I am a java noob. Been trying out the examples from Oreilly's Head First Servlets & JSP.
I am using Tomcat 5.5 running on Mac Os X 10.5. I created webapps/Beer-v1 and dropped in a plain html file. On accessing it at http://localhost:8080/Beer-v1/form.html, I get the html page as expected. But after adding webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml containing the following, I don't get anything other than a 404. ________________________________ <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd" version="2.4"> <servlet> <servlet-name>Ch3 Beer</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.shoan.web.BeerSelect</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Ch3 Beer</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/SelectBeer.do</url-pattern> <servlet-mapping> </web-app> _______________________________ The error I get is ________________________________ HTTP Status 404 - type Status report message description The requested resource () is not available. Apache Tomcat/5.5.27 Please help. Thanks in advance. Peace, Shoan. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
