Searched for solution, lots of conflicting/old info, have been unable to implement solution.
1st ever
Java install:
C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04
2nd addition:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0
3rd addition:
C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_07
Added these along the way while learning since Dec2003.
Per
Tomcat 5.5 being optimized for JRE1.5.0, I accepted the default dir during Tomcat installation of:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0
Tomcat starts up, all JSP/Servlet examples work fine.
When I open a command prompt, or use my free
IDE(BlueJay)...get this error
When I'm at the command prompt, I have ALWAYS worked from:
C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04
to compile
ie;
C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04 javac HelloWorld.java
Will compile,and run programs in the same manner.
Again, there are many posts out there about a *.jar file needing to be here/there/etc.
However for Tomcat 5.5, I am totally ignorant of what to do, and if the settings truly go inside CLASSPATH or just PATH in winxp.
When setting up Tomcat, the instructions I had said just enter info into PATH, and it worked great - however since java needs access, I could understand if have to put something in CLASSPATH.
Thanks
