you might want to try putting the servletXYZ.jar file in your
jdk/jre/lib/ext directory

Subject: Servlet Compilation Error




import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class HelloWorld extends HttpServlet
{
     public void doGet (HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
     throws IOException, ServletException
     {
          response.setContentType ("text/html");
          PrintWriter out = response.getWriter ();
          out.println ("<html>");
          out.println ("<body>");
          out.println ("<head>");
          out.println ("<title>Hello World!</title>");
          out.println ("</head>");
          out.println ("<h1>Hello World!</h1>");
          out.println ("</body>");
          out.println ("</html>");
     }
}


On trying to compile this servlet program, I get the error message, "package
javax.servlet does not exist".

On compiling the same program using this command "$javac -classpath
/usr/local/tomcat-4.0.1/common/lib/servlet.jar HelloWorld.java" there are no
errors.

Does the compilation of the servlet depend on setting up the proper context
in
the server.xml file???

Thanks in advance,

Samarth
