I changed my web.xml file like you said buy changing the servlet mapping to this
<servlet-name>webMathematica</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/index.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<Home-file-list>
<Home-file>
index.html
</Home-file>
it is index.html because the webapp does not have a .jsp file ... But now when I
go to http://localhost:8080 I get the following error
HTTP Status 404 - /
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
type Status report
message /
description The requested resource (/) is not available.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache Tomcat/5.0.25
Any Ideas? I feel like I'm getting close ... but my deadline is getting closer!
