Thanks to all of your comments and help!! The problem is resolved. I was very fortunate that I was testing with FireFox otherwise I would never have come to know about the actual problem (That is Redirecting to port 8080). The Internet Explorer was not at all showing that the request is going to the incorrect port, wonder why??. Now, on clicking search button, data gets posted to the correct place and data gets fetched from the database correctlty. As this webapp uses the Salmon SOFIA framework, in order to display the data, it internally uses its own URLGenerator class: "URLGenerator" and gets the PORT from System.properties file! And this is where the port was specified as 8080. I changed that to the one in Server.xml and VOILA!!
