servlet 404 found error when using html form

I searched a lot but was not able to resolve it, need help.

I am trying to request something to a servlet which is under

project/src/com/servletfile.java

from a jsp file which is under

project/web-inf/jspfile.jsp

<form action="servletfile.java" >
      <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit" /> <br/><br/>
</form>

below is the web.xml 

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>servletfile</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.servletfile</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>servletfile</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/servletfile</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

however when i click on submit it says file not found.

change

<form action="servletfile.java"
  <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit" /> <br/><br/>
 </form>

to

 <form action="servletfile"
  <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit" /> <br/><br/>
 </form>

you are missing the basics.
