Invoking Servlet - trying to remove servlet prefix

[Pavan Sethurathnam <se...@yahoo.com>]

When i invoke servlet...it is working fine when

http://localhost:8080/login/servlet/login

but I dont want servlet prefix.

i just want http://localhost:8080/login/login


my web.xml looks 


<servlet>
        <servlet-name>
            login
        </servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
            LoginServlet
        </servlet-class>
    </servlet>



  <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>login</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/login</url-pattern>  
    </servlet-mapping>


>From mailing list  i see, i can remove prefix servlet
from InvokerServlet

conig/web.xml

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

    <servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

This is the right thing to do.

Don't touch this part.  All you need to do is provide your own mapping.

Note that your proposed URL:

  http://localhost:8080/login/login

will be correct only if the context path of this webapp is also named
"login".  If your webapp was actually in a directory called "catalog" (for
example), the login would be

  http://localhost:8080/catalog/login

instead.
