OK. You need to remove the invoker section and do something like this:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>WebStocks</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>full.package.name.WebStocks</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>WebStocks</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/WebStocks</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
and modify your application to call /WebStocks rather than
/servlet/WebStocks
Notes:
1. The invoker is really, really bad. See the FAQ for why.
2. Your servlet should be in a package and you must specify the package
name in web.xml
