Servoy Forum

Hi, we are migrating the Servoy's versione from 5.2.18 to 2019.
The solution works "well" but i am not able to use the Velocity plugin. On my developer the plugin (version 3.5.67) works perfectly and if i call for example the URL "http://127.0.0.1:8080/eastwood/genbc?type=code39&fmt=png&msg=7-8B5334-2&res=384&hrsize=8pt&hrfont=Arial,Helvetica,Sans-serif&height=0.896cm" i get the image.
When i deploy my solution on the server (the plugin is installed correctly, i think) i can't use the plugin.. if i call the URL "http://<SERVER_IP>:8080/eastwood/genbc?type=code39&fmt=png&msg=7-8B5334-2&res=384&hrsize=8pt&hrfont=Arial,Helvetica,Sans-serif&height=0.896cm" return a 404 error. (Look the attached)
Am i doing something wrong?

PS: The situation doesn't change if i call "http://<SERVER_IP>:8080/eastwood/"

Thanks

Hi,

I suspect that the problem is the way tomcat handles the import.
Can you launch your solution or servoy-admin page and check what the url looks like?
Most likely it does have an additional 'context' name in the url and you need to modify the url as this:
http://<SERVER_IP>:8080/<SOLUTIONNAME>/eastwood/genbc?type=code39&fmt=png&msg=7-8B5334-2&res=384&hrsize=8pt&hrfont=Arial,Helvetica,Sans-serif&height=0.896cm

Hope that helps.

I haven't tested Tomcat 8.5.9 but there shouldn't be any problem.

Did you deploy the eastwood.war in /Tomcat/webapps/ ?
Does it look like the eastwood.war is loaded in the Tomcat manager?

The "http://<SERVER_IP>:8080/eastwood/genbc?type=code39&fmt=png&msg=7-8B5334-2&res=384&hrsize=8pt&hrfont=Arial,Helvetica,Sans-serif&height=0.896cm" URL looks correct to me (eastwood being it's own war, the context in this case is really "eastwood", not SOLUTIONNAME, Marc!)

Hi,
we solved the problem modifing the file "web.xml" inside the package eastood.war
The problem comes with the last Tomcat version.
Sobstitute the old header with the code below and it will works fine.
