Not really important. Tomcat and Java versions are vastly more critical.
I dont think Java, Tomcat and Derby are installed. I access the
servere thruough Cpanel and WHM. I was told that cpanel and WHM do
not manage Java and Derby so they can not help me on the matter.
Tomcat can be very difficult to setup on CPanel. Once you get Tomcat
running, you don't need to install tomcat.
That was brain-damaged. You don't need to install derby.
I tried Tomcat and derby with Eclipse on my computer and it works. In
my set up i use a Derby network server according to the instructions
i got. This requires that I have to start the Derby server
independently using localhost. In my regular setup i am using Derby
with 0.0.0.0 in order to accept queries from any computer on my local
network.
My questions are:
1- Should I use the Embedded Derby server with Tomcat so that Tomcat
start the server itself? I am not sure Tomcat can work with Derby
started at 0.0.0.0. In the future context of a web site, is this a
requirement or can I still use the Derby network server with Tomcat?
Using Derby as embedded will make your life vastly simpler because you
can just put the Derby jars in your WEB-INF/lib directory. On my
system, I put the DB in WEB-INF/sql/DERBY.
You can change later to network derby if you want by just moving the
DB, and changing the JDBC Connection information.
2- In teh Web site, should the Derby database be installed within
Tomcat directories or can it be anywhere like on my computer?
Again, I recommend you put the derby jar files in your WAR's
WEB-INF/lib. This is the easiest thing.
One thing to remember: If you put the DB files in the web application
directory, removing the webapp will cause tomcat to delete your DB.
Don't put the DB files in the web app directory, or make sure that
you're really careful.
Thank you
