The container expects there to be a physical file that corresponds to a welcome-file. Since there can be more than one candidate (it's a list of welcome-files), it needs to look to see what's there and then choose the one highest on the list.
The usual technique is to create a welcome-file as a JavaServer Page, and then forward from that to the servlet. -Ted. ั๎ะกอ๘ wrote: > i want to set a servlet as welcome-file in web.xml , but it doesn't work ,how to do >it? > > thank u . > > sureone > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY US co-author, Java Web Development with Struts Order it today: <http://husted.com/struts/book.html> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
