running a servlet with tomcat

Posted: Jan 24, 2003 3:08 AM

hi !

i have a problem with tomcat 4.1.18, and nobody can answer me...
here ALL i did...

i have downloaded tomcat-4.1.18.exe
i installed it (not as a service) in c:\serveur\tomcat4.1 (no space in the name)
i have set

%TOMCAT_HOME%=c:\serveur\tomcat4.1
%CATALINA_HOME%=c:\serveur\tomcat4.1

t hen i created the tree
%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps\hello\WEB-INF\classes

i have put Hello.class (a helloworld like class, nothing to care about) in the classes dir
and the web.xml (from the ROOT\WEB-INF dir) in the WEB-INF dir


<?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/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">

<web-app>
 <display-name>Welcome to Tomcat</display-name>
 <description>
    Welcome to Tomcat
 </description>
</web-app>

i add in server.xml, just above the "examples" context,


<Context path="/hello" docBase="hello" debug="9" reloadable="true">
 <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="localhost_hello_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true" />  
 </Context>

i launch tomcat
no error message
i try
http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorld
---> it works
http://localhost:8080/hello/servlet/Hello
--->


Etat HTTP 404 - /hello/servlet/Hello

--------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------

type Rapport d''?tat

message /hello/servlet/Hello

description La ressource demand?e (/hello/servlet/Hello) n'est pas disponible.

when i have a look at webapps runing with http://localhost:8080/admin/list, i have


OK - Applications list?es pour l'h?te virtuel (virtual host) localhost
/admin:running:0:../server/webapps/admin
/webdav:running:0:C:\Serveur \Tomcat4.1\webapps\webdav
/examples:running:0:examples
/tomcat-docs:running:0:C: \Serveur\Tomcat4.1\webapps\tomcat-docs
/hello:running:0:hello
/:running:1:C:\Ser veur\Tomcat4.1\webapps\ROOT
/manager:running:0:../server/webapps/manager

so , where is the problem ?
please elp, i really don't know what to do :(

Hy
This is amit kuiya from india,well dear do one thing
as Default root specified in tomcat setting file is ROOT
so u have 2 options:

1. Keep ur servlet in /Webapps/Root/WEB_INF/classes/Hello
and run it as http://nameserver:8080/servlet/Hello

2. In ur server.xml file find the word ROOT and just replace that with Ur desired Directory
and then
Keep ur servlet in /Webapps/Directory/WEB_INF/classes/Hello
and run it as http://nameserver:8080/servlet/Hello

Both will work fine

mail me if still finding diff
at amitkuiya@rediffmail.com
Bye

thx for your help...
i found the problem !
it's due to the fact that the servlet invoker is disabled since tomcat 4.1.12...
i onlye had to enabled it in the conf/web.xlm :)

now i have to find how deny access to the repertories i don't want to be seen... *sigh*

does someone know when the servlet instances are destroyed ?
i have a problem with servlet that don't kill connexions when they aren't uses anymore...

does tomcat destroy the servlet when the session times out ? can i put the disconnection in the detructor ?

thx for replies

Jarod,

I've encountered the same problem.

How did you solve it?

Did you change server.xml and if so, could you post an example?

Thanks,
