Tutorial: Installing Tomcat 7 and Using it with EclipseThis tutorial covers Tomcat 7, which supports the servlet 3.0 and JSP 2.2 specs. This means that you can also run servlet/JSP or JSF apps that support the latest versions. I recommend Tomcat 7 over Tomcat 6 for all apps, since Tomcat 7 also supports the older servlet 2.5 and JSP 2.1 specs. But, if you really need to use Tomcat 6, please see the tutorial on Eclipse with Tomcat 6. It takes only a short time to download Eclipse and learn the bare bones basics of using it to build Web apps and deploy them to Tomcat, and all the information you need to do this is described in this tutorial. This time will be very quickly recouped by the savings in development, debugging, and deployment times. To get started with Web apps in Eclipse, you only need to know a very small number of Eclipse features. You can gradually learn the advanced Eclipse capabilities at your leisure. Also note that if you print this page, the entire contents (including the expanded contents of all the accordion tabs below) will be printed.
