Well, reading text files is a must for any serious developer and/or
systems administrator. One must know the technology one uses. Yes,
sometimes things can be *very* frustating, but I believe that should be
taken as a learning experience, not as an excuse for jumping up some
'big brand' easy-weasie product. As Jon stated, you use what better
suits you. The fact that someone gave up JServ simple because he/she
could not install it shows that perhaps this person does not understand
well the intricate relationship between a web server and a servlet
engine. iPlanet is not simpler than JServ. It may simple be better
hidden behind a nice web-interface and automated installation tool, but
it is a complex piece of software. If it was a word processor, fine,
then I agree an easy-to-use wordprocessor is, arguably, better than a
complex one. However, when we are speaking about a development platform
such as Java Servlets, you *must* understand what goes under the hood at
some time. At some point, be it at the beginning of development or after
the application is deployed, problems will show up which will only be
solved by a serious analisys of the interations between browser, web
server, servlet engine, servlets, business objects/beans, any other
middleware and storage. Yes, complex. But if you take your time in
understanding all these pieces of software, then you make both you and
your developer's lives easier.
