Netbeans/Tomcat problem

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me.

I installed NetBeans IDE 3.5.1 (already have JDK 1.3.1) on Windows XP.

I created a simple HelloWorld servlet project. When I try to execute
it, the Progress Monitor says "The Tomcat server is not running
correctly" Then a browser comes up with the message "The browser
could not connect to the requested URL"

I tried typing "http://localhost:8080/servlet/HelloWorld" but it
didn't work.

Does anyone know what's wrong? This is not a good first impression of
NetBeans.

Thanks.

Well, on the risk of belaboring the obvious, did you try to find out
why Tomcat didn't start? Can you start Tomcat manually?
