Installation with JServ 1.1

    How does one go about installing JGenerator with JServ 1.1?

    The documentation gives some sort of pseudo-instruction, but it appears to have information missing.

    e.g.:
    "1. Copy the jgenerator binaries to ."
    and
    "servlet.jgenerator.initArgs=com.iv.flash.installDir="

    Any further information would be a great help.

    BTW: fantastic work :)

      here is some excerpt from an email I once received from t.kars@themeda.com,
      he modified JGenerator a little bit to make it work with JServ (just one
      line of code).
      you may try to do the same stuff or try to contact him.

      -------------------
      The "/pp" is what is called a "zone". I  use it to connect certain URL's to
      a JVM listening to another port (we host multime sites with multiple
      applications on one server).
      Some other people use zones to regulate security. Anyway, I think the
      concept of "zones" is now called a "webapp" in Tomcat.
      I have fixed my problem for JServ: I only changed one line, it was in the
      method you described, thanks:

      old:
              return req.getRealPath( req.getServletPath() );
      new:
              return req.getPathTranslated();

      Now it works. I don't know if this would break the implementation for other
      servlet-runners, perhaps you can test it (I don't have ServletExec or
      Tomcat).
      -------------------

      he is talking about this method:

          /**
           * Returns absolute path of requested template
           */
          protected String getRequestedFileName( HttpServletRequest req ) {
              return req.getRealPath( req.getServletPath() );
          }

      in class com.iv.flash.servlet.GeneratorServlet

      I will try to fix the problem later on, but now you have to do something
      like this.
