Christian/anyone else
I noticed your servlet mapping is
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>EmployeeForm</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
What effect does specifying '/' as the url-pattern have?
Specifically what effect does it have on the action string in a HTML form?
What would happen if you had another servlet mapping (for another servlet)
and had '/' as the url pattern?
Thanks

its always useful to describe WHAT error you are getting
</aside>
from looking at your files, I see you are missing a servlet-mapping entry in
web.xml. In your call to the default-web-app, you use the
(orion-preconfigured) servletmapping to /servlet. Now you can do the same
when calling into your new webapp, by saying
<form
action="/employee-app/servlet/com.objectgeneration.sample.EmployeeForm">
method="post">
(note the "/servlet/" in there), or you can add a servlet mapping like the
following (note that I've also assigned a shorter servlet name):
<servlet>
<servlet-name>EmployeeForm</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.objectgeneration.sample.EmployeeForm</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>EmployeeForm</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
