Fw: Servlets

Woops.  You are right of course.  I am glad Joe pointed that out.

I should have said in step 2 that you have to set up your http config file
on the as/400 to enable servlets by adding the SERVICE, ServerInit, and
ServerTerm directives in the right spot in your http config file.  For us
that would be something like:

Service       /servlet/*
/QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/QZHJSVLT.SRVPGM:AdapterService
Service       /*.jsp
/QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/QZHJSVLT.SRVPGM:AdapterService
... pass and map directives
ServerInit /QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/QZHJSVLT.SRVPGM:AdapterInit
/QIBM/UserData/IBMWebAS/myinstance/properties/jvm.properties
ServerTerm /QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/QZHJSVLT.SRVPGM:AdapterExit

Your config might look a little different.  For example you might have your
properties in the bootstrap.properties instead of jvm.properties like we do.
Anyway, the websphere documentation has a whole chapter on how to
setup/configure the http server for servlets.  (BTW: The second service
directive is only needed if you are running jsp's.)

Sorry if I confused anyone.  I really was just trying to give a REALLY top
level description of the servlet process, and I messed that up.  Hopefully I
got it right this time.
