Help is setting up my First Servlet

[Giri Gopal <Gi...@bcgink.com>]

Hello:

I am new to JAVA and JSP. Last week with help from the post, I have tomact
5.0 installed and working. (side note: I can start tomcat only from startup
cmd in the Bin folder). I cannot start from the GUI I get when I installed
tomcat. Either way, it's working that's good news. I can run samples.


1) Now I have 2 Java files. I created a new folder c:\jsp\OraSample.  In
this folder I have compiled and created the class files to access oracle
database.
2) I have a JSP page also in the same folder as above.
3) I copied 2 class files to tomcat
5.0\webapps\root\web-inf\classes\org.apache.jsp
4) My JSP page is in tomcat 5.0\webapps\root folder.
5) What should my web.xml look like? Here is what I have:

	<servlet>
		<servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-class>
	</servlet>

	<servlet>
		<servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.empbean</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>org.apache.jsp.empQBean</servlet-class>
	</servlet>

	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.empbean</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>/dbqueryJB.jsp</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>


	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>/index.jsp</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>

6) When I point my browser to the JSP page, I get the following error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/jsp/empQBean (wrong name:
empQBean)
