Using precompiled JSPs on Sun ONE 6.1 SP5
I"m using precompiled JSPs on Sun ONE 6.1 SP5. I have created a virtual server which has one web application deployed as the default web application located at <server-instance>/webapps/myapp. So in the server.xml it appears as :
<webapp uri="/" path="<server-instnce/webapps/myapp"
I have precompiled the JSPs using the jspc tool and created the directory containing the class files and have put them under WEB-INF/classes directory. I also generated the web.xml file with mappings for all jsps.
My problem is that in my web.xml I have specified the ><welcome-file> as index.jsp which used to reside under the <server-instance>/webapps/myapp directory. but now since i'm using precompiled versions i have physically removed that file. And now when i point my browser to the app's URL in the browser, i get the app's directory structure and only when i explicitly point my browser to https://<ip>:port/index.jsp then only the index.jsp page is invoked. I'm confused with this behavior. Do I need to change my docsroot directory to point to where the jsp class files are stored? I dont know what else can be going wrong...
Any help appreciated :D
Thanks
