The JDK is required to compile the JSPs, as they are converted into Java source code and then compiled into servlets.
However, if you application relies soley on servlets, or pre-compiled JSPs, then there is no need for the JDK and the JRE would be adequate. Simply change the startup scripts to faciliate that.

In RUNNING.txt there is the sentence, that I have to install a JDK before running TOMCAT - is there a possibility to run TOMCAT in conjunction with the JRE only? (On our HP-UX, there's only JRE installed). If yes, is there some guideline what to change, because in the startup scripts there will be checked if jdo and javac is present.
