I am trying to revive an old project, I already converted it to Dynamic web module and made the jsp files working, however, the controllers cannot be seen even though I already mapped it in web.xml. It says: The requested resource (/testproject/servlet/testproject.Controller.TestController) is not available.
Note: I am running this using tomcat 4 and java 1.5. Btw, I replaced some names to 'test...' to censor the name. Just in case.
Web.xml (I edited the web.xml highlighted in the Project Structure image:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
