Compiling the Code:

Navigate to the Apache-Tomcat/webapps/WEB-INF/classes directory and compile the servlet Java class BPOServlet.java using the following command:

javac -cp ../../../../lib/servlet-api.jar BPOServlet.java

Running the Server:

Ensure that the $JAVA_HOME variable is set and run the server using the command:

./Apache-Tomcat/bin/startup.sh

Hosting:

After compiling the Servlet class and running the Apache server, access the home page at http://localhost:8888/XpertBPOSolutions/index.html.

Changing Port Number:

To change the port number, open the server.xml file located in Apache-Tomcat/conf/server.xml and modify the port number specified within the <Connector> tag. After making changes, restart the server.

<Connector port="8888" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443"
               maxParameterCount="1000"
               />

Server Shutdown:

To shut down the server, execute the following command:

./Apache-Tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
