JBoss.NET - Falling at First Step: %CATALINA HOME%

[fankle]

Hello,

I currently run JBoss-3.0.0 with embedded Tomcat 4.0.3.

I'd like to use JBoss.NET and am therefore looking to move to JBoss-3.2.2 with embedded Tomcat-4.1.24

('m reading the Aberdeen Uni tutorial - http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/~bscharla/teaching/mtp_software/jboss/jboss-net-HelloWorld.shtml)

However when I downloaded the jboss-3.2.2RC1_tomcat-4.1.24 release I found that it did not contain a catalina directory.

There are a whole lot of tomcat jar files and a catalina jar file in \server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat.sar but I'm confused. The tutorial talks about %CATALINA_HOME% in the sense of a catalina directory containing the familar directory structure of \common, \lib etc. In fact the example tutorial instructs me to set my classpath to

set CP=%CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib\servlet.jar ;%CATALINA_HOME%\lib\jaxp.jar

I can't see either of these jars in the distro.

What's going on?

No doubt this is a dumb question but I've searched around and around and around am getting dizzy!

Help much appreciated.

(NB As a final confusion the Aberdeen Uni tutorial does state that it was written with the JBoss4.x_Tomcat4X in mind but I can find no such distro. As far as I know there have only been developer releases of JBoss4)

It is an old tutorial. You want to move/copy jboss-net.sar from server/all/deploy to server/default/deploy so it runs your default instance - assuming you normally run the JBoss default instance.

Probably ignore the CATALINA references in your classpath definition and replace them with fully qualified paths to the necessary JARs.

You want to change your reference for servlet.jar to server/default/lib/javax.servlet.jar. You probably won't need jaxp.jar - it doesn't come with JBoss. If you do need it, download it and reference it.

See how that goes.

Thanks for the help jonlee (and sorry for being so tardy in my thanks)
