Dear Folks, I am a newbee to Servlets and I working myself thought the Head First Servlet Book. There is a simple example of a hello world servlet and a web.xml file deployed under the webapps folder, I did exactly as described in the book however I do get a 404, even though the localhost:8080 works fine. I have no clue how to debug this, the logfiles do not mention the deployment of my servlet, so I think I do have to configure a little more or so ...?
I have a linux box and the uname -a command delivers the following respons: Linux sonoma 2.6.32-31-generic #61-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 8 18:24:35 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
