I have a servlet and I don't know how to make it run on JBos

[rowla]

I have a servlet MyHelloWorld.java and it compiles OK.

I have a directory WEB-INF, inside there's web.xml, jboss-web.xml and classes directory, where MyHelloWorld.class is put.

Listing of web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>

<servlet-name>MyHelloWorld</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>MyHelloWorld</servlet-class>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>MyHelloWorld</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/MyHelloWorld/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

Listing of jboss-web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE jboss-web PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-web_3_3.dtd">
<jboss-web>
<context-root>/MyHelloWorld</context-root>
<virtual-host>localhost</virtual-host>
</jboss-web>

when I make a MyHelloWorld.war from WEB-INF directory and copy it into C:\jboss-4.0.0DR3\server\default\deploy and then see http://localhost:8080/MyHelloWorld/
I get
directory listing for /
and no files inside

Can anybody help me?

Your url, is going to be after the MyHelloWorld.war

so you'll need to add /servlet/MyHelloWorld/?

in web.xml I changed for
<url-pattern>MyHelloWorld/</url-pattern>

and now I get :
Directory Listing For /

web.xml 0.4 kb Tue, 20 Apr 2004 20:16:26 GMT

instead of my servlet..

[spiritualmechanic]

Then you probably need to add another MyHelloWorld/. The url-pattern goes AFTER any web-app name you have.

As url-pattern, just put "/" (without the quotes), the context-root is always added in front of that.
Also, I would remove the virtual-host setting, at least for starters. This may confuse the system.
