I've already tried to find the answer in many places, including the
archives but it doesn't work.

I am using Visual Cafe for the Servlet development and I want to be able to
debug it. I can configurate the Tomcat and send a post to my servlet with:
http://localhost/servlet/myServletPackage.myServlet but I need to be able to
call it using only http://localhost during the development. Reading in the
Internet, I deduced that I had to change the web.xml file:


    <servlet>
          <servlet-name>myServlet</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>myServletPackage.myServlet</servlet-class>
        <load-on-startup>
            -2147483646
        </load-on-startup>
    </servlet> 
.....
    <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>myServlet</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>


I put  <servlet-mapping>...</servlet-mapping> after all
<servlet>...</servlet>. The servlet is loaded correctly.

I know how to change the port number from 8080 to 80 in the server.xml, so I
think that is not the problem. Do I need to create a new context too? I
tried this:

        <Context path="/" 
                 docBase="c:\develop\" 
                 debug="1" 
                 reloadable="true" > 
        </Context>

To configure the Tomcat for debugging, I used two suggestions als reference:

55344

I'm trying now to get everything working with Tomcat3.1.1, I've tried
Tomcat3.2.1 but I gave up after reading that it does't load the web.xml
default file (I tested this making a sintax mistake and Tomcat didn't
complain about it). I don't want to create an Web Aplication because I am
still developing the servlet. Tomcat is running Stand-alone without any
other server. I'm using WinNT.

Tank you ver much for your time
