servlet-mapping problem

howdy,

i am trying to just play around with tomcat and try to get some servlets
running.  I am having a problem getting the servlet-mapping to work in my
web.xml and am wondering if i can get you guys to help out.


here's my web.xml.  the servlet-mapping tag works only the way it is now (im
guessing b/c its actually only using the invoker servlet).  i cant change it
to anything else, such as /wars or /blah, etc. and get it to work.  any
ideas?

any info is much appreciated!

cheers
t

Re: servlet-mapping problem

Posted by Dave Ferguson <df...@touchnet.com>.
This is basic stuff.  It should work.  What URL are you using to invoke the servlet?  With no mapping the URL would be http://server/servlet/warservlet.  If your mapping is

  <url-pattern>/blah</url-pattern>

then the URL would be http://server/blah.  Restart Tomcat to be sure your changes take effect.
