Tomcat 4.01 - Axis installation ......

[Suresh Marella <Su...@divine.com>]

HI ALL,

I was on vacation for past two days. Today I have opened my mail box and saw
few mails. I have noticed that some of our friends have few issues with
Tomcat 4.01 and Axis instillation (integration).

In reality ...it is very simple, Please follow the following steps.

I assume that 

1.	You have Tomcat 4.01 zip (jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1.zip) file is
available with you
2.	You have xml-axis-beta2 zip (xml-axis-beta2.zip ) file is available
with you.


Coming to the Tomcat installation 

1. 	Unzip Tomcat 4.01 (jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1.zip) into C:\ . ( You can
also unzip under any drive.)

2.	By default it creates a directory called "jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1". If
you had installed under c:\  then you see all unzipped tomcat files under
c:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1 directory.

3.	Rename "c:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1" directory as "c:\tomcat" (This is
purely for our understanding only). You can still proceed with the same
name. In other words rename the "jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1" directory as
"tomcat".

4.	That's it "Tomcat 4.01" installation is over"



Coming to the xml-axis beta-2 installation 

1. 	Unzip xml-axis-beta2.zip file into C:\ ( You can also unzip under
any drive.)
2.	By default it creates a directory called "xml-axis-beta2" under C:\.
(i.e. c:\xml-axis-beta2)
3.	Click "c:\xml-axis-beta2" or open the "c:\xml-axis-beta2" directory.

4.	Find "webapps" directory.  (i.e. c:\xml-axis-beta2\webapps)
5.	You will find a directory called "axis".
6.	Copy the "axis" directory.
7.	Open c:\tomcat directory .... then go to "webapps"  directory under
c:\tomcat (i.e. c:\tomcat\webapps)
8. 	Paste the  copied "axis" directory under "c:\tomcat\webapps"
directory.
9.	Now the axis is pasted as c:\tomcat\webapps\axis.

That's it .. integration of "tomcat - axis" is over.


Please include tomcat's lib directory into CLASSPTAH's environment
variables.
Please include "C:\tomcat\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib" into classpath.
Please include "C:\tomcat\bin" into PATH environment variables.

Go to "C:\tomcat\bin" directory and click on "startup. bat" file and work
with "Tomcat4.01 - axis" 


Feel free to get back to me for any further assistance.
