what is the URL for my servlet.war?

Question

Hey , I am new to servlet and jboss, I just deploy my servlet on jboss 4.2 .jboss console shows me it is deployed successfully

my web.xml contain

<display-name>Notification_Auth_server_simulator</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<servlet>
   <description></description>
   <display-name>Notify</display-name>
  <servlet-name>Notify</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>com.me.Notify</servlet-class>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>Notify</servlet-name>
 <url-pattern>/notify</url-pattern>
 </servlet-mapping>
  </web-app> 

and for jboss-web.xml

  <jboss-web>
  <context-root>mysite</context-root>
  </jboss-web>

I tried in my browser http://localhost:8080/mysite/notify and it doesn't work

what is the correct site name ?

Thanks

Answer 1

The slashes are the other way around, and there is a double-slash after the colon:

http://localhost:8080/mysite/notify 

Furthermore, if your servlet doesn't support the GET http method, it won't work. You have to override the doGet() method.

Also make sure mysite is the name of your war.
