1) go to my computer-properties- advanced tab-environment variables.
Then go for system variables and click new and write:
Variable name: CATALINA_HOME
Variable value: c:\Tomcat 4.1( i.e. specify ur tomcat root folder)
After writing click ok.
2) again do same for setting
Variable name: JAVA_HOME
Variable value: c:\jdk1.4(specify ur jdk folder)
Variable name: PATH
Variable value:
C:\jdk1.4\bin;C:\jdk1.4\lib;C:\Tomcat 4.1\bin;
Variable name: CLASSPATH
Variable value: C:\jdk1.4\lib;C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.0_02\lib;C:\Tomcat\*.jar;
3) write ur serlet source file(helloworld.java)
4) open dos promt & compile ur pgm:
c:\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\ur application name\src\servlet> javac helloworld.java
5) put ur class file in c:\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\ur application name\web-inf\classes\ helloworld.class
6) write ur web.xml-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Hello</servlet-name>
<servlet-class> helloworld </servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>HelloWorld</servlet-name>
<url-pattern> \ ur application name\hello
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
7) start ur tomcat click on startup batch file under c:\Tomcat 4.1\bin\startup.bat
8) give url: http:\\ localhost:8080\ ur application name\hello
9) u will find ur response.
10) If u have problem in compiling ur java file then make a file on notepad and write:-
set path=�%path%�; C:\jdk1.4\bin;C:\jdk1.4\lib;C:\Tomcat 4.1\bin;
set classpath=�%classpath%�; C:\jdk1.4\lib;C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.0_02\lib;C:\Tomcat\*.jar;
save this file as anyname.bat and save in :- c:\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\ur application name\src\servlet
after coming on this dir i.e. c:\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\ur application name\src\servlet
run ur bat flie and compile ur java file
