How to Run servlet in Tomcat 5.5.9

hi
How to run servlet in tomcat 5.5.9?how to set context path in server.xml of conf folder in tomcat since there is no context tag in server.xml.
Jiten

Hi ! I have a similar problem, well, it's along the same line ...
I'm using NetBeans 4.1, and i've coded a servlet. Using NetBeans to launch my servlet (with the bundled Tomcat 5.5.7) works fine, however i need to deploy my application unto a Tomcat 5.5.9 server.
Thus, i copied the WAR file generated by NetBeans into the Tomcat 5.5.9 webapps directory, and Tomcat expands it.
Problem is when i run my JSP pages with the form tags, they do not work on the Tomcat 5.5.9 environment. Anyone knows why?
(These work on the NetBeans Tomcat bundle 5.5.7)
My form action :
<form name="index" method="get" action="PageServlet">
My web.xml :
<servlet>
<servlet-name>PageServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>application.PageServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>PageServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/PageServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I'm really stumbed on why it doesn't work in Tomcat 5.5.9, any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance ^_^

How to run Servlet in Tomcat 5.5.7 Server

Hi,
How to run Servlet in Tomcat 5.5.7 Server. I mean where I should copy my *.class file.
Thanks in Advance.
bbye.

In order to complile the servlet you need to tell java where to find the servlet libary (as stated above by setting the class path). or (much easier IMO)
copy the servlet-api.jar to
JavaInstallDirectory\jre\lib\ext

I have Tomcat version 4.0 installed on my machine. If you look at the directory where you have Tomcat installed, you should find the directory structure:
tomcat-folder/webapps/root/web-inf/classes
Try placing your class files in the classes folder.

Running Servlet in Tomcat 5.0

Hi!
This is with reference to my previous mail. I want to run a servlet program on Tomcat 5.0 installed in Windows XP/2000 computer. I was suggested from community previously to set classpath to jar files in tomcat directory. I did the same thing, but still thing are not working. The program is not getting compiled giving compilation error like javax.servlet.* package not found.
It's very important for me. So, if any one can help, then it would be really great.
Thanks.

Copy the servlet-api.jar file which is found in Tomcat
"common\lib" folder to your
"C:\<java-home>\jre\lib\ext" folder. Then compile
your servlet using the usual javac command.
I think this is terrible advice.
Actually this is not a good practice because the
servelet-api.jar file will get outdated once you
install the next version of Tomcat. Correct - that's why you shouldn't do it.
But to save
yourself time from setting classpaths or including
classpath option in javac command, this is a good
shortcut. I did the same process for testing servlets
using Tomcat 5.0 on my windows-XP desktop. It saved me
a lot of time.
How much time does it take to type in the classpath? If you're doing it that often, you ought to script the process. Better yet, learn how to use Ant for all your build needs:

How I can run servlets in Apache 1.3.2.7

hi i am using JSP as Interface..and Servlets as controller...
also Using Apache Httpd server,verion is 1.3.2.7
plz tell me how i can use apache to run my servlets.
Rahul.

To run servlets in Apache you need the mod_jk module. But as the previous post, it is better to use Tomcat and putting both, Apache and Tomcat, working together. Tomcat will serve all the java related things, and the Apache, the html, php, etc.

How to compile a servlet

I am trying to compile a servlet using the import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*; packages. But the only thing I keep getting is :
BasicServlet.java:1: package javax.servlet does not exist
import javax.servlet.*;
^
BasicServlet.java:2: package javax.servlet.http does not exist
import javax.servlet.http.*;
^
BasicServlet.java:6: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class HttpServlet
location: class BasicServlet
public class BasicServlet extends HttpServlet
I have included the servletapi2_1_1-win package from the sun site containing the servlet.jar in my classpath. Still it refuses to compile. Besides does anybody know how to compile using the servlet packages available in Tomcat or j2ee, both of which I have on my machine , but can't figure what to include.
Please help.
^

have you actually included the servlet.jar file in your classpath or just the directory, as you need to explicity declare jar files in the classpath...
javac -classpath %CLASSPATH%;C:\[servlet-jar-path]\servlet.jar Servlet.class

Error when running Servlet in Tomcat 4.1

Hi,
I succesfully compiled my servlet program and kept the HelloServlet.class files under
c:\program files\apache tomcat 4.1\webapps\examples\web-inf\classes\moreServlets

But I get the following error
Apache Tomcat/4.1 - HTTP Status 404 -/servlet/moreServlets/HelloServlet
description The requested resource (/servlet/moreServlets/HelloServlet

Can any one help me on this...
Thanks.

Try:
http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/moreServlets.HelloServlet
Everything after /servlet should be the classname using . notation
