OS X 10.6.2, Java 1.6.0_17, tomcat 6.0.18 I've spent hours researching how to configure embedded Tomcat. It starts up fine, Spring config works, but I get 404's when loading the jsps ( http://localhost:8080/App/test.jsp) . I have the code that I am using to start Tomcat here: http://gist.github.com/259737
There is a directory generated from where I run the above script. (work/localEngine/localhost/App) but nothing gets copied there. Are my JSPs supposed to end up there? There are no errors on the console and no log files. If I use a context that really doesn't exist I get a blank screen rather than a 404. ( http://localhost:8080/App1234/test.jsp) I suspect that my configuration is wrong because I am making a lot of guesses. All I can find is the api docs and some broken examples. Can anyone explain or point me to better documentation? I have some specific questions: I'm pretty sure what I am passing to creatHost is wrong. Embedded.createHost(...) requires an appBase - "Absolute pathname to the application base directory for this virtual host." What is my appBase? My project is a typical Maven project with a Web module. Do I need Catalina_Home setup programatically or otherwise? I have no Tomcat actually installed. I only reference Tomcat in my Maven pom. Do I need a sever.xml somewhere. Currently I just have a web.xml. The best information that I have found is these examples: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/640022/howto-embed-tomcat-6 (I'm using the same Maven pom dependencies) http://raibledesigns.com/rd/entry/jetty_6_x_versus_tomcat And the apis: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/api/org/apache/catalina/startup/Embedded.html#createConnector(java.lang.String, int, boolean) I've seen this question asked many times without answers. http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-users/200606.mbox/<448f0710.6010...@networkcar.com> Here a guy in the comments shows his emedded startup code, http://raibledesigns.com/rd/entry/jetty_6_x_versus_tomcat He says"The bit about the default web.xml is to get the standard behaviors you'd expect from Tomcat, like processing JSPs. " Why did he need to resort to this to get his jsps to work? Thanks in advance for any help!
