I wanted to try a new web server and learn to use it.
The webserver is Resin.lets try.
steps: Prerequisite: JDK 5.0 or later version.(i didn try with 1.4 , so i am not sure.) 1.Download Resin from Caucho .( ofcourse :) )
2.Unzip the .tar.gz file.( yes, for linux download the .tar.gz file)
3.Open a command prompt and navigate into the resin folder .
4.In the command prompt type ./configure
if u get an error ”checking for C compiler default output file name… configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables” .
the solution is
for Ubuntu/Kubuntu on 32 bit processor : instal glibc-devel.
for Ubuntu/Kubuntu on 64 bit processor : instal libc6-dev-amd64.
in the command prompt type make (if your ./configure command was succesful.)
in the command prompt type make install.
If everything goes fine till here then the installation of Resin web server is complete.
To start the server , in the command prompt navigate into the bin folder and the type the command ./httpd.sh.
Open your favourite web browser and type http://localhost:8080.You should get the welcome page.
If you get an error that “tools.jar is not in the classpath” , open resin.conf file placed inside conf folder and
replace the tag
<java compiler="internal" compiler-args=""/>;
with
<java compiler='javac'/>
This should solve the problem.
Restart the server and check in the web browser , you should get the welcome page.
