Subject: starting problems with tomcat packages on os x
Dear frinds,
I hope you will forward my message to the matching place ;-) THX.:!
I have downloaded the tomcat binaries for OS X and I was very confused
during the installation process. I was guided by the following
instruction link.
http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/tomcat1.html
and
http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/tomcat2.html
(very usefull links for servlet beginners like me ;-)
now I know that the instructions are right, but something goes wrong
during unpacking the binaries. At the download section I found the hint
that there are problems with the current tar version on OS X Clients, so
i used the stuffit expander. My installation result was that the
webserver worked fine, but the JSP and Servlet Example part did not. It
was hard for me to find out the the problem was a missing 's' in some
file ending names. So I did'nt know if the problem was caused by StuffIt
or by the archive on your webserver. I tried the version 4.0.1 and
4.0.3. They both have the same problem. Some class files have after
unpacking a wrong ending (.clas and not .class). So it may be usfull to
fix it, if it's caused by the archive, otherwise it may be usefull to
give an other hint for OS X user. It's a new System and I can imagine
that I'm not the only newbe-one ...
I' hope the Information is usefull for you ...
best regards from germany
