JSPEnvironment Configuration
ABSTRACT To learn about JSP development, you must first build a development environment that complies with JSP specifications. This article introduces three methods for configuring the JSP environment with the Tomcat server as the core based on the principle of practicality. Keyword JSP Engine, web server, Configuration
The JSP (Java Server Pages) introduced by Sun is a dynamic web page development technology executed on the server, which is based on Java technology. When executing JSP, you need to set up an engine for compiling JSP web pages on the web server. You can configure the JSP environment in multiple ways, but the main task is to install and configure the Web server and JSP Engine. The following uses Tomcat as the JSP Engine and uses tomcat, Apache, and IIS as the three web servers to describe how to build a JSP running environment. I. Introduction to related software 1. j2sdk: Java2 software development tool is the basis of Java applications. JSP is based on Java technology, so you must install j2sdk before configuring the JSP environment. 2. Apache server: a common web server developed by Apache to provide web services. 3. Tomcat server: a JSP engine developed by Apache. It has the Web server function and can be used as an independent web server. However, as a Web server, Tomcat does not process static html pages as quickly as Apache, nor is Apache robust. Therefore, we generally use Tomcat with Apache, apache provides services for website static page requests, while tomcat, as a dedicated JSP Engine, provides JSP parsing for better performance. Tomcat itself is a sub-project of Apache, so Tomcat provides powerful support for Apache. Tomcat is a good choice for beginners. 4. mod_jk.dll: Developed by the Jakarta project team of Apache to support Tomcat plug-ins. With this plug-in, Tomcat can be seamlessly connected to Apache. 5. tc4ntiis.zip: Developed by the Jakarta project team of Apache to enable IIS to support Tomcat plug-ins. 2, software download 1, j2sdk version: j2sdk1.4.1 (35.9 MB) Address: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/download.html 2, apache2 version: apache2.0.43 (6.69 MB) Address: http://www.apache.inetcosmos.org/dist/httpd/binaries/win32/ 3, tomcat4 version: 4.1.21 (8.33 MB) address: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/ 4, mod_jk.dll: (136kb) Address: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk/release/ 5108tc4ntiis.zip (220kb) address: http: // Members.ozemail.com. au /~ Lampante/howto/tomcat/iisnt/tc4ntiis.zip and above are free software. 3. Preparations before configuration (1) Prepare a JSP webpage for testing to open a text editor, such as Notepad, and enter the following code and save it as test. JSP (note that the extension is. JSP ). <HTML>
<Head>
<Title> JSP test page </title>
</Head>
<Body>
<% Out. println ("</Body>
</Html> (2) install j2sdk. 1. Install j2sdk in windows and directly run the j2sdk-00004_000001-windows-i586.exe file. install it in a directory according to the installation wizard, for example, F:/j2sdk 1.4.1; 2. Add environment variables (1) if your operating system is WIN 98, you can use NotePad to directly edit autoexec. bat, add the following command line: Path = % PATH %; F:/j2sdk1.4.1/bin
Set java_home = F:/j2sdk1.4.1
Set classpath = F:/j2sdk1.4.1/lib/tools. jar is saved, and the computer is restarted to make the added environment variable valid. (2) If your operating system is Win2000, configure the environment variables as follows. Right-click my computer and choose Properties> system features> advanced> environment variables from the shortcut menu. The environment variables dialog box is displayed, you can edit the environment variables of the system. Add three variables: path, java_home, and classpath. The variable value is the same as the preceding one. Iv. jsp environment configuration solution (I) solution 1: j2sdk + Tomcat in this solution, Tomcat serves as both a JSP engine and a Web server, and the configuration is relatively simple. 