Java Servlet Container

1. Download Tomcat version 5.0.25 from http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/.
2. Tomcat does not provide an installation program; it runs from wherever you choose to copy the files and directories.Create a directory (E.g. Tomcat) and Unzip the file.
3. Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the SDK location.
4. Set the CATALINA_HOME environment variable to point to the Tomcat location.
5. To test Tomcat, start server by going to the command prompt and move into your Tomcat installation directory. Change into the bin directory and type startup.
   
   



6. Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:8080/.If you see welcome page , it means you've setup Tomcat successfully.
   
   

Note

Please see the documentation bundle for Tomcat available at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/.

Make sure you don't change the Tomcat port (it should say 8080).
