Also, as a novice, you are setting yourself up for some potential grief by using Apache.
Ok I will stick to tomcat. Does this mean I should stop the Apache server?
Sure. Then, change Tomcat's server.xml file so that the HTTP Connector configured for port 8080 is configured for port 80. Then restart Tomcat. You'll have to make sure that neither Apache nor anything else starts up on port 80 that would conflict with Tomcat.
There is no requirement to use Apache to learn JSP and servlet development. You will make things much easier on yourself if you ignore Apache for now and simply use Tomcat. Tomcat is perfectly capable of handling all of your needs, both as a normal web server and as a servlet container for JSP and servlet development.
Er ... whats all the talk ablout JSP? All I'm trying to develop is a servlet. How closely are servlets related to JSP? I'm sorry to ask. Its only because I would like to know.
JSP are compiled into servlets. JSP are optional, but you need something like Tomcat to deal with them.
