Project does not open

[rogernem]

I´ve download an example aplication (leadapp) and I´m trying to open it in NetBeans.
I have everything installed and running ok: jdk, jr, etc

But when I try to open this project I click its folder and the button "Open Project" but it wont let me open it.

In "Server" -> "Tomcat 6.0" -> the project is listed but when I try to run it I get:

   
HTTP Status 404 - /leadapp/  
type Status report  
message /leadapp/  

description The requested resource (/leadapp/) is not available.  
Apache Tomcat/6.0.26

Any ideas?

just suggesting... why dont you try to open it using command propmt?

The HTTP status code 404 means the file was not found.
Does the server know where the file you are asking for is located?

how can I do that?

Yes...it does...but how do I make sure of that?

Then why does it give a 404 return? Is there some other problem?

You try to open this project from NetBean and it didn't open,

that means it doesn't have all necessary files needed for NetBean to open.

Create a project in netbean, then try to copy paste all file in that project. Remember don't just paste it any where.
for eg- paste all files from WEB-INF to project WEB-INF.

The http status 404 means the server isn't getting resource for the request ur generating.(check url)Better check the project web.xml file.
