OK, I get this message:
No Java compiler was found to compile the generated source for the JSP. This can usually be solved by copying manually $JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar from the JDK to the common/lib directory of the Tomcat server, followed by a Tomcat restart. If using an alternate Java compiler, please check its installation and access path.
I have tomcat installed in C:\Tomcat5.0 and %CATALINE_HOME is: C:\Tomcat5.0 JAVA_HOME is:C:\j2re1.4.2_04 which is where I have java installed
I can get tomcat to run and it loads the default tomcat page and I can load the examples but I tried creating a new context and I always get the error above. I just wanted one of the new contexts to be a folder with subfolders that contained images and that won't even load. I'm running XP with Tomcat5.0.19-all settings are default for Tomcat except running on port 80.
I've installed Tomcat4.0 before and was able to get it up and running in no time. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks, J.R.
C:\j2re1.4.2_04 is your problem. You need to download a JDK not a JRE. The JSP's use javac and JRE doesn't have any development tools (javac nor any other JDK tool). That's why the error message you got mentions getting tools.jar from a JDK not a JRE ;-).
Hope that helps you out.
