How to forward to a servlet?
Hi
Somebody may have already answered this but here a simple question.
1) created a servlet called com.consultech.web.booking.WebBureauServlet. In
the doPost method of this servlet, I simply output text to the browser (ie
Writer w = response.getWriter();
w.write("Hello world");
2) Add the servlet entry into web.xml. eg
<servlet>
<servlet-name>webbureau</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.consultech.web.booking.WebBureauServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>2</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
3) created a index.jsp and added this link. Eg
<li><struts:link href="webbureau">Web Bureau Test</struts:link>
4) Built the .war file and deployed to the webapps directory of Tomcat.
Tomcat loaded my website find and displays the index.jsp. But when I click
on the Web Bureau Text, Tomcat could not find the servlet. Any idea how I
should configure this to get my servlet to display the message?
Thanks in advance.
