Today we will see about creating simple login page using JSP. For this tutorial we have used
In this example lets start with simple JSP page which will have username and password field with login button. Also wwe have used javascript to validate text fields. In back-end we have created database connection and validating the username and password are valid or not. If its valid then we are returning true else false to the JSP page.
In JSP page if the returned value is true then we are redirecting to success.jsp else displaying error message in same page.
We have done very basic login page which will be understandable for beginners. There are lot and lot of tools and frameworks which we can use and make our web pages more powerful and rich in UI. But we have this taken simple way to start with login page.
Step - 3: Create simple login.jsp
Step - 4: Create LoginValidate.java page
Step - 5: Create success.jsp
Step - 6: Make sure database and table present in your database
- Eclipse
- Apache Tomcat (Web Server)
- Postgres Database

To Be Ready with:
i. JDK 1.5 and above should be installed in the machine
ii. Download Eclipse J2EE version according to your machine and OS and install - http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
iii. Download Apache Tomcat web server and install - http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi
iv. Download and install Postgres database or any other database according to your choice - http://www.postgresql.org/download/
v. Download necessary database driver jar files. In case of Postgres we need to download postgres SQL JDBC driver - http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html
Step - 1: Create Dynamic web project in Eclipse
File -> New -> Dynamic Web Project
Step - 2: Add database driver in project Libraries
Right click Project -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries -> Add External JARs
Step - 3: Create simple login.jsp

<p align="center"> <b><font color="darkred"><%=msg %></font></b></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Step - 4: Create LoginValidate.java page
package com.javadiscover.login;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
/**
* @author Java Discover
*/
public class LoginValidate {
public boolean validateUserLogin(String uname, String pwd){
boolean flag = false;
Connection con = null;
try{
con = createConnection();
if(con != null){
Statement stat = con.createStatement();
String qry = "SELECT * FROM tbl_login_master WHERE uname = '"+uname+"' AND password = '"+pwd+"' ";
ResultSet rs = stat.executeQuery(qry);
if(rs.next()){
flag = true;
}
}
}catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}finally{
if(con != null){
try {
con.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
return flag;
}
public Connection createConnection() {
System.out.println("Createung postgres DataBase Connection");
Connection connection = null;
try {
// Provide database Driver according to your database
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
// Provide URL, database and credentials according to your database
connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mydatabase", "javadiscover","postgres");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
if(connection != null){
System.out.println("Connection created successfully....");
}
return connection;
}
}
Step - 5: Create success.jsp
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Insert title here</title>
</head>
<body>
<%
String uname = request.getParameter("username");
%>
<h1>Hi <%=uname%>, Successfully Logged in.....</h1>
</body>
</html>
Step - 6: Make sure database and table present in your database
As per above code Database : mydatabase
Table : tbl_login_master
Credentials:
Username: javadiscover
Password: postgres
Step - 7: Start server and test your application by login.jsp page
