Rather than just putting it in bold, did you *read* the stack trace? What does line 18 of web.xml say?

mlnm · 08-30-2012, 10:58 AM

yea first i checked that but no error what so ever when i deployed the same project on windows machine.
I am getting desired webpage and all the contents from mysql database.Thanks for response..

Did you compare your web.xml files at line 18 on the Windows and Linux versions? What's the difference?

even when I mention it, you're not going to show us?? there is clearly *SOMETHING* wrong with it some how, without giving us some more information, why do you expect us to be able to help? I could guess at an incorrect file format? an ^M on the end maybe? Please don't expect us to be psychic here.
