Invoking a servlet

You invoke servlets using the following syntax:

http://<server>:<port>/<context root>/servlet/<servlet alias>

where

server is the name of the machine hosting the application server.

port is the port on which the application server listens for requests.

context root is the Java Component context root.

servlet is a keyword indicating that a servlet follows.

servlet alias is the name to which the servlet is mapped in the Java Component installation’s web.xml file. A typical location for web.xml is <context root>\WEB-INF\web.xml.

Servlet names are case-sensitive. Do not modify the servlets, their names, or their mapping in web.xml.
