Care to tell us the version, or should we consult a psychic reader?

Since security constraints usually define what is restricted, not what is 
public, that's not surprising.

> Relevant Copy from web.xml

Without the actual config statements, it's not that relevant...

> <security-constraint>
>     <display-name>Not secured Pages</display-name>
>     <web-resource-collection>
>         <web-resource-name>Welcome pages</web-resource-name>
>    <bunch of stuff not pertaining to the /seasonpass/
> directory></blah>
>    </web-resource-collection>
> </security-constraint>

I suppose we should guess the contents of your <security-constraint> as well...

Please post the actual web.xml file, along with your Tomcat version.
