Howdy, If your web-application is called MyApp, and your servlet class is com.mycompany.myclass, you'd access it as http://myserver.mydomain:myport/MyApp/servlet/com.mycompany.myclass
If you deployed to the ROOT web app, so that your context is the root context, you would remove the /MyApp/ part from the above URL. If you have a web.xml file (a Deployment Descriptor is a good thing to have -- it'll become a good friend of yours ;)), you can alias the servlet like <servlet> <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.mycompany.myclass</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/MyServlet</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping And then you could access it as http://myserver.mydomain:myport/MyApp/MyServlet See the Servlet Spec (v2.3 if you're using tomcat v4.x) for what goes in the Deployment Descriptor etc. Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics >-----Original Message----- >From: Scott Seidl [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 9:19 PM >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Servlet / Tomcat question > >I'm stumped.
