Hi Lubos,
Your CLASSPATH does not need to include
myExample/WEB-INF/classes, this is added
automatically by tomcat (also, every jar file
in myExample/WEB-INF/lib will be added).
In fact, it is a very bad idea to put the classes
directory of a webapp in CLASSPATH, for
various reasons.
If you put a plain html or text file in directory
TOMCAT_HOME/myExample, can you fetch
this file with a browser? That will prove that at
least the <Context> tag is defined right....
Regarding the servlets in examples: there is
this funky thing called the "InvokerServlet"
which allows you to type
http://hostname:port/webappname/servlet/pkg.class
The InvokerServlet gets called (because its url-pattern
is /servlet/*), and then passes the request off to the
class specified in the url. If you are happy to use
"/servlet" in all your servlet-related urls, and don't need
startup parameters for any of your servlets, then you
don't need to define servlets in your web.xml at all. Just
put your servlet class in the appropriate subdirectory
of WEB-INF/classes and it is immediately accessable.
I'm not sure how the InvokerServlet gets "enabled" in
tomcat3.2 - in tomcat3.1, it used to be defined in the
TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml file, but tomcat 3.2
no longer uses that file. The answer should be in the
tomcat docs somewhere..
I notice you're defining <load-on-startup> for your servlet.
Is this deliberate, or are you just copying from somewhere?
In general, this is not necessary (in fact, it might even be
causing your servlet to crash, hence your 404).
Hope this helps,
Simon