1. install Tomcat to directly run the downloaded jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1.exe. install Tomcat according to the general installation steps of Windows programs. During installation, Tomcat is automatically located in j2sdk. For example, install it to F:/tomcat4. 2. Configure the Tomcat environment variable to add a new environment variable tomcat_home with the variable value F:/tomcat4. The addition method is the same as the j2sdk environment variable configuration method. 3. After testing the default service settings, you can run the Tomcat server. Start Tomcat with F:/tomcat4/bin/startup.exe and disable Tomcat with F:/tomcat4/bin/shutdown.exe. (If an out of environment space error is prompted when startup.exeor shutdown.exe is executed, select "attribute" → "Memory" → "regular memory" in the menu of the DOS window ", change "initial environment" from "automatic" to "2816 .) After starting tomcat, open the browser and enter http: // localhost: 8080 in the address bar. If you see the welcome interface of tomcat in the browser, indicates that Tomcat works normally. 4. Test the project. put JSP in the F:/tomcat/webapps/examples/jsp directory, and enter http: // localhost: 8080/examples/JSP/test in the address bar. JSP. If "Hello World!" is displayed in the browser! ", It indicates that your JSP environment has been configured successfully! Because Tomcat itself has the functions of web servers, we do not need to install Apache. Of course, it can also be integrated with Apache. The following describes. (2) solution 2: Although j2sdk + Apache + Tomcat can also be used as a Web server, its processing speed of static html is not as high as that of Apache, and its function as a web server is far inferior to that of Apache, therefore, Apache and tomcat are integrated, and Apache serves as the Web server, while Tomcat serves as the dedicated JSP Engine. The configuration of this solution is complicated, but it can perfectly integrate Apache and tomcat to achieve powerful functions. Note: Because the IIS web server uses port 80 by default, and the Apache default port is also port 80, if you are using the Win2000 operating system and preinstalled with IIS, for convenience, stop the IIS service before performing the following operations. 1. install Apache to run the downloaded apache_2.0.43-win32-x86-no_ssl.exe and install it to F:/apache2. (Note: After apache2.0.43 is successfully installed, you must rename "index.html.en" under" F:/apache2/htdocs" to "index.html", so that the welcome interface of Apache is displayed normally when the default service is tested ). 2. test that the Apache server runs automatically after the default service is installed. Open your browser and enter http: // localhost in the address bar (Tomcat's default port is 80). If you see the welcome interface of Apache in your browser, Apache works properly. 3. Follow the steps in solution 1 to install Tomcat and ensure its normal operation. 4. Copy the downloaded mod_jk-2.0.42.dll to the F:/apache2/modules directory. 5. Create a working file required for the mod_jk module. Open the text editor and enter the following statement: workers. tomcat_home = F:/tomcat4 (let the mod_jk module know Tomcat)
Workers. java_home = F:/j2sdk1.4.1 (let the mod_jk module know jsdk)
PS =/
Worker. List = ajp13 (module version of mod_jk)
Worker. ajp13.port = 8009 (working port of mod_jk)
Worker. ajp13.host = localhost
Worker. ajp13.type = ajp13
Worker. ajp13.lbfactor = 1 save the preceding statement in the F:/tomcat4/conf directory using workers. properties as the file name (note: the file extension is. properties ). 6. Configure Apache. Open F:/apache2/CONF/httpd in a text editor. conf 1) Find "directoryindex" in index.html. add index after var. JSP; 2) in httpd. add the following code to the end of conf (explained in parentheses) loadmodule jk_module modules/mod_jk-2.0.42.dll
(Load the mod_jk module to process connections between APACHE and tomcat)
Jkworkersfile "F:/tomcat4/CONF/workers. properties"
(Location of the workers. properties file required for mod_jk module work)
Jkmount/servlet/* ajp13
Jkmount/*. jsp ajp13
