You need to configure your web server as well..which is what the error
message below is telling me...you probably need a virtual host setup or you
need to reconfigure your root doco settings..apache doesn't know how to
service your request...then you need to modify your server.xml to support
your root doco/virtual host setting in apache...
You'll know if you have a jsp error and/or java error...you'll get your
typical java compilation errors...such as not having the tools.jar
file....etc...
Hope this little bit of information helps you..

Subject: why wont tomcat execute jsps properly for me?
sorry if this message gets sent more than once, im not
sure if i sent it properly the first time, anyways...
hi folks,
im a newbie to tomcat and jsp's but hopefully one of
ye can help me with my problem,
when i startup tomcat and go to the jsp examples link
(http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp/) none of the jsp
examples (like numguess.jsp) will execute for me and i
get this error
"There is a problem with the page you are trying to
reach and it cannot be displayed"
now i bought "teach yourself jsps in 24 hours" and it
tells me that the reason for this problem is that my
JAVA_HOME in the tomcat.bat file is not pointing to
the root of my correct jdk installation.
now, i have jdk1.2.2 installed and the root is
d:\jdk1.2.2, and it works ok otherwise, i can javac in
dos properly.
and the root of my tomcat is c:\tomcat
i think the problem is either with my tomcat.bat or
autoexec.bat file but i dont know how to correct the
problem, could someone please take a look at these
files for me (i have copied them in below) and tell me
how they are wrong.
i would be very grateful
c:\autoexec.bat
