But that's heresy on this list ;-). What about J2EE ? Does one need that as well ? Or the servlet engine above (like tomcat) would contain the J2EE as well. J2EE is a collection of different parts.

Hi, Yes, and some would say you don't need the Apache web server, since Tomcat can act as a web server too. Tomcat provides an implementation of the Servlet and JSP aspects of the J2EE suite, so if you only need those you're ok.

Dear Friends, I am trying to get started with tomcat 5.5.7 which is the most stable release. I have spent a lot time on reading the documents. Here I am trying to get some pointer. First let me introduce myself, I have a lot of experience using the RedHat linux. Right now my system is RedHat 9.0. I updated a lot of things on this machine such as Apache, Ant 1.6, JDK SE 1.5, gcc 3.3, gtk So my environment is bit recent. My kernel is 2.4.20-8. First question which is better, the source or the binary? I could build the tomcat easily by doing the simple download of the build.xml into a directory. At the shell #ant will build the whole tomcat system. What do I do to go to the next step: install the binaries into the proper places in the system, such as /usr/local/tomcat? I came from the classical make tradition, where you simple #make #make install Is there such a thing with ant? Does anyone have any idea for the location of documents or the sort concerning what to do after building tomcat? I don't seem to see anything in the source directory? On the binary download branch, I could follow the instruction from tomcat web page. Any comments or help is appreciated. Kemin

RE: Getting started questions about Jakarta
Hi, Your analogy is interesting but warped. Apache httpd is a web server not written in Java that's very mature, stable, fast, configurable, and you will get very little contention if you claim it's the best in the world at serving static content, CGI scripts, PHP code, handling SSL transactions, and more. But it does not serve any Java content, such as Servlets, JSPs, EJBs, etc. Apache Jakarta Tomcat is a Java servlet container. It's written in Java (so it'll run anywhere there's a JVM), and it can also serve static content. It can run CGI scripts, though not as efficiently as Apache httpd, and it can handle PHP only in a very very limited fashion. However, depending on your load and requirements, Tomcat by itself may be sufficient for your application. You can use Apache httpd and Apache Jakarta Tomcat together. Apache by itself refers to the Apache Software Foundation, the non-profit organization that sponsors and owns both the http and Tomcat products (as well as many others). Jakarta is an umbrella name for all Java projects within Apache. Sometimes when people say just Apache they also refer to the httpd project described above, so newcomers to this area may be confused by the name. I hope this clears things up for you a bit.

Hello QM, I have my server running Apache+Tomcat+GIS server+Oracle+Access DBs (they are connected trough GIS server for different projects) for almost one year, I've explained my professional specification to Atishay Kumar. My objective its to make work one or three applications and to make Tomcat to serve jsp pages with Apache. But it was really hard to make it work together as I say before. I read the Java docs - the thing that I'm not Java programmer, so its more then enough for me to make software work as official documentation says. If I have problems with balancers, filters, connectors or other - I'm writing to support, because they are designers, not I am. The point is I'm really TOMCAT USER, not developer, not Java programmer, so if its possible to use Tomcat with other servers or for different purposes, its would be great to have this information in documentation. I want to admit that Apache and Tomcat docs are perfect and pretty clear, but for example if I want to start learn jsp and install Tomcat on my computer that already have Apache - its logically that I want to know how they should work together, also I want to start from basics, not just from precompiled jsps. You can say that Tomcat wasnt designed for learning purposes - I agree, but if its possible somehow to give basic knowledge - it would be great.

RE: [OT}getting started
Eugene, This is off topic. We ran applications with Access. This is for some side work we (a couple of friends I) we experienced substantial degradation as the Access database grew. We ported the database to MySql just this weekend and already the response has improved measurably. The front end was changed from Access to java and that took the most time. None of us had any experience with MySql. The biggest hurdles we had was finding the right components for MySql and rewriting the front end in Java. Another thing was we could rid ourselves of some program functions that Access required which are provided by MySql. You might consider switching over from Access to MySql. -Original Message- From: Eugene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 26, 2004 11:52 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: getting started Hello QM, I have my server running Apache+Tomcat+GIS server+Oracle+Access DBs (they are connected trough GIS server for different projects) for almost one year, I've explained my professional specification to Atishay Kumar.

quick question when getting started
I'm upgrading from Tomcat 4 to 5 and I just installed Tomcat 5 on a dev machine to play with it, and I know a couple things are organized a bit differently, but the provided index page is weirding me out. I tried to add a line of text to the index.jsp in webapps\ROOT and when I reload the page (that I browse to by going to localhost on my Win 2K Server machine), that line of text isn't appearing. I've tried adding other bits, too, and I've tried restarting Tomcat, and I found a catalina-root.jar in the WEB-INF\lib folder and deleted that in an effort to get it to recompile the index.jsp, but nothing seems to be working!

