Oops, I don’t know if you’re using a framework like Spring, but if you’re using pure Servlet you need to configure the project’s web.xml file:

Something like that:

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>LoginServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>pacote.LoginServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    // Classe servlet que responde por essa URL
    <servlet-name>LoginServlet</servlet-name> 
    // URL que deseja mapear
    <url-pattern>/login</url-pattern> 
</servlet-mapping>

To create the file in Netbeans:

1. In the top menu click on File, choose New File.
2. On the screen that opens, select Web category, then select Standard Deployment Descriptor.
3. Click on Next.
4. Click Finish. The web.xml file will be created in the web/WEB-INF directory/.
