Default Basic question about webapps directory.

Hello. I'm trying to learn J2EE and I have a beginners book which uses
Sun's J2ee server, and apache server on windows XP. I have Apache
server 2.1.0.55.

The book wants me to copy stuff into Apache's webapps directory. But,
when I search my install directory, I cannot find such a subdirectory
under

C:\Program Files\Apache Group


However, when I do a find, in Program Files, I find a few:

C:\Program Files\netbeans-4.1\enterprise1\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7\webapps
C:\Program
Files\netbeans-4.1\enterprise1\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7\server\webapps


A search on My Documents shows up empty.

So, do I need to create webapps under Apache Group? or do I use one of
the webapps that I searched for. The books is mostly Sun J2EE centric,
so it has no instructions on Apache server. I'm a bit confused here.

thanks.

Default Re: Basic question about webapps directory.

I think I solved my own problem. I have been installing apache server
2.1.0.55 and I haven't gotten my stuff to work. One main reason is
because /webapps/ was missing from the install.

I then try installing Apache Tomcat 5. That seems to do the trick.
However, I'm not quite sure what the difference is between the two. I
guess Tomcat is an add on to apache that allows for Java scripts and
servlets. I don't know, I just tried it on whim last night and it
worked. Will have to read up on it later.

Anyways, thanks for listening to me complain!
