Hi,
I m using IAS 6.5. I want to use the precompiled JSP classes instead of the original JSP files. I used the jspc tools from 6.5 to create the classes. However, when I take away the original JSP files and just put the precompiled jspc classes there. IAS still looks for the original JSP files and give me 404 error. How do I notify IAS to look at the precompiled JPS classes instead of the original JSP files? There must be some settings that I have missed. Please give me light if you know anything.
Thanks in advance.
Ken

Welcome to the Javaranch, but please take a moment to review our naming policy and change your display name so that it is two names. Thanks.

As for your question, David Ogren's book has a short blurb on precompiled JSP's. It actually refers to a situation where there is no compiling allowed on production boxes, but might apply in your case...

A short paraphrase is: "You must compile your JSPs on a different server, and move both the *.java and *.class files to the compiled_jsp directory of the production server."

the compiled_jsp is maybe a bit skimpy.. the directory is probably:
WEB-INF/compiled_jsp/jsp/APPS/web-module

Mike,

Thanks for your reply. That's what I did. I used jspc command tools from IAS to create precompiled JSP classes in "WEB-INF/compiled_jsp/jsp/APPS/web-module" in another machine (not productive machine). I followed the processes in the document in "iPlanet Application Server 6.5 Developer's Guide" - "http://docs.sun.com/source/816-5786-10/jpgjsp.htm#36857". I also checked the precompiled java files, the package setting is correct. My problem is that IAS does not try to read from "WEB-INF/compiled_jsp/jsp/APPS/web-module" at all. It only tried to read the .jsp files which I already took away, which of course, give me 404 error page. I think there are some IAS settings in Windows registry that I should set to tell IAS to load the precompiled JSP classes directoy instead. However, I cannot find anything about that in sun/iplanet documentation website "http://docs.sun.com/db?p=coll/S1_ipappsrvree65_en" .
Can you tell me more information about David Ogren's book? Or any idea is good to me.
Thanks,
Ken
