This tutorial shows you how to build a simple J2EE application. In the tutorial lessons, you add a JRun Server, create a new enterprise application, and write the code for Java servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSP), JavaBeans, and Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB). You learn how to combine these elements to produce a flexible and scalable J2EE application.

2. Install the JDK 1.2 (or later).
3. Include the JDK bin directory in the system path.
4. Download the tutorial files and place them in the following directories:

· Unzip compass.zip in a local directory (referred to as tutorial_install_dir).
· Copy compass.dbn and compass$1.wal from tutorial_install_dir/database into the JRun_Home/pointbase/databases/ directory (JRun_Home is the directory into which you installed JRun).
Solaris and UNIX
· Unzip compass.zip in your home directory.
· Copy compass.dbn and compass$1.wal from tutorial_install_dir/database into the $JRun_Home/pointbase/databases/directory($JRun_Home is the directory into which you installed JRun).
Linux and UNIX with GNU tar and gzip
· tar xzf compass.tar.gz in your home directory.
· Copy compass.dbn and compass$1.wal from tutorial_install_dir/database into the $JRun_Home/pointbase/databases/ directory($JRun_Home is the directory into which you installed JRun).
