goto
tomcat 5.0\webappsnow create a folder here. this is your webapplication project name. Let's suppose it as "TestApp"
inside this create directories as follows :
TestApp
        |
        |-----JSP/htmls( if you have any )
        |
        |-----WEB-INF(File Folder)
                   |
                   |-----web.xml
                   |-----lib ( Directory. place all the .jar files which are required for this project(if any) )
                   |-----classes ( .class files. )[all of your java code should be placed here.](servlets / beans/ pojo )this is the general Directory structure of a web application. now you've to place the compiled .class file of your servlet in the "TestApp\WEB-INF\classes" directory. make sure that you've configured the servlet in Deploment Desctiptor, i.e, web.xml.
now start the server and type the url like : "http://localhost:8080/TestApp/TestServlet"
the port no. 8080 is the default port no. of tomcat. you have to give your port no. if u've modified it. and TestServlet is the <url-pattern> of your servlet.
go through some tutorials .. then you can easily know that

How to run JSP/Servlet in AIX?

how to run JSP/Servlet in AIX?
I am no ideas about it,
can anyone tell me?
what webserver i should use?
have to install JDK?

The only successful way that I have been able to run servlets in an AIX environment is with the IBM Http Server (specific version of Apache)/WebSphere combination, with WebSphere as the servlet engine. I have tried (unsuccessfully) to use JRun and Apache in AIX environment, but could never get JRun to function properly.

How can I run a servlet with tomcat

I'm a new learner in servlet,I recently write a servlet program,when I compile it,the compiler throws the error
"package javax.servlet.http does not exist",I have put the servlet.jar(which exist in d:\tomcat\bin directory) file into the classpath directory;my servlet source files are in D:\tomcat\webapps\mywork\web-inf\classes\com\stardeveloper\servlets;
"com.stardeveloper.servlets" is the package for my servlet source files,so I have write the sentence "package com.stardeveloper.servlets;" in my servlet source file.
I don't know how to resolve this problem.can you give me a help?

servlet.jar doesn't exist in the folder you mentioned, but rather, in C:\tomcat40\common\lib, so this should be included in your classpath, the other thing you should care about is how you compiled your servlets, so that the package statement match the hirarchy of the file.

Cannot run a servlet using Tomcat. Urgent

I have a webapplication which uses some jsp's and servlets. The jsp pages work fine when I use
http://hostname:8080/MyWebapp/Filename.jsp
However, when I developed a java servlet and put the class file in WEB-INF/classes directory of my web application and tried to access it.
I got a resource not found error.
The strange thing is that when I put the file in the web-inf/classes folder of examples webapplication (which comes with Tomcat) I am able to run the servlet using
http://hostname:8080/examples/servlet/Class file
I am not sure what is wrong.
Can someone help me.
Thanks in advance
Vamsi.

It's predictable. The Servlet and JSP specifications mandate that you cannot directly access resources under WEB-INF directory. You have to set up servlet mapping configuration in your web.xml to specify how to access the resources, both Servlet and JSP, there.
When you copied your files in a demo webapp of Tomcat, the web.xml of the demo app already set up the mapping like following for you. So you could use http://hostname:8080/examples/servlet/Class to visit the servlet.
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
The default setting since Tomcat 4.1 turned off servlet invoker in web.xml under conf directory. You can uncomment the above lines in this file to turn it on. Then you are able to visit your servlet without <servlet-mapping> configured using the following syntax,
http://hostname:8080/<your_app_name>/servlet/<your_servlet_name>

How to run a servlet with jboss

Hello everybody my name is Noe I'm new in the forums . I want some information about how to configure and run a servlet and a jsp for the jboss server . Please help me, I have about 4 days searching information about this, and there is few information or the tutorials that I read were insuficient. I need one tutorial step by step or someone that explain me how to do this. Please help me with this
Thank's a lot.

Which error do you get!
If you just want to run jsps and servlets the you should use tomcat instead of jboss.
jboss is an aplication server that uses tomcat and adds an EJB container.
usually you use a build.xml file to run deployment scripts but if not, then you can manually copy the project folder into the jboss --> instance ---> web zone (I said this way because I dont remember the exactly folder)
Another thing is that you must have the project estructure built on the correct way defined by the estandar. I mean the WEB-INF folder, the web.xml file, the classes folder, etc.
next time yo may consider to post this on the j2ee section.
a web.xml file.
What problem do you exactly have when doing this, you cant ask for a tutorial step by step, but punctual things. Try it and if you cant then ask.

Just can't run HELLOWORLD servlet on Tomcat!

Hi there, I worked with servlets all summer long and now I'm getting back to build one, and I'm totally confused... My problem's there :
I try to run a simple HelloWorld servlet on Tomcat 4.1, and I get a 404 Error - Not found
Well, here's the structure of my web application, contained in simpleservlet.war :
WEB-APP
-web.xml
-CLASSES
-servlet.class
-LIB
-servlet.jar
Here's now the content of the web.xml file :
<web-app>
     <servlet>
          <servlet-name>serv</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>servlet</servlet-class>
     </servlet>
     <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>serv</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>/test</url-pattern>
     </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
AND FINALLY here's how I invoke my servlet, I TRIED :
http://localhost:1977/servlet/test
AND ALSO
http://localhost:1977/test
AND BANG, I GET "ERROR 404 - NOT FOUND"
A little help would be appreciated A LOT, well it's not supposed to be a hard problem... and by the way, I'm using port :1977, the problem's not there though.
regards, Pierre

Hi,
First try http://localhost:1977 and see if you are getting Tomcat. As you said, this is not a problem. So, you should get the index.html of the Tomcat. Now, click on the one of the example. From the Address Bar, you will know the path of this example. Try putting your page at that location and then run.
This should work.

How to run JSP/Servlet applications on Apache?

As we all know that tomcat is an JSP/Servlet engine. Apache is a web server not a JSP/Servlet enabled web server. Then in order to run JSP/Servlet applications on Apache web server on unix, what should I do?
Thanks.
James Liu

Can you give me some detailed information about how to combine Apache and Tomcat? Note, the application is going to run on Sun Solaris Operating System.
By the way, where do you put your final version of application? on windows or on Unix? on tomcat or on apache?
I am building the application using tomcat on windows, but now I almost finished the application, so I decide to move it to Unix which uses apache as the web server. But I got problems, the Servlet engine (JServ) can not understand "RequestDispatcher" (an object used to redirect jsp pages).
Help please.

How to run java servlet without using Web.xml?

How to run servlet without using Web.xml? From a book, I know that web.xml descriptor is optional, but the book doesn't tell us how to run java servelet without web.xm descriptor. So how to do that? Thanks a lot.

How to run servlet without using Web.xml?But Tomcat now uses a web.xml for its global server-wide configuration.
If you'd like to invoke a servlet with:
http://host/servlet/ServletName
you have to enable the invoker servlet.
[from an HTML]
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="/servlet/HGrepSearchSJ">
[from resin.conf of Resin Web Server 2.1.12]

<servlet-mapping url-pattern='/servlet/*' servlet-name='invoker'/>
[from TOMCAT5.0.19/conf/web.xml, a global server-wide web.xml file]












    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
          org.apache.catalina.servlets.InvokerServlet
        </servlet-class>
        <init-param>
