delete file from jetty server using java 7 - java

I am working on web application which is running on jetty server.
In this application I am uploading and image and use this image in my jsp page.
Now when I want to delete it using
Files.delete(File Path)
It gives me error
java.nio.file.FileSystemException: "File Path": The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

Close all streams associated with that file before you attempt to delete it. Consider also the use of try-with-resources with the file you're uploading to.

On Windows Jetty is locking static files it serves via default servlet. It is a common issue. It has something to do with caching. See wiki:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Howto/Deal_with_Locked_Windows_Files
You need to switch useFileMappedBuffer to false.

is there an updatable configuration file for usage in apache tomcat web application?

I'm creating a REST API using Jersey and deploying on apache tomcat.
if i put a properties file on the resources folder it is readable but not writeable.
i need a configuration file which can be read from and could be edited without running tomcat all over again. stuff like DB host, port and other stuff.
thanks
Why do you even wanna do that? Changing property file will end up in performance bottleneck as writting and reading a file involves IO operation. Why not use database to persist and change things?

Get JDBC connection working in play framework (java)

Was wondering, what steps am I missing to get a jdbc embeded h2 database working in my play application? Following these docs.
So far editted Application.conf file to contain this:
db.default.driver=org.h2.Driver
db.default.url="jdbc:h2:databases/test"
db.default.user=test
db.default.password="testtest"
Next I created a libs directory and added the jar file
h2-1.3.174.jar
Is this necessary or does the provided driver handle all types of h2 databases (embeded and server - I know it handles in memory)?
Now in the controler how can I access the database? Do I have to start/shutdown the database?
I know I can get connections from the getConnection() method in play.db. But everytime I execute a statement through this connection I get an exception saying no data is available. If I then check - looks like directory
databases/test
was not created so no database files exist.
What am I missing?
H2 works out of the box. Just create a new project in the terminal.
Otherwise, to your listing:
I think you should change db.default.url="jdbc:h2:databases/test" to db.default.url="jdbc:h2:mem:play"
don't need to create lib directories. It's all handeled by the build in dependency mgmt sbt
Just use the model objects and call save/update. No need to call start/shutdown
you are in a framework, it's all there ready for you...
I think you should start reading the documentation from the beginning to the end and examine the example applications. It's all there what you are looking for.
In addition to myborobudur's answer I'll only mention, that you don't need to use memory database, as you can for an instance use file storage (Embedded) or even run H2 as a server and then connect to it with TCP in Server Mode... Everything is clearly described in H2 documentation.

How run java web strat application with hsql and glassfish?

I have java program with main function, that packaged into jar archive. There is dao class with DataSource. An jdbc url to data file is expected an is passed as argument to main function. Everything works as standalone application, but how I must link jar file with database when they both in glassfish? For example, I put jnlp into glassfish docroot directory, and put HSQL database file with populated data too. Whta link I must pass tho that database? If I simple replace
"C:\path"
with
"http://localhost:8080\path_inside_docroot_folder"
I get EOFException in java when it tryies to read a file.
Off topic:
Also it very strange, when I created hsql database I write something like this:
jdbc:hsqldb:C:\\path\db_file.dat
But actually in the path there is no exactly db_file.dat. There are several files, like:
db_sile.dat.tmp
db_sile.dat.lck
db_sile.dat.log
db_sile.dat.properties
db_sile.dat.scrip
Can anyone solve my problem? May files mentioned upper influence to the problem or it is pure glassfish deploy problem?
If something unclear ask me.
The answer is you can not run HSQL inside as static resource glassfish. You can run HSQL server as HTTP server or as servlet if you deploy web application. The solution for my problem is to put JNDI file and java jar file as static resources in glassfish and run HSQL server in the same computer (where glassfish is running).

write and read file on web service (axis2 + tomcat 7)

I'm writing a service for Axis2 + Tomcat7.0 with Java for the application. I've chosen to write any information to xml file, the problem is where is the root of the service/application server?
I read the other question but isn't response good.
How can I get an absolute path to the writable directory by the service?
I would set an environment variable and then read the value of it by using System.getProperty().
I think the default file writing location is wherever you are when you start the server, at least that's what I found with JBoss one time. The easiest thing is to either set an environment variable in a server property file, or create a property file for your service to use to retrieve the location. I've done it both ways with JBoss in windows and unix.

how to make my files present in a tomcat server to the browser

I have installed Tomcat 5.0 in order to execute a web application. How can I show my files which are present in Tomcat to the web browser? I tried http://hostname:8080/myfolder/login.html, but I can't see the files.
One more thing I know about JDBC and other database connectivity and I have developed a HTML page. How can I let a button in the page execute the code written in a Servlet and perform validations?
The simplest thing is to add to the root webapp. That is webapps/ROOT. Any file you put in there will be served unless you change the default configuration.
You should read about the details, of course.
I have installed Tomcat 5.0 in order to execute a web application.
First of all, why are you using the ancient (8 year old) Tomcat 5.0? If you can, rather grab the latest one, Tomcat 6.0.
How can I show my files which are present in Tomcat to the web browser? I tried http://hostname:8080/myfolder/login.html, but I can't see the files.
Is myfolder the context name or just a folder in your webcontent? If it's a context name, then you need to ensure that it's properly deployed. You can find details in the server logs in the /logs folder. If it is a folder in your webcontent and the webapplication is thus supposedly to be the "root" application, then you need to ensure that it's deployed as ROOT.
To learn more about using Tomcat, go through the documentation.
One more thing I know about JDBC and other database connectivity and I have developed a HTML page. How can I let a button in the page execute the code written in a Servlet and perform validations?
To the point, just create a class which extends HttpServlet, implement the doPost() method, define the servlet in web.xml and let the action attribute of the HTML <form> element point to an URL which is covered by the url-pattern of the servlet mapping in the web.xml.
As the question is pretty broad, I have the impression that you haven't learned in any way how to work with Tomcat and JSP/Servlets. I would strongly recommend to go through those tutorials to familarize yourself with JSP/Servlet on Tomcat and Eclipse (an IDE) first: Beginning and Intermediate-Level Servlet, JSP, and JDBC Tutorials
Tomcat is not a web server like, say, Apache. It's a servlet container. You can not just move file in a subfolder which seem to be what you did. You need to pack your web application in a .war and deploy it.
The URL should rather be http://host:8080/webapp/subfolder/login.jsp
Without much information it's hard to help. Please edit your question and describe what you've done so far.
