Esteban,

Usually you receive this message because your servlet does not overide 
the doGet() method of  the HttpServlet base class. If you want both POST 
and GET  methods to perform the same task, add the following method to 
your servlet.
   
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse 
response)
    throws ServletException, IOException
    {
        doPost (request, response);
    }

I've found this implementation useful while debuging, but often change 
the get method to return a the status of a servlet when the doPost 
method is complete.

 Hope this helps,

~Scott
