Apache Tomcat 4.0
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat)
was used for this project.
Apache Tomcat 4.0 is the official
reference implementation for Servlet
2.3 and JSP 1.2.
It’s entirely free and has complete
source code available.
Configuring Apache Tomcat







Setting the JAVA_HOME variable.
Specifying the server port.
Enabling servlet reloading.
Enabling the ROOT context.
Turning on the invoker servlet.
Increasing DOS memory limits (older
windows).
Setting CATALINA_HOME (optional).
Setting the JAVA_HOME
Variable






Right click My Computer.
Select Properties.
Select Advance.
Select Environment Variable.
Add JAVA_HOME value and click
OK.
Another way by edit
install_dir/bin/catalina.bat and insert
this line
set JAVA_HOME=C:\J2sdk1.4.0
Specifying the Server Port


By default, Apache Tomcat used
port 8080.
Modifying the port number
involves editing
install_dir/conf/server.xml.
The original element will look something like this :
<Connector className=“org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector”
port=“8080” minProcessors=“5” maxProcessors=“75”
…. />
After
<Connector className=“org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector”
port=“80” minProcessors=“5” maxProcessors=“75”
…. />
Enabling Servlet Reloading


To turn on servlet reloading, edit
install_dir/conf/server.xml.
Find
<!-- Define properties for each web application. …
…. -->

Insert following line just below it
<DefaultContext reloadable=“true” />
Enabling the ROOT Context


Edit install_dir/conf/server.xml.
Uncomment the following line
<Context path=“” docBase=“ROOT” debug=“0” />
Turning On the Invoker Servlet


Edit install_dir/conf/web.xml.
Uncomment following line
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Increasing DOS Memory
Limits




For old version of Windows like

Select properties.
Select memory and change the
Initial Environment from Auto to
at least 2816.
Setting CATALINA_HOME





Right click My Computer.
Select Properties.

and click OK.
Test your Setup


Double click on
install_dir/bin/startup.bat.
Open browser and enter
Http://localhost
