web.xml servlet config element disappears!

[martin0]

I've got jboss 3.2.2 and I want to use cactus for unit testing of my app.

I've downloaded jakarta-cactus-13-1.5 and am following the Tomcat Quickstart instructions to test a servlet from a web browser. I put the config changes into jboss3.2.2\server\myapp\conf\web.xml.

When I run up jboss, and browse to the servlet, it says there is no context for the servlet. The config changes to web.xml are no longer there!! (Yes I checked them before running jboss). I can't see any errors in the jboss console, but I'm not sure what to look for.

My app and classes are all under deploy\test.web

Any help much appreciated.
Thanks
Martin

I get this message on starting jboss (even before trying cactus)

WARN [EmbeddedTomcatService] Unable to invoke setDelegate on class loader:org.jboss.web.tomcat.tc4.WebCtxLoader$ENCLoader@754fc
08

Is that something to do with it?

I found that web.xml in server/myapp/conf gets overwritten byserver/myapp/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar/web.xml everytime I start the server, so I edited the latter file instead.

Now the config is in server/myapp/conf/web.xml, but I still get the error

What did u do to make it work.... I have a similar problem.... I have made the entry in web.xml of
jboss-3.2.2RC4\server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat41.sar.. but get an exception 'Servlet Not found...'

Any Idea.....

That sounds to me like it can't find the class file for your servlet. Make sure you use the right structure in your war file.
I had WEB-INF\classes for the servlet class

I had made a couple of mistakes in my work - the 2nd was in the url!
