Title: Tomcat problem. Help!

Premature end of script header in your case means something like when apache passed the request to a program/script, it had an abrupt end and apache didn't get the expected/required response for the request.

 

In your case the problem is with tomcat and not apache. Apache passed that request to tomcat and your jsp failed and hence

you got the error premature end of script header.

Subject: Tomcat problem. Help!

  Hello there. First of all forgive me if this is the wrong list. I guess this message could be easily posted on Apache's mailing list as well.

  Now, I am using Apache v1.3.12 and Tomcat v3.1 (for Windows). I have written a simple JSP program to open a connection with a mySQL database on the network. The thing is that everytime the line Class.for("org.gjt.mm.myswl.Driver"); is encountered, Tomcat goes off (and I get the error message "Internal Server Error. The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request...."). It goes off just like that and everytime I have to start it up again manually (and everytime it goes off again). I know that this is the line that causes the problem because I have tried to take it out and everything is working fine. I have checked the database and the drivers and everything is fine. Now my question is: Do I have to configure something on Tomcat that I have not done before? Do I have to configure something on Apache? Has anybody encountered this problem before? What would be possible to cause it? I have to say here as well that I checked the Apache's error.log and I found the error message: "Premature end of script headers: c:\<filelocation>\<filename>.jsp. What does this mean?

  Thank you in advance.
