I have created a JSP page and from this page i will invoke a servlet and process something and redirect back to same JSP.

But when i deploy only JSP all is fine. But when i include my servlet in a project tomcat 8 fails to start and it throws below error.

I defined my web.xml in following way

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee" xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="3.1">   <display-name>SearchBoxcComp</display-name>   <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>SearchBoxNew.jsp</welcome-file>   </welcome-file-list>   <servlet>
    <servlet-name>SolrServlet1</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>Servlets.SolrServlet1</servlet-class>   </servlet>

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>SolrServlet1</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>SolrServlet1</url-pattern>   </servlet-mapping> </web-app>

Please help me to resolve this

If I look at your error logs, it says it is caused by 

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid <url-pattern> SolrServlet1 in servlet mapping

Please use /SolrServlet1 instead of SolrServlet1 (basically prepending a forward slash) in your url-pattern and check the results.

The url-pattern specification:

  1. A string beginning with a ‘/’ character and ending with a ‘/*’ suffix is used for path mapping.
  2. A string beginning with a ‘*.’ prefix is used as an extension mapping.
  3. A string containing only the ’/’ character indicates the "default" servlet of the application. In this case the servlet path is the request URI minus the context path and the path info is null.
  4. All other strings are used for exact matches only.

  • Thanks for the response.. My default JSP is "SearchBoxNew.jsp" as mentioned in web.xml. ..... In this jsp following code is present
    which i use to call SolrServlet1
     – AVINASH Feb 27 '16 at 05:51
  • I believe then your url-pattern should be /SearchBoxcComp/SolrServlet1, in any case if url pattern is correctly configured you should not be getting this error – Anil Feb 27 '16 at 05:53
  • Tried this too.. No success.. – AVINASH Feb 27 '16 at 05:55
  • Are u getting the same error. Please add the stack trace error that you are getting now – Anil Feb 27 '16 at 05:57
  • Bellow is the error log – AVINASH Feb 27 '16 at 06:03
  • Now it is a separate issue. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/solr/client/solrj/SolrServerException. You have problems with the way you are building your application as it is not getting above class SolrServerException at runtime. – Anil Feb 27 '16 at 06:08
  • Thanks Anil.. Issue is solved no.. The jar file which has SolrServerException i had added to class path initially but now i kept in WEB-INF/lib.. anddd that worked :) – AVINASH Feb 27 '16 at 07:11
  • Good answer for this question – Lova Chittumuri May 11 '17 at 11:12

I had a Similar issue... Solved it by adding '/' in web.xml

It seems to be the same issue here your code looks like

 `<url-pattern>SolrServlet1</url-pattern>`

correct way is adding the '/' <url-pattern>/SolrServlet1</url-pattern>
