Not being able to invoke servlet from the jsp page using web.xml

Here is the sample web.xml code :

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>register</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>RegisterServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>register</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/Registration</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

While opening the page Registration on my browser(am using tomcat 7.0),it shows the error :

The requested resource (/yaman/proj/Registration) is not available. (404 error)

Even when i remove all the files from the class folder,it says the same,as expected. Cant identify where exactly does the problem lie.
Please help!

I was having a really weird error,and i have no idea why it happened.
All my files for my project were listed under webapps/yaman/proj/ ..when i was using tomcat to register myself using a register.jsp page(which was intern mapped to a servlet using web.xml),it gave me a 404 error,saying the resource is not available.
But when i cut and paste all the files from "proj",copied it to "yaman" and deleted "proj",it somehow worked and the servlets also worked fine. I have no idea why such an error arised.
If any of you folks have an idea why this happened or experienced same sort of problem,feel free to add comments.
