Deploying Web Wiewer

rtruban

I am trying to deploy the web viewer to TomCat 6.0.18 using these instructions: <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/deploy/viewerSetup.php'>Installing the BIRT Viewer in Tomcat</a><br />
<br />
When I try to display any reports I get his error:<br />
<br />
<a class='bbc_url' href='http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/frameset?__report=ReportSalesInvoice.rptdesign'>http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/frameset?__report=ReportSalesInvoice.rptdesign</a><br />
<br />
<br />
Apache Tomcat/6.0.18 - Error report <strong class='bbc'>type</strong> Status report<br />
<strong class='bbc'>message</strong> <span class='bbc_underline'>Servlet ViewerServlet is not available</span><br />
<strong class='bbc'>description</strong> <span class='bbc_underline'>The requested resource (Servlet ViewerServlet is not available) is not available.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
The viewer seems to be deployed correctly, so I don't know why it can't find the servlet. I put the rt.jar file into the drivers directory, and did everything else mentioned in directions. Are there any steps not mentioned in these directions I am missing?<br />
<br />
Any advice would be appreciated!<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
<br />

Hi Rob,

For Tomcat 6, the only extra files copied in should be the commons logging JAR to the WebViewerExample/WEB-INF/lib directory which will look like commons-logging-1.1.1.jar or similar. I don't usually copy rt.jar into the drivers directory.
