Porting single servlet example to NetBeans 6.1

  1. Default Porting single servlet example to NetBeans 6.1

    Greetings;



    Specifics:

    OS: Win XP PRO
    App Serv: Tomcat 5.5
    Netbeans: 6.1

    Issue: I am trying to port a simple single servlet from the first
    example in Head First Servlets and JSP 2nd Edition to Netbeans 6.1.

    This example works fine when I deploy it manually under Tomcat.
    However, I am getting a 404 error looking for /Beer-v1/selectBeer.do
    when I try to run the version built and deployed with Netbeans.

    Source to servlet BeerSelect.java


    package com.example.web;

    import javax.servlet.*;
    import javax.servlet.http.*;
    import java.io.*;

    public class BeerSelect extends HttpServlet

    {
    public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
    HttpServletResponse response)
    throws IOException, ServletException
    {

    response.setContentType("text/html");
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
    out.println("Beer Selection Advice<br>");
    String c = request.getParameter("color");
    out.println("<br>Got beer color " + c);

    }
    }



    Any ideas?

    By what steps exactly are you telling NetBeans to deploy this app to
    the server, as opposed to simply building the app into the build/ and
    dist/ subdirectories?

    Are you running the Web app using NetBeans' "run" command, else how?

    Two questions, which you have not answered unless you provided two
    answers.
