Hello, Is there anything special you have to do to get a web.xml file to work? I can not get my servlet to read the init-param's of my web.xml file! My servlet is located in the folder tomcat/webapps/WebOE/WEB-INF/classes and the web.xml file which is in the WEB-INF folder has the following code:
<web-app> <servlet> <servlet-name>WebOE</servlet-name> <servlet-class>WebOE</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>DBServer</param-name> <param-value>spacejam</param-value> </init-param> </servlet> </web-app> but when i try to read it from teh servlet using the getInitParameter function, it returns a null function. is there anything that i am overlooking? Thanks! fuz ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
