Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears.
We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts. |

- Make sure the rc script creates and chowns the PID file before running
'daemon'. No need for the port to create a PID file at install time
(it would just be eaten by rc.d/cleanvar anyway).
- Use 'ps -o comm' to grab a suitable procname. 'ps -o command' is not
reliable enough.
- Bump PORTREVISION since these changes fix broken rc script operation.

Since the procname of tomcat processes may vary due to javavmwrapper,
subvert the 'check_pid_file' procname check by setting it from the output
of 'ps'.
Remove the previous attempt at handling this problem, which was to put
a wildcard in procname. I'll wear my pointy hat for that bogus hack.

Clean up Tomcat 4, 4.1, 5, and 5.5 ports.
These changes apply to all ports, unless mentioned otherwise:
- Move jakarta-tomcat55 to tomcat55 (it is no longer a Jakarta project). [6]
- Improve the tomcat55 rc script. Fix PID handling. Improve the
shutdown process. Use USE_RC_SUBR to its full potential. [2]
- Backport tomcat55 rc script to the other tomcat ports. This allows
us to pass command line arguments to the JVM. Noted in UPDATING.
[1], [3], [4]
- Change ownership of installed files. All files are now installed
with default uid/gid (root:wheel) except for those in the conf/, logs/,
temp/ and work/ directories. [5]
- No longer install tomcatXXctl binary. rc scripts are more flexible
and can be reconfigured without recompiling. (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |

Upgrade to Tomcat 4.0.6, released on 9 October 2002. From the
News & Status page:
A security vulnerability has been confirmed to exist in
Apache Tomcat 4.0.x releases (including Tomcat 4.0.5),
which allows to use a specially crafted URL to return the
unprocessed source of a JSP page, or, under special
circumstances, a static resource which would otherwise have been
protected by security constraint, without the need for being
properly authenticated. This is based on a variant of the
exploit that was disclosed on
09/24/2002.

Improved the startup script. Always displaying a space first
before the name of the application being started/stopped. The
advantage is that if there is an error, then the message will
have a space prepended instead of being appended to the previous
application name.
When the application is 'stop'ped, the error messages, if any,
are now hidden. Instead the name of the application is just
shown.

Now displaying installation settings in pre-patch phase.
Customizing files using ${SED} in post-patch phase.
Furthermore some small changes to promote consistency and
genericity. I'm attempting to make the result of
$ diff -ruN --exclude=CVS jakarta-tomcat3 jakarta-tomcat4
as small as possible.
Bumped PORTREVISION to help portupgrade in doing what it
does best ;) |
