1. Foreword
For beginners, Tomcat is a very good choice to execute JSP and Servlet. Tomcat is a product of the Apache organization, and Sun supports it quite well.
2. Download and install
The download address is the official JAVA site: jakarta.apache.org, which is also available in China.
You can download it from this address: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/tomcat/release/. I downloaded the Tomcat32b4 version.
After downloading, unzip it to a directory. I use F: omcat32b4 as an example.
3. Configuration
Select "My Computer" on the desktop (right click)
Advanced
Environment variables
In "System Variable"--->"New"
Enter: JAVA_HOME in the variable name, enter: F:JDK13 in the variable value and then confirm;
In "System Variables"---> ;"New"
Enter: TOMCAT_HOME in the variable name, enter: F: omcat32b4 in the variable value and confirm;
Okay, the configuration is complete, you need to restart the computer before the environment variables can Effective.
Note that other settings of Tomcat can be left unchanged if not necessary. What I will talk about here are the simplest and feasible methods. If you are not sure about your changes, it is still recommended not to change them.
4. Test
(1) Start tomcat:
There is one under F: omcat32b4 in: startup.bat, run it, a Dos window will appear.
(2) Browse
and enter in the browser: http://localhost:8080/ to see what the effect is (Tomcat’s default port is 8080, as long as there is no conflict, you Can be changed), can you see a cute kitten (in fact, I personally think that it looks more like a tiger in terms of color and appearance)
(3) Run
There are JSP Examples and Servlet Examples on this page. Well, test and run them yourself.
(4) Exit tomcat
There is one under F: omcat32b4 in: shutdown.bat, run it, the Dos window will be closed (if you insist on closing the DOS window directly, it is also possible, However, since there is this shutdown.bat, there should be a reason for its existence). (Source: viphot.com)
