SOLVED: Re: Tomcat4 FilePermission problem with DeployedServices.ds
For those of you having problems with tomcat4 & SOAP in Debian...
tomcat4 tries to create the file DeployedServices.ds in the _current
directory_ when you deploy a new SOAP service. So it must be running on
a directory writable by the 'tomcat4' user or it should find an already
created DeployedServices.ds file where to write to.
I fixed this cd'ing to the $CATALINA_HOME/temp directory (which is
writable by tomcat) BEFORE launching the tomcat daemon (just edit
/etc/init.d/tomcat4 and place a 'cd "$CATALINA_HOME/temp"' line before
the start-stop-daemon one), and creating a new '10soap.policy' file
under /etc/tomcat4/policy.d/ containing:
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/work/localhost/soap/-" {
permission java.io.FilePermission "DeployedServices.ds",
"read,write";
};
This solved the problem. Services are being added to the newly created
'DeployedServices.ds' file when I do so from the SOAP web admin app.
My system: Debian Woody (r0)
Great work made whith this package by the maintainers... Except from
this little problem with SOAP, everything worked seamlessly and... more
important, quickly!
