... and what does the documentation say?

I have compiled the file and placed in

C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomc at 5.5\webapps\ROO T\WEB-INF\classes\


and

i opened the browser and gave the url as
http://localhost:8080/servlet/ser


but
i am getting an error called

/servlet/ser does not found.

what should i do for running the servlet.

This bluntly shows that you haven't read all of the documentation. The docs also
talk about a deployment decriptor (a bit of xml) which you have to create.

kind regards,

You need to define the Servlet in deployment descriptor (web.xml) in the WEB-INF folder. If you are using an IDE like Netbeans or Eclipse you may want to look at having them create a WAR file to deploy to Tomcat.


This web.xml would let you call http://localhost:8080/myServlet
