Run Servlet with Tomcat

[LaoMa]

Hi guys,
I installed tomcat 4,the server works fine (shows up the test page),and the
servlet code compiles, but I can't load it with local:8080
That's what I did:create a directory of 'classes' under
webapps/Root/WEB-INF/,then put my .class file there,but when I tried
http:localhost:8080/servlet/HelloWorld, it doesn't load,always shows up
....file not available, seems I put the .class into a wrong place.
What's wrong with it?
Thanks.

put your servlet in WEB-INF/classes directory

in your Tomcat/conf/web.xml uncomment the bit that says....

<!-- The mapping for the invoker servlet -->
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>


.....as this is not turned on in Tomcat by default.
