The requested resource (/DBTest/SearchInventory.jsp) is not available.

Question

Hi,
I have a search screen (jsp page) which has four fields to base the search on. Once the "Search" button is clicked, i am going to a servlet which does a select based on the search criteria, and stores the result in a ResultSet object. I then use the setAttribute method to store the result set in a bean. Here is the code for what i've just described:
rs=stmt.executeQuery(QueryStr); //get result set
HttpSession session=req.getSession(true);//create session var
session.setAttribute("s_resbean",rs);//set bean attribute
After this is set, i want to forward/redirect (whatever works...nothin does right now...the reason for this post.) back to the search screen(jsp page), and display the query ResultSet in the bottom half of the screen. I use the following code to do this:
String url="/DBTest/SearchInventory.jsp";
RequestDispatcher dispatcher=getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(url);
dispatcher.forward(req,res);
Unfortunately, this gives me the following error:
The requested resource (/DBTest/SearchInventory.jsp) is not available.
Why would this be happening?? Is there another way of doing this? I'm just trying to follow the example in chp.15 of the free coreservlets pdf...
Thanks in advance,
Aditya.
P.S. Here is the code for my bean...don't know if it's needed...
public class SearchBean extends HttpServlet{
     private int searchFlag=0;
     private ResultSet searchRS;
     public SearchBean(){
     public int getSearchFlag(){
          return searchFlag;
     public ResultSet getSearchRS(){
          return searchRS;
     public void setSearchRS(ResultSet rs){
          this.searchRS=rs;
     public void setSearchFlag(){
          this.searchFlag=1;
}

I assume DBTest is the context root for your webapp.
ServletRequest.getRequestDispatcher(String url) is looking for a url relative to the context root. Therefore if my assumption is correct you want to use the url /SearchInventory.jsp, removing the DBTest.
HTH.
