Sometimes, when creating servlet the class file may not be generated in build folder. We should clean the project then build. It worked for me.
http://i.hizliresim.com/OqYz0n.png
Try cleaning the project and run.
If you are using eclipse Project -> Clean
for NetBeans try Run -> Clean and Build Project
I think you should write in your web.xml
<servlet-class>example.webApp.Test</servlet-class> instead of <servlet-class>example.webApp</servlet-class>

I think somethin wrong in this section:
<servlet-class>website.web.HomeServlet</servlet-class>
Instead try:
<servlet-class>website.HomeServlet</servlet-class>
First of all, your web.xml lists TestServlet as the class name for your server, as opposed to HomeServlet.
Second, it seems that although your HomeServlet class is in package website.web, it's physically located in a folder called website, not website/web. I would be surprised to see this even compile correctly?
I want to try a simple program but getting following error. I am using Eclipse Kelper and Tomcat 7.0.
Tried a lot of things, but nothing is working for me.

Could somebody explain what is the problem?
Try this configuration or rename your config accordingly :
I prefer to name the servlet as 'dispatcher' and it's context file as dispatcher-servlet.xml. It worked fine for me.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>

</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
The Servlet.init() errors mainly occur due to mismatching of versions of the Jar files of your spring MVC, Check out all your libraries by right click on the project>properties>build path, and remove any mismatched jar release.
Also delete the jar library from your lib folder.
Build the project again and the run it.
try this out:
servlet-context.xml:

I'm playing with Spring Framework in IntelliJ IDEA 13.1.1.
In IntelliJ I choose: File -> New Project -> Spring -> Spring MVC -> Create Project From Template. It creates default Spring project with configuration of deploying WAR:exploded to Tomcat Server. I change nothing to the default configuration. It builds and deploys correctly, but the result is following:

model.addAttribute("message", "Hello world!");
return "hello";
}
}
This occurs on two different machines, under Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7.
I downloaded some other Spring MVC projects from the Internet and they run just fine, so I guess the problem is with the files IntelliJ generates automatically, which I find weird. However, I was not able to find which part causes this problem.

I was facing the same problem and changing the JAVA SDK (File >> Project
Structure >> Projects)from 1.8 to 1.6 or 1.7 helped remove the problem.
First you need to add the listener class on web.xml, its the ContextLoaderListener
after your </servlet-mapping> add:
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
If you get errors about the mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml location add this to the top of <servlet>:
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
Docs:
ContextLoaderListener
I am learning how to make web applications and have just implemented a simple one that should display the current date on the web page. However, I am receiving an error while doing so. I ran it on debug mode with a breakpoint placed on: resp.getWriter().println(new Date());
Here is my Java Code:
package org.test.webapp;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Date;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
public class TestServlet extends HttpServlet {
#Override
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
throws ServletException, IOException {
resp.getWriter().println(new Date());
}
}
Web.XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Test</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.test.webapp/TestServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Test</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/test</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<display-name>Example01</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
</web-app>
This is the error I am receiving:

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/6.0.32 logs.
your serlvet class should reference a class name. so instead of this:
<servlet-class>org.test.webapp/TestServlet</servlet-class>
which is an illegal class name (that your server fails to find, hence the exception), try this:
<servlet-class>org.test.webapp.TestServlet</servlet-class>
