This simple example is based heavily on the Hello User application in the Java EE Tutorial.

Get the example. Either:

• Use the NetBeans project
  • Download the NetBeans project zip file
  • Expand the zip file into a directory
  • Open the directory in NetBeans as a project
  • Right-click on the project and choose Build Project
  • Note the location of the build WAR file in the output tab

or

• Download the pre-built hello1.war

Then

• Deploy the application using asadmin deploy --path hello1-war-path

• Use your browser to go to http://your-host:8080/hello1/index.jsp
