One more thing the packagename you use to implement your class needs to be reflected in the classes folder WEB-INF/classes so for example your class is called barServlet and your package is called foo the location should be $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/barServlet/WEB-INF/classes/foo/barServlet.class

I've been double checking my syntax. I created a new project with the old code with a package inserted into the project. My servlet now delivers a blank screen when it should redirect me to one of my other jsp's. So I'm getting my servlet recognized but it isn't doing what I want. I'm going to try a different approach in my code. The way I have it now I'm using a print statement to output just a <% action tag with appropiate body %>.

I'm not sure if this is important but when I build the servlet there is an error that I get. It underlines my package and says that the package name was not one that it expected. Make sure your package declaration is correct. e.g. package firstservlet; Your servlet should be in here... -----Original Message----- From: Jon Wingfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 12:59 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Accessing a servlet ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/firstpack/JustALittleTest.class and JustALittleTest.java should have a package declaration of firstpack prior to compilation.
