Hello Again,
Every web application requires a WEB-INF/web.xml file. If that file
isn't there, Tomcat won't treat the directory you created as a web
application. As long as you have WEB-INF/web.xml file, you can place
the JSP files in subdirectories and Tomcat will find them.
Hope that helps,
Zack

What is strange is that the very same applications that did not work in
Slackware 10.1 using tomcat 4.1 do work in windowsxp using tomcat 5.5 .
I was trying to run examples from a book on JSP "The complete Reference"
and I placed the sample code in slackware under the webapps directory,
something like this: webapps/jspcr/chap05/examples/somepage.jsp.
Tomca4.1 does not find the jsp but will find other applications I have
under webapps. This same directory structure was used with Tomcat5.5 in
windows and I have no problem with it: the page somepage.jsp, for
example, shows up.
I am not sure at all what the problem is. And I don't know if this
helps me, but is there a way to log the errors so that I can at least
try to figure out what's wrong ?

Hello,
Everything in the WEB-INF directory isn't directly accessible; meaning,
if you type in something like
http://localhost:8080/myapp/WEB-INF/index.jsp, you will get a 404 error.
Where you should place them is entirely dependent on you. You can write
controller servlets and use a RequestDispatcher to forward to a jsp in
your WEB-INF directory. If you are just using jsp pages, don't place
them in the WEB-INF directory.

I am running into some dificulties with some pages. Some pages show
up and others give me an error 404.
