This is a step-by-step guide to create a "contract-first" web service with Apache CXF. It's a lot easier than doing the same thing with Spring-WS. The project uses standard Maven directory layout. Define the data types ( src/main/resources/hello.xsd ):

The default servlet for Tomcat is declared in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml :
<servlet>
<servlet-name>default</servle...
Therefore, static content is rendered by the default configuration unless you override it with your own definitions.
If you want to allow directory listing, just change the listing parameter to true :
<init-param>
<param-name>listings</para...
Change the welcome-file-list to display a default page in lieu of a directory listing:
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>home.xhtml</...
Welcome pages are defined at the Web application level.

1. mvc:default-servlet-handler Configures a handler for serving static resources by forwarding to the Servlet container's default Servlet. Use of this handler allows using a "/" mapping with the DispatcherServlet while still utilizing the Servlet container to serve static resources. HandlerMapping: org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleUrlHandlerMapping Handler: org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleUrlHandlerMapping Attribute Description default-servlet-name The name of the default Servlet to forward to for static resource requests. The handler will try to auto-detect the container's default Servlet at startup time using a list of known names. If the default Servlet cannot be detected because of using an unknown container or because it has been manually configured, the servlet name must be set explicitly. 2. mvc:view-controller Defines a simple Controller that selects a view to render the response. HandlerMapping: org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleUrlHandlerMapping Handler: org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.ParameterizableViewController Attribute Description...

This is a simple Hello World application with Spring 3 MVC. Like the default Apache HTTPd welcome page, it displays " It works! " when successfully deployed. The sole purpose is to show the minimum elements needed to setup Spring 3 MVC.
I use Maven since it's so much easier than downloading the dependencies manually.
Directory layout:
./src
./src/main
./src/main/webapp
./src/...
pom.xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project...

Build with:

The resulting webapp is target/springmvc.war .

Tomcat allows you to create multiple server instances for the same installation. The installation directory is identified as CATALINA_HOME , the instance directory is identified as CATALINA_BASE . Here are the steps: Create a base directory for the new instance, for example: /home/nogeek/tomcat1 . Create the subdirectories:
mkdir -p /home/nogeek/tomcat/{bin,conf,logs,temp,w... Copy web.xml from the installation directory: cp $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml /home/nogeek/tomcat...

CATALINA_HOME is the root directory where Tomcat is installed.
CATALINA_BASE is the same as CATALINA_HOME for single instance Tomcat configuration. For multiple instance configurations CATALINA_BASE is the root of that instance.
The startup script prints out the values of CATALINA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE at startup:
Using CATALINA_BASE: "C:\Apps\tomcat-7.0.22"

Linux services startup order in general: kernel runs /sbin/init /sbin/init reads /etc/inittab and runs script defined by this line:
si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS switches to runlevel defined by id:3:initdefault: which causes /etc/init.d/rc to be called with the current run level. /etc/init.d/rc calls the scripts under the /etc/rc <current_run_level> .d directory (symbolic links to actual scripts under /etc/init.d/ ) in this order: The KILL scripts first (scripts with name starting with K, i.e., rc?.d/Knn name ): "script_name stop" then, the START scripts (scripts with name starting with S, i.e., rc?.d/Snn name ): "script_name start" Within each group (KILL or START), run scripts from lower priority number (i.e., the nn in the symlink name) to higher priority number. The Upstart init daemon does not use /etc/inittab . Instead, it...

The easiest way to undeploy a web application in Tomcat is probably to simply delete the WAR file while Tomcat is running . Tomcat will do the cleanup after the WAR is deleted.
If you deleted the WAR (or the application directory) when Tomcat is not running, Tomcat will try to deploy the deleted application at startup and will fail.

This is a simple web application with a single servlet and a single JSP page. It is intended to be a test bed for JSTL tags. You may want to store all syntax, rules, and exceptions in your head, but in my opinion nothing beats a simple test program that allows you play with it all you want. So here it is (build with Maven ). Prerequisites: Maven: http://maven.apache.org/ . You don't need any prior knowledge of Maven, but you need to install the binary. JBoss: http://jboss.org/jbossas/downloads/ , or Tomcat: http://tomcat.apache.org/ if you don't run the SQL tests. You need to know how to deploy a web application (shh! Don't tell your boss it's just copying a file to the deployment folder). Steps: The directory...
