New User Web.xml question
Windows Server 2k, Tomcat 4.1. I'm relatively new at building web applications. I'm ok with the programming, I've never learned how to make a web.xml file. I've gotten by on the invoker running all of my jsp pages. It's now time to do things right. I have many books in front of me. NetBeans The Definitive Guide Tomcat Kick Start Apache Tomcat Bible Tomcat The Definitive Guide Web Development with JavaServer Pages CORE JSTL Mastering the JSP Standard Tag Library CORE Servlets and JavaServer Pages I still have no clue. I only write jsp pages, no servlets. I understand that Tomcat converts this to a servlet. I understand that this servlet is a class. The sample web.xml in the ROOT directory of webapps does not mention a class, yet the index page runs. The sample web.xml in the examples directory of webapps has lots of filter and filter-mapping entries. I have only a vague idea of what they do. I have a few very simple webapps. 1 page to login, 1 page to search. I would like to make a web.xml file for my webapps. Right now, whatever I try I get a 404 error when I restart Tomcat, then I delete the web.xml I made and everything is good again. Can someone give me a tip. If your webapp's root was \\webserver\www.company.com file:///\\webserver\www.company.com%20and%20you%20added%20test.jsp and you added test.jsp to that web app. What entry would you make in your web.xml file? Thanks in advance.
RE: New User Web.xml question
Howdy, You don't need to declare JSPs in your web.xml even though they really are servlets, because there's a special servlet that serves JSP pages. That servlet is declared and mapped in the master web.xml file located in the $CATALINA_HOME/conf directory. Start with a web.xml file that just has an empty webapp element: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? !DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC -//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd; web-app /web-app Alternatively, you can use the basic web.xml provided in the tomcat First Webapp guide: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/appdev/web.xml.txt (In general, I suggest reading http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/appdev/ before any of your many printed books).

RE: New User Web.xml question
JSP do not need any entries in web.xml caused they are simply mapped by filename Servlets need an entry so that you can map the servlet class to a URL pattern Filip -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 9:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: New User Web.xml question Windows Server 2k, Tomcat 4.1.

RE: New User Web.xml question
Thank you Flip and Yoav for your help. That cleared up a lot of confusion. I have used the empty web.xml listed below, restarted tomcat, and everything was fine. I then added some taglibs to the web.xml: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? !DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC -//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd; web-app taglib taglib-urihttp://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/c/taglib-uri taglib-location/WEB-INF/c.tld/taglib-location /taglib taglib taglib-urihttp://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/sql/taglib-uri taglib-location/WEB-INF/sql.tld/taglib-location /taglib /web-app When I restart Tomcat, I get a 404 error.

RE: New User Web.xml question
Howdy, When I restart Tomcat, I get a 404 error. Any ideas? You don't get a 404 error when you restart tomcat. You get a 404 error when you try to access some resource that tomcat can't find. What resource, what is its mapping if any, and what errors are in your logs?

Hi, When you get an error processing your web.xml, the entire context becomes unavailable: all requests to it will result in 4xx or 5xx errors, depending on the request.
