I know that this kind of question was asked a view times. But I read many posts about this and couldn't find the right answer to fix my problem.
I have this web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" version="3.0">
<display-name>Name</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>ActionServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>bachelor.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ActionServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/ActionServlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
And of course there is the ActionServlet.java in the Folder: Java Resources/src/bachelor/ActionServlet.java
But when my index.jsp does this javascript:
$.get('ActionServlet',{user:username},function(responseText) {
$('#welcometext').text(responseText);
});
I get the following error when runnig it in eclipse.

Does anyone know why I get this error? Thanks for your help!

Hence BalusC doesn't write an answer. Here is his answer:
Apparently the project is not built. Can you ensure that the option
Project > Build Automatically is checked?
Building the project fixed the problem.
