'''Installation help for Axis on [http://www.mortbay.com/jetty Jetty]'''

Jetty is a small, pure-Java, open source HTTP server and servlet container.  Note: Jetty is included in some distributions of JBoss.

To install Axis under Jetty:

 * copy/move $AXIS_HOME/webapps/axis to $JETTY_HOME/webapps/axis 
 * modify $JETTY_HOME/etc/jetty.xml to reflect the new webapp.  You need to add the following: 

      <Call name="addWebApplications"> 
          <Arg>/axis/*</Arg> 
          <Arg><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="."/>/webapps/axis</Arg> 
       </Call> 
 
 * copy xerces.jar to $JETTY_HOME/ext 
 * copy activation.jar (from Sun's Javabeans Activation Framework) to $JETTY_HOME/ext 
 * delete $JETTY_HOME/ext/crimson.jar (or rename to *.notused) 
 * copy xml-apis.jar to $JETTY_HOME/ext 
 * add $JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar from the JDK to the Jetty classpath (modify your startup script) 

My Jetty startup command under Windows is:

java 
-D"jetty.class.path=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar" 
-D"jetty.home=%JETTY_HOME%" 
-jar "%JETTY_HOME%\start.jar" 
"%JETTY_HOME%\etc\jetty.xml"

Start Jetty and verify your happyaxis.jsp installation per the Axis documentation.

These instructions apply to Jetty 4.2.x, Axis 1.1rc2, and possibly later versions.
