Web applications
update Correct Deployer, Manager and Context pages of Tomcat documentation. (kkolinko)
jdbc-pool
fix 52318: Version for imported package org.apache.juli.logging is extended to include also 7.0.x versions. The fix is applicable only when running in OSGi environment. Patch provided by Martin Lichtin. (violetagg)

Other
fix Update to Apache Commons Daemon 1.0.14 to resolve 54609 which meant that installation of Windows service could fail producing incorrect service launch command. (mturk)
fix Ensure HEAD requests return the correct content length when the requested resource uses a Writer. Patch by Nick Williams. (markt)
Tomcat 7.0.38 (markt)not released
Catalina
fix Ensure that the request start time (used by the access log valve to calculate request processing time) is correctly recorded for the HTTP NIO connector. In some cases the request processing time may have been longer than that recorded. (markt)
update Add one more library from JDK 7 to the value of jarsToSkip property in the catalina.properties file. (kkolinko)
add 53871: If annotation scanning results in a StackOverflowError due to broken class dependencies, add the class hierarchy that triggered the exception to the error message. (markt)

update Provide more consolidated servlet MBean data in the webapp MBean. (rjung)
fix 54584: Take account of the delegate attribute when building the web application class path to pass to the JSP compiler. (markt)
fix Copy the updated and re-packaged UTF-8 decoder from Tomcat 8.0.x and use this improved decoder for WebSocket connections. Remove the WebSocket specific UTF-8 decoder. (markt)
fix 54602: Recycle the byte to character converter used for URIs between requests to ensure an error in one request does not trigger a failure in the next request. (markt)
fix Use the newly added improved UTF-8 decoder for decoding UTF-8 encoded URIs and UTF-8 encoded request bodies. Invalid UTF-8 URIs will not cause an error but will make use of the replacement character when an error is detected. This will allow web applications to handle the URI which will most likely result in a 404 response. The fall-back to decoding with ISO-8859-1 if UTF-8 decoding fails has been removed. Invalid UTF-8 sequences in a request body will trigger an IOException. The way the decoder is used has also been improved. The notable change is that invalid sequences at the end of the input now trigger an error rather than being silently swallowed. (markt)
fix 54624: Ensure that the correct request body length is used when swallowing a request body after FORM authentication prior to restoring the original request preventing possible hanging when restoring POST requests submitted over AJP. (markt)
fix 54628: When writing binary WebSocket messages write from start position in array rather than the start of the array. Patch provided by blee. (markt)

Catalina
fix 54521: Ensure that concurrent requests that require a DIGEST authentication challenge receive different nonce values. (markt)
fix 54534: Ensure that, if a call to StandardWrapper#isSingleThreadModel() triggers the loading of a Servlet, the correct class loader is used. (markt)

Coyote
fix 54456: Ensure that if a client aborts a request when sending a chunked request body that this is communicated correctly to the client reading the request body. (markt)
update Update the native component of the APR/native connector to 1.1.27 and make that version the recommended minimum version. (markt)

fix 54483: Correct one of the Spanish translations. Based on a suggestion from adinamita. (markt)
fix Prevent the SSO deregister when web application is stopped or reloaded. When StandardManager(pathname="") or DeltaManager stops normally, all sessions in the context are expired. In this case, because most sessions is not time-out, SSO deregister was triggered. (kfujino)
fix Include the exception in the log message if the parsing of the context.xml file fails. (markt/kkolinko)
fix 54497: Make memory leak detection code more robust so a failure in the leak detection code does not prevent the Context from stopping unless the error is fatal to the JVM. (markt)
fix 54507: Do not start the background thread that is used for expiring sessions (amongst other things) until the web application is fully started. Stop the background thread as soon as the web application is stopped. (markt)

fix 54324: Allow APR connector to disable TLS compression if OpenSSL supports it. (schultz)
fix 54406: Fix NIO HTTPS connector to prune specified ciphers and sslEnableProtocols options to those supported by the SSL implementation, sharing logic with the BIO connector. Modified ciphers and sslEnabledProtocols option pruning to not silently revert to JVM defaults when none of the options specified are supported - new behaviour is to warn and explicitly enable no options. (timw)
fix Align NIO HTTP connector with other HTTP connectors and include leading blank lines when determining the size of the HTTP headers. (markt)
Jasper
fix 53869: Performance improvement for pages with lots of heavily nested tags. Retain a reference to the root JSP context rather than traversing the hierarchy on every call. Based on a patch suggested by Sheldon Shao. (markt)
fix 54440: Correct a regression caused by the changes for 54240 that broke compilation of JSPs with JspC. Patch provided by Sheldon Shao. (markt)
fix 54466: Improve error message by including the name of the file when the java file generated from a tag file cannot be compiled. Based on a patch by Sheldon Shao. (markt)

fix Fix release of processors in AjpNioProtocol. Wrong object was used as a key in the connections map. (kkolinko)
Jasper
add 54240: Add support for auto-detection and configuration of JARs on the classpath that provide tag plug-in implementations. Based on a patch by Sheldon Shao. (markt)
fix 54241: Revert the fix for 35410 as it was not compliant with the JSP specification, specifically that <%= obj %> must be translated to out.print(obj) which in turn becomes out.write(String.valueOf(obj)). This will trigger a NullPointerException if obj.toString() returns null. The fix for 35410 incorrectly suppressed the NullPointerException in this case. (markt)

fix 51956: RemoteAddrFilter used getRemoteHost instead of getRemoteAddr when filtering Comet events. (schultz)
fix 51952: Make the inclusion of a response body with a redirect response introduced to address 41718 optional and disabled by default due to the side-effects of including a body with the response in this case. (markt)

fix Improve processing of errors that are wrapped in InvocationTargetException. Rethrow fatal errors that must be rethrown. (kkolinko)
fix Improve handling of failed web application deployments during automatic deployment. Once deployment of a web application fails in one form (e.g. WAR), no further attempt (e.g. directory) will be made to deploy that web application. The base Lifecycle implementation has been improved to allow failed web applications to be started once the configuration issues have been resolved. Any changes to a context.xml file (global, per host or web application specific) will now result in a redeploy of the affected web application(s) that ensures that any changes are correctly applied rather than a reload which ignores changes in context.xml files. (markt/kkolinko)
