thanks for the reply my Demolog servlet resides in /test/servlet/* what I did is change the dtd for <servlet-mapping> into this <servlet-name> Demolog </servlet-name> <url-pattern> /test/servlet/* </url-pattern> Does this make sense ?
-----Original Message----- From: pero [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, October 22, 2001 10:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: servlet in startup Are you sure, that 'Demolog' is the fully qualified name of your Servlet? I mean, don't you have a package name? (property <servlet-class>) To load a Servlet at startup you need to provide some positive number as the <load-on-startup> property. If you want to call your Servlet from an URL like http://localhost:8080/Demolog then you have to add a servlet-mapping to your web.xml. Example <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Demolog</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/Demolog</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> hope this helps. pero
