As a previous poster pointed out, there's a difference between redirect
(requiring a round trip to the client) and forward (a server-only
mechanism).  Which is it that you want to do?  (Your code says one
thing, your words another.)

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>SearchServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/searchmatch.jsp</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>SearchServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/searchmatch.jsp</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

The above are your published mappings, copied and pasted from your
original message; these appear identical to me - both are for the
searchmatch.jsp pattern.
