RE: Is it necessary to use a jdk with tomcat?
Howdy, Technically, as things are right now, if you don't have JSPs that need to be compiled at runtime, you can use the JRE. If you have JSPs and want to use the JRE, pre-compile your JSPs using JspC. However, please note that the official tomcat requirement for installation is the JDK, not the JRE. That may change in the future, but it is the policy right now and has been for a while. Generally speaking, if you do not follow installation instructions for a product and then run into difficulties, you will have a tougher time getting (relevant) support.

[...] And with TC 4.1 there is even a check in the startup scripts to test for the JDK. Look into setclasspath.bat and you will find a check for jdb and javac. You must comment out these checks to successfully start Tomcat. Olli - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Since at the run time you are using jars, It should not matter whether you use jdk o jre. santos [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, Is it better to run tomcat with a jdk over a jre?

If you are using JSP files, then you need the JDK (to compile them). If not (or, if you pre-compile your JSPs) then it doesn't matter. Thanks!
