The complete Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 documentation is available at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/prod/sjs.websrv61#hic.
The existing Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 2005Q1 SP4 documentation as published under the prior Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 collection, is valid for Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 2005Q4 SP5 and for Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4. You can access these documents at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/coll/WebServer_05q1.
These release notes contain the following sections:
Sun Java System Web Server provides the following features and enhancements:
Sun Java System Web Server includes a Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)-compliant implementation of the Java Servlet 2.3 and JavaServer Pages (JSP) 1.2 specifications. A J2EE-compliant Web container provides the flexibility and reliability needed to design and deploy Web applications that comply with Java technology standards. Web applications can be deployed on a per virtual server basis.
For information about these technologies, see the following resources:
Java Servlets at http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/index.html
JavaServer Pages at http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/index.html
For information about developing servlets and JSPs, see Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Programmer’s Guide to Web Applications.
Sun Java System Web Server supports Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SETM) 1.4. J2SE software is bundled with the Web Server and installed during installation. You can also install your own JDK at a later time, following installation of the Web Server. Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 includes JDK 1.4.1 for HP-UX and JDK 1.4.2 for other platforms.
The 64-bit Solaris SPARC release of Sun Java System Web Server requires a 64-bit JDK. On all other platforms, a 32-bit JDK is required.
Sun Java System Web Server supports Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.5 and has been tested and certified with 1.5.0_01 on Solaris, Linux and Windows platforms.
The 64-bit Solaris SPARC release of Sun Java System Web Server requires a 64-bit JDK, preferably JDK 1.5.0_06.
Sun Java System Web Server supports the Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol, which enables collaborative Web publishing with the following features:
Compliance with RFC 2518 and interoperability with RFC 2518 clients
Security and access control for Web publishing
Basic publishing operations on file-system-based WebDAV collections and resources
WebDAV provides integrated support for content meta data, name space management, and overwrite protection. These technologies, combined with the many authoring tools that support WebDAV, provide an ideal development platform for collaborative environments.
As of the 6.1 release, Sun Java System Web Server extends the Netscape Server Application Programmer's Interface (NSAPI) to support NSAPI filters.
Filters enable the custom processing of HTTP request and response streams, allowing a function to intercept and potentially modify the content presented to or generated by another function. For example, a plug-in could install an NSAPI filter to intercept an XML page generated by another plug-in's Server Application Function (SAF), then transform that XML page into an HTML, XHTML, or WAP page appropriate for the client. Alternatively, an NSAPI filter could decompress data received from a client before presenting it to another plug-in.
For more information, see Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 NSAPI Programmer’s Guide.
Sun Java System Web Server supports content compression, which allows you to increase delivery speed to clients and serve higher content volumes without incurring a corresponding increase in hardware expenses. Content compression reduces content download time, a benefit most apparent to users of dial-up and high-traffic connections.
For more information, see Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Administrator’s Guide.
Sun Java System Web Server supports a Java-based search engine that provides full-text search indexing and retrieval. The search feature allows users to search documents on the server and display results on a Web page. Server administrators create the indexes of documents against which users will search, and can customize the search interface to meet specific needs.
The default URL end-users can use to access search functionality is:
http://<server-instance >:port number/search
Example:
http://plaza:8080/search
When the end-user invokes this URL, the Search page, which is a Java Web application, is launched.
For detailed information about conducting basic and advanced searches, including information about keywords and optional query operators, see the online Help provided with the search engine. To access this information, click the Help link on the Search page. For more information, see Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Administrator’s Guide.
Sun Java System Web Server allows you to restrict access using flat file authentication. As of the 6.1 release, Sun Java System Web Server now supports the Java Security Manager. The Security Manager is disabled by default when you install the product, which may improve performance significantly for some types of applications. Enabling the Security Manager may improve security by restricting the rights granted to your J2EE Web applications. To enable the Security Manager, `uncomment' entries in the server.xml file:
<JVMOPTIONS>-Djava.security.manager</JVMOPTIONS>
<JVMOPTIONS>-Djava.security.policy=instance_dir /config/server.policy</JVMOPTIONS>
where instance_dir is the path to the installation directory of this server instance.
For more information about server.xml, see Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Administrator’s Configuration File Reference.
Sun Java System Web Server supports the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI), which provides seamless connectivity to heterogeneous enterprise naming and directory services.
Sun Java System Web Server provides out-of-the-box, seamless Java DataBase Connectivity (JDBC), and supports a wide range of industry-standard and customized JDBC drivers.
Sun Java System Web Server supports SunTM ONE Studio 5, Standard Edition. Sun ONE Studio technology is Sun's powerful, extensible, integrated development environment (IDE) for Java technology developers. Sun ONE Studio 5 is based on NetBeans software, and integrated with the Sun ONE platform. (Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 and above also supports NetBeans 3.5 and 3.5.1.)
Sun ONE Studio support is available on all platforms supported by Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5. The plug-in for the Web Server can be obtained in the following ways:
From the Companion CD in the Sun Java System Web Server Media Kit
By using the AutoUpdate feature of Sun ONE Studio
From the download center for Sun Java System Web Server at http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=3f567f91.
Please note that the Sun ONE Studio 5 plug-in for Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 works only with a local Web Server (that is, with the IDE and the Web Server on the same machine).
The behavior of the Sun ONE Studio 5 plug-in for Sun Java System Web Server is the same as that for Sun ONE Application Server 7. For information about using the Web application features in Sun ONE Studio 5, see the following tutorial at http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jsenterprise/learning/tutorials/cdshop.pdf.
