call servlet from applet

[fuadhamidov]

hi

i need to call servlet from applet to login users.

myUrl = "

http://localhost/Myproject/servlet/Login?user="+username+"&password="+password;

Login servlet is in jar in web-inf/lib without any package.

while i try in java 1.3.x, it runs successfully.

the problem occur when i try in java 1.4.x. so i put my servlets to test.servlet package. but still i can't run them.

i try to call them from IE.
(

http://localhost/Myproject/test/servlet/Login)

but i meet "page not found" message

i don't know where is my mistake

i use Tomcat 5

thanks for any help

In your web.xml, you need these lines :

  <servlet>
	<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
	<servlet-class>test.servlet.MyServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
	<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
	<url-pattern>/servlet/MyServlet</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

assuming that your MyServlet is in package test.servlet - ie :

package test.servlet;

public class MyServlet ... {

}

Then you can hit the servlet via this URL :

http://serverName:port/webappName/servlet/MyServlet

thanks sedj

it works good

i have used this structure to call servlet when the user call jsp.

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>test.servlet.MyServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>MyServlet.jsp</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

it is understandable that : the user call jsp and you redirect it to a servlet
but now i am calling servlet

And i can't understand why it is not problem java 1.3. and it is problem in java 1.4.

Do you know reason of problem?
