If you are using tomcat4, you can also go to {tomcat_install_dir}\conf and copy the web.xml file there. Copy it to your webapps's WEB-INF folder and edit this web.xml to your preferences.

Well... okay. Anyway your web.xml looks ok unless you happen to package your servlets.

well... i m not using package but still its giving 404 error..
Did you restart the server? and did you put the web.xml in
'webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/'? Rene
dear rene i only hv access to web-inf folder, cant know if its under web-apps/ROOT... i m still looking at anthony's solution & trying to get the port, but if the port is 80 i think we wud be better off writing as http://<hostname>/... instead of http://<hostname>:80/... thnx anyway malhar

Rene is right. You have to find out somehow if the web.xml is in the right directory. Also you must restart Tomcat for your new web.xml to take effect.
