If you're just starting out with Tomcat, you should probably use the current version (5.5.15) rather than something that's over a year old and does not implement the current servlet spec. It's also risky to install Tomcat in a directory path with spaces in the names - creates confusion for lots of programs and scripts. With the current Tomcat level, create a file called [desired_app_name].xml in the conf/Catalina/localhost directory. Within that file, put in a <Context> tag with the docBase attribute set to "E:\Tutorial". You should now be able to reference the tutorial pages via the URI: http://[your_site_name]/[desired_app_name]/[page_name].html I've never used 4.1, so I don't know if the above is applicable to that level. You may have to put your <Context> tag inside conf/server.xml instead, and you will then need a path attribute to specify [desired_app_name]. Take a look at: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/context.html - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
