Problem invoking servlet from portlet with PortletRequestDispatcher.invoke
Hello,
I think this has been asked before, but I can't seem to find an answer to it. I am trying to invoke a Servlet from my FacesPortlet class, but I keep getting this error:
com.ibm.wps.servlet.response.ServletResponseWrapper sendError EJPPG1039E: HTTP error reported by Portlet: 404 SRVE0190E: File not found: "/TestServlet"
Here is the code I am using to call my servlet from the render() method of my portlet class:
PortletContext ctxt = (PortletContext)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getConte xt();
PortletRequestDispatcher dispatcher = ctxt.getRequestDispatcher("/TestServlet");
dispatcher.include(request, response);
My servlet has a mapping in my web.xml file:
<servlet>
<display-name>TestServlet</display-name>
<servlet-name>TestServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>pagecode.TestServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>TestServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/TestServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I think my URL is messed up.... I have seen posts that recommend adding renderRequest.getContextPath() to the URL, but that didn't seem to work. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be grateful.
Thanks in advance!
