OK, so I'm going to have a look at that, since there's a 10-day free trial.

learning tomcat 7 on Linux

2020-04-08 Thread Andy Sloane
Hi,
I have set up a Linux CentOS 7 host, and have installed Tomcat 7...

[root@db3 ROOT]# /sbin/tomcat version
Server version: Apache Tomcat/7.0.76
Server built:   Mar 17 2020 23:48:55 UTC
Server number:  7.0.76.0
OS Name:Linux
OS Version: 3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7.x86_64
Architecture:   amd64
JVM Version:1.8.0_242-b08
JVM Vendor: Oracle Corporation

I would like to learn how to develop webapps.

This is just for a hobby - I'll never sell anything I write, and will never
be a dev.  I currently work doing UNIXy stuff for a big US multinational.
This is just a thing on the side, like learning to play guitar.   Can
someone please suggest some resources?

Many thanks.
