How are you are triggering your login?

Usually that is
1. GET some protected resource
2. Tomcat returns the login form instead of the resource
3. User fills the form and POSTs it to j_security_check
4. The resource requested in (1) is displayed.

I do not remember whether the resource is displayed as response for
(3) or whether a redirect to the original URL is being sent to the
browser. It does not matter.

The essence is that in (4) you are seeing what you were requesting in
(1). So, if you requested your Login.jsp, you will see your Login.jsp
after successfully typing in the password.

BTW, if you want to run Tomcat with a debugger,
