The problem with that approach (admittedly valid if all you care about is getting something working) is that I'm doing this for the educational value, and really want to understand how this works and what I'm doing wrong.
Actually, for other Java development, I have used Netbeans, and like it. Thanks for the help, though. -----Original Message----- From: Mladen Adamovic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, May 20, 2006 2:29 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Directory Structure and Can't Find Resources in Tomcat I would suggest you to install and work with Netbeans 5.0. Netbeans 5.0 have bundled Tomcat which work out of the box. Than you will not have problems like these before deployment.
