Not able to display starting jsp page index.jsp

[prasad regula]

I have developed a new project. The folder structure of the project is

D:\Prasad\spring_workspace\Addressbook_threePatterns>
----src
----test
----build
----lib
----war
--------WEB-INF
--------jsp
--------lib
--------web.xml
--------index.jsp
----build.xml

I am getting the following ERROR

type Status report

message /addrbook_v3/

description The requested resource (/addrbook_v3/) is not available.

[Bear Bibeault]

What does addrbook_v3 have to do with index.jsp?

[prasad regula]

That is the name I have given in the build.xml to generate a war file with that name

[prasad regula]

What should I do to display that page, because without displaying the first page I cannot move ahead with my project.. Here below is my build.xml

The build.xml is not useful.

Rather, how about showing web.xml?

[Bear Bibeault]

description The requested resource (/addrbook_v3/) is not available.

Have you verified that Tomcat is even starting the web app?

[David Newton]

By the way, ant -p will show a list of build targets that have description attributes (the "public" tasks).

[prasad regula]

Here below is my web.xml. It is located in WEB-INF folder. I could see the tomcat hompage at http://localhost:8080
----WEB-INF
--------web.xml

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<web-app version="2.4"

[Bear Bibeault]

Use the Tomcat Manager Application to verify that the web app has started properly.

[prasad regula]

This is what I got with ant -p

  D:\Prasad\spring_workspace\Addressbook_threePatterns>ant -p
Buildfile: build.xml

Main targets:

 build       Compile main source tree java files
 buildtests  Compile test tree java files
 buildwar    Compile main source tree java files
 clean       Clean output directories
 deploy      Deploy application
 deploywar   Deploy application as a WAR file
 install     Install application in Tomcat
 list        List Tomcat applications
 reload      Reload application in Tomcat
 start       Start Tomcat application
 stop        Stop Tomcat application
 tests       Run tests
 undeploy    Un-Deploy application
Default target: usage  

[prasad regula]

This is what I am seeing at tomcat Manager

/addrbook_v3 true 0 Start Stop Reload Undeploy
Expiry Session with idle ≥ 30 minutes

[David Newton]

Yeah. I was telling you because you have a "usage" target you have to maintain by hand, and there's no reason to.

[prasad regula]

I got it. I forgot giving the jsp page name in <welcome file list> element
