Java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid <url-pattern> MyServlet in servlet mapping

I am trying to learn J2EE myself. I'll start with the servlet. So I downloaded eclipse for J2ee., Tomcat works very well for the first few days ... but currently it doesn't work, reports that it gives errors, i.e. Tomcat v8.0 Server on localhost failed to start.

This is what the console shows when I try to start the Tomcat 8 server

I don't have enough privileges to comment, so I'm posting here!

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid <url-pattern> MyServlet in servlet mapping

      

The problem seems to be in your directory web.xml

in WEB-INF

where you defined the correct t23 path parameter and deploy it again!



For example:

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>myServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
