where can I find step by step deployment guide?

Our docs for creating WAR files are here.

More detailed information on building and deploying GWT apps is available from Google's GWT web site and forum and from a variety of other places.

If you are looking for dcos specific to a particular web server, you need to review the docs provided by that web server and visit their respective forums.

but when deploy to tomcat 5.5
I got the error seen below:
HTTP Status 404 - /PBTourPortal/
type Status report
message /PBTourPortal/
description The requested resource (/PBTourPortal/) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5

I don't know what would cause that, but there seems to be a lot of discussion/advice available via Google on the subject of "HTTP Status 404 tomcat".

when I generate war file from GWT Deployment menu

inside generated web.xml the following lines exist :


-----------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app>

</web-app>
-----------------------------------------------------------------

huh where can i do something wrong?
I am using latest gwt designer and gwt from google...

[Eric Clayberg]

We need to see a test case.

[vampie]

Here you can download the project
It is sample GWT application with a button and window.alert thing
nothing else...
I am using eclipse 3.3 and Windows XP 32 bit
GWT and designer is last version

can you send me valid web.xml for the Standard ImageViewer Class?
so i may understand where i am doing wrong...

[Eric Clayberg]

Your test case does not include any remove services or servlets, so there is no server logic and nothing to declare in the web.xml.

Here's an example of what a web.xml file would look like, if your project contained a single remote service...

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app>
   <servlet>
      <servlet-name>com.mycompany.project.server.MyServiceImpl</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>com.mycompany.project.server.MyServiceImpl</servlet-class>
   </servlet>
   <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>com.mycompany.project.server.MyServiceImpl</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/MyService</url-pattern>
   </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

huh ?
i did exactly before i deployed. so where can i make it wrong?
i am confused really...

I don't know. Maybe you deployed your WAR into the wrong directory. We aren't Tomcat experts, so debugging a Tomcat deployment is not something we can really help you with.

I'm sorry, but this really isn't the right forum for expert help in deploying to Tomcat servers. Google's GWT forum would be a better choice for questions like this as would a forum dedicated to Tomcat.
