在Tomcat 7上运行Servlet应用程序时遇到错误

Question

“I have defined welcome file list in servlet program. still my application is not loading the same at the time of startup.what can be the reason? Note that i have put that html file inside web inf folder.”

I have rebuilt and redeploy my application. still it doesn't working.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="3.0">
  <welcome-file-list>
  <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>
  <display-name>VoterApp</display-name>
  <servlet>
      <servlet-name>wert</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>VoterServ</servlet-class>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>wert</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/voterSite</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

It should load index.html on startup when i run my web application VoterApp but i am getting resource not available error.

Just try to move your index.html file outside of the WEB-INF folder, in the root directory.

rootFolder
 |-- WEB-INF
 |    `-- web.xml
 `-- index.html

It should work.
