Jakarta Tomcat is not only the most commonly used open source servlet engine today, it's become the de facto standard by which other servlet engines are measured. Powerful and flexible, it can be used as a stand-alone web server or in conjunction with another server, like Apache or IIS, to run servlets or JSPs. But mastery of Tomcat is not easy: because it's as complex as it is complete. Tomcat: The Definitive Guide answers vexing questions that users, administrators, and developers alike have been asking. This concise guide provides much needed information to help harness Tomcat's power and wealth of features.Tomcat: The Definitive Guide offers something for everyone who uses Tomcat. System and network administrators will find detailed instructions on installation, configuration, and maintenance. For users, it supplies insightful information on how to deploy Tomcat. And seasoned enterprise Java developers will have a complete reference to setting up, running, and using this powerful softwareThe book begins with an introduction to the Tomcat server and includes an overview of the three types of server configurations: stand-alone, in-process, and out-of-process. The authors show how directories are laid out, cover the initial setup, and describe how to set the environment variables and modify the configuration files, concluding with common errors, problems, and solutions. In subsequent chapters, they cover:
- The server.xml configuration file
- Java Security manager

Reviews for Tomcat
10 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book does an exceptional job of describing the installation, configuration and optimization of Tomcat. It provides detailed commands and code samples that would be helpful to Tomcat administrators in maintaining and troubleshooting their server.
While the introduction says the book isn't necessarily just for administrators, that's where it has the most value. What I was hoping for was more information as to how Tomcat works to process requests and deliver responses. One section of the book I did find helpful was the chapter on clustering and improving server availability.
Overall, I think this is a great reference for someone that is responsible for the regular performance of one or more Tomcat servers but doesn't provide a completely rounded overview.
