You didn't answer my question.

Did you deploy the servlet to Glassfish?

Lew:

Is the web server running on localhost, and listening to port 8001?
What do you see if you just browse http://localhost:8001/?


gert:

yep


Please answer the second question.

Navigating right directly to a ".do" URL is a bit rare; usually that is done
under the hood by Struts for you.


I jus use plain xhtml with javascript doing a xhtml request to the
glassfish server ? I dont use struts i think ?


Then why are you calling the URL "appointment.do"?

To put that another way, how exactly did you come up with that URL?

I dont like jsp [sic], i always sent xml back and forward to the server with
httprequest so i can strictly split up layout and data handling later
on.


JSP generates XHTML if that's what you want, and its purpose is to separate
"layout" from "data handling" and other logic.

Where is the application context in your URL? "appointment.do" is not the
name of your application, which name is absent from the URL you posted. What
happens if you open your browser to the raw application (which I'll call "foo"
for pedagogical purposes): http://localhost:8001/foo/?


static files are located at

http://localhost:8001/w3c/appointment/appointment.htm


You didn't answer the questions. I asked where you mounted the application,
and what happens if you navigate to its URL.

Please answer the questions.

If that works OK, and you've set up your app's deployment descriptor
correctly, then tryhttp://localhost:8001/foo/appointment.do.


I think it has something to do with the descriptor i think , because i
have no idea what a descriptor is :)


Then you need first to study how to deploy applications to Glassfish. Use the
product documentation.

Then come back and report what happens when you follow directions.

I'd try this without Struts first, though, and just mount the servlet
someplace reasonable, likehttp://localhost:8001/foo/appointmentfor example.
  Struts is just a complication you don't need until you learn how to deploy a
servlet.


I dont now struts either only xhtml and javascript :) Only want a
response from the servlet without using anything else.


Then deploy your application in accordance with Glassfish's instructions.
