You need to deploy the war file inside tomcat so you need to make tomcat aware of its location. Also including the war file in the uri makes no sense it can not work like that. Did you do any configuration on the tomcat side? Ajp connector etc. I would suggest you check the tomcat docs to gain basic idea how tomcat works.
