Tomcat/JSP Question

  Asked By: Rufus    Date: Oct 11    Category: Java    Views: 784
  

I am pretty new to all all of this, but I have a project for work I
need to complete using JSP & Struts. Unfortunatley, it seems I
cannot even get Tomcat to run properly. It runs fine as installed,
with the examples that come with the install, but I cannot get
anything else to run on it. I think it is something with the
Context path. I have tried putting this into an XML file
in /conf/cataline/localhost/ and also in the webapps/appname/
directory. I tried using the manager to deploy it also and still no
luck. I'm pretty sure everything else is correct because all I am
trying to run right now is a simple app copied directly off a cd
from a JSP book. Any information or advice would be greatly
appreciated.

Try just replicate examples  directory with the name
which u want for ur virtual directory. Restart tomcat
and start using it.

I just set up Tomcat 5 on my machine at home. I followed the
instructions that are on the web site for the book  Core Servlets and
JavaServer Pages

Few days back I have upgraded tomcat  from 4.1.29 to 5.0.25 ...

When I deploy  the war file in Tomcat 5.0.25 , and tried to login into the web
page using username and password , the control passes over to next page and in
that page links are there to Edit or Delete a User , when i am clicking on the
link "Edit" i am getting the following error

"java.net.MalformedURLException: Path . does not start with a "/" character"

If the same war file is deployed in Tomcat 4.1.29 ... its working fine  .... here
i am able to edit user info We are using a cocoon frame work  in our project  ,
When ever You click on the Edit link , control goes to Sitemap and searches for
the suitable pattern and calls the particular action

I am also pasting the Stack Trace of the Error :
