Sorry, I'm not following you. What "pattern" are you referring to?
Again, this app (and the html FORM/POST snippet I included) has worked under Forte and VAJ in the past. And I've looked at other Tomcat examples that look very much like what I'm doing, eg. http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/04/19/tomcat.html At 01:15 PM 11/21/2001 -0800, you wrote: >Your pattern does not occur in your post.

The post is just some text that >should match the pattern and that will then refer the app to your servlet. >-----Original Message----- >From: Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: Wednesday, November 21, 2001 12:39 PM >Subject: TC 4.0 newbie - servlet app won't run > > >>I installed Tomcat 4.0.1 under Win 2k using JDK 1.3 and able to run the >>example servlets, but not my own.
