How to use Servlet 2.4 with Netweaver Developer Studio 7.0?

Question

Hello,
When I define my web.xml as follows:
<!DOCTYPE web-app version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
I get an error in french: "La DTD du type de lélément racine "" doit se terminer par '>'."
Saying that the DTD of type of root element must end with '>'     
How can I solve this error?
Thanks for your help,

There is a  " (double quote missing in the xsi:schemaLocation attribute. This is the reason. I am guessing that you may have tried manually editing this web.xml file and may not have correctly edited it.
To correct the <? xml ?> and <!DOCTYPE> tags - please openup a blank Web Module Project and copy these two tags only from the web.xml and overwrite the same tags in your web.xml.
Hope that this helps.
Thanks.
