Newbie can't run servlet [message #1386748]

When I select run-as "Run on Server" on my HelloWorld servlet project, I see only an empty root dir list that begins "Directory Listing For /" instead of a page with "Hello World". I don't have a clue as to how to correct this, being a new to eclipse. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks.

(I have since found and corrected my error.)

What happens when you select the Servlet, rather than the project, and "Run on Server"?

Hi Nitin,

Thanks for your interest in my problem. I discovered my error - I entered a package name in the project where none was needed and then failed to see the complications that were created by doing that.

Best,
Alan
