Your assumption sounds correct. The entry should be contained in the
app, right? So you must create an app first and in this app an entry
object (an instance of `Entry`). If this happend, something like

  http://localhost:8080/myapp/myentry/entryindex

or 

  http://localhost:8080/myapp/myentry/@@entryindex

should display the view of the `Entry`-instance which is stored under
the name ``myentry`` in an application-instance named ``myapp``.

Looks okay to me. Did you create an entry before trying to access it?
Something like

  http://localhost:8080/myapp?name=myentry&text=blah

maybe?
