JBOSS

Hi
Can any body tell me how can i use jboss server 3.0.I new this server.I don`t know how to use ,and i want to know how to run simple servlet file using jboss

hi,
its the same procedure as with other web servers...
In jboss 3.0 - its a bundle of catalina servlet engine + jboss appserver. so, to run your servlet class
- create a 'classes' folder under 'jboss_home'\catalina\webapps\root\'classes'
- put your servlet classes under this folder.
- to initiate this from the browser, you can check the url as
for more info...[URL=http://www.apache.org]catalina related info should be good resource...
hth!!

Hi,
Just done this, and now I am fighting with JBoss and JDBC, but that is another story...
If you just want to run servlets it is simpler to user the standrard JBoss 3 version that is bundled with Jetty instead of the one bundle with tomcat. Download, install, make your war-file and put it in the deploy directory and thats it.
Good luck

Hi vijay
I downloaded jboss3.0.So when i start this serverand wen i enter url like
http://localhost:8082 then showing the administration page .But i didn`t see in jboss direcroty as catalina direcoty. i saw only these five directories only.
1)bin
2)client
3)docs
4)lib
5)server
So i didn`t see catalina direcotry in this Jboss/

hi
i downloaded another jboss server with tomcat successfully.but when i start catlaina server its showing error like this
"cant find the file "-Djava.dirs='(or one of its components).Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all required libraries are afailable".
What can i do now ....

Hi,
According to the errors displayed, its everything to do with the classpath settings. you can set it right by running the setclasspath.bat under catalina\bin dir..then run startup.bat file in the same folder...
Anyways...
If i read your message/requirement correctly, you want to use a 'webserver' for testing servlets/jsps...not a whole set of appserver+webserver bundle...if thats the case...try doing this...
download the tomcat(catalina is part of this - its a servlet engine) part from tomcat.apache.org site...
And run the startup.bat file available in %tomcat_home%\bin directory after the setting the classpath...
this should isolate the appserver related issues...
