Hi,
there is an issue regarding the use of tomcat as
service on NT when running it with JDK1.3.
Use tomcat as stand-alone by starting it using the
command line, then try to access your servlet through
the port 8080. If it works, then your settings were
OK and the problem is well the NT service not working
correctly with JDK1.3 ==> use older jdk or browse
the tomcat archives to find other solutions.
Hope this helps.

Subject: "installing" servlet
I'm new to Tomcat; I've recently downloaded and installed (from binaries)
Tomcat 3.2 for Windows onto a WinNT 4.0 SP6a machine. I'm using IIS 4.0,
JDK1.3 (Sun's), servlet API 2.1.1 (Sun's), isapi_redirect.dll, and I'm
running Tomcat as an NT service (jk_nt_service.exe).
I've read (and re-read and re-read) all the on-line docs that come with the
Jakarta-Tomcat ZIP. I've also poured over bunches of docs and samples
found on the Web, as well as consulting the O'Reilly's "Java Examples in a
Nutshell" book.
No matter what I do, I CANNOT get a servlet to run within my own
context. I have NO problem running the demos (examples), and I *CAN* get
my servlet to run, but ONLY if I drop it into the examples\WEB-INF\classes
directory. (Therefore, I know my Tomcat installation is fine, and I know
that my servlet works.)
I've added the following to conf\server.xml between two other <Context ...>
items:
<Context path="/util"
docBase="webapps/util"
crossContext="false"
debug="0"
reloadable="true" >
</Context>
I've created webapps\util and ...\util\WEB-INF and ...\util\WEB-INF\classes.
I copied conf\web.xml to my WEB-INF directory and tweaked it down to this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>SimpleServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>SimpleServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>
</web-app>
Needless to say, the servlet's name is SimpleServlet, and it belongs to no
package.
I might add at this point that when I dropped my servlet's class into the
examples directory - the only place I can get it to run - I did NOT need to
alter the web.xml file in that location.
The best and most clear instructions I have found for how to "install" a
servlet appear in the FAQ list of the docs included with the Tomcat
installation. Yet, even after following those procedures step-by-step, I
still cannot get my servlet to run within a context I created.
HELP!!!!
