New Babie query - pls pls help me

Hi,

I am totally totally new to Servlet/Tomcat. I wrote a very simple
"HelloWorld" servlet. I could compile it and could create the
HelloWorld.class file.

But how to test it thr Tomat web server ? I put the class inside servlet
example dir
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\webapps\servlets-examples\WEB-INF\classes
But whe tried to run it like
http://localhost:8080/servlets-examples/servlet/HelloWorld

always i get  description The requested resource
(/servlets-examples/servlet/HelloWorld) is not available.

I tried to start-stop/reload the tomcat servlet-example but still the same,
i understand i need to change some files - but can any body tell stepwise
instructions ?   Pls pls help me I am stuck....


Thanks in advance
Manisha

Welcome aboard.

The first thing you should do is find yourself a good book or tutorial.
There is a good one here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/appdev/index.html

If you just want a simple servlet example that you can drop into 
a running instance of Tomcat and run you can find one here:
http://simple.souther.us

Good Luck
-Ben

Argh. Triple hijack!
This thread started as "JSP expressions are displayed as string", became 
  "Do not allow browsing the root directory to tomcat", then "problem 
starting tomcat 5.5/jdk1.3.1_11" and now "New Babie query - pls pls help 
me".
For the sake of the archives and those of us using thread-aware mail 
clients, please start a new thread instead of replying to a completely 
unrelated topic.

Ta,

Jon

You need to create a mapping in web.xml to invoke the servlet. Look at
the elements
<servlet> and <servlet-mapping>  elements in the
example/WEB-INF/web.xml. Create a similar one and restart Tomcat.
