Hello,
I finally got my JSP to run under Orion. What helped me most was the hint to
turn on full error messages in the browser. Since orion does not write error
logs (which is of course unacceptable in a production environment), this is
at least one way to know whats going on.
Now, however, I realize that Orion does not seem to support the POST method
in forms. My JSP generates the attached HTML. When submitted, the doGet()
method is invoked on my servlet - which is wrong, of course.
<html>
<head>
<title>Music Without Borders</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#33CCFF">
<font face="Times New Roman,Times" size="+3">
