What is the difference between Apache Web Server and Tomcat?
in Apache HTTP Server
Posted
I know a bit of Java/JSP and a little (I thought) on Tomcat.
I now want to start using PHP (for use between MySql and Flash).
I thought I could simply write PHP scripts and use them in exactly the same way as JSP\'s using the Tomcat server. Even the simple \"Hello World\" doesn\'t appear to work ?
I\'m now thinking that I need to use Apache Webserver - but haven\'t got a clue as to the differences between this and Tomcat ?!? What is the relationship between these two products - as I now understand that you can somehow run Tomcat from within Apache - What does this all mean exactly ?!?
Servers !?! Servlet Containers !?! Very Confusing !! But would appreciate any pointers !!
Cheers,
Matt.
