RE: Fresh install of Tomcat - getting frustrated with the JSP noworking
From: niblz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Fresh install of Tomcat - getting frustrated with the JSP noworking http://www.coreservlets.com/Apache-Tomcat-Tutorial/ At least part of that tutorial is fatally flawed, and the author should be ashamed of himself. One must *never* set CLASSPATH to include the servlet-api.jar and jsp-api.jar (besides, he gave incorrect locations). Get rid of the CLASSPATH - you don't need it. I have download this OFFICIAL example http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/appdev/sample/ Works fine for me; where did you put it? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

RE: Fresh install of Tomcat - getting frustrated with the JSP noworking
From: Marty Hall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Fresh install of Tomcat - getting frustrated with the JSP noworking If you compile directly (from TextPad or UltraEdit or the command line), then you need to either set the CLASSPATH variable or pass -classpath on the command line or put the JARs in the ext folder (this is in the development environment, not the server environment). That is indeed correct. However, the links within the tutorial indicate that CLASSPATH should be set for the Tomcat server execution, not just servlet compilation. Including those jars in the CLASSPATH during Tomcat execution causes multiple copies of the classes to be loaded under different classloaders, resulting in no end of grief with CNFE problems. (Also, the given location of the jars is incorrect for Tomcat 6.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

RE: Fresh install of Tomcat - getting frustrated with the JSP noworking
From: Marty Hall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Fresh install of Tomcat - getting frustrated with the JSP noworking Sorry if I was unclear. The part on setting the CLASSPATH was under the section entitled Setting up your Development Environment. Part of the problem is the link to the CLASSPATH section from Executive Summary. When following that link, the fact that it's under the Development Environment section can't be seen. There needs to be a stronger statement that setting CLASSPATH is *only* for compilation of servlets, and that it must be removed prior to actually running Tomcat. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
