I have my java web service up and running, and I am deploying it to Tomcat. However, when Tomcat starts up, the deployment is failing with the following exception:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServletContextListener
I am told that Tomcat should have everything it needs, but that is clearly referring to Tomcat 5 and not Tomcat 6.

In my last blog on this, I discussed some of the Capacity best practices. I am now going to briefly touch on the remainder of the book:

In my last blog I discussed some of the capacity anti-patterns of Michael Nyguard’s excellent but tragically misnamed book “Release It!” I finished reading the patterns and best practices portion, some of which are discussed below:

I am 110 pages into Michael Nygard’s “Release It!”. I ignored this book earlier because I pictured some namby, pamby book on release best practices, but this book is absolutely fantastic and fascinating to read!
The book focuses on anti-patterns then best practices for stability then capacity in production systems (typically focusing on web commerce). After [...]

I finally finished this book and summarized it in Evernote. As much as I would like to share those notes, it wouldn’t be fair to the author.
I read some of the comments on Amazon, with one person complaining about the book not being meaty enough for the price. I paid $4.99 to buy this as [...]
