not sure if this is right forum, I am beginner completing the Head First Servlets and JSP book. Stuck on page 89.

using JDK 1.6, Tomcat 5.0, on XP

environment variables are set as follows
CLASSPATH= C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin
JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin
TOMCAT_HOME = C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.0
the servlet is compiled, and calls the following result.jsp


when the result.jsp is called the result is



Anybody any ideas?

Thanks


when in doubt put it in parenthesis and stick a dollar sign in front of it, only good can come from this.

Why is JAVA_HOME pointing to the bin folder?

Also, there is no need for your CLASSPATH environment variable to point to the JDK/bin directory.

thanks guys

I set my JAVA_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0

and a lot of other things, including an article by Elliotte Rusty Harold on classpaths

The joy of my first servlet JSP working

I'm a newbie to OO, I have completed Head First Java, XHTML CSS, Ajax, OOAD, Design Patterns and read half of Larman. The hardest thing I have encountered so far is environment variables.

Cheers