Set the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 instance as the default, and then take the same actions described in the tutorial.
Also see the following NetBeans training documents at http://www.netbeans.org/kb/index.html.
For more information about Sun ONE Studio 5, visit http://www.sun.com/software/sundev/jde/.
For additional developer resources, see Additional Sun Resources in these release notes.
Sun ONE Studio 5 can be used for `remote debugging' if you want to manually attach the IDE to a remote Web Server started in debug mode. The steps are as follows:
Using the Sun Java System Web Server Administration interface, restart the server instance in debug mode (Server Manager > JVM General > Debug Enabled).
Note the JPDA port number.
Start the IDE.
Choose Debug > Start.
Select the dt_socket method, and then enter the remote machine name and the JPDA port number. At that moment, any breakpoint created in the IDE on servlet source code of a deployed application will be active.
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 supports the Active Server Pages 3.0 specification through Sun ONE Active Server Pages version 4.0.1 (formerly Sun Chili!Soft ASP) and 4.0.2. Sun ONE Active Server Pages adds a secure, enterprise-grade Active Server Pages engine to the Sun Java System Web Server.
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 provides support for Sun ONE Active Server Pages 4.0.1 and 4.0.2 on the following platforms:
SolarisTM (SPARC®) 8 and 9
Windows 2000 and XP
Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1
A license is not required for Sun ONE Active Server Pages if you are installing to the Sun Java System Web Server. The Sun ONE Active Server Pages installer is available on the Companion CD if you purchased the Sun Java System Web Server Media Kit, or by download from http://www.sun.com/software/chilisoft/index.html. Please note the following:
The Sun ONE Active Server Pages plug-in requires an additional 50 MB (approximately) of disk space after Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 is installed.
Before you begin installation, make sure you are logged in as root.
For more information about Sun ONE Active Server Pages, visit the URL listed above.
PHP, the popular page scripting language available from the PHP group (http://www.php.net), can be used with the Sun Java System Web Server using one of three supported APIs: CGI, NSAPI, and FastCGI. The PHP group provides detailed instructions on its Web site for configuring the PHP software to use any of the three supported APIs.
The CGI API is the most stable interface that can be used but will suffer from performance limitations inherent in CGI.
NSAPI utilizes the Sun Java System Web Server's native API to run the PHP software within the Web Server's memory. This configuration will provide the best performance, but risks crashing the server if non thread safe PHP modules are used.
The FastCGI interface provides a compromise between performance and stability by allowing the PHP software to remain running after serving requests while continuing to run outside of the Web Server's memory. If an unstable PHP module is used it will not cause the Web Server to crash. For this reason Sun recommends use of the FastCGI interface with the PHP software.
The FastCGI interface is supported with the Web Server via the installation of the FastCGI Add-On available from http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=3f567f91.
The PHP software makes use of two environment variables to control the life cycle of PHP processes when run as a FastCGI process. PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN determines the number of PHP processes that will be created to respond to requests. PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS determines the number of requests a PHP process can respond to before terminating itself and being replaced with a new PHP process. Sun recommends against the use of PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN and recommends instead the FastCGI Add-On configuration parameter min-procs to control the minimum number of PHP processes.
The version of NSS included in Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 has been upgraded from 3.9.5 (in version 6.1 SP4) to 3.10.1.0 (32-bit) and 3.11 (64-bit). NSS is a set of libraries designed to support cross-platform development of security-enabled server applications. Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 also includes NSPR 4.5.2.
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5 provides hardware accelerator support for Sun Crypto Accelerator 4000, a cryptographic accelerator board that enhances the performance of SSL on the Web Server.
As of Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP5, a new 64-bit Solaris SPARC release is introduced to complement the existing 32-bit Solaris SPARC release. Sun encourages administrators to continue to deploy the 32-bit release of Sun Java System Web Server. The 64-bit release may be of use in certain memory-intensive deployments as it enables administrators to configure a larger file cache and Java heap than the 32-bit release. However, existing plug-ins are not compatible with the 64-bit release; these plug-ins will need to be recompiled for the 64-bit release by the plug-in vendor. Java web applications that use native, non-Java libraries will also need to be recompiled.
The 64-bit release is compatible with 64-bit Solaris kernels on UltraSPARC processors. The 64-bit release cannot be used on x86 processors or with 32-bit Solaris kernels. The 32-bit release continues to be compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit Solaris kernels.
Note that the 64-bit and 32-bit releases of Sun Java System Web Server are packaged and distributed separately. It is not possible to upgrade an existing 32-bit Sun Java System Web Server installation to a 64-bit installation. It is possible to distinguish the 32-bit and 64-bit releases by the version string that is displayed in the installer, at server startup, and in the server errors log as follows:
Release |
Version String |
32–bit |
Sun ONE Web Server 6.1SP5 |
64-bit |
Sun ONE Web Server 6.1SP5 (64-Bit) |
For Web Server's SSL subsystem (NSS) to use external PKCS#11 token(s), you need to configure NSS with the modutil command to make it aware of the token(s). The Solaris libpkcs11 softtoken is a PKCS#11 compliant token which can be used with NSS. As an additional benefit on UltraSPARC-T1, systems using Solaris 10's libpkcs11 will make use of the platform crypto acceleration support.
Before using the libpkcs11 provider, initialize its password with pktool:
% pktool setpin
Run the modutil command without any arguments for usage information. For example, to add the Solaris 10 libpkcs11 library as a PKCS11 token in NSS,
Ensure that SSL support has been initialized for the Web Server instance(s). This can be done through the Admin GUI.
Run the following command:
% modutil -dbdir $ALIASDIR -dbprefix $PREFIX -add libpkcs -libfile /usr/lib/libpkcs11.so -mechanisms RSA where,
$ALIASDIR is the path to the alias directory in the install root where the NSS db files are located.
$PREFIX is the prefix used by the key3/cer8 db files in the alias directory and is of the form https-$INSTANCENAME-.
Note the -mechanisms flag which makes this token the preferred initial provider for the given algorithms.
Run the modutil command without any arguments for a list of all possible mechanisms from which to choose.
For further details on configuring NSS, see manpages and references:

