Building, Packaging, and Deploying the Servlet Basic Authentication Example Using Ant

To build, package, and deploy the web/hello2_basicauth example using the Ant tool, follow these steps:

1. If you have not already done so, follow the instructions in Building the Examples. This step is necessary to provide the Ant targets with the location of your tutorial and Application Server installations.

2. If you have not already done so, add authorized users to the file realm of the Application Server as described in Adding Authorized Roles and Users.

3. From a terminal window or command prompt, change to the tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/web/hello2_basicauth/ directory.

4. Build and package the web application by entering the following command at the terminal window or command prompt:

   ant

   This command uses web.xml and sun-web.xml files, located in the tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/web/hello2_basicauth/web/WEB-INF/ directory.

5. To deploy the example using Ant, enter the following command at the terminal window or command prompt:

   ant deploy

   The deploy target in this case gives you an incorrect URL to run the application. To run the application, please use the URL shown in Running the Basic Authentication Servlet.

6. To run the web application, follow the steps in Running the Basic Authentication Servlet.
