Re: problem installing tomcat
Hi Hossam,
There's a long while since I last used Tomcat, but I think I remember
something.

Are there any messages when you do this? Is your Java environment properly
set?

I'm not sure about this, but I think you should put "pure" JSP files in the
"webapps/ROOT" directory, which is under "/var/lib/tomcat4".

You can see the port Tomcat is using in the file "/etc/tomcat4/server.xml".
By the way, tomcat config files are located in "/etc/tomcat4". I think that
you are getting the "connection refused" message because you are using the
wrong port number.
Good luck!
