JSP Newbie seeking guidance
Hello: This is a little intimidating, but I am eager. I hope I am in the right place. I am a DHTML developerintermediate level. I¹ve been exposed to JSP on an iPlanet server, Sun OS 5.8 (but it is my client¹s production server, and I¹m reluctant to mess around there!) I now have my own Tomcat install kind-of-working on a Fedora Core 2 box. It is Tomcat 5.0.x with Apache 1.3. I am studying an APress book called ³JSP 2.0 Novice to Professional,² but get errors with some of the exercises. (The book is great! Makes it sound so easy ;-) My main question is: Can someone recommend a proven Linux, Apache 2 Tomcat 5.5 combinationcould be unix, too. I figure I should set up a stable development rig firstone that I could eventually rely on in a light production environment. Also: I am interested in finding a tutor/mentor in the San Francisco Bay Area. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Re: JSP Newbie seeking guidance
I am avoiding the real issue--OK, I am ready to face it: javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.servlet.jsp.JspTagException: In lt;drivergt;, invalid driver class name: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver This is the error I get running an exercise from the Apress book. I can not seem to find my way using Google. I think maybe MySQL is not installed--or I am missing an important file...somewhere! Eeek.

I now have my own Tomcat install kind-of-working on a Fedora Core 2 box. It is Tomcat 5.0.x with Apache 1.3. Besides the other answers you will get, I would think you would want to run Tomcat standalone (i.e., have it process HTML pages as well), and not bother with connecting it to the Apache web server. You are just learning about JSP right now; not hosting web applications, so Apache is probably an unnecessary distraction at this time.

Re: JSP Newbie seeking guidance
Not at all, Justin. Thank you, thank you! Also, thank you, Mark Eggers. As I am so new to this, I run the risk of veering off-topic, which I realize is inappropriate. That said, I will get my newbie noggin back into the woodshed so that I may be true to this list.
