Hey !! thanxx a lot for this incredible stuff.. please tell me how to upload the database settings and files , as mine web page has to connect to the database ...
ReplyDeleteThe above article is for free hosting and it don't provide database as this is for static site and to test our webpages, servlets, etc... So they are not providing the database. You have to buy the domain and space for that.
ReplyDeleteHey .. but http://free.hostingjava.it has a sqlconsole that opens a phpmyadmin page.
ReplyDeleteI Tried making database and even succeeded...but now i cant log in back into that... i thought if i could configre that phpmyadmin then it could also support the database... please take a look .. if anyhow i could use my database...
Use localhost as a connection URL it'll automatically connect. and id password that u have to login db.
ReplyDeleteConnection con = DriverManager.getConnection("localhost", "username", "password");
Thanksss for this article!! But I have problem...I working on servlet and follow your steps. I have three packages (called "Clases", "Datos", and "Presentacion")...and placed each file .java in their respective folder ( WEB-INF/classes/Clases; WEB-INF/classes/Datos; WEB-INF/classes/Presentacion), but when I try to open the jsp file in the server following happens:
ReplyDeleteorg.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP:
An error occurred at line: 6 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Clases.LineaPedido resolves to a package
An error occurred at line: 7 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Clases.Pedido resolves to a package
An error occurred at line: 8 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Clases.Cliente resolves to a package
An error occurred at line: 10 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Datos.ProductoDA resolves to a package
An error occurred at line: 12 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Datos.ProductoDA resolves to a package
An error occurred at line: 13 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Clases.Producto resolves to a package
any suggestions?
Did you checked the lines of your java file described in above error like
ReplyDeleteAn error occurred at line: 6 in the generated java file
Only a type can be imported. Clases.LineaPedido resolves to a package
And index.jsp file must be compiled means the jsp file you upload to the server is from the web/index.jsp that is compiled file of index.jsp
Did you uploaded web.xml file to the server??
Hi, I have a 404 problem, I don't know how configure the catalina.policy
ReplyDeletegrant codebase "file:/home/hostingjava.it/" {
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*", "read";
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "getAttribute";
permission java.io.FilePermission "/home/hostingjava.it//-",
"read,write,delete";
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission
"accessClassInPackage.org.apache.tomcat.util.*";
}
@jo@o you don't need to configure any file. But you must upload "web.xml" file to the server and i didn't used it much as i have my own space (Website) for java. I wrote the article for those who want to just test the code.
ReplyDeleteFile to be upload:
JSP pages, classes , web.xml , servlet classes, library files, etc....
