Greetings,

I just installed the latest wtp and got a problem to create some dynamic
web app.

Here are the steps I have done so far.
Platform : WTP 1.5.2 on Mac OS X
Downloaded Tomcat 5.5 and test in wituout eclipse and worked ok.

Configured eclipse to this server.
Created a simple application of test and tried to "run it on server".
Tomcat starts ok.
Opening integrated browser to http://localhost:8080/sampleapp ->404 Error.

Pretty weird since my app is supposed to be published.

Any ideas ?

Thank you

In the absence of a welcome file (typically index.jsp, index.html, etc.)
the default behavior for your URL is to display a directory listing.
However, in Tomcat 5.5, directory listings have been disabled by default
due to a DOS vulnerability. As a result, 404 Error is the expected
response in this situation. Add a welcome file or enable directory
listings to see something for this URL.

Cheers,
Larry
