Apache2 / Tomcat 6 / GWT 2.0 - Could use some help

[eric whitmore]

I have setup Apache2 + Tomcat 6 as my test server on ubuntu server 9.10 x64 and i am using GWT 2.0. I have installed Eclipse w/ GWT 2.0 plugins on my windows workstation and have created a default webapp which works great in the Eclipse test environment. I have no issues when i compile and run in eclipse.

When i try to copy all the code from the war directory in my eclipse project to my Tomcat 6 server i get a 404 file not found error whenever i try to make a server call. My client side javascript looks fine but my server calls return the following:

192.168.1.50 - - [15/Feb/2010:22:29:20 -0500] "POST /simple/greet HTTP/ 1.1" 404 991

I have verified that GreetingServiceImpl.class is located at /var/lib/tomcat6/domain1/WEB-INF/classes/simple/server/GreetingServiceImpl.class

Here is my webapp's web.xml file found in /var/lib/tomcat6/domain1/ WEB-INF/

 
<!-- Servlets -->
  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>greetServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>simple.server.GreetingServiceImpl</servlet-class>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>greetServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/simple/greet</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
  <!-- Default page to serve -->
  <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>Simple.html</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>
</web-app>

Now here is the weird thing... if i uncomment the following code in the tomcat web.xml file everything starts working:

 
<servlet>
        <servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
          org.apache.catalina.servlets.InvokerServlet
        </servlet-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>debug</param-name>
            <param-value>0</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

I AM NOT uncommenting the servlet mapping for invoker just the class info.

 
<!--
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
-->

I know know invoker is BAD BAD BAD but i dont know what else to do to make this work...

Below are my config files in their entirety:
