missing jsp file

Hi

I've set up chemistry searching on a MySQL database as a test and deployed the example web search pages under my tomcat installation (this is on linux).

The chemistry searching works ok (well similarity searching is a bit weird but does at least return results), but I keep on getting a file not found message in catalina.out.

Is setup.jsp necessary?

Hi Ceara,

setup.jsp is part of the db_search example in the JChem distribution. You can set the database connection parameters and some global options for the searching with this tool, but it is not necessary for the searching. Please check if the file is existing in your JChem distribution. The path is: examples/db_search/setup.jsp

See the documentation: http://www.chemaxon.com/jchem/examples/db_search/setup.html class="postbody">

Hi,

 

Actually the ".jchemsite" file is missing, not setup.jsp.

We will modify the message to something like this:

File not found: "/home/cr86686/.chemaxon/.jchemsite". Please open "setup.jsp" in your browser.

This file stores the connection parameters for the JSP example.

We provide setup.jsp, so one can specify these parameteres without modifying the code.

setup.jsp creates .jchemsite at the listed path.

Here is the relevant part of init.jsp:

 

try {
    props.load(new FileInputStream(propsFname));
} catch(FileNotFoundException exc) {     
           System.err.println("File not found "+propsFname+" open setup.jsp.");
} catch(IOException exc) {
        System.err.println("Cannot read properties file "+propsFname);
}
String local_driver=props.getProperty("driver");
String local_url=props.getProperty("url");
String local_username=props.getProperty("username");
String local_password=props.getProperty("password");
String local_propertyTableName=props.getProperty("propertyTableName");

Since the example works for you I assume you have modified the code, and parameters set via setup.jsp may not have effect.

If you prefer hard-coding all parameters then you may remove the part which tries to read from .jchemsite and complains.

Alternatively you may undo those changes, visit setup.jsp and specify the connection parameters and other options there (recommended). This creates the .jchemsite file.

 

Best regards,

Szilard

 

Ok, I understand - I was just worried that the missing file (or directory) might cause problems.

As I said the searching is working fine, and yes I do have the setup.jsp file in the examples directory.

Many thanks
