hi, i am not able to access servlet classes within the sub folders.. ie /tomcat/webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/cal i can access all the files present in classes but not in it's sub directories. and i have one more problem, i have to give the following in URL in order to execute a servlet http://localhost:8888/examples/servlet/CookieExample and this does not work if i don't give servlet in the URL. it would be of great help if someone could give me the details of how to access subfolder or about the context path settings. thanking u in advance

  Take a look at my comment...it seems I am not the only one with problems. You have to reference the servlet with
  
  "/web-app-dir/servlet/servletname"
  
  rather than "/servlet/servletname"
  
  Otherwise Tomcat won't look in your /classes subfolder.

  Do you have your directory structure under classes declared as a package in your java class?
  
  In your example, you should have the classes under cal being devlared as a package called cal.
  
  I hope this helps. Good luck.
