B4J Question B4J not running in server

The jetty server is running, but it can't find the resource requested by the browser (root document / usually index.html), so it's likely a routing or path configuration problem.

Jetty serves (out of box) anything in the www folder/sub-folders and the handlers you have setup up. In your program, the only two handlers you have set up are AddAnimal and Report, therefore http://localhost:51042/AddAnimal and http://localhost:51042/Report are valid "pages". If you want Jetty to serve something up when you access just http://localhost:51042, then do

1) Create a www folder in the same location of your .jar file and then put an index.html file in that folder (could also be an index.jsp).

OR

2) Create a new Server Handler class module and use
before srvr.Start

I followed his advice and it worked perfectly. It was a great tip
Thank you so much

I am new to B4J.
I have created the www folder and created an index.html file in that folder in the same location as the .jar file.
I have created a new class module handler "MyNewServerHandlerClass"

I have added:

The index.html file does not load.
If I write some code in "MyNewServerHandlerClass" such as:

"Hello" shows up in http://localhost:51042
But NOT the contents of the index.html file.

How do I go about displaying the index.html file itself?
Thanks

edit: If I type http://localhost:51042/index.html I can view the file.

My answer should have contained an or. Do either #1 or #2. If you want index.html to work, then remove the handler. I’m updating my previous answer.

I tried everything else except...
removing the handler.

Thanks for this. It advances my understanding of the B4J processes.
