First thing to realize is this is not like setting up PHP. JSPs aren't meant to live on their own like what you've setup below.
Consider pointing your tomcat virtual host to /home/username/webapps. Then create a folder /home/username named ROOT (case is important here) and place your .jsp file in it. Next, add a folder named WEB-INF (case is still important) under ROOT and then a basic web.xml file in that new folder. This is the basic architecture of a web application. Second, I would HIGHLY recommend you read the servlet spec. It's not nearly as dry as reading an IEEE spec and you'll learn a lot about what's expected of the app as well as the servlet container. Basic web.xml file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <webapp xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"; version="2.4"> </webapp> --David Werner Schalk wrote: >Hi, > >as I have now spend several hours trying to get this work, I am asking for >your support guys.
