HTTP Status 500 - Internal Server Error

Please help me on this. Everytime I'm trying to run the sample .jsp
file, this page is displayed. Why is this so?


type Exception report

message Internal Server Error

description The server encountered an internal error (Internal Server
Error) that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

tools.jar should be in JAVA_HOME/lib (jdk 1.3.1_04).

Mine is also in TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib.

I don't know where it would be if you are using jdk
1.4.

Make sure that your JAVA_HOME environment variable
points to the root of your JDK installation.  For
example, mine is at C:\jdk1.3.1_04.

Make sure that JAVA_HOME/bin is also in your path.  If
you are using a Windows platform, I would install it
in your System PATH variable instead of just your user
path variable.

just my two cents . . . .

Thanks Mark for the reply...

Where can I find tools.jar?..I've tried searching that file in Tomcat
directory but I failed.

Yes, I do have JDK installed in JAVA_HOME environment variable has been
set.

Any more idea Mark?...

Glinn,

It looks like tools.jar is not in your classpath.  Do
you have the jdk (not jre) installed, and is your
JAVA_HOME environment variable set to point at the
root directory of the jdk installation?

/mde/

just my two cents . . . .
