I'm trying to get the Getting Started guide running from this page:
https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/usingeclipse
Running Eclipse on Linux, it works in developer mode. The compile completed successfully too, so I copied the contents of the 'war' directory to the doc root of Apache on my local box. When I access it at:
http://localhost/GWT_Example.html
the front page loads, but when I click the "Send to server" button the dialog pops up with:
https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/usingeclipse

An error occurred while attempting to contact the server. Please check your network connection and try again. Checking the apache error log I find: [Tue May 15 09:56:55 2012] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /var/www/gwt_example/greet, referer: http://localhost/GWT_Example.html Sure enough there isn't a file called "greet". I must have missed something fundamental, but since this is my first hour with GWT I have no idea what I might be. :o} Can someone point? |

greet isn't a file, it's a servlet endpoint. Your GreetingServiceImpl
class is mapped to that endpoint in your web.xml file (under the war/
WEB-INF folder).
So I'd check your web.xml file and your GreetingServiceImpl class.
Make sure the classnames match, make sure the compiled class (under
WEB-INF/classes) is there, check the deploy logs.
Actually, I notice that you just said Apache. Do you have tomcat (or
other Java app server) configured correctly? Apache can't serve
servlets without some help.
Hope that helps,
