Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble getting servlet mapping to work under Tomcat
4.0-1-b1.
In previous version of Tomcat, it was enough to just put your servlet
mapping class in the "classes" directory under $TOMCAT_HOME and add this
to your web.xml file:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>
PyServlet
</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>
*.py
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
and everything worked! If I do this with Tomcat 4.0-1-b1, I get this
error when starting Tomcat.
------------------------------------------
Using CATALINA_HOME: /home/mddevel/MD8/packages/jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b1/
Starting service Tomcat-Standalone
Apache Tomcat/4.0-b1
ERROR reading java.io.FileInputStream@11c97e2

Starting service Tomcat-Apache
----------------------------------------
So, I tried looking at the structure of the other servlet mapping files
in web.xml and noticed that I might need to do this:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>PyServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>md8.util.PyServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
Everything seems to work when I startup Tomcat, but when I run a .py
file (which should map it to PyServlet), it produces this error:
-----------------------------------------
A Servlet Exception Has Occurred
Exception Report:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Class md8.util.PyServlet is not a Servlet

.
Root Cause:
java.lang.ClassCastException: md8.util.PyServlet

at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.invoke(ContainerBase.java:977)
at
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:196)
.
.
.
----------------------------------------------
Can someone shed some light what might be happing? This class IS a
servlet:
public class PyServlet extends HttpServlet {
static Hashtable servlets = new Hashtable(); // Cache for PyServlets
static Hashtable dates = new Hashtable(); // Timestamps for Cache entries
PythonInterpreter interp = new PythonInterpreter();
.
.
.
Again, this used to work under the previous version of Tomcat just fine
and it was considered to be a servlet.
Thanks,
Chris
