I am basically trying to run
servlets on jakarta-tomcat 3.3.1 with IIS as the webserver on a Win 2000 machine. (This combination due to client requirements). I previously ran servlets on Apache and Jserv with no problems. I had a properties file with init args in my original jserv.
My first question is : Do I need to add those init args to the web.xml file in the web-inf directory.
Secondly I did add a param name and value (in the commented init param section) in the default web.xml that came with
tomcat. I then tried to uncomment the section and it gives me an error. Can anyone help me with the method to uncomment stuff in web.xml.
Thirdly, is there any other way to integrate a my.properties files into jakarta tomcat without messing with the xml file.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. I am really frustrated and stuck at this juncture and my non-software background isn't helping either.
Thanks..
Just wanted to add that I could uncomment stuff in web.xml but my param value has & and probably that was causing the error. My main question now is how to integrate a *.properties file into jakarta-tomcat (the prev loc of the *.properties file being added in the conf file of the Apache jserv directory)
