$CATALINA/webapps/mybasic_servlet/CurrencyForm.html
$CATALINA/webapps/mybasic_servlet/WEB-INF/classes/CurrencyConverter.class
When I start Tomcat, and access: http://localhost:8080/mybasic_servlet/CurrencyForm.html and type a number in the text input and submit, the browser returns a 404 error
The requested resource (/mybasic_servlet/servlet/CurrencyConverter) is not available.
If I add a web.xml file to $CATALINA/webapps/mybasic_servlet/WEB-INF/, and the web.xml uses
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Currency Converter</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/convert</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
and changes my html to <FORM METHOD=GET ACTION="">
Now after restarting Tomcat, and access: http://localhost:8080/mybasic_servlet/CurrencyForm.html and type a number in the text input an submit, this time the servlet gets triggered.
I have enclosed the files and would really apprceciate if someone explain this 404 error to me.
Thanks in advance.
