David, thanks for your quick response to my post!
My reading of the dire warnings about enabling the invoker servlet lead me
to believe that I should not do so in a production environment. However,
this is a development environment, and I don't want to have to modify a
web.xml file every time I create a new Servlet class. Am I reading this
wrong?
As to the problem - my servlet was in package "elsewise.ui.user" (not
"ui.user") and my class file was in the directory you specified.
I just tried moving the class tree down one level:
webapps/elsewise/WEB-INF/classes/elsewise/ui/user/LoginServlet.class
and changed the form tag to:
<form action="servlet/elsewise/ui/user/LoginServlet" method=POST>
I got a similar error:
The requested resource
(/elsewise/servlet/elsewise/ui/user/LoginServlet) is not available.
In my original post I pointed out that I was having a similar problem with
the default Tomcat home page "Hello World" example. Since I did not change
the location of these files from the original installation, I assume there
is a configuration error. If I get that working, I can compare my attempts
to set up my own application to that example.
Any thoughts?
Steve

I won't comment (too much) on the implications of enabling the invoker
servlet. I just hope you read the dire warnings before doing that.
On the problem itself --
Did you declare your servlet of package ui.user and place the compiled
.class file in webapps/elsewise/WEB-INF/classes/ui/user? Did you also
restart tomcat after enabling the invoker and your webapp after placing the
class file where it belongs?
Just covering the usual suspects here.
