Tomcat is generating 404 if I make a GET on [1] but succeeding on [2]. No mapper attributes are set on the context. I think I am missing something fundamental here but I don't know what. Servlet is mapped as /login in the deployment descriptor. Is there any reference where I can read up on this stuff? [1] http://hostname/myapp/login/?a=b&c=d [2] http://hostname/myapp/login?a=b&c=d
