i need to run java class by using servlet then it will redirect to another page.
could you give the proper solution
You don't call classes - you call methods.
There's nothing special about servlets except the requirement that they implement HttpServlet. Servlets and other classes they interact with all get compiled into WEB-INF/classes on the server.
To forward a request to, say, "other.jsp" you do:
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/other.jsp").forward(request,response);
The proper solution is to not "call a class", if you mean you want to do what the command line would do via "java myClass".You should rewrite your class so that you can create an instance of it and call its methods. Read some basic Java tutorials if you don't know how to do that.
