Ok. I´ll see them.
My question is: Why there isn´t any specific book about Tomcat??
There is about Weblogic...

Re: Book

A couple of good books - both dealing with Tomcat. "Inside Servlets" by
Dustin R. Callaway - Addison-Wesley is the publisher. The other one is
"Core Servlets and Java Server Pages" - by Marty Hall.
Both have their strong points, and of course the "Core..." book, coming from
Sun deals with Tomcat extensively. However, the "Inside Servlets" book has
a lot of valuable information, as well.
You could also take a look at a couple of other books if performance and
tuning are what you need. "Java Performance and Scalability, Volume 1" by
Dov Bulka, and "Java Performance Tuning" by Josh Shirazi. Both books deal
with performance and tuning your java code and the internals of the JVM.
This should be the starting point in developing optimum performance.
When it comes to optimization of your server, you'll be able to get to the
Tomcat source to do whatever you need to do, but you have to tune with your
overall application environment in mind.

Yes, i´m not developing Tomcat, but i have to install it and configure :P
I know how to install and configure, but i need to optimize the server...

there is also the fact that you are not (or shouldn't be) developing
applicaitons for "tomcat" but rather for a "servlet engine" that supports
the spec (2.2 or 2.3). If you do this a) you can follow the rules laid
out in the spec, which has very good coverage imho, and b) swap easily
between servlet containers.

Yes. But i don't need a simple book saing "just intall and go". I have read
many books about servlets and JSP, and they use Tomcat, but they don´t cover
all configuration. Many of them just install Tomcat and uses the "Hello
World" example.
I´m searching for thread pool configuration, ajp13 tunning and so.
Un saludo.

an opinion i don't find expressed in the archives, so i'll say it once:
just about every book on jsp or servlets ever published uses tomcat as
the example engine. they may not have "tomcat" in the title, but they
all shows how to do the things described in the books specifically with
tomcat. pick one. there are dozens. just imagine the title has "with
tomcat" appended to the end. most of them will have at least one chapter
on how to set up tomcat for the examples in the books. some books won't
go much beyond how to embed java in a page while some will spend a few
hundred pages on taglibs. but you have to look hard to find a current
jsp or servlet book that doesn't tell how to do whatever it's describing
specifically with tomcat. they might not detail administrivia about how
to integrate tomcat with this or that web server, but that docs do that
-more than well enough-. indeed, they do it -really, really- well.
a year ago, i didn't even know how to spell tomcat. i picked up a pretty
horrible book from sams publishing called _pure jsp_ and within a day i
had a working application for database queries at work using tomcat.
it's embarrassing how much information on tomcat is available at any
backwater barnes and noble. if i'd known it was so easy, i would have
done it a long time ago.
