Thanks for that explanation, Craig. There are two lines in the zone's
properties file that seem to be involved with setting up the scratch
directory:
servlet.jsp.initArgs=scratchDir=/usr/local/apache/servlet
jsp.initparams=scratchdir=/usr/local/apache/servlet
Are they both necessary? Are either or both correct?
BTW, in the Apache error_log, this message appears every time I start
the server:
The JSP Engine is not configured with a scratch dir.
Please add
jsp.initparams=scratchdir=<dir name>
in the servlets.properties file for this context
This does not inspire confidence...
Thanks again,
Bruce Conrad

For the JSWDK implementation, the generated servlets are stored in the
scratch
directory that you've defined in the initialization parameters of your
JSP
servlet. Because of this, you don't have to do anything with your zone
properties or anything like that.
Normally, only the compiled ".class" file is kept, but you can set an
initialization parameter to keep the generated source as well.
