web app does not compile on Windows [message #214087]

Hello Group,

I created my first web app on Windows XP professional with eclipse IDE for
EE version 3.3.2. However, at the last step when I try to compile the
application by going to

Project->Build All,

it does not create any class file for SnoopServlet.class.

I tried is several times.

And thus my application does not display in the window although the server
has started. The page comes up with

"The page cannot be displayed" and host of other messages.

Can someone help me with the compilation of the web app.

Thanks

nagrik

Actually it compiles now but does not display. I am following the WTP
tutorial given on eclipse site.

I reached the end, build all, started the server, but the page does not
display. It appears I am missing a .jar file or something very minor.

I am running eclipse IDE 3.3.2 on Windows XP.

The application does not run on stand alone web server with the following
url

localhost:8080/snoop
or
localhost:8080/WTP-Tutorial-1/snoop.

Help needed.

Thanks.

Hello Group,

It says

Can not find server.

I am typing
localhost:8080/WTP-Tutorial-1/snoop
or
localhost:8080/snoop

on either stand alone server or in eclipse web browser. Both places it
says can not find server.

I have created, selected and started the server inside eclipse

Thanks

Hi Nagrik,

Have you deployed your application to the server and is the server
listening on port 8080? You can double check your steps by following the
Web application portion of Stephen Schaub's Creating Database Web
Applicaitons with Eclipse article [1].

Have you tried "Cleaning" the project a couple of times before trying to
build? I find that sometimes helps...
