Execution of servlets

Posted by Kishore on January 27, 2002 at 7:07 AM

Dear Rema/Shobha,
To run a java servlet you need to have a jsdk package version 2.0/2.1 and also a browser either IE or NN.First you set the path towards the bin directory of ur jsdk package as

set path=%path%;c:\jsdkk2.0\bin

and then set the classpath to the api directory of jsdk as

set classpath=%classpath%;c:\jsdk2.0\src;

after this two steps

you go the dos prompt and test the working of jsdk by giving following command

servletrunner

to run ur code first compile the program using javac

now execute the program by following command

servletrunner -d srvdir -s c:\jsdk2.0\examples\servlet.properties

where srvdir is the directory where u saved ur servlet file

now go the browser and in the address bar give the following command

http://localhost:8080/servlet/servletfile

where servletfile is the name of java file without extension

now u will get the result
