RE: How to configure TomCat4 for web applications?

Also I don't have a Web Application Archive (WAR) file associated the
Controller application. Could that be the problem?

Thanks.

Hi, 
I removed the web.xml, the error message still is
"Controller/servlet/Controller not available". Do you have any suggestions
as how to write my own web.xml? Or do I need to specify somewhere for the
TomCat to find the Controller folder?
In TomCat3 there is a wrapper.properties file in which I can specify the
class path for Controller. I couldn't find a corresponding file in TomCat4.
Btw, is the servlet a virtual path? 
Thanks.

Yi,

Hi.  The web.xml file is specific to your application so you can't take
one from another application and put it inside Controller.  I was just
thinking that there could be something wrong with the old one you had. 
You could try with no web.xml file since it is not strictly required. 
Restart Tomcat and see what happens.

Posted by John Turner <to...@johnturner.com>.
You must explicitly map each servlet in your application's web.xml file.

Please post:

- the location on your filesystem of your servlet class file (like 
Controller/WEB-INF/classes/... or whatever)

- the exact URL you WISH to use to reach that servlet

- any servlet and servlet-mapping elements from your web application's 
web.xml file referring to the servlet above

Alternatively, consult the FAQ:
