Re: GWT Deployment on Web Hosting Sites
Good morning Anuj ! Sorry for the long delay in replyinging ... I asked godaddy and this is what they say: must be on a Java enabled hosting account for servlets to function. These scripts are written in Java, so without a way to handle these the scripts cannot run. Unfortunately this means you will have to upgrade to a Linux Deluxe or Unlimited plan. Thanks for taking the time to write to them. Does this means thats leave alone shared hosting, java servlets won't even work on Economy Plan ($4.77) and it needs Delux plan?? Though a little unclear to me, I'm assuming the above is your question to me/the list. This page, http://www.godaddy.com/Hosting/Legacy.aspx?ci=1234#details implies that Java is only available on GoDaddy's Deluxe and Unlimited hosting plans. I have a hunch, though, that it'd work if all we're doing is uploading the GWT-generated JavaScript to GoDaddy. Probably the sever/client *data* transfers (i.e., files) would need the Java servlets / Tomcat. Note the above are just my speculations ... Thanks for writing ... please write again if you learn anything new, -Kenneth -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: GWT Deployment on Web Hosting Sites
Sorry for the delay in replying to your (Sumit) and Dobes' help. A new academic term started and I have been pretty covered up ... sc As Dobes mentioned, you can definitely use any hosting service, sc like GoDaddy, to deploy your GWT application. Also as mentioned, sc GWT generates regular JavaScript and HTML files than any hosting sc service provider should be able to handle. That's kind of what I thought, but wanted to make sure there weren't any tricks at least for deploying a simple application on GoDaddy. sc If you're using GWT RPC, you will need a hosting service that sc provides a Java server-side environment, supporting the Servlet sc 2.5 specification. I believe GoDaddy *does* have Tomcat, but apparently I need to dig deeper to see if Servlet 2.5 is supported. Also, it might only be for their dedicated server accounts (which I don't have). Guess I'll just have to do some exploratory testing to really understand what they provide or don't provide. Maybe other participants on this mailing list can provide more GoDaddy-specific info? sc Deploying a GWT Application: sc http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/1.6/DevGuideDeploying.html Thanks for the link! Again, sorry for the delay and thanks for you two taking the time to reply to my request. -Kenneth --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Hi Kenneth, As Dobes mentioned, you can definitely use any hosting service, like GoDaddy, to deploy your GWT application. Also as mentioned, GWT generates regular JavaScript and HTML files than any hosting service provider should be able to handle. If you're using GWT RPC, you will need a hosting service that provides a Java server-side environment, supporting the Servlet 2.5 specification. For more details on all the moving parts of a deployed GWT application, both with an RPC backend and without, check out the deployment documentation at the link below.

Re: GWT Deployment on Web Hosting Sites
GWT runs fine, it's just javascript. However, if you want to use the RPC/Servlets system, you'll need Java hosting on the server-side, like tomcat, glassfish, etc.. Relatively few hosts provide this. There are some PHP libraries out there to implement the server-side part of RPC using PHP instead of Java that you could use for PHP hosting sites, which are much more common.
