Run a servlet

[Antonio Paulo]

Hi everybody

I'm a new java servlet user.
In the Windows 7 DOS prompt i typped the pass to my servlet.java.
The OS doesn't recognize the instruction javac as a valid command line.
Please help me to solve this problem.
Best regards.

Antonio Paulo.

Your Java SDK bin directory is not set in the Wondows 7 Path. Hence window is not able to recognize it as a valid command.
You can copy the servlet.java file in the bin directory of your Java SDK folder and run it from there.

Append 'PATH' environment variable to path of of your Java SDK and separate it via ;(Semicolon.

Create a CLASSPATH environment variable and set its value to . (Dot) and then add semicolon and
also enter path of Tomcat/lib/servlet-api.jar

You will need HTTP* classes explicitly to compile servlets.

Now, you should be able to run javac from command prompt
