Is this a real Tomcat (i.e., one downloaded from tomcat.apache.org), or is it a 3rd-party repackaged version? There are no end of problems with the repackaged junk. > java.io.FileNotFoundException: > /var/lib/tomcat5.5/work/Catalina/localhost/marlowe/org/apache/ > jsp/index_jsp.java Is there a permissions problem here? It looks like the .java file generated from the .jsp could not be read (or perhaps it was never written). Is the userid you're running Tomcat under the same one that it was installed with? Do the JSP examples that come with Tomcat work properly? > Is there something I need to add to my WEB-INF/web.xml file > to tell it to run jsp files? No, as long as you haven't changed anything in conf/web.xml, which is where the JSP servlet is defined. > Can you only run jsp files under the default webapps > directory? Again no, they will compile and run in any webapp deployed in Tomcat. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
