I have deployed our War under Tomcat 6.0 into Linux server. In that Linux machine, we don't have permissions to open a browser.
Is it possible to execute a JSP from command line?

You can use among others wget (<-- click the link to see the manual):
wget http://localhost:8080/context/page.jsp
Unrelated to the concrete problem, I however wonder how that's useful. If you're for example abusing a JSP to do some webapp initialization, then you should instead have done it in a ServletContextListener (<-- click the link to see the Javadoc).

Seems useful , one more query please , assume that the war is placed inside the tomcat ?? Would this ServletContextListener class would be automatically called up when the server is started ?? – Revathi Nov 24 '11 at 17:53

That's also answered in the given links. Just register it in `web.xml`. – BalusC Nov 24 '11 at 17:54
