Here are my notes on Tomcat 4 / Apache / MySQL / Netbeans / Mozilla... Perhaps someone wants to tell me of a suitable place (on Jakarta?) to host documents like this.
Chris --------- 1) Install Apache Install Apache_1.3.22-win32-x86.exe (Windows Installer of latest stable release) to c:\server\apache (actually places it in Apache subdirectory). During installation select the "Run as Service for all Users" option. Verify the installation in Control Panel / Services by checking for Apache. 2) Install MySQL Install mysql-max-3.23.49-win.zip by unzipping and running setup.exe Recommend installing to c:\server\mysql Create c:\winnt\my.ini with the following contents: [mysqld] basedir=C:/projects/mysql datadir=C:/projects/mysql/data When you are done add c:\server\mysql\bin to the path environment variable. You can get MySQL-Front from www.mysqlfront.de if you need a graphical front end for the database. Also available is MyODBC, which allows MySQL to be connected to by applications utilising ODBC. 3) Install Java 2 Standard Edition 1.4 Run the J2SE installer, and choose to install to c:\Program Files\Java\J2SE. Install all components and set it as a plugin for all browsers Add the following to the PATH variable: c:\Progra~1\J2SE\bin. Install Tomcat 4.0.4 beta 1 LE Download Tomcat 4.0.4 beta 1 LE (for JDK 1.4) and run the installer. Take care to install Tomcat as a Service when offered the option by the installer. Set the following environment variables: JAVA_HOME - c:\Progra~1\Java\J2SE CATALINA_HOME - c:\Progra~1\Java\Tomcat Integrate Tomcat and Apache Stop the Tomcat and Apache services. Then download mod_webapp from jakarta.apache.org. Extract libapr.dll to c:\winnt\system32. Also extract libapr.dll and mod_webapp.so to c:\server\apache\modules. Add the following lines to httpd.conf: LoadModule webapp_module modules/mod_webapp.so AddModule mod_webapp.c You need to configure a connector in httpd.conf (examples shown for the modules you can export initially - remove the comments to enable them): <IfModule mod_webapp.c> WebAppConnection warpConnection warp localhost:8008 WebAppInfo /webapp-info #WebAppDeploy examples warpConnection /examples #WebAppDeploy webdav warpConnection /webdav </IfModule> Before restarting Apache download Service+ from ActivePlus and use it to set Apache as depending on Tomcat. Then restart Apache (Tomcat will restart automatically). 4) Install JDBC Driver for MySQL Download the MySQL JDBC driver. Open the file (mm.mysql-2.0.11-you-must-unjar-me.jar) in WinZip and extract mm.mysql-2.0.11-bin.jar and place it in c:\program files\java\j2se\jre\lib\ext. It will now be automatically available to Java programs, without needing to add it to the classpath. 5) Install Mozilla Plugin Copy the np* files from C:\Program Files\Java\J2SE\jre\bin to C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Plugins. Restart Mozilla 6) Install NetBeans Install NetBeans to c:\Program Files\Java\NetBeans. The installer will automatically detect the JDK. Netbeans can debug Tomcat, if you want to enable this first remove the existing Tomcat Service: net stop "Apache Tomcat" c:\progra~1\java\tomcat\bin\tomcat.exe -uninstall "Apache Tomcat" Next install the modified Tomcat service which is enabled for debugging: Tomcat.exe -install "Apache Tomcat" c:\progra~1\java\j2se\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll -Djava.class.path=c:\progra~1\j ava\tomcat\bin\bootstrap.jar;c:\progra~1\java\tomcat\bin\servlet.jar;C:\Prog ra~1\Java\J2SE\lib\tools.jar -Xint -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_ socket,server=y,address=12999,suspend=n -Dcatalina.home=c:\progra~1\java\tom cat\ -start org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap -params start -stop org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap -params stop -out c:\progra~1\java\tomcat\logs\stdout.log -err c:\progra~1\java\tomcat\logs\stderr.log Make the service depend on MySQL as before Once Tomcat has been restarted go to Netbeans, and select the Debug / Attach menu. Seelect JPDA as the Debugger Type, Socket Attach, the hostname of the machine Tomcat is on, and 12999 as the port. It is now possible to debug the running Tomcat server. To assist debugging mount the Tomcat Sources in the Netbeans explorer: C:\Program Files\Java\J2SE\src C:\Program Files\Java\Tomcat\src\catalina\src\share C:\Program Files\Java\Tomcat\src\catalina\src\test C:\Program Files\Java\Tomcat\src\jasper\src\share -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of l.marot Sent: 21 March 2002 08:08 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Tomcat 4.0 / Apache I've been playing for several months with tomcat as a standalone server and it works fine but i'd like now to make it work with apache. I've heard a lot about difficulties using mod_webapp, mod_jk, mod_jserv.... could someone show me the right way ? my conf : Apache 1.3.23 / tomacat 4.0 / Win2K -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
