Oops. That was really dumb of me. The welcome file list was commented out. I have really got to stop using VI to edit files...

I set up 5.0.14 w/ a welcome file that is a mapped servlet, and the mapped resource is not returned as expected. I think this is a bug: <servlet> <servlet-name>ViewCal</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.mhsoftware.cdaily.servlet.ViewCal</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>ViewCal</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/ViewCal.html</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>ViewCal.html</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> >From the specification: SRV 9.10 If a web container receives a valid partial request, the web container must examine the welcome file list defined in the deployment descriptor. The welcome file list is an ordered list of partial URLs with no trailing or leading /. The web server must append each welcome file in the order specified in the deployment descriptor to the partial request and check whether a resource in the WAR is mapped to that request URI.
