I installed tomcat and:
1. I named the environmental variable to JAVA_HOME and it was set to
c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01
2 I edited the context.xml configuration file and added reloadable="true" to
the <context > tag.
I changed it to <Context reloadable="true">
3 I went to the web.xml file to de-comment the invoker servlet:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.catalina.servlets.InvokerServlet
</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>0</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
4. Next I de-commented the:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
5. I then created a class directory at: C:\TomCat\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF
once there I created a folder named----classes.
When I start TomCat from the command prompt I get server startup in 2092 ms.
(Seems Successful)
But still when I open my browser and type http://localhost:8080/ I get HTTP
Status 404 - / The requested resource (/) is not available.
I'm a little stumped because I have done every possible thing that TomCat has
given in the troubleshooting section of their documentation and also I have
uninstalled JDK and TomCat on a couple of machines but still the same response.
So it must be something I'm doing wrong, but I have no idea what it is. I have
tried numerous of combinations and even tried fresh machines.
Any Thoughts would be appreciated
