Sorry, my bad, I meant to say METHOD="POST", not METHOD="PUT". What you
have should be running the doPost method of the align servlet in the
servlets directory of your servlet engine. If you created a named servlet
entry for align, then the servlet must be named the same way it's specified
in the configuration. Make sure that you aren't throwing an exception in
the init method, other than that I'm out of ideas.
