It is quite possible to use JSP with Turbine. In order to do so, you
need to tweak the existing configuration in the
TurbineResources.properties file as described below. This is an evolving
document, if there are still errors in this configuration, please subscribe to the
Turbine Users list and let us know. Also note that this file is
checked into Turbine's CVS tree under xdocs/jsp-configuration.xml. We
appreciate all patches and
contributions that improve this document.
In TurbineResources.properties, search for the key values and
modify/verify the following settings:
 |
 |
 |
 |
template.homepage=/index.jsp (or whatever jsp you want for the start
page)
template.login=/login.jsp (or whatever jsp you want for the login
form)
page.default=JspPage
services.JspService.classname=org.apache.turbine.services.jsp.TurbineJspService
services.TemplateService.template.service.name=TurbineTemplateService
services.TemplateService.default.extension=jsp
services.TemplateService.default.navigation=BaseJspNavigation
services.TemplateService.default.screen=BaseJspScreen
services.TemplateService.default.layout.template=/default.jsp
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
If you want to use "complete" JSP pages (rather than using Turbine's
model of having separate files for the navigation components, etc.),
then you must delete (or comment out) the layout.default entry so that
no default layout is used:
ADD the following entry into the properties file:
 |
 |
 |
 |
services.JspService.templates=/templates
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
Place JSP pages in the <app>/templates/screens directory.
Refer to the JSP pages in URLs as .../template/<xxx>.jsp
Also, the servlet jar file (servlet-2.2-CVSHEAD-12-04-00.jar) that comes
with the TDK 1.1a11 and ends up in the ..webapps/<app>/WEB-INF/lib
directory seems to cause JSP page compile errors. If you remove it, the
servlet.jar file that is in the tdk/bin directory will be used instead,
and it should work.
