I am working on a web application that allows users to upload attachments. These attachments are stored on a different drive than that of the web application. How can I create an alias (equivalent to Apache HTTP server's aliases) to this drive so that users can download these attachments? Currently I am creating a context file and dum...

I'm porting a servlet from Tomcat 5.5 to OC4J 10.1.3.1. In Tomcat we set up a JDBCRealm for authentication and authorization. This was configured via the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml. Is there a similar mechanism in OC4J? Where do I start looking for it? How do I define it? ...

The company I work for sells a J2EE application that runs on Tomcat, WebSphere, or WebLogic. We have a customer that is trying to decide between Tomcat and WebSphere.

Having analyzed a light-load web application running in tomcat, using JMX Console, it turns out the "PS Old Gen" is growing slowly but constant. It starts with 200MB and grows around 80MB/Hour. CPU is not an issue, it runs at 0-1% on average, but somewhere it leaks memory, so it will become unstable some days after deployment. How do i...
I understand that I can specify system properties to Tomcat by passing arguments with the -D parameter, for example "-Dmy.prop=value".

I would like to do this because, first, it is eas...
