Hi,
Thanks to all of you as because of your support i am able to know about servlet.Today i have a new but very simple problem i think all of you must know solution for this but i do not.So hope you will also help me this time.
My problem is as :
I am just writting simple servlets i mean i m testing different servlet.
I am using jdk1.5 and Tomcat5.0.intallation directory for these are as :
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_12 &
C:\Tomcat5.0
I am able to run servlet properly.
I want to create a new folder under "C:\Tomcat5.0\webapps" and want to put my servlet under this atruture.I am going to tell you what i had done.
I created a folder mycode under C:\Tomcat5.0\webapps and after this i had created WEB-INF folder inside mycode dir so the directory structure is as:
C:\Tomcat5.0\webapps\mycode\WEB-INF
Now i created classes folder inside WEB-INF folder and place an web.xml file(just done copy past from different folder)inside WEB-INF folder.
So the WEB-INF folder contains classes and web.xml file.
After this i put a AA.class file(this is a simlpe servlet file) inside classes folder and added or modified the web.xml file as:

<servlet>
<servlet-name>AA</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>AA</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>AA</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/mycode</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

So the code for my web.xml file is as:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

I am getting following error message

First, I'm wondering if you're not misunderstanding one thing : you have set the description to "Servlet 2.4 Examples", but you are using a 2.3 web.xml. Check here if you want to know how to use a 2.4 web.xml.


This mapping is not correct. You don't need to include the root of your application in it. You want to declare it that way :

This maps http://localhost:8080/mycode/AA to your AA servlet. (and don't forget that you'd better put your servlets in packages)

<servlet-class>AA</servlet-class>



All classes used in servlets MUST be placed in packages in order to avoid mystery errors such as you experienced. The basic problem is that the JVM will look for a class in the "default" (ie none specified) package in the "current" directory - you have NO control over what a servlet container thinks is the current directory. Yes, I know that some older examples use the default directory, typically with the "invoker" servlet. This was a bad idea then and its a bad idea now.
