Maybe! Tomcat is a servlet container, implementing the Servlet spec (actually specs; there are several versions). If the supplier's application doesn't run on Tomcat, it's not Servlet spec-compliant *or* is not a pure servlet; it is instead relying on implementation-dependent behaviour outside the Servlet spec that WebLogic and JBoss implement, or requires J2EE support that those containers provide but Tomcat does not. If it's a pure servlet but is not Servlet spec-compliant, that is at best a misfeature and at worst a bug. If it requires J2EE features, then you shouldn't be trying to run it under Tomcat or any other pure servlet container; you need a J2EE container instead. JBoss (which is based on Tomcat) has a Community server which is free, as far as I can see. I've not used it, but there are certainly people on this list who use it on a regular basis. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
