Howdy, Uncomment the servlet-mapping element for the invoker servlet in tomcat-install\conf\web.xml. This servlet is commented out by default in tomcat 4.1.18 for security purposes.
Alternatively, make an entry in your web.xml file (under ROOT/WEB-INF) for your servlet, e.g.; <servlet> <servlet-name>MyServletName</servlet-name> <servlet-class>classname</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>MyServletName</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/MyServlet</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> You can then access your servlet at http://localhost/MyServlet.
