I need above configuration ( Windows 2000 professional ); but I can't run JSP, though I run ( their demo/examples ) servlets.

Can some-one point out what configuration, i am failing ? Also I need to run JSP/Servlets from /wwwroot; what need I do to let Apache pass .jsp to tomcat, and tomcat to run my .jsp files in /wwwroot.

Any fruitful help'll b appreciated.

To get jsp's to run you need the same directory structure that exists under webapps for the jsp examples. There are a number of folders including some xml files. The easiest way is to copy the existing folder, then rename it. When you stop and restart tomcat the folder should be picked up automatically as long as the directory structure and web.xml are in place.

In order to use tomcat with apache you will need to install the j2k connector (I think thats the name, havent looked at it for a while), I think the jakarta tomcat home page mentions this.

Thank u4 the enlightenment.

I've unzipped jakarta-tomcat to D:\jakarta-tomcat\binjdk resides at D:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0jre resides at D:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0OS is C:\Windows\ ( I'm using Windows 2003 Standard Edition )
Apache is running from D:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\bin\apache.exe

Aapche ( mod_rewrite enabled )/PHP/MySQL/Perl is working fine.

But I've problems with Tomcat.
When I call startup.bat of Tomcat from command prompt, command prompt instantly! closes without any message.

http://localhost:8080/ is showing nothing.

Please, guide me to set .jsp for Apache as I set .php
I call PHP files from C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ on port 80.
Can I call .jsp from same directory, though at port 8080.
( I assume, Java Application Server requires separate port lieu http://localhost/ ; Apache is already using http://localhost/ )

Help me, do this, please, please

Hmm, I got tomcat to run .jsp on http://localhost:8080/~
But, I can't login to http://localhost:8080/admin/frameset.jsp
What's the password ?
Also, can some1 tell me clearly, how can I connect it to Apache.
How2deal with j2k connector -n- mod_jserv ?
No idea
Please reply. Please reply. Some1 of u might've worked it, already, I think.

You need to create the same directory structure used for the jsp-examples under webapps folder for your site. You need the files such as web.xml also.

I coppied the jsp-examples folder, renamed it and deleted the old jsp's and other stuff, restarted tomcat, with the structure and web.xml tomcat found the application.

you could leave some of the examples in place for the first run to check they are working.

Reference apache, you need a connector, the jk2 connector I think, pretty sure this can be downloaded from jakarta site.

login for http://localhost:8080/admin/ can be created by fit -ing

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
    <role rolename="admin"/>
    <user username="admin" password="admin" roles="admin"/>
</tomcat-users>

in file ~\jakarta-tomcat-5\conf\tomcat-users.xml

Still've problem with integrating /wwwroot, Apache, MySQL

Ok, I'm now trying my first .jsp script.
I've placed in 1.jsp in folder c:\jakarta-tomcat-5\webapps\root
http://localhost:8080/1.jsp worked. Very good. Now, I wanna ask, what is WEB-INF folder in each of jsp aplication?
What is the alliance b/w JSP-n-XML? ( I don't use/need any XML in PHP! ) Please, answer these ( stupid ) questions2me; I'm learning 'abcd' of JSP.

I've downloaded blogroll Web log from SourceForge; I want2first install it; then customize it; then upload it live!
So I can say, I've done my first project in JSP ( with individualistic efforts plus help with P2P users! And I hope2get a nice job, then! ).

Bit late replying to this, in order to use startup.bat in windows you need to setup the classpath for java, alternatively you can add it in the startup.bat file, something like:

@echo off
set JAVA_HOME=c:\j2sdk1.4.2_01

Edit startup.bat with notepad.

Do the same for shutdown.bat
