1) You have to setup a Context in server.xml. There is already a ROOT Context by default. See the docs.
2) Yes. 3) If you have Tomcat installed as a service, you cannot use a shutdown script. You must control it via the services control panel.

The installation seems fine....I can see the "Net Start" section..... I can also go to http://localhost:8080 and see the index page. I have set up my CATALINA_HOME variable as D:\Tomcat I also set up my JAVA_HOME variable as C:\jdk2 My question are: 1) I created a small file under %CATALINA_HOME\webapps\Root\test.jsp and try to run it from the web browser and that is ok. However, if I try to move that file to a different direction...say %CATALINA_HOME%\training\test.jsp then that doesn't work. I move the whole directory under %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps and that still doesn't work. Could you tell me the reason? 2) How do you we tell if Tomcat is running from NT? Does it mean if we can http://localhost:8080 successfully then Tomcat is running? 3) I tried to stop Tomcat (because I think it's running since I can run the index.jsp file)..by running %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\shutdown.bat ...but I got a Java exception "Connection refused"..... What is wrong?? Thanks for the patience and the answers. Chi Long _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?
