WHy is service ticket null?

[t ray]

Hello,
I am having trouble getting the service ticket. I use the following code and ticket turns out to be null-

    ServiceTicketValidator sv = new ServiceTicketValidator();
    sv.setCasValidateUrl("https://localhost:8443/cas/serviceValidate");
    sv.setService("http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp2/dem/basic-stuff.jsp");
    System.out.println("TICKET="+request.getParameter("ticket"));
    sv.setServiceTicket(request.getParameter("ticket"));
    sv.validate();

As per my understanding, one needs to either manually validate a ticket OR set up the filters etc within web.xml. I have NOT modified web.xml and I expected the above to work. Things work fine when I modify the web.xml and let the filters redirect my requests to CAS.

Suggestions?

Thanks.
