I've solved it. It seems that the file $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml is no longer considered in Tomcat 3.2.1.
You have to put your web.xml in the Web-inf directory where your files are.
Now I have one more problem:
If I start Tomcat from the command-line, everything works fine. But, if I start it as a NT service, the servlets/JSP cannot
access the database. The following error message is given:
Starting tomcat. Check logs/tomcat.log for error messages
SQL Exception opening DB connection:java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
URL: jdbc:odbc:workdb
UserName: PUBLIC
SQL State: IM002
Message: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
Vendor: 0
I have configured the wrapper.properties file according to the documentation, and everything but the database access seems to work.
Can anyone help ? Should I change something in the server.xml file ?
Thanks,
Wesley
PS: I'm using WinNT4sp6 and JDK1.3.0_01.

Subject: Help with servlet mapping
Hi !
Can you please help me solve the following problem (sorry if this is a naive
question) :
I'm trying to make Tomcat 3.2.1 to invoke a servlet (class myServlet in
package com.mycompany)
whenever I use this URL: http://myServer/myServlet
In order to do that, I've added to the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>
myServlet
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
com.mycompany.myServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>
myServlet
</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>
/myServlet
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
However, all I get is a 404 error when I try the URL above mentioned. The
class com.mycompany.myServlet is in
the CLASSPATH, and this used to work with Tomcat 3.1, so I don't know what
I'm doing wrong.
One thing I noticed is that the classes
org.apache.tomcat.servlets.DefaultServlet and
org.apache.tomcat.servlets.InvokerServlet are no longer part of
$TOMCAT_HOME/lib/webserver.jar, although they
continue to be mentioned in the default $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml file. Can
this be the cause of this problem ?
One other thing I noticed is that the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml file has
an entry like:
<RequestInterceptor
className="org.apache.tomcat.request.InvokerInterceptor"
debug="0" prefix="/servlet/" />
If I remove or comment that, the servlet examples which come with the
distribution stop working (i.e., the servlet
examples work because of this entry, and not because of the
$TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml file).
Thanks in advance for any help,
Wesley
