Hi Robert
How are you running Tomcat? With Apache, or with PWS? or standalone?

Subject: Issues with web.xml
I'm having issues with the web.xml file in my webapps/root/web-inf
directory. What I want to do is be able to specify each individual
servlet that can be run, by using <servlet> and <servlet-mapping> tags.
Unfortunately, the best I have been able to do is use a generic servlet
invoker to allow every servlet to be accessed. When I try to set things
up so that only one servlet can be accessed, there are errors showing up
in the dos box when I start Tomcat... which proceed to scroll of the
screen faster than I can look at them. They do not show up in any of the
logfiles in the logs directory. I was hoping someone could take a look
at the web.xml file I'm using and tell me if my error is an obvious one,
and how to fix it. I tried everything I could think of to make it work,
and checked all the documentation I could find.
I'm running Tomcat 4.1.24 on Windows 98.
Thank you in advance,
Robert Seeger
