You will also need a Java EE container (aka servlet container) like Apache Tomcat. The Apache HTTP server doesn't know anything about Java. Please note that Tomcat can itself be used directly as an HTTP server - you would typically choose to keep Apache HTTP server in front of Tomcat on production servers to speed up static files requests among other reasons (Apache HTTP can forward requests to Tomcat with the mod_proxy_ajp module). But for the beginning, it's easier to directly use the HTTP service provided by Tomcat. Then, you need to get familiar with the concept of a Web Application. It's nothing more than a specific hierarchy of files (that can be compressed into a jar file with the .war extension). For a web application using Velocity, that would typically be: ./ ← root of your web application ./index.vhtml ← your welcome page template ./foo/bar.vhtml ← any other file or subdirectory containing your web resources ./WEB-INF/ ← the WEB-INF directory contains all web application configuration ./WEB-INF/web.xml ← maps HTTP requests towards filters and servlets ./WEB-INF/tools.xml ← optional configuration file for your Velocity custom tools ./WEB-INF/velocity.properties ← optional file to tune Velocity configuration ./WEB-INF/lib/ ← contains all the libraries needed by your web application ./WEB-INF/src/ ← contains your custom Java classes source code ./WEB-INF/classes/ ← contains your custom Java classes Your web.xml file has to map adequate requests towards the VelocityViewServlet. It will look like this: <pre><code><?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <web-app version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> <servlet> <servlet-name>view</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.velocity.tools.view.VelocityViewServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>view</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.vhtml</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app> </code></pre> I cannot help you much with Eclipse as I don't use it, but there seems to be several tutorials online if you search for tomcat + eclipse. Here's one that looks interesting: <a href="http://www.coreservlets.com/Apache-Tomcat-Tutorial/tomcat-7-with-eclipse.html">http://www.coreservlets.com/Apache-Tomcat-Tutorial/tomcat-7-with-eclipse.html</a>

2. COI have managed to get tomcat set up and my first web app working but unfortunately not a velocity webapp, I used the tutorial you linked to, so many thanks! Can you perhaps point me to an example velocity project so I can try and get it working in Eclipse? Thank you!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
