Hi Mona,
Just follow these points. It always works for me.
1. Since you say that typing http://localhost:8080 does gives you index
page, i am sure there must be few example servlet link, click those links
and if those servlets are working then there is no problem with the
configuration.
link may be like this :
http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorldServlet
2. Just try to find those servlet location and put your files in that
location, obviously make sure that your servlet file is compiled and it
doesn't gives any bug.
3. Now just follow the above link and type this in the URL of the browser
:
http://locahost:8080/examples/servlet/YourServletFileName
I am sure this should work.
With Regards,
b.karthikeyan.
