I've been trying to get tomcat and netbeans to work properly on my new computer. I'm running a windows XP computer.
I have been able to get tomcat and netbeans to install successfully. However I've been unable to get them to work together correctly. I've tried installing from the executable and running the standalone version. I've removed the standalone and uninstalled/reinstalled the version with the installer. I've tried installing some software that works on our production servers just fine. It currently gives me ServletException when I try to load the / directory in my browser. I have another strange issue as well. The servlet code examples that come with tomcat work just fine but bundled jsp code examples do not they all seem to throw an AbstractMethodError exception. Any help and or suggestions would be much appreciated. I'd be happy to provide some of the trace roots if you think it will help in diagnosing what I did wrong in seting everything up. Thanks in advance, Tom Burton
