have you tried invoking it through port 8080 directly? did you add the
/servlet/ path to your servlet's URL? are there any mappings in the
web-inf/web.xml file that are messing things up? are you sure your
web-server and the servlet-server are working together and that the path
to the servlet is correct?
i have a related question - what's the best resource on the web for
fully understanding the web-inf mapping and web.xml file? i've scanned
(read "not studied fully") through the chapters in the Servlet 2.2 spec,
but i'm still left with a number of questions and wondered if anyone
knew of a more long-winded description of configuring the new
servlet-mapping. for instance, how to do i specify a classpath for a
web-app/context? can i invoke servlets without adding /servlet/ to the
URL? what's the difference between /web-inf/classes and
web-inf/servlets? can i package all my servlets into a single jar and
then use the web.xml file to map aliases to servlets within that jar?
is "web-inf" case-sensitive? so many questions... :)
thanx in advance (even if i get flamed for asking the obvious).
