In the primary conf/web.xml, the invoker <servlet> is defined, but the <servlet-mapping> is commented out. In the /examples/WEB-INF/web.xml file, the <servlet-mapping> definition is given. The servlets in this directory work. In this same file, there is a bunch of other stuff that I'm not sure if I need or not. Particularly the <filters> & <filter-mapping> directives. Do I need them? I tried my own servlet in /ROOT without them and it does not work, yet I've never seen them mentioned on any web pages or group messages about getting servlets to work. (ROOT does work if I include them)
And as long as I'm imposing. . . ;)
My JSP will not compile automatically. If I let it fail, then go to the TOMCAT/work directory and compile it by hand it will work. (I also had to copy my BEANS directory under the word lib to get it to compile.) Do you have any hints on getting JASPER to work, or even how to figure out what the compile error is? All I get in the error log is:
= = =
2002-10-18 14:00:06 StandardWrapperValve[jsp]: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
= = =
Finally: (As IF!)
In the case of an APACHE/TOMCAT combination, does APACHE send the *.JSP to TOMCAT, then interpret the response before sending it back to the browser? I currently have a few SSI in my JSP, and am using the <%@include file="TOP.html"%> JSP directives to get them in it, but that means I have to have copies of my include files in both APACHE's "htdocs" lib (for my other static pages) and TOMCAT's "ROOT" lib (for my JSP pages). Can I change that to a normal HTTP INCLUDE? (It didn't work when I was running under IIS and WebSphere.)
Thank you very much for your time.
