Not able to compile first servlet

[Shaan patil]

Hi , I am not able to compile my first servlet. What is the path setting to compile the servlets ?

ProcServlet.java:1: package javax.servlet.http does not exist

The important thing to remember is that a servlet class is no different than any other class with dependencies.

This link explains the servlet specific stuff.

I'm going to move this to our Java In General (Beginner) forum where classpath, and javac issues are discussed.

You have downloaded J2EE? The package you mention isn't in the standard edition, so you will have to install the enterprise edition (see the FAQ quoted earlier).
