hi all
Thanks for your (mike/nasser) help
I am able to run jsps and
servlets in tomcat4.0.1
Steps involved are
1.download tomcat4.0.1 from
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.1/bin/ 2.download and install jdk (version 1.2 or later) from
http://java.sun.com/j2se/ 3.set CATALINA_HOME=<
tomcat install path>
example set CATALINA_HOME=C:\JAKARTA-TOMCAT-4.0.1
Note this should be set in autoexec.bat.
4.set JAVA_HOME=<yoyr jdk install path>
example set JAVA_HOME=C:\JDK1.3
Note this should be set in autoexec.bat.
5.Check you have set path and classpath variables for jdk instalation
ie path variable should contain c:\jdk<ver>\bin;
and classpath should contain .;c:\jdk<ver>\lib;
6.start tomcat by double clicking startup.bat located in bin directory of tomcat install directory
7.To check succesful start up open yr favourite browser and type in addressbar
http://localhost:8080 you should get tomcat index page loaded and try out
jsp and servlet examples.
8.Shutdown tomcat by double clicking shutdown.bat in bin dir.
9.NOTE if you get out of environment space
plesae do the following
right click on startup.bat
choose properties
click on memory tab
set initialenvironment to 4096.
you will see a "shortcut startup" created in the bin directory
use this shortcut for starting tomcat
10 for shutdown also follow the above step
Thanks all
