Hi All,
My application is a spring 2.5 application. I am trying to specify two servlets inside web.xml:
1) dispatcherservlet ---- spring dispatcher servlet
2) EmailServlet ----- This is an HTTP servlet which is available from inside a jar file. The jar file is added as a lib in the web application. This servlet acts as a client to a particular web-service. The application will invoke this client which in-turn will call the web-service. My web.xml is as follows:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<context-param>
<!-- the url where the web-service is put -->
<param-name>WEBSERVICE_HOST</param-name>
<param-value>http://ABCD:7200</param-value>
</context-param>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>EmailServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.abc.EmailServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>EmailServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/EmailService</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<context-param>
<description>URI of the default page the servlets should return if there is a processing error</description>
<param-name>DEFAULT_ERROR_PAGE</param-name>
<param-value>/fail.jsp</param-value>
</context-param>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>home.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
</web-app>
I am trying to invoke the email service from my page as below:
<form method="post" id="emailThisPageForm" name="emailThisPageForm" action="/EmailService" >
However, the email is not getting send. It seems the Email servlet is not getting invoked.
Can someone please suggest a solution for this? Do I need to add something additional to invoke the servlet?
Please help.
