Where do I Place my Servlets, JSP and Bean in the Tomcat Server?

Hii,

I think, u forgot to map it in the web.xml (if tomcat is app server).

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>YourServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.ch.YourServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>

and specify whatever mapping u want..

  <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>YourServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/YourServlet</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

Now u can use directly the name YourServlet for the action.

Hope this helps

you should put your servlet under:
youwebapp/WEB-INF/classes/your/servlet/packege/YourSevlet.class

Hi Fargo

I did the same thing as u told me and in action only the FormServlet. But it gave an error like this:

type Status report

message /examples/jsp/FormServlet

description The requested resource (/examples/jsp/FormServlet) is not available.

Pls advice.


in Web.xml

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>FormServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.ch.FormServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>


  <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>FormServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/FormServlet</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

according to your defination in web.xml, you should be accessing your servlet as /examples/FormServlet.

if you wish to access it via /examples/jsp/FormServlet, then use /jsp/FormServlet as url-pattern in web.xml

HTH

Still giving me the same Error.
description The requested resource (/examples/jsp/FormServlet) is not available.


Sometimes, my localhost:8080 does not show the default page and does not start. I need to re start the server every time. Any advice?

When I place the above in the XML , I get an exception in the Command prompt.

Can u suggest me any site where they show me how to do all these properly?

Can U gimme an example which uses Form Fields , JSP, Servlets and Beans?

>>When I place the above in the XML , I get an exception in the Command prompt.
can you post your web.xml

probably you should get a servlet/jsp book to study.

Hi!

Don't forget to restart Tomcat as soon as you change anything concerning servlets: recompiling, replacing, modifying web.xml.

I hope it helps...

Regards!

Servlet is in:
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27\webapps\examples\WEB-INF\classes


Bean is in:
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27\webapps\examples\WEB-INF\classes\com\ch


Please let me know whats wrong.

Rajesh.


version of Java:

C:\j2sdkee1.2.1
C:\jdk1.3.1_04

you don't have servlet mapping in your web.xml. you need this:
 <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>FormServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/jsp/FormServlet</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

and restart your tomcat.

Hi

The above problem is fixed ..Thanks.
Now I have the First page, when i click on submit, it should say Loading in the second page for 5 mins and automatically control transfers to my third page after 5 Mins. How do i do this using JSP?
