Read the first line of the error message carefully.

Are you sure the following line is correct in your web.xml?

After checking that it was working, what changes did you make that made the server go mad?

no changes in the xml file only the changes in the BeerSelect.java file as you can see in
the code to call the result .jsp file to make the output page..
previously the servelt itself was showing the output ...


the error remains the same..
yes, restarted the server if that is re-deployment means..

Just compared your code with the book. The line in web.xml mentioned in my first post here is indeed different from how it is in the book. Can you check again?

the difference is in encoding
the one in the book is ISO-8...
but i am using UTF-8..
because that one was not working for me , someone suggested me UTF on javaranch..
i told you it was working , the problem started when i used result.jsp

The error is in your web.xml, as per the error message:Why do you not believe it? You might *think* it worked before, but I guarantee you it did not. Look at where you define your namespaces:I've edited it to make the error easier to spot. Next time pay attention to the error message, and be careful about making assumptions about what's wrong.

i am still unable to spot the error...
i have no knowledge of xml all i know is that it is used to map servlet class with
url name..
i copy pasted the code from the book..
if you can elaborate the error you see in the code , it will be nice..please

List cannot be resolved to a type
same error is returned for iterator and second occurrence of list ...
