Run a simple servlet in WLS6.1

Question

          Hi,
          I am new to WLS 6.1
          I have a simple servlet that outputs a string on webpage.
          I am trying to run this servlet using the WLS6.1
          I have compiled the source code and copied the class file (MyFirstServlet.class)
          into
          D:\BEA\wlserver6.1\config\mydomain\applications\DefaultWebApp\WEB-INF\classes
          I have the web.xml file in web-inf directory as below
          <?xml version="1.0" ?>
          <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 1.2//EN"
          "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
          <web-app>
          <servlet>
               <servlet-name> HelloWorld </servlet-name>
               <servlet-class> HelloWorld</servlet-class>
          </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping>
               <servlet-name> HelloWorld </servlet-name>
               <url-pattern> HelloWorld </url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>
          <welcome-file-list>
          <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
          </welcome-file-list>
          <servlet> <servlet-name> MyFirstServlet </servlet-name> <servlet-class> MyFirstServlet
          </servlet-class> </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name> MyFirstServlet </servlet-name> <url-pattern>
          MyFirstServlet </url-pattern> </servlet-mapping>
          </web-app>
          HelloWorls is also another simple servlet.
          then in the browser I give
          http://localhost:7001/MyFirstServlet
          this is the error I get
          Error 404--Not Found
          From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
          10.4.5 404 Not Found
          The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given
          of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
          If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client,
          the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code
          SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism,
          that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
          what is the problem?
          Please anyone help me in this matter!
          Thanks in Advance
