J2ee Server ?

Hi,

What exactly J2EE Server is ? I have read documentation for J2ee 1.4. But still I dont have clear understanding of this technology. Does it contain all the containers i.e. Web container & Ejb container etc?

I think No. I need to install Tomcat separatly to run Jsp/Servlet. Tomcat is the web container. And if I have Tomcate installed on my system, then I dont need J2ee Server. I can simple deploy jsp/servlet and use them.

To use beans should I need to installed the EJB Server separatly ?

Then what exactly the J2EE Server is and what it does?

Thanks

A server to run J2EE applications on, managing request handling,load balancing, having servlet and EJB containers, providing data sources, managing your applications...

BS. Tomcat is a servlet container, and if you really have a J2EE application server like websphere or JBoss installed, it has a servlet container as well, so you won't need Tomcat.

I downloaded the server from the site

http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/download.html

Is this a J2ee Application Server ?

If you mean the Sun Application Server: yes, it's an application server.

It means it have servlet container and ejb container. Becuase it is really a J2EE Server as you said.

>>f you really have a J2EE application server like websphere or JBoss installed, >>it has a servlet container as well, so you won't need Tomcat.

If I have installed this server. Then I dont l need tomcat. Then how I can deploy and run the jsp/servlet.

Read the documentation... when in doubt, there's also a Sun app server board.

Yes absolutly you don't need tomcat to run jsp/servlet. if you already have installed j2ee server. you can deploy and run you jsp/servlet using j2ee server.
