I have the same question, but I want to reproduce the action. Say I
have a servlet at pathtotomcat/WebApps/myServlet and I can access that
servlet with http://localhost:8080/myServlet?. What do I have to do so
that I can access http://localhost:8080/mySelvlet/login.html and not
have the server run?
