What r the entries to be made and where?.. I created my own directory and in that WEB-INF and WEB-INF\classes and placed an example web.xml file in the WEB-INF folder... I kept some html and jsp files, which are running very well but I am not able to run servlets... I want to know what are the entries that r to be made for the servlet to run... And also one more question... I am accessing my directory from the browsing by entering http://localhost/xxx ("xxx" is folder name, running both apache and tomcat).. How can I make this xxx folder the root directory for the localhost and how to host sites in the apache/tomcat? What needed to be done for this?
