Jetty can't find web application file

I've installed jetty using PKGBUILD from AUR. The configuration was left default.

Note: since makepkg was unable to download jetty v.9.3.2 from offical site, I downloaded it from maven repository

The problem is that when I try to deploy my web application using Jetty Deployable Descriptor XML File, jetty fails to find the war with the following exception:

2016-01-27 17:05:30.265:WARN:oejw.WebInfConfiguration:main: Web application not found /home/pmitrofanov/sample.war
2016-01-27 17:05:30.265:WARN:oejw.WebAppContext:main: Failed startup of context o.e.j.w.WebAppContext@1efbd816{/sample,null,null}{/home/pmitrofanov/sample.war}

Here is the contents of the xml:

<?xml version="1.0"  encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Jetty//Configure//EN" "http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure.dtd">
<Configure class="org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext">
    <Set name="contextPath">/sample</Set>
    <Set name="war">/home/pmitrofanov/sample.war</Set>
    <!-- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -->
    <!-- Max Form Size                                                   -->
    <!-- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -->
    <Set name="maxFormContentSize">5000000</Set>
</Configure>

It should be mentioned that:

  1. When I manually put the war into the webapps directory instead of using xml, everything goes fine.
  2. All users have rwx access to the war: -rwxrwxrwx 1 pmitrofanov pmitrofanov 25104375 Jan 27 16:37 /home/pmitrofanov/sample.war
Solution

  • The problem is that nobody except the owner has read+execute access to /home/pmitrofanov directory.
