I am a beginner in eclipse and trying out a simple web project starting with a hello world page. But when I run the project on tomcat sever, this url is fired and I get HTTP 404 error:-

http://localhost:8080/TestWeb/

My web.xml file contents are as follows:-

<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="3.0">

  • Can u try the following : add one more servlet-mapping tag section with /faces/* and also use faces/HelloWorld.xhtml in welcome-file-list tag. – Bacteria Apr 16 '15 at 09:29

    '/faces/*' etc should *not* be needed (nor used) in modern jsf apps anymore. And since there is no mapping in the web.xml to '/faces/* now, it can also not cause a problem. So rather ask/query for the jsf version etc... – Kukeltje Apr 16 '15 at 09:45
  • @Rin: Please stop posting nonsense. Better try to reproduce and solve the problem yourself so that you can learn by experience. – BalusC Apr 16 '15 at 10:16

you must check the location of HelloWord.xhtml . As you have mentioned in your web.xml ,if HelloWord.xhtml is directly under WebContent then its good otherwise you will see Error-404 .
