HI I just want to know if you have an applet that communicates with a servlet , what do you need on your server to make it work, we have an apache web server, will it work on it or not?
Any Body can be paid to write good code, but brilliant code can only come from passion
You can install the Tomcat servlet engine with Apache and it should work. Somewhere around Javaranch is some example code for transmitting a serialized object between applet and servlet. Bill
Apache doesn't process J2EE directly - you configure it to pass JSP and servlet requests to Tomcat (or whatever J2EE server you like). There's a Tomcat-Apache HOWTO at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-apache-howto.html. The simplest of the several ways to do is is via mod_jk and the ajp13 connector - for me, anyway. The magic word to look for to get a client-side applet to talk to a server is "URLConnection".
The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.
No more fooling around. Read this tiny ad:
