RE: ClassCastException Error in a Java Servlet

Thanks Barry,
I've already specified the name test to be associated with my Hello class in
the Tomcat settings.  For my HelloWorld class I used the name heyworld and
that works just fine.  I'm keeping my classes in the
webapps/PVSW/WEB-INF/classes folder.  I didn't understand what you meant by
creating the link.  I already have my form.html which gets the information.
Are you suggesting I change that name to index.html?

Thanks for you help,
Eric

I don't think Tomcat can find your servlet. In the <form> you need to tell
where the servlet is.  In Tomcat it's usually something like <form
method="get" action="servlet/Hello">  You must have the word servlet first.
You are pointing to the http server, you don't need to.  The class is
usually
in the webapps/applname/WEB-INF/classes  folder. Where applname is whatever
you called the application. You should see the examples folder under
webapps.
 So copy a folder that's under webapps to whatever name you want lets say
test, move your html doc to webapps/test called index.html, and move your
class to webapps/test/WEB-INF/classes folder, change your action in the html
like above, then type <A
HREF="http://myas400.com:8000/test/index.html";>http://myas400.com:8000/test/
index.html</A>.  And give it a
try.

Try that.
