How to access a servlet without
Hi;
How do I access a servlet without using <servlet-mapping>? I know servlet-mapping makes sense but I want to understand the other URI and everything I try doesn't make sense:
servlet:
webapp/WEB-INF/classes/ReportSales.jave
web.xml:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>SalesReport</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>ReportSales</servlet-class>
</servlet>
The following all failed:
http://localhost:8080/WindwardReportsServlet/servlet/ReportSales
http://localhost:8080/WindwardReportsServlet/servlet/SalesReport
http://localhost:8080/WindwardReportsServlet/ReportSales
http://localhost:8080/WindwardReportsServlet/SalesReport
any ideas?
thanks - dave

By the way, I wouldn't recommend leaving it turned on, as it presents a
security risk. If you place a security constraint on a servlet based on its
servlet mapping, users will be able to bypass that security constraint by
using the invoker servlet to invoke your servlet.

By default, in Tomcat 4.x, the servlet mapping for the "invoker" servlet
(the one that serves requests starting with /servlet) is commented out. You
can uncomment it in <tomcat home>/conf/web.xml and it will be turned on.
Then, your first URL should work.
