Haven't seen any reply on this, since my post. Basically, I installed
tomcat 3.2.3 in $TOMCAT_HOME/tomcat-3.2.3. I have RedHat Linux 7.1 running,
and this installation included Tomcat's startup and shutdown scripts, which
an RPM version I have on a different machine did not. Not sure that's
relevant, but thought I'd throw it out.
Also, the RH 7.1 box is a completely clean install. I followed the
installation and "getting this thing running" steps in the user guide,
setting $JAVA_HOME, $TOMCAT_HOME and other config options. I also have
running the 1.3 JDK (not only the JRE, the entire JDK was downloaded and
installed).
Now the problem. The servlet examples work fine. However, stack trace I
included below is what I see whenever I try running the JSP examples.
I've double checked to make sure that the java command is working properly,
and the version which does work on a RH 6.1 (Linux 2.2 kernel) is working
with the same version of Tomcat, although installation was done through RPM
instead of tar.
Any ideas?
