web.xml file problem in tomcat

843836Mar 9 2004 — edited Apr 2 2004
Hi i need help in this... its urgent

currently i just subscribe to a web hosting site and i need to start the private tomcat in the web server..

The followings are the instructions and i have follow them but i do not know how to create a web.xml file to store in the folder indicated for example a HelloServlet that im testing :

To setup servlet, you need to configure servlet into the file web.xml which needs to be placed in /var/www/html/WEB-INF directory.

www root directory or webapps:/var/www/htm

Classes directory located in: /var/www/html/WEB-INF/Classes/
There you will need to upload your Java class file.

Our default url-mapping for servlet is: /servlet/*
To check servlet in your browser: www.mydomain.net/servlet/HelloWorld
Jsp Files - Upload anywhere in /var/www/html



all the above steps are follow except the web.xml file which i suppose to write and store in the folder... but i actually try to write one but i still cannot load my servlet on the webpage... test on standalone tomcat works.

pls help its urgent!!!
