First:
Did Netbeans create a deployment descriptor for you (WEB-INF/web.xml)?
If so, look for a servlet mapping in the descriptor. It will look something
like this:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>HelloWorldServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/HelloWorld</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
"HelloWorldServlet" being the name of your servlet and and "HelloWorld" being
the mapping.
If so, you can access your servlet with the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/YOUR_APP_NAME/HelloWorld
Second:
If you create your own directory under TOMCAT_HOME/webapps,
you will need to create a sub-directory called WEB-INF in order for Tomcat to
autoDeploy it as an application.
