can't get Tomcat 5 to work..

Thread view: 
Frances Del Rio - 19 Aug 2004 18:51 GMT
I downloaded Tomcat 5.0.27 from jakarta.apache.org/tomcat the other day,
but I can't get it to work..  followed all instructions (changed 8080 to
a higher no. in sever.xml, but when I try to get to it in browser I get
a 404..  ) I included path to root dir of Tomcat folder in env vars..
when I run startup.bat in DOS prompt DOS prompt simply disappears, what
does this mean??

I recently downloaded JRE and SDK from java.sun and have been compiling
and running java apps for a few weeks now w/no problems..  but can't get
this tomcat thing to work..  and where can I ask?  why is there no
Tomcat newsgroup??  ok, would appreciate any suggestions..  thank you..

There has now been two votes to get comp.lang.java.server-side (I think
that was the planned name), to cover issues about server-side Java,
but there hasn't been enough interest when the issue has gone to vote,
so no group has been created, and the discussion is spread on various
web forums and comp.lang.java.programmer.

Check from archives of news.groups when was the last vote; the next time
the group can be proposed is 6 months from closing of the previous vote.
If you're interested in getting the group, remember to vote for it the
next time the issue comes up for voting.

how exactly do I do this??  pls explain, I'm very interested, thank
you..  am surprised there's no java server programming ng already...
thanks again..  Frances
Frances Del Rio - 24 Aug 2004 14:59 GMT
actually, there IS a tomcat ng, but it has exactly three articles in it,
which is also surprising..
borland.public.bes.appserver.servlet-jsp-tomcat..

    There is a mail list for Tomcat that contains a lot of info.
The archive is at http://mikal.org/interests/java/tomcat/archive/list.

I know about the Tomcat mail list, I was subscribed to it for a few days
last week, it was crazy, my inbox got FLOODED with e-mails most of which
did not pertain to anything I was asking..  I much prefer newsgroups
than a situation where, you know, instead of seeing posts in another
server practically all the posts get sent to yr e-mail inbox, this is
really not very practical..  maybe I will subscribe to it again at some
point if I see I have no choice, but I really think there should be a
java server programming newsgroup..  thank you for yr response..  Frances

You can read the tomcat-user list (and thousands of others) via a
newsgroup interface at gmane.org.

Thanks,

How the Usenet (the newsgroups system) works is that if someone comes up
with an idea of a group that needs to be created, s/he arranges a formal
'RFD' (request for discussion) message to be sent, in which a rough
charter (what topic area the group would cover) of the new group is
described. During the discussion period (from 2 weeks to 2 months,
I think) the charter still can live -- even the proposed group name
can change. The initial RFD message is sent to "relevant groups", so
often groups where it is suspected it would be noticed by people
interested in the group. So, RFD message for comp.lang.java.server-side
could be expected to be seen at least in comp.lang.java.programmer, most
possibly also in comp.lang.java.db (but perhaps not in comp.lang.java.gui).

After the discussion period (if the discussion didn't completely deem
the group worthless), starts the voting period. Again, a message indicating
the start of the voting period (aka CVF message, "Call For Votes")
is sent to relevant groups. Votes are conducted by "neutral third
parties"; there's an (unofficial?) organisation called UVV (Usenet
Volunteer Votetakers) which has provided people to handle most (all?)
of the recent votes.

The criteria to pass the vote is that a group must get at least 100
more for than against votes (yes, it's also possible to actively
oppose creation of a group), and at least 2/3 of the total valid
votes must be for the group creation.

Oh, yes; the above info is only valid for the "big-8" groups, so
hierarchies comp, humanities, misc, news, rec, sci, soc and talk.
For 'alt' hierarchy and regional hierarchies the rules vary by
hierarchy.

For even more details, see:
http://members.fortunecity.com/nnqweb/ncreate.html
http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/faqs/big-eight.html

And as for getting the group (comp.lang.java.server-side) created;
the latest vote failed on June 24th, 2003; so it'd be possible to
start a new group creation process with the RFD round, as the required
settling time after the last failed vote has passed (6 months it is,
I think). The results from the previous vote were 85 for and 5 against,
so there just wasn't enough interest.
