servlet problem while passing values of float from one servlet to other servlet

<!-- language: java-->
    package bhatti;
    public class find extends HttpServlet {

     @Override
     protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
     throws ServletException, IOException {

      response.setContentType("text/html;");
      PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

      out.println("<html><body>");
      out.println("<feildset>");
      out.println("<form action='display' method='get'>");
      out.println("<tr>");
      out.println("<td>ID :</td><td> <input type='text' name='id' style='width=70px;'></td><tr><br>");
      out.println("<tr><td>Uints: </tr><tr><input type='text' name='uints' style='width=70px;' ></td></tr><br>");
      out.println("<tr><td><input type='submit' value='submit' ></td></tr><br>");
      out.println("</form>");
      out.println("</feildset>");
      out.println("</body></html>");

      int i = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("id"));
      int u = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("uints"));

      float bill;

      bill = (float)(u * (1.5));

      float s;

      s = (float)(bill * 0.05);

      float totalbill;

      totalbill = bill - s;

      RequestDispatcher requestDispatcher = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("display.java");
      requestDispatcher.forward(request, response);

      request.setAttribute("id", i);
      request.setAttribute("uints", u);
      request.setAttribute("totalbill", totalbill);

     }
    }

second servlet

package bhatti;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;

public class display extends HttpServlet {

 @Override
 protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
 throws ServletException, IOException {

  response.setContentType("text/html;");
  PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

  int i = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("id"));

  int u = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("uints"));

  float tb = Float.parseFloat(request.getParameter("totalbill"));

  out.println("<p>ID: " + i + "  </p><br>");
  out.println("<p>Uints: " + u + "</p><br>");
  out.println("<p>Subsidy: " + "  5%" + "</p><br>");
  out.println("<h1>Total Bill:" + tb + "</h1><br>");

 }

}

float value is not sending to the other servlet

error is HTTP Status 500 -

type Exception report

message

description The server encountered an internal error that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

Solution

You are setting attribute in one servlet, and trying to getParameter in another servlet.

setAttribute value can not be obtained by getParameter but
setAttribute value can only be obtained by getAttribute

So use getAttribute from request as

request.getAttribute ("totalBill") ;

In your case request.getParameter("totalBill") Is NULL and Float.parseFloat(null) will through NullPointerException and hence you got HttpResponse status 500 i.e, Internl Server Error.
