GWT + GAE 007 – Check your web.xml configurations

So, after learning about how gsp [groovy server pages!] (and thus jsp) work I thought I’d give try to make my page a bit more maintainable.

But it took me quite a while to get Eclipse to recognise jsp properly and luckily I finally found a solution!

But that wasn’t all. It’s been a while since I last tinkered with the appengine and all its configurations and i kept getting a 503, service_unavailable error. After an hour of staring at my web.xml file, I noticed I didn’t specify the exact path to my servlet *doh!* Let this be a lesson to all.

That is all for this post – nothing interesting to report but do stay tuned for something exciting soon =)
