This may be operator error, but I did follow the README directions and built tomcat without a hitch. However, when running the tip 3.3 development version, I'm finding that JSP pages aren't being reliably run on first request. The numguess.jsp example never shows up at all, but a second request does work. I'm running on Mac OS X public beta, which includes a Java2 implementation (java version "1.2.2", Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.3.0, mixed mode, internal release build)). Setting TOMCAT_HOME explicitly may have made a difference, as it seems to load pages more reliably with an absolute path. The 3.1 distribution works great right out of the box. - Patrick -- // Patrick C.
