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.  My html displays and I can execute my
> JSPs, but a POST to a servlet does not work (this app has run under Forte
> and VA Java in the past).   I get a 404 error with "the requested resource
> (/myservlet) is not available". Since the examples work, I have to assume
> it's something in my configuration. Any help figuring out why the servlet
> won't run would be *greatly* appreciated.  I suspect it's something
> simple/braindead on my part.
