I am having a simple Servlet that send emails and an html-form:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>A form</title> </head> <body> <form action="feedback" method="post"> <!-- Simple text field --> <label for="name">Name </label> <input type="text" name="name"/> <br/> <!-- Email --> <label for="email">Email </label> <input type="email" name="email"/> <br/> <!-- Textarea --> <label for="description">Description </label> <textarea name="description" cols="50" rows="5">Type your comment here</textarea> <br/> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send Request"/> </form> </body> </html> In the web.xml Folder I registered and mapped the servlets. But when I press the send Button I just get:
HTTP ERROR 404
Problem accessing /feedback. Reason:
NOT_FOUND Where is still my problem?
