I'm running
WHM 11.2.0 cPanel 11.6.0-R15076
REDHAT Enterprise 4 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0

Any idea beside manually install Tomcat?
There was an installer at a certain point in time.

 

[Craigles]

Yep, i'll put my hands up on this one as well.

I was like, WTF where the hell is the cat?
It's always under Plugins and it's MIA at the moment.

Anyone got an idea on how to install it manually??

Ta,
Craig

This is what I got in response from cPanel Techs.

// ------------------------ //

Hello,

Tomcat was removed because it was VERY outdated and broken. Tomcat support has been included in the Easyapache 3 installer which is available in EDGE only currently. To find out when Easyapache 3 will make it into the different tree's, please visit http://www.cpanel.net/cpanel11 and see STAGE 2.

Thank you.

Error on /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/conf/web.xml

Hi,

this morning after the usual upcp we found that tomcat wasn't working properly, logs/catalina.out had this:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: addChild: Child name 'httpservlet' is not unique

It seems conf/web.xml had a double listing of these two servlet definitions:

<servlet>
<servlet-name>httpservlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.catalina.servlets.InvokerServlet
</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>0</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet>
<servlet-name>httpservlets</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.catalina.servlets.InvokerServlet
</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>0</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

Once the second one pair was removed and restarted tomcat it started working again, not sure if that's of use to anyone, just thought I'd post...

 

[nettigritty]

i had that entry repeated thrice but removing duplicates did not help.

This is what i followed to fix it..

Thanks this fixed my problem also

I just spoke with the developers about this as I was a little freaked out about this.

They're working on new installers and polishing things up quite a bit for cPanel 11 Stage 2. Basically things in their current state were so broken that it was decided to remove the installer functionality until the fix can propagate through the builds (note, this only affects the installer - if you use these modules already they will not cease functioning).

You can still install Tomcat, mod_resin and mod_mono manually in the meantime. However, cPanel 11 Stage 2 will introduce far improved installation functionality and remove the "BETA" label from these items.

It will be a lot better once it's all done, in the meantime just sit tight .

UPDATE: The developers are restoring the old installers due to popular demand for them.

Hello,

Tomcat is not working with Cpanel.. Any ETA when it will be fixed. I have reinstalled tomcat manually on server, But still the same problem.

 

[Shamele]

Same here. Tomcat broke after latest cPanel upgrade.

***FIXED***
After the Tomcat was added back to the install tool with the latest upgrade, I was able to uninstall and reinstall it. Everything works now.

 

[Shaya]

I have uninstalled and reinstalled tomcat from CPanel Plugins and It returns this:

The Tomcat addon module has been temporarily disabled.
It will reappear once EasyApache with Apache 2 support
has been released.

Please let me know how you could install it from WHM.

 

[Shaya]

Does anyone have any fix for this?!!

 

[raman]

Please help

Any updates on this.. or steps to fix this.......

 

[denisdekat09]

I also have the same problem.

I got these instruction after trying to run the install manually:

If you look at /usr/local/cpanel/modules-install/tomcat-Linux-i686/install you
will see on line 24 contains the output you see while trying to execute this
script, comment out starting at line 24 though the __END__ statement and you
should be able to install tomcat again.

But they did not work. Ironically, I only run updates manually and had the version of Cpanel just how I liked it. But some feature stopped working and they suggested and upgrade. Post the upgrade Tomcat broke and they fed me that the line that it is not supported. I find this highly irresponsible really...

The developers have once again disabled the functionality due to the support issues that have arisen from the installer. This functionality will be available via EasyApache3 in Stage 2 of cPanel 11 (note, it is already available in EDGE).
