Hi,

I want to know if anyone has successfully deployed the eclipse help webapp
on Tomcat where both Tomcat and Apache httpd share the same folders for
document root.

I am getting the error from httpd: "The requested URL
/topic/org.eclipse.help.base/doc/help_home.html was not found on this
server.". In addition to this, the images are not loaded properly.

This is when I try to deploy the help webapp on my shared hosting server
which provides tomcat hosting, but unfortunately, the tomcat shares the
document root with the httpd.

This however works fine on standalone tomcat (i.e. without httpd) on my
desktop.

I am using Eclipse Ganymede and the instructions I followed are from:

http://help.eclipse.org/ganymede/topic/org.eclipse.platform. doc.isv/guide/ua_help_war.htm

You can see the error messages on http://www.araneidae.info/

Any hints on getting this working would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Mrinal

I took a look at that site - it's pretty hard to determine what is
happening based on what I see. It appears jsp files are the only ones
which load successfully, .html, .gif and .js files all fail. I also
tried to open http://www.araneidae.info/toc which should be the URL of
the TOC servlet and that failed also. The key to the ability of the
Webapp to run as a war file is the ServletBridge.

I can only guess at the problem based on the symptoms, maybe the Eclipse
runtime has not been able to write to a workspace area. Maybe the jsps
are not running via the servlet bridge but are being loaded directly.
