hi newbie question----help needed
Hi, I am newbie to JSP and tomcat. I tried to write the MyFirstServlet class and failed to do so. problem1 when I tried to change the port 8080 to 80 in the server.xml then Mozila browser refuses to open the tomcat welcome page.(But the book I refer says to change the port). I compile and did every thing according to the book. But still it gives The requested resource (/ch03/servlet/com.wrox.projsp.ch03.myfirstwebapp.MyFirstServlet) is not available. what could be the reason. I went through the previous mail and didn't get any help. All the spellings are correct(including cases as I use Linux) The book stated no need to have web.xml for simple servlets. Thank you for your great suggestion. regards, Jeyakumaran - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, are sure your tomcat's running at all? You know, that in order to run tomcat on port 80, you have to start it with root privileges! Check this out by running netstat -l . This lists you all open ports on your system Regards, Thilo Hi, I am newbie to JSP and tomcat.

Hi, Don't trust books blindly. Even when correct, they're often obsolete. The advice about port 80 is true on unix systems. Stick to 8080 for now for simplicity. And don't rely on the invoker servlet: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/misc.html#invoker Yoav Shapira Millennium Research Informatics -Original Message- From: Thilo Krawietz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 4:44 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: hi newbie questionhelp needed Hi, are sure your tomcat's running at all?
