Why can't run servlet?

Edward King · September 19th, 2003, 02:45 AM

I have a servlet file,like follows:
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;
public class a1 extends HttpServlet{
    public void doGet(HttpServletResponse req,HttpServletResponse resp) throws ServletException,IOException{
        PrintWriter pw=resp.getWriter();
        pw.println("<html><body>Hello World!</body></html>");
        pw.close();
    }
}

and web.xml is follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">

<web-app>
   <servlet>
   <servlet-name>a1</servlet-name>
   <servlet-class>a1</servlet-class>
   </servlet>
</web-app>

I use Tomcat5.0,and I put a1.class into \Tomcat 5.0\webapps\test\WEB-INF\classes,and I have add a sentence into server.xml like follows:

<Context path="test" docBase="test" debug="0"/>

but when I run it in IE6,like follows:
http://localhost:8080/test/servlets/a1

it raises HTTP Status 404 error,"The requested resource (/test/servlets/a1) is not available."

Why? I have configure it! Please help.
Thanks in advance
Edward

In server8080.xml you must form your application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Server debug="0" port="8081" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
  <Service name="Tomcat-Standalone">
    <Connector acceptCount="10" className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.Http Connector" connectionTimeout="60000" debug="0" maxProcessors="75" minProcessors="5" port="8080"/>
    <Engine debug="0" defaultHost="localhost" name="Standalone">
      <Host appBase="C:\PROYECTS\myProyect\app\Tomcat\webapps" debug="0" name="localhost" unpackWARs="true">
        <Context debug="0" docBase="C:\PROYECTS\myProyect\app" path="/myContext" reloadable="true" workDir="C:\PROYECTS\myProyect\app\Tomcat\work\myC ontext"/>
      </Host>
    </Engine>
  </Service>
</Server>

Soon in the call you put:
htpp://localhost:8080/myContext/a1

change <Context path="test" docBase="test" debug="0"/>

to

<Context path="/test" docBase="test" debug="0"/>
restart tomcat
then run http://localhost:8080/test/servlets/a1

it will be ok.
