Difficult to get jsp working without a servlet container.
Jakarta-tomcat is a good choice for one, being free, and the reference
implementation.

You don't need anything from ubuntu for this, you can just download
the tarballs of the binaries, unpack them in /usr/local or even
/home/<your userid> and then just set JAVA_HOME and go. You might also
want ANT. Same comments apply.

Works fine for me.
