Konstantin, Thank you very much for replying so quickly.
Is there any way around that? I've tried changing the <url-pattern> from /* to /*.jsp but I get 'Invalid <url-pattern> /*.jsp in security constraint' in my catalina log file. I've tried looking for resources to explain the <url-pattern> usage, but have not found much that helps out. Thank you in advance!
