Installation of JavaStack

  1. Create a folder with permission to write (in your user folder or in C:\temp). For example: C:\temp\Tomcat

  2. Copy the following folders from C:\Programs\JavaStack\apache-tomcat-9.0.89 to C:\temp\Tomcat

    • conf
    • logs
    • temp
    • webapps
    • work

Note: to reduce space, you can delete the folders docs and examples from webapps.

  1. Create the file sj.bat in C:\temp\Tomcat

  2. Execute the sj file:

    C:\temp\Tomcat>sj

This will have defined the variables:

set CATALINA_BASE=C:\temp\Tomcat
set CATALINA_HOME=C:\Programs\JavaStack\apache-tomcat-9.0.89
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Programs\JavaStack\jdk1.8.0_131

Start Tomcat

  1. Steps of “Installion of JavaStack”

  2. Go to your Tomcat folder and execute the sj.bat file: 
    C:\temp\Tomcat>sj
  3. Start the Tomcat server with the command: 
    startup

  4. Start the browser and write the address:
    http://localhost:8082

  5. Close the Tomcat server with the command: 
    shutdown

Create a Web page on the server

  1. Steps of “Installation of JavaStack”

  2. Go to your Tomcat folder and execute the sj.bat file: 
    C:\temp\Tomcat>sj

  3. Create a folder called ‘firstWeb’ in the webapps folder of the CATALINA_BASE folder.

  4. Create the index.html file in the webapps\firstWeb folder with some html content

  5. Start the Tomcat server as in step 4 of Start Tomcat:

    startup
  6. Start the browser and write the address:
    http://localhost:8082/firstWeb

Create a Servlet

  1. Steps of “Installation of JavaStack”

  2. Go to your Tomcat folder and execute the sj.bat file: 
    C:\temp\Tomcat>sj
  3. Create the folder structure of  ”Servlet1” application in the Tomcat installation
    • Create folder “Servlet1” in webapps folder of Tomcat
    • Create folder WEB-INF in webapps\Servlet1\ folder
    • Create folder classes in webapps\Servlet1\WEB-INF folder
      CATALINA_BASE
└── webapps
    └── Servlet1
        └── WEB-INF
            └── web.xml
            └── classes

  4. Create the  HelloWorld.java file in the webapps\Servlet1\WEB-INF\classes folder. HelloWorld.java

    import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class HelloWorld extends HttpServlet{
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
      throws ServletException, IOException {
        PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
        out.println("Hello World");
    }
}
  5. Compile with the command javac: 
    javac HelloWorld.java

  6. Create the web.xml file in C:\temp\Tomcat\webapps\Servlet1\WEB-INF folder:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<web-app>

<servlet>
  <servlet-name>primer</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>HelloWorld</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>primer</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/start</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

  7. Start the Tomcat server as in step 4 of Start Tomcat:

    startup
  8. Start the browser and write the address:
    http://localhost:8082/Servlet1/start
