Jetty is an open source servlet container that provides a running environment for Java-based web content, such as JSP and servlets. Jetty is written in Java and its API is released as a set of JAR packages. Developers can instantiate a Jetty container into an object and quickly provide network and web connections for some stand-alone Java applications. (Jetty is an open source software that can be used as an HTTP service and a container for javax.servlet.)
Steps to configure jetty server:
Create server
Configure connector
Configure handler
Configure servlet
Start server
1. Install maven
Maven is based on the Project Object Model (POM), which can be passed A software project management tool that uses short descriptions to manage project builds, reports and documentation.
If you have entered the same Ant targets ten times to compile your code, jar or war, and generate javadocs, you Be sure to ask yourself if there is a less repetitive way that does the job just as well. Maven provides such an option to shift your attention from the job layer to the project management layer. Maven projects already know how to build and bundle code, run tests, generate documentation and host project web pages.
(1) Download and compress the jdk and put it in the /usr/local directory:
[root@master ~]#chmod 755 jdk-6u5-linux-x64.bin
[root@master ~]# ./jdk-6u5-linux-x64.bin
[ root@master ~]#mv jdk1.6.0_05 /usr/local
Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-07 03:16:01+0800)

2. Install and start jetty
[root@ master zy]# unzip jetty-distribution-7.3.0.v20110203.zip
[root@master zy]# mv jetty-distribution-7.3.0.v20110203 /usr/local/jetty/
[root@master zy]# cd /usr/local/jetty/
[root@master jetty]# java -jar start.jar [or go to the bin directory and execute ./jetty.sh start】
[root@master bin]# ./jetty.sh start
Starting Jetty: STARTED Jetty Mon Jul 11 11:54:03 CST 2011
