Urgent. Unable to set up JSP in Weblogic server

Question

          Hi,
          I wish to enable JSPs in the weblogic server. i went thru the bea documentation and
          added the following lines in hte weblogic.properties file :
          weblogic.httpd.documentRoot=XXX (The root directory for the jsps.
          weblogic.httpd.register.*.jsp=\ weblogic.servlet.JSPServlet
          weblogic.httpd.initArgs.*.jsp=\ pageCheckSeconds=1,\
          compileCommand=/opt/java1.2/bin/javac,\
          workingDir=XXX,\
          verbose =true
          After this, i started the weblogic. But apparently, it says that all the above properties are undeclared.
          I am not able to go further on this. Could anyone help me out on this.
          I am working on a HP machine.
          thanks in advance. prashant
          

Answer 1

Hi,
          It is really hard to tell exactly what is going on without more information. If all you are using are JSPs, try
          removing the servlet classpath altogether. Put any helper classes into the weblogic classpath.
          Can you get one of the example JSPs working in your environment? This would be a good place to start just to verify
          that your environment is set up correctly.
          Can you post your JSP file that is not working?
          Hope this helps,
