I installed Tomcat 4.0.1 under Win 2k using JDK 1.3 and able to run the
example servlets, but not my own. My html displays and I can execute my
JSPs, but a POST to a servlet does not work (this app has run under Forte
and VA Java in the past). I get a 404 error with "the requested resource
(/myservlet) is not available". Since the examples work, I have to assume
it's something in my configuration. Any help figuring out why the servlet
won't run would be *greatly* appreciated. I suspect it's something
simple/braindead on my part.
o My directory structure for the app:
TomcatHome
|
+--webapps
|
+--myapp\.jsp, .html .gif
|
+--WEB-INF\web.xml
|
+--classes\.class files
o My html POST stmt. I've tried various path prefixes to myservlet, eg
"classes/myservlet". As with the Tomcat examples, this servlet has no
package:
<FORM ACTION="/myservlet" method="POST">
o My web.xml - I know Tomcat's seeing/parsing this because if I deliberately
make a typo I get an error upon startup:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";>
<web-app>
<!-- Define servlets that are included in the application -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>myservlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>myservlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>myservlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/classes</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
o Update to server.xml
<Context path="/myapp" docBase="myapp" debug="0">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="myapp_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
</Context>
