| 00:01.58 | absurdhero | is there any way to figure out why a webapp wont start? |
| 00:02.56 | absurdhero | when I add a servlet-mapping, it breaks |
| 00:03.21 | absurdhero | I think the class im mapping to isn't specified right in the web.xml. is there any way to figure out why/how? |
| 00:03.58 | hellabot | Someone pasted "http://www.hellaweb.com/hellab" at http://www.hellaweb.com/hellabot/325 |

| 00:15.19 | rexsum | hey |
| 00:15.35 | rexsum | can anyone help me with an web.xml? |
| 00:15.41 | rexsum | somehow this mapping fails to work http://eugeneciurana.com/pastebin/pastebin.php?show=1146 |
| 00:15.43 | absurdhero | exactly what I need :) |
| 00:15.47 | absurdhero | my mapping fails too! |
| 00:15.50 | rexsum | lol |
| 00:15.55 | rexsum | show me yours then :) |
| 00:16.01 | absurdhero | and there are no detailed error reports |
| 00:16.40 | absurdhero | ok |
| 00:17.56 | absurdhero | http://eugeneciurana.com/pastebin/pastebin.php?show=1147 |
| 00:18.21 | absurdhero | mine attempts to map all html files to one servlet. but tomcat wont start the stupid webapp with that mapping |
| 00:18.38 | rexsum | yeah |
| 00:18.45 | rexsum | it needs a preceding slash i think |
| 00:19.08 | absurdhero | i had one there at one point, but it still didnt work |
| 00:19.08 | rexsum | is the class file directly in WEB-INF/classes? or in a package |
| 00:19.34 | absurdhero | it is not in a package. its sitting in the classes dir |
| 00:19.52 | absurdhero | tomcat chokes on it for some reason |
| 00:20.09 | absurdhero | yours looks fine too |
| 00:20.40 | absurdhero | do you happen to be using a certain book called "JSP, Servlets, and MYSQL"? |
| 00:21.11 | absurdhero | i am using a derivative of the examples web.xml |
| 00:21.12 | rexsum | what does tomcat say |
| 00:21.15 | rexsum | nope |
| 00:21.41 | absurdhero | when I substitute a working example class in for mine, it worked |
| 00:21.42 | absurdhero | FAIL - Application at context path /kingquest could not be started |
| 00:21.47 | absurdhero | thats the message |
| 00:21.51 | absurdhero | very descriptive |
| 00:22.49 | rexsum | and the log files? |
| 00:23.02 | absurdhero | where are they? |
| 00:23.06 | rexsum | hmm maybe your servlet is not ok |
| 00:23.10 | rexsum | in the tomcat dir under logs |
| 00:23.15 | absurdhero | found em |
| 00:24.29 | absurdhero | ahah. as I expected, "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Servlet mapping specifies an unknown servlet name ControllerServlet" |
| 00:25.55 | absurdhero | but i dont know what to do about it |
| 00:26.02 | absurdhero | the class is mapped to that name |
| 00:27.14 | rexsum | weird |
| 00:27.33 | absurdhero | maybe it is because of something else in the web.xml from the example? |
| 00:27.45 | absurdhero | the tomcat example web.xml, that is |
| 00:27.59 | rexsum | post the entire thing |
| 00:27.59 | absurdhero | ill try killing more stuff from the file |
| 00:28.05 | absurdhero | alright |
| 00:31.01 | absurdhero | ok updated |
| 00:31.07 | absurdhero | same post |
| 00:31.41 | absurdhero | oh maybe not http://eugeneciurana.com/pastebin/pastebin.php?show=1149 |
| 00:32.39 | rexsum | wow thats huge |
| 00:32.43 | absurdhero | ya |
| 00:32.52 | absurdhero | think ill take out the cruft, as I said |
| 00:32.57 | absurdhero | something could be breaking it |
| 00:37.25 | absurdhero | ok now down to 34 lines :) |
| 00:39.13 | absurdhero | still has same error though |
| 00:39.45 | absurdhero | ok nevermind, lol its starting |
| 00:39.48 | absurdhero | now to see if the mapping works |
| 00:41.57 | absurdhero | ok, the trailing slash is the whole problem |
| 00:41.58 | absurdhero | get rid of it |
| 00:42.07 | absurdhero | it breaks things, err, the leading slash |
| 00:42.28 | absurdhero | it broke the pattern-matching for me, and you may want to try without it |
| 00:44.25 | rexsum | ah |
