pro_jsp thread: Trying to setup projsp as an application on my Windows 98 machine

Hi,

I find out 3 possibilities.

To set the docBase in W98, try to use full path in docBase attribute, like 
docBase="d:\Tomcat\webapps\projsp" or docBase="d:\Web Application". Your 
<Context> must be within the <ContextManager></ContextManager>.

Tomcat is using port 8080 by default instead of 80. But if you can access 
the webapps\examples, just ignore this possibility.

The webapps\examples works fine because there is an index.html in 
admin.war, which is the default page of Tomcat web server. For 
http://localhost/projsp case, (not specify any webpage to load) you should 
have a default page, namely index.html in your projsp 'root' directory. 
You can set the default page in WEB-INF/web.xml with this parameters :

<web-app>
<welcome-file-list>
	<welcome-file>welcome.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
</web-app>

then, you don't have to specify the webpage to load. Remember to restart 
your Tomcat after changes.

Hope it helps...
