Do you need a webapps directory?

>>> mailinglists@(protected) >>>
Hi all,

my environmemt:

OS: Redhat Linux
Platform: Intel x86

TC version: 4.1

tomcat4.conf:
--- cut -----
CATALINA_HOME="/var/tomcat4"
JASPER_HOME="/var/tomcat4"
CATALINA_TMPDIR="/var/tomcat4/temp"
---- cut -----

First: There are a few of hosts and contexts running withouts problems
.. but when I'm setting up contexts in new hosts, I've problems whith
this new ones:

1. I create a hosts AppBase directory like

$HOME/html/servlet/

for the domain diving.co.at

and a DocBase directory for the context

$HOME/html/servlet/myapp

and context path: /myapp

I put a test.jsp[1] file in DocBase.

2. I configure the new host and context in the TC Admininstration Tool
with the settings from 1.

TC is deploying[2] but http://www.diving.co.at:8080/myapp/test.jsp
always returns the error:

HTTP Status 500 ..

javax.servlet.ServletException: org/apache/jasper/runtime/HttpJspBase
...

but an older host http://pronet.at:8080/tomcat/test.jsp with the same
test-file and the same TC engine works fine!?

When I'm looking in the TC-wrok-dir .. there are also the files:

test_jsp.class test_jsp.java

TC is compiling test.jsp .. but returns the error shown above .. why?
What's going wrong there?

THX 4 Help Robert
