I would try removing the <<context>>.xml file, if there is one, and
replace the web.xml with a default one. Then restart Tomcat.
If you still get the 404 error when calling just JSP pages and there are
no errors in the catalina.out file then the problem is very likely in
the syntax of the URL being used. If this does work then the problem is
mostlly in the web.xml file. Possiblly in the <<context>>.xml but not
liklly.
The <<context>>.xml file can be found in
<<Tomcat Dir>>Tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\<<Name of deployment dir>>.xml

WOW that looks like a lot lot of unneeded complication.
I do not know if this is absolutely correct for every situation. But
it is my experience that if you are just doing JSP pages you do not
need the web.xml at all. It is only needed if you need to call a
servlet, define a resource like JNDI, or set a context value.
Is the 404 error from Tomcat or Apache? Do you get the 404 error when
you try to connect one of the servlets directly?
Brian,
The error is from Tomcat - if I go to port 8080, I also see it. My issue
is that I can't figure out how to turn debug messages on via log4j - I'm
sure I'd see something interesting there.
Thanks,
Simon