LDAP: Improve LDAP dynamic group performance for ACL's. For performance reason, a new LDAP config parameter, `dyngroups fast' is introduced for SP2. With this config, Web Server will make assertion about group membership bypassing nested individuals among dynamic groups. For example, assuming that user `alpha' belongs to group `a', group `a' is a member of group `b' by group `b' memberURL definition (dynamic group), and your ACL only grants group `b' access. In such case, Web Server will deny access from `alpha' because `alpha' is not regarded as member of group `b'. If you want to support nested group in such case, don't define this new config for LDAP authentication service (you won't get performance gain consequently.) Sample config: directory: ldapregular ldap://localhost:389/o=TestCentral ldapregular: dyngroups fast |

Unable to specify protocol for URL in generated redirects. The server generates a self-referencing URL whenever it sends a redirect to a client. As of Web Server 6.1 SP1, the servername attribute of the LS element in server.xml can be used to configure the scheme used in server-generated self-referencing URLs. For example, if an SSL offloader sits between the Internet and the Web Server instance, decrypting SSL-encrypted traffic for www.sun.com and relaying it to the Web Server on port 8080, an LS element such as the following could appear in server.xml: <LS remap="ls1" port="8080" security="disabled"...servername="https://www.sun.com"/> The `https://' prefix in the servername value instructs the server to use the https scheme in self-referencing URLs even though the LS is not configured to handle SSL traffic. |

