Hi, When you execute in the browser "http://localhost:8080/Hello2", the server looks for a "welcome page" defined in the "web.xml" file (see "Pages" folder or "<welcome-file-list>" xml entry).
When you execute the application by RUNning the project from NetBeans, it may actually start by default the browser with an url like "http://localhost:8080/Hello2/Greetings", where "/Greetings" is the relative path of the servlet. To execute "/Greetings" instead of something else is defined in the project properties, section "Run": -- Check "Display Browser on Run" toggle box -- Specif "/Greetings" in the "Relative URL" text input However, when executing manually "http://localhost:8080/Hello2", the browser will still execute "index.jsp" or whatever defined as "welcome page". Hope it helps, mihai peeter brunch a écrit : > Hi, > > When right click the Hello2 project node and select the Run command > from NetBean IDE.
