When I use this entry I get a request resource not found error.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JustALittleTest</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>firstpack.JustALittleTest</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JustALittleTest</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/firstpack/JustALittleTest</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Under the previous error to this one I was using an entry of:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JustALittleTest</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>JustALittleTest</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JustALittleTest</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/firstpack.JustALittleTest</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
With the following entry:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JustALittleTest</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>firstpack.JustALittleTest</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JustALittleTest</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/firstpack.JustALittleTest</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I get an error of 'Error allocating a servlet instance'

<servlet>
<servlet-name>TheServletName</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>package.ThisIsTheClassName</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>TheServletName</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/a/path/to/theservlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
"servlet-name" is used to link the definition to the mapping.
defs are grouped together in web.xml, as are mappings.
"url-pattern" refers to the path by which you'll access the servlet.
it can any unique url on your system, and does not have to reflect the
class name.
