I keep getting /result.jsp is not available message when testing the JSP.
this is how I compiled the BeerSelect.java class

javac -classpath "c:\Program Files\tomcat\common\lib\servlet-api.jar";classes;. -d classes src\com\example\web\BeerSelect.java

I did not get any error and the .class file was created
so I coped it from the development directory to the deployment directory
Tomcat\Beer-v1\Web-INF\classes\com\example\web

Then restarted tomcat.

then I typed in http://localhost:8080/Beer-v1/form.html

the form displayed then I hit Submit that is when I get the error

Any Help I have been stuck on this for the second day now

thanks in indvance

You have probably placed the result.jsp into the wrong directory. If you follow the examples, then it should be directly under the deployment directory (e.g. tomcat/webapps/Beer-v1) and not in the WEB-INF directory.

Hi,

just have a look at the extension of the file name .It may be a text file instead of JSP file,So while saving te file ,enter the file name in double quotes ie "result.jsp" in the save as dialog box.Restart the Tomcat ,i hope now you will get the correct output.

Thank you

Bertold, Magesh and Satou, the problem is fixed

Magesh you were right the file extention was in text format.
renaming it with "result.jsp" fixed the problem.

This is what my form.html looks like
<html><body>
<h1 align="center">Beer Selection Page</h1>
<form method="POST"
action="SelectBeer.do">
Select beer characteristics<p>
Color:
<select name="color" size="1">
<option>light
<option>amber
<option>brown
<option>dark
</select>
<br><br>
<center>
<input type="SUBMIT">
</center>
</form></body><html>

Thanks again