(Send all Servlet and JSP requests to Tomcat through the ajp13 protocol, so that Tomcat can handle them) 3) Save the added requests. 7. Configure tomcat to open F:/tomcat4/CONF/server. XML in a text editor. Because tomcat4 does not enable ajp13 by default, the following code is found: <! --
<Connector classname = "org. Apache. AJP. tomcat4.ajp13connector"
Port = "8009" minprocessors = "5" maxprocessors = "75" acceptcount = "10" DEBUG = "0"/>
--> Annotate the symbol <! --> Delete to enable ajp13. Save the configuration. Now the configuration of Tomcat and Apache is complete. 8. In the overall test, place test. jsp in the F:/tomcat/webapps/examples/jsp directory and start apache2 and tomcat4 in sequence. Open your browser and enter http: // localhost: 8080/examples/JSP/test. jsp in the address bar. If "Hello world! ", Tomcat will work normally after reconfiguration. in the address bar, enter http: // localhost/examples/JSP/test. JSP. If it is different from http: // localhost: 8080/examples/JSP/test. if the JSP results are the same, it indicates that Apache and tomcat are successfully integrated! (3) solution 3: The most common web server on j2sdk + IIS + Tomcat windows is undoubtedly IIS. Normally, IIS does not support JSP, we can use an IIS-to-Tomcat redirection plug-in to enable IIS to send all JSP requests to Tomcat for execution, so that IIS can increase the JSP processing function. If you are used to IIS, try this configuration. (If you have installed the Apache server, uninstall Apache first to facilitate subsequent operations .) 1. Follow the steps in solution 1 to install Tomcat and ensure its normal operation. (For example, to F:/tomcat4); 2. Extract the downloaded tc4ntiis.zip file to the F:/tomcat4 directory. View the files required for the configuration and make sure they are in the following locations: F:/tomcat4/Server/lib/AJP. Jar
F:/tomcat4/Server/lib/tomcat-util.jar F:/tomcat4/bin/native/isapi_redirect.dll F:/tomcat4/CONF/ntiis/workers. properties F:/tomcat4/CONF/ntiis/uriworkermap. properties F:/tomcat4/CONF/ntiis/iis_redirect.reg
F:/tomcat4/log/iis_redirect.log 3. Open F:/tomcat4/CONF/ntiis/workers. properties in a text editor and modify the following values: workers. tomcat_home = F:/tomcat4
Workers. java_home = F:/j2sdk1.4.1 4. Double-click F:/tomcat4/CONF/ntiis/iis_redirect.reg to add the information in this registration file to the Registry, however, you need to modify the key values of the three keys LOG_FILE, worker_file, and worker_mount_file to suit your environment (for example, tomcat in this article is installed in F:/tomcat4, instead of the default C: /tomcat4 ). After adding and modifying, as shown in. 5. Open the Internet Service Manager and add a new virtual directory named Jakarta to the default site. The virtual directory points to F:/tomcat4/bin/native, and start the default site. 6. In Internet Service Manager, right-click the server name and select the "edit"> "ISAPI filter" tab of "properties"> "main attribute" www service, add an ISAPI filter named Jakarta redirect. the executable file is F:/tomcat4/bin/native/isapi_redirector.dll. After the ISAPI filter is added, the Jakarta redirect status is a red downward arrow. After the IIS service is restarted, it becomes a green arrow. 7. Edit and save the server. xml file (same as step 2 of solution 2 ). 8. Restart IIS and tomcat. 9. Test Project: place test. jsp in the F:/tomcat/webapps/examples/jsp directory. Open your browser and enter http: // localhost: 8080/examples/JSP/test. jsp in the address bar. If "Hello world! ", Tomcat will work normally after reconfiguration. in the address bar, enter http: // localhost/examples/JSP/test. JSP. If it is different from http: // localhost: 8080/examples/JSP/test. if the JSP results are the same, the integration of IIS and Tomcat is successful! 5. Setting up the JSP running environment is the foundation for learning JSP technology. There are many types of JSP engines and many configuration methods, and the software version is constantly being upgraded, you can select an appropriate configuration method based on your needs and actual conditions. I hope the JSP environment configuration solutions provided in this article are helpful to those who want to learn JSP.
