[cobalt-users] Tomcat: problem with servlet mappings

["Ahmad" <ahmad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm having some problems with a webapp I installed. Basically, I get 404
error from Apache (not Tomcat) whenever I punch in a URL mapped servlet
address in my browser, and if I force it on Tomcat by specifying port
8080 in the URL it doesn't respond. Now, it works fine if you put a
"real" address (/context/servlet/classname). So it appears that Tomcat
is ignoring the mappings in web.xml rather than not working.
This would just be an inconvenience if I'm building my own app (don't
use URL mappings), but I'm trying to install a "ready made" app. Is
there a way to get round this?

TIA

Ahmad
