Response to: Solution on 404 Tomcat Server side error !!
|
|
This is a great article, but I also had some trouble getting the example to work.
I followed the exact steps in the article and was getting a 404 error when submitting the login.jsp form. I changed my web.xml file to the following:
==========================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>mail</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>mail</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>mail</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/mail</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
==========================================
This is assuming you have your .jsp pages in the root of the project directory “TOMCAT_ROOT/webapps/onjava/”. With this fix there is no need to change the action for the form.
Alex, thanks for heading me in the right direction!
Good Luck!

Solution works with servlets, but what about javabeans?

However, it is not a solution for my jsp pages that use javaBeans rather than servlets. This is the error I get:
If anybody can throw some light on this aspect of the problem I would be grateful.
Also, does anyone know why we are having to resort to mapping our servlets anyway?
