Help Please ! - Java Server setup

Hi,

Please can anyone help me, I am studying for an MSc in computing and I am evaluating ASP against JSP for my thesis.

I have set-up PWS and am currently working with ASP with this server @ home. However I am a little 'stuck' as to where can I get a free/demo version of a java server so that I can download and install on my PC to test some working of JSP.

Awaiting a relpy (thanks in advance)

You can try the JSWDK which can download from the sun web site. It will do the job.

You can try the JavaWebServer2.0 trail version which is easy to install and to a certain extent works very well with Servlets as well as JSP.

You really should use the proven open source TOMCAT JSP/Servlet engine: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html

Tomcat is probably your best option- it is a production quality server, it is open source and it has no problems setting up WebApps correctly - something I had trouble with on the jswdk. Then again the jswdk is closer to the PWS server so if you were comparing speed you would have a fairer comparision. But I suppose if you are comparing speed you will need production servers for both.

It would be interesting to see your conclusions when this work is complete.
