Hello Douglas,

Well, you should be able to provide a servlet-mapping.

Try this....

<servlet>
        <servlet-name>MyIndexPage</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>com.mycompany.MyDefaultServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>MyIndexPage</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/index.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
        <welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
        <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
