Re: WebGroup/Virtual Host has not been defined (newbie at work)

You need to use both.

When you install a WAR file, it asks you for the context name (if you deployed an Ear file the context is in application.xml). The other thing you need to use is in the url-pattern (the display name doesn't have any functional purpose).

For example, if your context name in MyApp, the request to call your servlet is http://mymachine/MyApp/cmd.

If you don't remember the context name, you can see it in the log files when the app starts.

Ok. As mentioned in the subject, this is a newbie at work here. So
pardon my question: Should I use the war file folder name as the context
name or should I use the name indicated in the display-name tag of the
web.xml as the context name?

You need to include the context name (this was specified when you
installed the War file) of your application in the URL.

Subject: [WEB400] WebGroup/Virtual Host has not been defined (newbie at
work)

I'm getting this error "SRVE0255E: A WebGroup/Virtual Host to handle
/cmd has not been defined"

Below is my web.xml
<display-name>

dhiveCommandXML</display-name>

<servlet>

<servlet-name>CommandServlet</servlet-name>


<servlet-class>com.arch.servlet.command.CommandServlet</servlet-class>

<init-param>

-<param-name>com.arch.dhive.propertyFile</param-name>


-<param-value>/javaapps/staging/boss.ear/resources/properties/boss.prope
rties</param-value>
</init-param>



</servlet>



<servlet-mapping>

<servlet-name>CommandServlet</servlet-name>

<url-pattern>/cmd</url-pattern>

</servlet-mapping>




Does anyone know what I need to do to correct this? I'm using WAS6.1
and I got the dhiveCommandXML web module pointing to default_host.


thanks.
