next step ?

I've successfully installed apache1.3.12 and tomcat3.1 (I believe because the examples test pages (jsp & servlets) have worked). Ant is also installed (and really cool), as it has built my java applications and placed all files under the webapps dir of /usr/local/tomcat.

I'm a little confused on the context mappings and am just asking for a little guidance because all of the docs I've read so far are short and configured differently. I believe what I've got setup so far is correct, except, when I access the web server, the page goes to where my DocumentRoot vars point to. I think I've got to work on the server.xml file?

How do I override that and make it point to /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myProj w/o having to put in anything extra in the url (i.e. like the examples dir here at the end http://myMachine/examples), I would just like http://myMachine ... I'm sure getting my servlets working is also going to be a prob afterwards (nothing ever goes smoothly), so do I need to do anything extra for those? And how are .war files made?

Also, since apache is a much more robust server than tomcat, how do I make apache do all the work and just use tomcat to serve my jsp's and servlets?

TIA,

Gary

June,

This looks like your JDK might be the wrong version. I compile against JDK1.2.2. What are you using?

  Hi, andy! 
  Thank you! 
  I have built the Tomcat, but I encountered some new problems: 
      1. When I build the Tomcat, Java compile error: 
  /usr/local/jakarta/build/tomcat/classes/org/apache/tomcat/shell/AdminImpl_Stub.java:56: Wrong number of arguments in method. 
                  ref.invoke(this, $method_stopService_0, null, 5971692918487801095L); 
                            ^ 
  /usr/local/jakarta/build/tomcat/classes/org/apache/tomcat/shell/AdminImpl_Stub.java:77: Wrong number of arguments in method. 
                  ref.invoke(this, $method_stopService_1, new java.lang.Object[] {new java.lang.Boolean($param_boolean_1)}, 2030536004644895953L); 
                            ^ 
  2 errors 
      2. When I start tomcat, no class def error" 
   Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tomcat/startup/Tomcat.class 

  Thank you!

June,

Follow these steps:

1) Checkout the jakarta-ant module from the cvs repository
2) Set your CLASSPATH env variable to include tools.jar located in the JDK lib directory
3) Run the bootstrap script located in the jakarta-ant directory
4) Run the build script in the jakarta-ant directory

After these steps, you will be able to build the jakarta-tomcat module.

Andy
