I am totally new to JSP/serlets, my background is C++ then PHP and recently Java again. I am fine with these, but this has me baffled.
I am almost home when it comes to the install, had some issues but almost all is working. My last hurdle is one which is very confusing. ok, there is a webapps directory, inside is a very dirs, examples, ROOT etc. the normal root page loads up and I can get to the examples, the confusion starts here, the ROOT houses the index.jsp, but the examples are not UNDER ROOT they are a different dir back one in webapps. WHEN I add a jsp page into the root it works fine SO all I want to do is start messing with JSP for now. I have a folder which houses my work seperate from the app structure. so I created a jsp folder and then threw in s ln -s to it in the ROOT (also tried the webapps) then I renamed the main index file under ROOT, so there is not one, then when I goto root in the browser I get a dir tree. there is my jsp folder BUT when I click on it it says resource is not available!! what I did was I changed the grp on the folder to be tomcat4, just as the other items are. why can't I see this folder and get to a jsp in there? the docs are confusing and all they talk about is setting up web apps and stuff, I am far from this, I just want to do a very tests to get going. Do I need to create web app for each of them? I have looked online and have not found the answer, please help! Thanks tomcat 4.1.24 redhat 7.3 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
