If you change the context path as described below by Yoav, you must also
change the existing servlet mapping...
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>HelloWorldServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/mywebapp/HelloWorld</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I think that the real question here should be... Why are you trying to do
this? Can you not simply access the servlet via /mywebapp/HelloWorld?

Subject: RE: Context/mapping question
This desire requires being on the root context (the one with context
path "" as opposed to "mywebapp"). Therefore, you WILL need to put an
explicity context element in your server.xml, which includes:
<Context docBase="mywebapp.war" path="" ...>
Moreover, within your web.xml, you will need to add one more
servlet-mapping:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>HelloWorldServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/HelloWorld</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Personally, I don't like having more than one servlet-mapping per
servlet, but that's just my preference. The standard allows many
mappings and tomcat allows many mappings without a problem.
I hope this helps,