Problem ID |
Description |
---|---|
5060906 |
Authorization dialog pops up for an unprotected directory without index file. Additional information: As for 6.1 SP1, if a directory does not have an index file such as index.html, index.jsp, home.html, etc, then while turning on ACL authentication anyone with read and write permission are denied the list access even though this directory is unprotected. Workaround: To revert back to the previous behavior of 6.1, change the default ACL so that anonymous users are allowed list privileges. Make the changes as follows: allow (read, execute, info, list) user = "anyone" |
4642650 |
Option needed to disable appending of absolute URL in servlet/JSP container. Fix details: New property added to sun-web.xml: relativeRedirectAllowed Default value: false Description: If true, allows the Web application to send a relative URL to the client using the HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect() API (that is, it suppresses the container from translating a relative URL to a fully qualified URL). |

The Author, Subject, and Keywords meta tags are always indexed. Functionality has been added that now allows arbitrary meta tags to be indexed, including those produced when converting the FTS_* attributes from PDF files. Manual configuration of a new setting in server.xml is required, as described below.
Note – See issue 4956415 in the Search section for details about displaying custom meta tag information in search results. |

6197731 |
Internal Error on accessing Admin Server. Workaround: If Web Server 6.1 SP4 is installed on a Windows machine which has Directory Server (versions 5.2 patch 3 or lower) installed, you may run into problems with the Web Server Admin Server. It is advisable to install the Web Server and Directory Server on separate machines to avoid issues. This issue is applicable only on Windows platforms. |

Problem using HttpServerAdmin to create a JNDI resource containing an LDAP DN containing commas. Workaround: For HttpServerAdmin to escape the `,' in the property use `\\' as escape character (and use `\' in Windows platforms). In the property java.naming.provider.url=ldap://localhost:389/ou=loggingQueues,ou=tms,ou=services,ou=abc the `,' are escaped as shown here: -property java.naming.provider.url=ldap://localhost:389/ou=loggingQueues\\,ou=tms\\,ou=services\\,ou=abc |

