Folks-
I have put
Tomcat 5.0.24 on Fedora Core 1. All the the examples work,
I even download the O'Reilly book jspbook3.zip files from the JavaServer Pages book. These examples work well.
I created a sub directory, /usr/local/tomcat5.0/webapps/myApp
with /WEB-INF/web.xml
web.xml below
--------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.comxml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/h233
http://java.sun.com/xmlj2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd" version="2.4">
<display-name>
TEST JSP!</display-name>
<description>First JSP Thang</description>
<
servlet>
<servlet-name>test_jsp</servlet>
<servlet-class>test_jsp</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>test</servlet>
<url-pattern>/test.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
....My jsp file is nothing more then
<html>
<head>
<title>test jsp</title>
</head>
<body>
1 + 1 is: ${1 + 1}
</body>
</html>
-----
I copied this file into the Tomcat $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/test.jsp
and it works, but it renders: 1 + 1 is: ${1 + 1}
I thought perhaps I missed something so I copied the example from the
Tomcat Distribution jsp2.0 (basic-arithmetic.jsp) it does the same thing.
so...to my question
a) given any simple jsp (not
jdbc etc yet &^) How do I configure a new
application (for example myApp directory)
I presume that I missing a few things here. Any help would be appreciated,
but I am looking for Knowledge Transfer.
Thanks in advance, I have spent the last week doing web searches, looking
through books and I still haven't got it...
Sincerely,
