how to run jsp on tomcat server.

Are you sure tomcat has actually started?

When you first install tomcat and go to localhost you will be taken to the start page, there are already test jsp files installed with tomcat. There also documentation on the start page which you should read before asking others for step by step instructions.

Have you started the tomcat server?

First you have to create JAVA_HOME enviornment variable JAVA_HOME should point to your java installation directory

may be you have missed this step

you have to start the tom cat by clicking startup.bat located in the bin diretory of your tomcat installation :)
