Is there a way to load a custom HttpServlet to GAE? I uploaded a project that included an HttpServlet in the .server package and added it to the web.xml...

<servlet>
   <servlet-name>testServlet</servlet-name>
   <servlet-class>gwtone.server.TestServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
   <servlet-name>testServlet</servlet-name>
   <url-pattern>/tester/greet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Is there something else I am missing, or is it not possible?

--------EDIT--------

some things that appear when i init my server, which im not used to seeing...

and here is what shows when it crashes..

  • The configuration provided looks ok. Can you provide log or error message? – h3xStream Jan 22 '12 at 04:14
  • VerifyError probably refer to invalid bytecode. Verify that the Servlet class is free of compilation error (more specifically the doGet method or the constructor). If possible, post the Servlet code. – h3xStream Jan 22 '12 at 04:42
  • servlet code posted in edit #2, and it doesnt print the 0,1,2,3 it just responds with status 500. also, i work with GWT at work, but this is the first solo project with having to set up eclipse and stuff too. – user1163009 Jan 22 '12 at 04:56

    Seems to be a JDK 1.7 issue : https://groups.google.com/a/googleproductforums.com/forum/#!msg/apps/GCwVC-Vizpk/7KT5qna4pU4J – h3xStream Jan 22 '12 at 05:04
  • yeah, i tried like 12 different things. Can you not use indigo with GWT or something? – user1163009 Jan 22 '12 at 18:49
  • This error keeps biting me and I also use GAE! it occurs when I call some static methods that return a BlobKey. Here's a Gist with byte code https://gist.github.com/ZiglioNZ/bd1d7d424727b3f26c64 – ZiglioUK Oct 20 '13 at 11:31

As BalusC pointed out, one solution to the problem is to just use JDK6.

Another solution, if you want to stay with JDK7, would be to use "-XX:-UseSplitVerifier" as an argument for the VM. Go to

Window → Preferences → Java → Installed JREs → Edit... → Default VM arguments

and add it there.

    this is a silly solution: 1. UseSplitVerifier is being deprecated by Oracle (if I find the link to that, I'll post it) 2. it may solve the development server, what about GAE's production server? – ZiglioUK Oct 20 '13 at 11:30

GAE uses Java 1.6, but you've compiled the code with Java 1.7. You need to recompile with Java 1.6. As per the comments, you're using Eclipse; you can set the Java compiler level in Java > Compiler section of project's properties.

Using -XX:-UseSplitVerifier is a temporary solution. Now java uses the previous version of the bytecode verifier which tolerates this bad or missing stackmap frames. Java8 doesnt support this option.

I could solve this issue by setting Eclipse Mars / Project properties / Java compiler :

  • Compiler compliance level to 1.7 (as I don't have 1.6 anymore)
  • Generated .class files compatibility : 1.6
  • Source compatibility : 1.6

as I didn't have 1.7 specific code :-)

Server Ubuntu + Tomcat 7.0.52 on JVM 1.7.0_85-b01 Dev Eclipse Mars on JDK 7u55
