Re: [cobalt-users] JSP problem

["Jean-Baptiste Bugeaud" <bjb3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
 the WAR structure is the key for everything ;-)

Place any WAR compliant application (zipped or not) into the webapps folder
of Tomcat, run it and voila !

The WAR structure define a easy and secured way to deploy the JSP + servlet,
the root of the structure contain the documents files
a special forlder : WEB-INF contain web informations :

- servlets : WEB-IN/classes
- classes : WEB-INF/classes
- librairies requested : WEB-INF/lib
- parameters : WEB-INF/web.xml

You may use RADAR (see sourceforge) to customize (for instance JDBC or JNDI
urls ) the webapp once deployed !

If you got trouble to allow a user to store files in the webapp, why not
simply make a symlin for a special webapp to the home dir of that user :

./tomcat/webapps/foo-app
to
~/webapps/foo-app

Once done, ask the user to give access to the tomcat process (look at the
owner) to his folder !

Have a look at javaworld and javasoft on the WAR topic for details ...
