Hello,

I went to download the source code for Beginning JavaServer Pages.

I received a .zip file called ' BeginningJavaServerPages.zip', which was 15.5 megabytes.

After I extracted it, I saw that only Chapter 1 had all the source code. The following chapters only have the .WAR files:
    Chapters 2-10, 12, 13, 15.

Am I missing something? Being rather new at this, I tried deploying the war files via the Tomcat Web Application Manager, and got the following message:
    OK - Deployed application at context path /ch03

However, none of the files appeared in the respective directories.

Did anyone else encounter this problem and / or find a solution?

I used the following link and tried both the 'FTP' and 'HTTP' options:
http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTit...load_code.html

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I've had no problems using the Tomcat Application Manager. I have successfully used the war's for chapters 2-6 with no problems.

Sorry, I've never known this.
Ask the authors of the book.

I also hava the problem.
Can anybody tell me why????
Thanks!

When you deploy the war file through Tomcat's Manager application, it will extract everything in the war file appropriately into it's own directory (same name as the war file) under Tomcat's webapps directory.

This is where you will want to look for the source code. It's there.

On my windows system, the directory would be as follows (once the war file is deployed):

c:\Tomcat5.5\webapps\ch02\...

Look in the different example directories and also in the ch2 directory under the classes directory as there is a java file along with the corresponding class file in that directory.

I also encountered the same problem while deploying the war file of the 2nd chapter. The file is not available in the tomcat directory. Moreover, I'm not able to deploy. While deploying it's showing error code 500 in the browser. Is there any problem with the tomcat? Can anybody help me?

With regards,
Anindya