When distributed Admin is enabled, the local Admin user becomes disabled Workaround: Create a user with the default Admin user name within the distributed Admin group. Note that the newly created LDAP Admin user must have the same password as the Web Server Admin user. |
|
4725683 |
The date stamp in the log filename is not consistent with the date stamp in the log file entries. Workaround: If the date in the log filename extension should match the date of the log entries themselves, configure the server to rotate the log files at 23:59, the end of the day. |
|
4761960 |
In Version 6.0 SP4, cannot enable distributed Admin when using SASL and anonymous bind. Workaround: Do not use anonymous bind to SSL enabled directory server. |
|
4841310 |
Can't get REMOTE_USER variable when authenticated by .htaccess. Workaround: If you enable .htaccess files, the server checks for .htaccess files before serving resources. The server looks for .htaccess files in the same directory as the resource and in that directory's parent directories, up to and including the document root. For example, if the Primary Document Directory is set to /sun/server/docs and a client requests /sun/server/docs/reports/index.html, the server will check for .htaccess files at /sun/server/docs/reports/.htaccess and /sun/server/docs/.htaccess. Note that the server's Additional Document Directories and CGI Directory functionality allows an administrator to define alternate document roots. The existence of alternate document roots affects .htaccess file processing. For example, consider a server with the Primary Document Directory set to /sun/server/docs and a CGI program at /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin/program.cgi. If you enable CGI as a File Type, the server will evaluate the contents of both /sun/server/docs/.htaccess and /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin/.htaccess when a client issues a request for the CGI program. However, if you instead configure a CGI Directory at /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin, the server will inspect /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin/.htaccess but not /sun/server/docs/.htaccess. This occurs because specifying /sun/server/docs/cgi-bin as a CGI Directory marks it as an alternate document root. |
|
4865295 |
The End User Administration feature (under Distributed Administration in the Administration interface) is no longer supported. |
|
4882999 |
Inconsistent look and feel to the pages in the Admin GUI. |
|
4888696 |
The Add Server page in the Admin GUI disappears in Netscape 7.0 when insufficient information is entered. Workaround: Enter complete information on the Add Server page before clicking OK. If necessary, reload the page to restore the Add Server GUI, or click another page or another tab and then navigate back to the Add Server page. This problem occurs only in Netscape 7.0. |
|
4910309 |
The word `null' is incorrectly displayed on an alert message. This displays when editing directory services in the Pick Directory for Virtual Server page in the Virtual Server Manager. |
|
4905808 |
Super users cannot access the Administration interface after enabling distributed administration. Workaround: After enabling distributed administration, create a user in LDAP with the same administration user name and password as that of `superuser'. |
|
4908694 |
Default link not working for logging settings. The Default link on the Logging Settings for Virtual Server page does not set the default path, but rather acts as a reset button. |
|
4910197 |
When editing a JDBC resource, the properties page retains values after they’ve been deleted. |
|
4911552 |
.shtml files are parsed when they shouldn’t be. This issue pertains to the Parse HTML page on the Content Management tab in the Class Manager. The .shtml files will be parsed even when settings on this page are configured so that they shouldn’t be. For example, if you specify `Yes', with a exec tag and `All HTML files', .shtml files will still also be parsed. |

No ID |
The sun-web.xml file bundled with the Web Server points to the wrong DTD location. Correction: The correct location is http://www.sun.com/software/dtd/appserver/sun-web-app_2_3-1.dtd. |
|
6284698 |
Web Server not operational when installed as non root user. Workaround: Start the Web Server instance from the command line instead of using the Web Admin console. |
|
6078104 |
JSP applications are not accessible from WS6.1 when passthrough plug-in is configured. Workaround: Change the line from the service directive of passthrough: From: Service type="magnus-internal/passthrough" fn="service-passthrough"servers="http://server:port" To: Service fn="service-passthrough" servers="http://server:port" |
|

Cannot get REMOTE_USER variable when authenticated by .htaccess. Workaround: If you enable .htaccess files, the server checks for .htaccess files before serving resources. The server looks for .htaccess files in the same directory as the resource and in that directory's parent directories, up to and including the document root. For example, if the Primary Document Directory is set to /sun/server/docs and a client requests /sun/server/docs/reports/index.html, the server will check for .htaccess files at /sun/server/docs/reports/.htaccess and /sun/server/docs/.htaccess. Note that the server's Additional Document Directories and CGI Directory functionality allows an administrator to define alternate document roots.

