I am using Tomcat 3.2.1 with JBoss and configured with no Web server. I am trying to create a web application wherein i need to redirect to a JSP page. When i try using servlet.getServletContext() to get the RequestDispatcher, it seems to be giving a null pointer exception on line 205:GenericServlet. I have set the context on Tomcat and the problem persists. I have moved to using response.sendRedirect(..) but feel that the RequestDispatcher allows relative page redirect. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Try using the same method (getRequestDispatcher()) but instead of getting it from the servlet context, get it from the request itself. It should work.
