How to bind a servlet to a context?

Question

I got

javax.servlet.ServletException: Error instantiating servlet class servlets.MemoServlet
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name servlets.MemoServlet is not bound in this Context

when using

<form action="MemoServlet">

I know I could use managedbeans, but I've to use servlets.

I suspect the problem has to do with JSF.

context.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context antiJARLocking="true" path="/MemoWeb/faces"/>

web.xml:

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>MemoServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/faces/MemoServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>MemoServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>servlets.MemoServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

I seem to have this problem all over the place:

com.sun.faces.mgbean.ManagedBeanCreationException: An error occurred performing resource injection on managed bean userManager
....
Caused by: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name user.UserManager is not bound in this Context

Answer 1

Sounds like as if the servlet is incorrectly been declared as a @WebService. This has nothing to do with JSF.

I strongly recommend to forget the JSF bit for this moment as you seem to misunderstand its purposes. The phrase "I have to use servlets" hints that your problem is deeper than that. I suggest to leave this all aside and get yourself through the basic Java EE books/tutorials first to get a more decent grasp and better understanding of how all the stuff is supposed to work and to be used.
