I'm getting simular issue. Tomcat is working and see its welcome page in Firefox. When I run a imple jsp in Eclipse, it is giving 404. What do I have to do?

When you start Tomcat manually, it uses YOUR-TOMCAT-HOME/webapps as default webapp directory. This directory contains "ROOT" webapp (visible on context "/"), and that is the welcome page you see. On the other side, when you start Tomcat inside Eclipse, it uses some other webapp folder like YOUR-ECLIPSE-WORKSPACE/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tm p0/wtpwebapps, which doesn't contains ROOT webapp (or, sometimes contains blank ROOT webapp). In that case on context "/" (http://localhost:8080/), you will get either HTTP error 404 or blank page.
