Okay. Thanks, John. Any idea why nothing else will run after I run a servlet? Tomcat continues to refer to the servlet files, which are not part of the JSP. I can't even run a simple html page. It is like the servlet takes over, but where and how? The work folder remains empty. See earlier in this thread for logs and error messages.

For example, when a JSP is compiled into a servlet, Tomcat stores the .java file for that servlet in it's work folder.
