@webServlet not working with tomcat 7 eclipse

2k views Asked by At

I am building a basic app to upload file to server in apache tomcat 7.

But whenever I use apache-commons-fileupload with tomcat and @webServlet, It does not start.

@WebServlet("/test123")
public class TestServlet extends HttpServlet {....

But When I remove @webServlet('/link-url') the application starts but is unable to find the resource at this url.

public class TestServlet extends HttpServlet {...

Even if I add the above link in web.xml the application does not start.

This is now clearly a ClassNotFoundException as seen here

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileItemFactory

You are missing the commons-fileupload.jar from your application classpath. Find, download, and put that jar in your application's /WEB-INF/lib folder and restart.