Re: quick question when getting started
Hi Stephen, You've been tricked by the web.xml. The JSP's are pre-compiled to servlets and a mapping for the URL /index.jsp to this servlet has been inserted into web.xml. If you delete the servlet mapping in the web.xml, everything should be as normal, and your changes will be visible.

Hi Chris, I recently finished writing a fairly complete EJB tutorial, which was posted yesterday as the weekly feature for both developerWorks ( www.ibm.com/developerworks ) and the developerWorks Java zone ( www.ibm.com/developerworks/java ). Getting Started with EJB Technology is available permanently from: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/j-dw-java-gsejb-i.html A brief, and free, one time registration is required, but the same password and ID then work for all devWorks tutorials.

[Newbie]: Problem getting started with Tomcat
Hi all! I'm having some problems getting Tomcat up and running correctly. The problem is the following: When running startup.bat (I'm using a WinXP box, the IBM JVM and the latest Apache) I get the Message: -- snip -- Starting service Tomcat-Standalone Apache Tomcat/4.0.4-b3 Error unable to create jar cache in /tmp directory : java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file Error unable to create jar cache in /tmp directory : java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file Starting service Tomcat-Apache Apache Tomcat/4.0.4-b3 -- snip -- When I want to start the Tomcat service it is started and immediately halted. When manually starting Tomcat seems to be working since I'm getting the Tomcat page when opening http://localhost:8080/. What I tried so far was creating a /tmp folder in %catalina_home% (there's a /temp folder there), and I tried setting the system variable catalina_home to my install path. (I even tried setting the catalina_tmp variable, no effect). Anyway, would greatly appreciate any help I could get!

I suggest you look in the server logs, they're in the $TOMCAT_HOME/logs directory. I believe that if everything were working, the DOS window would stay there, the fact that it doesn't suggests that the server didn't start correctly, and hopefully would have told you why in the logs. Alternatively, open a new DOS prompt and run the bat file from there, that way you would be able to see the error messages before the window closes.

Re: GETTING STARTED WITH TOMCAT
Better assign JAVA_HOME TOMCAT_HOME in AUTOEXEC.BAT (Win9x), or in the Enviroment (NT/2K).

Re: GETTING STARTED WITH TOMCAT
What version of tomcat have you installed? For tomcat 4.x you must set also CATALINA_HOME. If it's working fine, it should left one console(window) for you. Rgds, Andy.

RE: GETTING STARTED WITH TOMCAT
When the DOS window won't stay open, try bin\tomcat run This will start Tomcat in the current DOS window instead of a new DOS window. This should give you a look at the error. If on Win9x, what you need to see scrolls off the screen, try bin\tomcat run logs\tomcat.log Most of the log output will go to tomcat.log, but some will still go to the DOS window.

RE: GETTING STARTED WITH TOMCAT
The window that is opening and closing is the Tomcat window. This window should stay open, that is where you will see any messages written to System.out or System.err. Try starting it like this: tomcat.bat run This will cause Tomcat to start in the current window. You should then be able to see any error messages generated by Tomcat. Let us know what these messages say.

With that symptom, I inserted the SET directives for both of these in the startup.bat file instead, and it worked. I suppose my autoexec.bat is screwed up, but I'm not going to troubleshoot that.

Getting started with JSP on my WHP
Good morning, I just bought a web account from a local web hosting provider. I wanted to start doing some JSP and my current WHP doesn't support JSP. I'm not new to Java and have written a few servlets in my time. But I am new to Tomcat and JSP. My WHP has minimal (read no) documentation, so I'm now wondering how to get started. My WHP is running Linux Red Hat, Apache, and Tomcat. I've got an account and a web directory on the system (which all work, by the way). Basically, how do I set up my existing servlets and get JSP pages running? Where does my WEB_INF/web.xml file go? I have several tutorials, but they all explain how to set up Tomcat for a machine that you own. What I'm looking for is a simple tutorial for setting up servlets and JSP on a machine that's been configured for use by many users. Example: All of the tutorials I have say to set up your web app configuration files, then restart Tomcat. Obviously I can't restart Tomcat on my provider's machine. So when does/will Tomcat pick up new web applications or changes to servlet JARs etc.? Thanks __ James Bucanek mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello! I'm new to Tomcat... The problem is... I've started Tomcat on Win2000 in a new window - from a shell [command: tomcat startup]... How to test it via examples?

Re: getting started...
The simple test would be to open a browser and goto http://localhost:8080, if you are using it as a standalone container. This would take you to the index.html. Whereas for testing other applns. you can go to the TOMCAT_HOME/doc/uguide/ and browse thru the html files, which gives you a better idea. Guru.
