First of all.  Java and Java script are two different things. I take it 
you use Java. Your Java applets don't run on the server but on the 
client. The main problem from a server point of view is that you need 
to make sure that the class files can be handed out by the webserver.

You could check these thing:
- Does your client Java installed?
- Does your client the Java version installed that you use? (I.e you 
  use commands of version 2.0 and you client has 1.2)
- Does your client know how to get the class files?
- Does your server hand them corretly out? (You could check 
  /var/log/httpd-*.log if you use apache)

As far for websites: java.sun.com is the main site you want to look at. 
It has great tutorials, howtos and user support groups.
