Java Servlets and JavaServerPages (JSP)
274 Netscape Enterprise Server Administrator’s Guide
Startup Servlets. In this field, enter the name of servlets to be loaded when
the web server starts up. You do not need to include the
.class
extension.
Session Manager. If you have a session manager class, enter its value here.
Reload Interval. This is the interval in seconds the server waits before
reloading servlets and JavaServer Pages if they have changed. Specify an integer
value here between 0 and 600 inclusive. The default value is 5 seconds.
Configuring Servlet Attributes
If you want to specify input parameters, class paths, or virtual translations for a
servlet, you need to individually configure the servlet. Do this in the Configure
Servlet Attributes page of the Servlets tag in the Server Manager.
Note
When you configure a servlet through the Configure Servlet Attributes page, the
servlet is automatically added to the
servlets.properties
file in the
Enterprise Server’s
config
directory.
In this page, you can specify the following fields:
Choose Servlet. Specifies the servlet to edit. Upon choosing the servlet from
this drop-down list, the servlet’s information is displayed in the page (Ignore
this field if you are adding a new virtual path entry).
Servlet Name. Specifies an identifier for the servlet. This identifier is used
internally by the Enterprise Server; it is not used in the URL for accessing the
servlet. This identifier can be the same name or a different name than the
servlet class name.
Servlet Code (class name). Specifies the name of the servlet’s main class file.
The
.class
extension is optional. Do not specify any directories in this field.
Servlet Classpath. This is the absolute pathname or URL to the directory or
zip/jar file containing the servlet. The classpath can point anywhere in the file
system. The servlet classpath may contain a directory, a
.jar
or
.zip
file, or a
URL to a directory.(You cannot specify a URL as a classpath for a zip or jar file.)
If the servlet classpath is not a registered servlet directory, you must
