greet isn't a file, it's a servlet endpoint. Your GreetingServiceImpl class is mapped to that endpoint in your web.xml file (under the war/ WEB-INF folder).
So I'd check your web.xml file and your GreetingServiceImpl class. Make sure the classnames match, make sure the compiled class (under WEB-INF/classes) is there, check the deploy logs. Actually, I notice that you just said Apache. Do you have tomcat (or other Java app server) configured correctly? Apache can't serve servlets without some help.
