Request Resource not available JSP

My app cannot locate the jsp file located in the main Beer-v1 folder .
I have checked and rechecked and can't seem to find what the problem is.

My Jsp file :result.jsp

Java file

Couldn't get any thing from the log files as well...

In which directory is your result.jsp located?

Edit: Sorry, you said where it is located in the first sentence of your post.

And what is your web.xml or maybe more important - what is the URL you mapped to the posted Servlet?

And how do you know the "result.jsp" could not be found? Maybe your servlet code is simply not invoked...

The error I am getting is :
description The requested resource (/Beer-V1/result.jsp) is not available.

My web.xml file is :

My result.jsp is :

Form.html is :

This is the url i am using :

http://localhost:8080/Beer-V1/form.html

I know my servlet is getting invoked as i verified it by adding some System.out.println() statments and all of them got executed

Now i am

Nabila,

This is strange, you are sure you are having the result.jsp in the same directory as the form.html, right? Directly under Beer-V1?

Just to exclude other issues, try changing:

RequestDispatcher view = request.getRequestDispatcher("result.jsp");

into

RequestDispatcher view = request.getRequestDispatcher("/result.jsp");

Tried changing it , still getting the same result.

Double checked my directory structure
Beer-V1-->WEB-INF -----> classes ---->com->example----->model------>BeerExpert.class
--->form.html
--->result.jsp

Anything else i can try

I know it has to be something really silly!

Yea, it got to be something silly, as the example you posted works fine on my tomcat 7. Take a look at the attachment for any differences with your version.

Cheers!

PS. I've commented all the model classes, as I don't have their source.
PS2. What extensions are allowed in javaranch? Zip, Jar, rar, tar.bz2, txt - all are rejected...

[edit] I removed the download link and added the zip file as attachment

Are you sure it's not a stupid matter of an incorrect case, e.g. result.Jsp?

Not that I am aware of .
I have pretty much checked everything I could think of ..

One quick question..

If the result.jsp is not found how is 3 and 4 getting exectuted.
After

Thought it should stop there .

[edit] In the attachment you'll find my project

Just images - GIF, TIFF, BMP, PNG and JPEG.

Hi Nabila,

I had a look at your problem and I saw the problem immediately

Your "result.jsp" is actually "result.jsp.txt", so I guess you created the file using some text editor (e.g. notepad) and notepad added ".txt" to the file. And that's why your servlet can't find the file. So remove ".txt" from "result.jsp.txt", so you'll get a real jsp and not a txt file and your example will work flawless

Kind regards,
Roel

My stupid mistake

Thanks alot! You guys have been a great help !
