Tika server ROOT directory - apache-tika

How can I find the location of the tika server ROOT directory that hosts the html welcome page for the Apache Tika 1.x-SNAPSHOT Server? For example, say that maven built tika in file:///opt/tika-trunk/tika-server/target/classes/org/apache/tika/server/ , so in this path there exist all the classes that maven created. But where is the server root directory and the folder structure that someone would expect, like where is the /detectors folder? where is the /mime-types folder etc.? I am sure missing something important here, so I wish you could give me a hint...
Thanks

How to set log4j.property to .jar location

I'm Setting up Log4j2 in a Spring-boot application. I now want to create a /log directory exactly where the .jar file is located.
This is needed as we start the java application from a startup script and the configuration should work on both windows and unix developer machines as well as a server.
I already tried with:
<RollingFile name="FileAppender" fileName="./logs/mylog.log"
filePattern="logs/mylog-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log">
which just creates a log folder at the directory where the jar gets started.
then I read i should use .\log/mylog.log as .\ points to the directory of the jar file.
But then it just creates a folder called .\log.
I also tried with configuration with jvm arguments and calling them at the log4j2.xml with: ${logFile}. Now a directory gets created called '${logFile}.
The only ${} command working is the directory of the log4j configuration file. But as this is inside the jar it just gets me a pretty useless folder structure
Thanks in Advance
EDIT: In the End what I did was setting up two configuration files, log4j2.xml and log4j2-prod.xml
The log4j2.xml took the system property as Vikas Sachdeva mentioned, while the prod.xml got the location hard coded.
Not really the solution I was looking for but made it work.
One solution is to pass log directory location through system properties.
Configuration file will look like -
<RollingFile name="FileAppender" fileName="${sys:basePath}/mylog.log"
filePattern="${sys:basePath}/mylog-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log">
Now, pass VM argument basePath with absolute path of directory containing JAR file -
java -jar myapp.jar -DbasePath=/home/ubuntu/app

How to make dockerfile and .conf file are not accessible direct through url

How to make dockerfile and .conf file are not accessible direct
through url
Look this url
http://localhost/dockerfile
http://localhost/nginx.conf
If I Open this url this files are downloadable which should be not. How can i prevent this?
You can use a .dockerignore file to avoid sending files to your container. See docs here for things like your Dockerfile.
To exclude config files and others that you need in your container from being served, you would do this via your web server config. E.g., for nginx:
location ~ (\.conf$|Dockerfile) {
return 403;
}
As a best practice, you might want to structure your project so the Dockerfile root isn't the same as your web root, similar as to how would (should) structure a non-Dockerized app.

creating a config file in grails

I am attempting to get a Grails project working but need help setting it up. I have an Ubuntu server running on a VM that has Redis installed. The project won't run unless I create a config file that can use Redis on the Ubuntu server. This is the settings I pulled down from GitHub located in the grails-app/conf/Config.groovy file.

I was told I need to create a separate config file that will override these parameters so my project will talk to the ubuntu server on my machine. This is a noob question but where do I create a config file? I can't seem to find a .grails folder. I know I'm suppose to reference my config file, once i've created one, in the grails-app/conf/Config.groovy file
http://snag.gy/SpGGt.jpg
Look at the grails.config.locations specified in your Config.grooy and you can create any of those locations for creating the external Config file.
I prefer using the classpath route. Here is what I would do.
Create a folder (say appConfig) and place it in the tomcat/conf folder.
Add the application config file (proghorn-config.groovy in your case) to the folder, with the required configurations in the file.
Add the folder to the Tomcat classpath by updating either the tomcat/conf/catalina.properties or by creating the tomcat/bin/setenv.sh
The location of the .grails folder depends upon the user account running the container (Tomcat, Jetty, etc.) which hosts your Grails application.
For example on Debian 6 running Tomcat 6.x the location is:
/usr/share/tomcat6/.grails/
You can also use static paths as well:
file:/usr/local/tomcat/conf/myspecific-config.groovy

Ruby on Rails: FileUtils relative to server root?

When using PHP, any file manipulation is done relative to the server root, so something like mkdir("/home/website/public_html/a_directory would be used to create a directory in the public_html folder where the script is executed from.
In Rails, using the FileUtils module, it is relative to the Application's path like FileUtils.mkdir('public/a_directory') which will create a folder in the public folder of the application.
The problem I face is that from my Application, I would like to be able to create directories, move files, rename files/folders and remove file/folders relative to the server's root.
What's the best way to achieve this? OR am I missing something obvious?
Thanks,
Stefan
You can use absolute paths in FileUtil:
FileUtil.mkdir('/tmp/foo')
will create the directory foo in then servers /tmp/ directory.
Rail.root holds the root of your rails application.
You can extend the path like Rails.root.join('public','a_directory').
Remember that the DOCUMENT ROOT is Rails.root.join('public')

Grails Config: include another config file

I have in my main config something like:
grails.config.locations = ["file:grails-app/config/Jawr.groovy"].
When running the application with grails run-app, everything is OK.
But, on deployment (creating the war archive) this does not work anymore, as the file "Jawr.groovy" is not kept anymore on the filesystem (it should be only in the war).
Do you have a solution for that? Hw do you include external files into the grails main configuration file?
Thanks.
Okay, a few things here.
First, because you don't have a leading slash on your config path, that is a path relative to who knows where. I played with this in Tomcat, and that path ends up being relative to the working directory you were in when starting the Tomcat server. If you start Tomcat, shut it down, change directories, then start it again, you are going to get two different config paths.
Second, the grails-app directory only exists within the source tree of your Grails project. The structure of an unpacked WAR file is more like the web-app folder of your Grails source tree, with folders like WEB-INF, META-INF, js, images, etc.
Third, you probably want to avoid putting your externalized config file inside the folder of your webapp. The next time you deploy your app, that configuration is going to get wiped away with the old version of the app. One of the points of the externalized config is so that you can redeploy without having to reconfigure.
A simple, but less than ideal, solution would be to use a static, fully qualified path, like /etc/yourApp/conf.groovy, then put that in the documentation. There is also a plug-in that handles this.
http://www.grails.org/plugin/external-config
I haven't used it, but the description makes it sound like it does sensible things.
see this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6341117/is-it-possible-that-grails-xxconfig-groovy-as-a-script-no-compile
Then I put it into /shared, and
modify:
//Config.groovy
grails.config.locations =
["file:shared/TZLibConfig.groovy"]
//BuildConfig.groovy
grails.war.resources = { stagingDir, args ->
copy(todir: "${stagingDir}/WEB-INF/shared"){
fileset(dir:"shared",includes:"**")
}
}
In my work, our team often use a system properties to save the path to the config file (often in home folder of the user running the app - for privilege sake). Then we manually copy the config file into that path
To identify that it's the production environment, we use the following code in Config.groovy:
if (System.properties["${appName}.config.location"]) {
grails.config.locations = ["file:" + System.properties["${appName}.config.location"]]
}
This article suggests allowing the user to specify the location of the config file as an environment variable or as a java property --- meaning you can simply specify it with -D on the command-line. This can be used in addition to all the other methods.
