Stella,
About the admin port problem, I haven't seen that. From what I can
gather, the server opens up a socket (the admin port) and listens on
that socket from another process. I think the intention is to have the
server-control GUI talk to the server using an undisclosed protocol.
For the JSWDK, the stopserver.bat script uses the
com.sun.web.shell.Shutdown class to send a message on this port telling
the server to quit. After you have run the startserver.bat, check to
see that there is a webserverlog.txt file in that directory, that
usually says what the admin port is. You should be able to "telnet
localhost port#" and if you see "could not open connection" or some
message like that, then your admin port has quit listening. It could
mean many things: a) your server has quit entirely, b) the socket is
messed up somehow, c) you are not running the stopserver script from the
same directory where the webserverlog.txt file is. I am assuming that it
reads the port number from the .txt file. I know the port number
changes, but you can also specify a fixed port number in webserver.xml.
Here's what I have done:
I have put all my servlet related stuff under \Users\Shash\servlets. The
example here is from a Win98 laptop I use at work, but I do very similar
things in Linux (mostly the path names and the forward/backward slashes
are the difference, and of course, use a shell window instead of MS-DOZE
;-). I copied the webserver.jar, lib/xml.jar, lib/servlet.jar and
lib/jspengine.jar from JSWDK into this directory. NOTE: You could leave
the JSWDK separate from your webapplication. I did it two steps, first I
got JSWDK/examples working on its own and then started messing with my
own webapplication and did not want to experiment with what I already
got working.
The "default" webapplication servlets and classes are under
\Users\Shash\servlets\webpages\Web-inf\servlets and are accessed as
http://localhost:8080/servlet/servletname-or-alias.
Then I have copied the JSWDK examples directory under
\Users\Shash\servlets\examples and those servlets are accessed as
http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/servletname.
Finally, I have created my own WebApplication called "shash" and I put
those servlets in \Users\Shash\servlets\shash\Web-inf\servlets. These
servlets are accessed as http://localhost:8080/shash/servlet
To run the server, in a MS-DOS window, I "cd /Users/Shash/servlets" and
type "startserver" and it says:
JSWDK WebServer Versions 1.0.1
Loaded configuration from: file:C:\Users\Shash\servlets\webserver.xml
endpoint created: localhost/127.0.0.1:8080
To stop the server, from the same directory, I type "stopserver"
Here's the webserver.xml that I use (minus comment-header):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE WebServer [
