Configuring WebAccess to Use a Java Servlet Engine Other Than the Novell Servlet Gateway or Tomcat Servlet Engine

If you use a Java servlet engine other than the Novell Servlet Gateway or the Tomcat servlet engine, the servlet engine needs to be JSDK 2.0 and JDK 1.1.6 compatible.

After you've installed WebAccess, complete the following steps to configure WebAccess to work with the Java servlet engine:

  1. Modify the Java servlet engine's servlet properties file to include the settings provided in the sample WebAccess servlets.properties file.

    The sample servlets.properties file is located in the \internet\webacces\other directory of each GroupWise 6.5 Support Pack.

  2. In the webacc.cfg and webpub.cfg files, modify the Templates.path setting to replace java/servlets with the path to the servlet root directory.

    The files are located in the novell\webaccess and novell\webpublisher directories on the root of the server.

  3. Add the WebAccess jar files (ldapfilt.jar, ldapjdk.jar, njgwap.jar, njweb.jar, spellservlet.jar, xalan.jar, and xerces.jar) to the class path.

    On a NetWare server, the jar files are located in the java\lib directory. On a Windows server, the files are located in the novell\java\lib directory.
