Today, I know how to create a new RAP project with the RAP target 2.1 (release of June 2013)
I can start my new project with Jetty into my Eclipse Kepler environment
I cannot start my product (war) with a Tomcat server (local Windows desktop)

In the attachment file, you'll find two projects:
- MyApp (Rap 2.1 Project - the main application)
- MyCommon (a plugin with the future common RAP features for the current "MyApp" and the future other RAP applications)
Note: MyApp is just a Hello World application... (to reduce the size of the project)

To run this application into Eclipse Kepler;
You must right-click on the MyApp project and "Run As > RAP application"

The entry point of my application is the following path:
http://127.0.0.1:52772/myapp
Note about the port: it's a generated port by eclipse (but you can fix it into the launching file)

The launching configuration is described into the "MyApp.launch" file
The war product to create a new war is the "mywar.warproduct" file



I know how create, deploy and use a war file (RAP 1.5.X) on tomcat
create => war product plugin
deploy => start the tomcat server
use => call the URL of my application
For example in RAP 1.5.X with a custom theme (id: customTheme), the url was
http://127.0.0.1:52772/myapp/customTheme

Now: how to run a "correct" war file (RAP 2.1) on a tomcat server?
I don't know.

Please, Help me
Thanks in advance

Hi,

you didn't explain the problem so far. Didn't you manage to export a war
file? Did you export a war but it didn't work?

In case you re-used an existing war products file from an earlier
version, you could try to delete it and create a new one from a working
launch config.

Regards,
Ralf

I can create a war file with the "War Product Plugin"

But I cannot use this war with a tomcat server because, the response of this server is always: 404

Example with a Tomcat 5.5.17

1/ After creation of the war file "mywar.war" (Eclipse > War Product > config > Wizard to create a new war)
2/ I deploy the war file on my tomcat server (local desktop)
3/ I got a new "mywar" folder in my tomcat server (C:\...\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\webapps)
4/ I call my application with the following URL:
http://127.0.0.1/mywar

5/ The response is:
HTTP Status 404 - ProxyServlet: /mywar

type Status report

message ProxyServlet: /mywar

description The requested resource (ProxyServlet: /mywar) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5.17


Note: into Eclipse with Jetty,
http://127.0.0.1/mywar shows my application!?

Simple question:
How to call my application after deployment?

http://localhost/MyApp doesn't work
if "localhost" is a Tomcat Server
I receive an error "404"

http://localhost/MyApp works
if "localhost" is the Jetty Server (from my Eclipse Kelper Environment)
I see my application...

In a tomcat deployment, every web application has a context path. If
your war file is named 'foo.war', the context path should be 'foo/'. So
instead of http://localhost/MyApp, you have to use the URL
http://localhost/foo/MyApp.

HTH,
Ralf

Ok - I know that but I don't understand why the response of my server is always:
HTTP Status 404 - /mywar/myapp

I tried with others names of war file (for other paths) and I got always the same response:
HTTP Status 404 - /XXXXXX/myapp

XXXXXX for other paths (wars file names)


Thank you anyway for the time you spend here

Hi Francis,
please ensure that all the bundles are in active state after deployment.
To do so, enable OSGi console in web.xml (remove the comment from
console command line parameter) and use "ss" command to list your
bundles. Post the output of the command here.
Best,
Ivan

Ok, I found the problem.
New rap target 2.1 is not compatible with Tomcat 5.5.17
With a 6.0.32, the product works fine.

Francis,
are you using the RAP 2.1 release? There was a problem with RC2 related
to the fix for bug:
408656: HttpOnly flag for settingStore cookie
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=408656
We reverted this fix in RC3+ in order to keep compatibility with servlet
2.5 (Tomcat 5.5.17). With RAP 2.1 release your application should work
fine with Tomcat 5.5.17.
Best,
Ivan

Our demos running on a Tomcat 5.5.20. So that can't be the problem.
