Newbie question
Hi I'm trying to do my first servlet. I've compiled a simple HelloWorld class. Now, where is the root Tomcat directory where may I put it ? How could I define a new one for my tests ?

Servlets should be under webapps/yourcontext/WEB-INF/classes/ directory. yourcontext can be anyone like, ROOT, examples,etc. One more thing do not forget to append /servlet/ to your url. Just to be more helpful for a new comer : say you put your HelloWorld servlet under tomcathome/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/ your url should be like this: http://localhost:8080/servlet/HelloWorld Hope this helps :) Thanks a lot. jl _ Do You Yahoo!?

I've made a new directory called classes under /Program Files/Apache Tomcat 4.0/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF and I copied my HelloWorldExample.class to this directory. From my browser I tried http://localhost:8080/servlet/HelloWorldExample and I received a The requested resource (/servlet/HelloWorldExample) is not available. message. Need I to define a new context ? jl _ Do You Yahoo!?

Hi Martin I could say yes and no. I think Tomcat is great, but installatin is not so easy as Apache with PHP and documentation about installing sucks. I guess people need more clear examples to do simple configuration tasks till get the idea. I've installed Tomcat in my XP in 10 minutes but I'm trying to get virtual hosts working from 3 days ago. I'm frustrated and feel myself like a newbie, but I´m not a newbie (damn !) IMHO jl _ Do You Yahoo!?

Te cuento que por 1 anio hemos intentado encontrar voluntarios para el libro Tomcat Book el cual iba a ser un completo libro de instalacion, configuracion y uso de Tomcat. Pero todo el que venia duraba 2 semanas y se iba. Entonces no es posible hacer tal cosa. Este software es gratuito y abierto, no se le puede pagar a alguien para que desarrolle. Lamentablemente la documentacion tiene que ser voluntaria y no hay voluntarios que quieran colaborar. Uhhh, que suerte encontrar a un compatriota ! Soy de BA y estoy desde hace un año viviendo en Manresa a 60 Km de Barcelona. Yo no puedo colaborar now, estoy intentando certificarme como CCNA para si consigo un empleo serio, pero me guardo tu address para contactarte en un tiempo y ver en que puedo ayudar.

Endless configuration files, paths, etc. making this a impossible software to use. I doubt I'm the only one who has complaint. I won't use this crap, I'm switching to PHP, took me 5 minutes to figure that out. Arni I know begining with Java could be a big fight, and many times you'll want to kill someone, but don't give up. :) Java it's a great tech with great future. I love PHP, but if you look around on internet for job offers you´ll found five times more offers to Java than PHP. Think about it, take a day and tomorrow come back to fight jl _ Do You Yahoo!?

I installed SuSE Linux 7.2 with Apache and PHP pre-installed, then I installed MySQL after the fact. I couldn't get PHP to see MySQL, I asked my instructor and he told me that I needed to install PHP after Both Apache and MySQL were installed. I found this strange to accept, but since I had no desire to use PHP after the class I left it at that. Hi If logical. If you installed source code to compile and tried to install PHP before install MySQL, PHP will not found MySQL libraries and will not work with it. If download PHP source code you will notice there is a file called INSTALL with 3 simple steps that ALLWAYS work. Regards jl _ Do You Yahoo!?

No re-compiling or re-installing of the software. Why is PHP so difficult to add components after the fact? Well, it depends what you call difficult :) I don't found difficult to make a ./config and make | make install I suppose it's a design concept problem. PHP needs to be compiled with all you want to be supported, but rarelly you will need to do it more than one time. But, to config a virtual host in Apache with PHP support is by far more easy than to config a virtual host in Tomcat. Personally I prefer to have complicated configurations. They give me jobs, money and food for my family. If configurations are easy and anyone could do it...why somebody will want to have my professional services ?=:-) jl _ Do You Yahoo!?