6173272 |
Administrator's Guide incorrectly documents the supported version of Java as `1.4.1_03'. Correction: Sun Java System Web Server supports Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.4.2_04 and greater (32-bit only; 64-bit is not supported). J2SE software is bundled with the Web Server and installed during installation, if you choose to install it. You can also install your own JDK at a later time, following installation of the Web Server. If you plan to use the Administration server, a JDK must be installed. |
5016571 |
Online Help page under Generic Thread Pools gives invalid information. |
5029460 |
Administrator's Guide documents an incorrect certmap.conf configuration. The description of certmap.conf in the guide contains the following text: The first line specifies a name for the entry and the attributes that form the distinguished name found in the CA certificate. The name is arbitrary; you can define it to be whatever you want. However, issuerDN must exactly match the issuer DN of the CA who issued the client certificate. For example, the following two issuerDN lines differ only in the spaces separating the attributes, but the server treats these two entries as different: certmap sun1 ou=Sun Certificate Authority,o=Sun, c=UScertmap sun2 ou=Sun Certificate Authority,o=Sun, c=US Correction: The two lines should be read as follows: certmap sun1 ou=Sun Certificate Authority,o=Sun, c=UScertmap sun2 ou=Sun Certificate Authority, o=Sun, c=US |

5002190 |
Administrator's Guide doesn't contain information about the htpasswd command utility. Additional Information: The htpasswd command is used to generate or modify a password file suitable for use with the htaccess access control mechanism. htpasswd Usage: htpasswd [-c] passwordfile username [password] -c creates a new password file. As noted, -c creates a new password file by overwriting an old one if it already exists. Without -c, the command will modify the existing file by either updating the user's password (if user already exists) or adding a new user with the given name. If the optional password argument is not given, it will prompt interactively for the password to assign. Note that htaccess is not the preferred access control mechanism in Web Server. Wherever possible, use ACLs instead. |
5002192 |
Administrator's Configuration File Reference has incorrect information about the loglevel attribute. Correction: The loglevel description should be read as follows: Controls the default type of messages logged by other elements to the error log. Allowed values are as follows, from highest to lowest: finest, finer, fine, info, warning, failure, config, security, and catastrophe. |

6067318 |
Administrator's Configuration File Reference has insufficient information about the set-variable error parameter. Correction: The description of the set-variable error parameter should be read as follows: Sets the HTTP status code and aborts the request by returning REQ_ABORTED. To set the HTTP status code without aborting the request, use the set-variable error parameter along with the noaction parameter. To rewrite an HTTP status code, use a <Client> tag to match the original status code and an Output directive to set the new status code. For example, the following would rewrite all 302 Moved Temporarily responses to 301 Moved Permanently responses: <Client code="302">Output fn="set-variable" error="301 Moved Permanently" noaction="true"</Client> |

In some circumstances, the `list' right has no effect on directory listing. According to Chapter 9 of the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Administrator’s Guide, the `list' right is required to obtain directory listings from directories that do not contain an index file. However, in certain circumstances it is possible to obtain a directory listing, even if the applicable ACLs deny the list right. For this reason, if you need to restrict directory indexing, it is recommended that you do so by disabling indexing, as discussed in Chapter 16 of the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Administrator’s Guide, instead of (or in addition to) denying the list right. |

On Linux, a null pointer exception is thrown when deploying an application using the wdeploy command-line utility. This happens at the end of the deploy, and only if it succeeds. Workaround: The error seems to occur when wdeploy reads the stdout/stderr after execution of the reconfigure script following the deploy. The reconfigure should go through, but you should check to see if the server did indeed reconfigure by looking in the errors log for the reconfigure message. If the message is not there, then run the reconfigure script manually. |
