tomcat 4 strangeness....?
Hi, I have two servers -- one running tomcat 4.1.10 with SuSE 8 and the other running tomcat 4.0.3 on RH 7.3. I am seeing a strange thing with my java apps being served up on SuSE and I really want to make SuSE the production platform, so I am hoping I can get some help. Does anyone know of issues in 4.1 of tomcat vs 4.0? Is there an issue with SuSE? Is anything fixed in 8.1 of SuSE? The problem is fairly simple -- on a secure link of tomcat, certain web pages get served up with part of previous pages. In other words, as you cycle through (and this is all java, no apache, just tomcat serving java and xml) pages, some of the pages bring up old pieces of previous pages. If I restart tomcat, it fixes itself for a while. The strange part is, on the lower version of RH and Tomcat, it does not occur. I just don't want to start down grading haphazardly until I get a better handle on it. And no, there is nothing in any of the jakarta logs to indicate an error. thanks Kat
There has been several listings of problems/exploits in the tomcat versions you are using as far back as July (maybe further back) in the bugtraq mailing list. You might want to update your versions (to 4.0.5, and 4.1.12). : -----Original Message----- : From: kathee [mailto:kat@ezunx.com] : Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 8:27 PM : To: suse-linux-e@suse.com : Subject: [SLE] tomcat 4 strangeness....? : : : Hi, : : I have two servers -- one running tomcat 4.1.10 with SuSE 8 and the : other running tomcat 4.0.3 on RH 7.3.
