I'd like to suggest you take a look at the Apache OpenEJB plugin for
Tomcat (http://openejb.apache.org/tomcat.html). Basically, you drop
the openejb.war into Tomcat and you get a JEE compatible Tomcat.
OpenEJB also has support for Collapsed EAR deployment (http://openejb.apache.org/collapsed-ear.html
) which vastly simplifies the development and deployment of EJBs,
persistence units and web-services (this will be most likely make it
into the next EJB spec).
If you decide take a look and run into any problems, hit us up on the
OpenEJB mailing list (http://openejb.apache.org/mailing-lists.html).

Hi all,
I’m fairly new to J2EE in general, so please forgive
my naïve question. I would like to take a simple hello world type
JSP and Servlet project running via WTP 2.0.2 on Europa. Running on
Apache Tomcat Server it runs fine. But then, after stopping Tomcat,
when I try to right-click on project and “Run as…”, “Run on Server”
and choose Geronimo 2.1 then no browser window will open and no page
is showed.
I can however manually start the Geronimo server in
the Servers pane, and navigate to localhost:8080 and see that the
server is running.
I noticed this fairly recent post, which seems very similar to my
problem.
