Answer 1

Well servlet mapping calls your servlet. If you want to create a homepage then you should not give /* to the servlet because it will overlap.

When your url pattern is /whateveryour servlet will run under localhost:8080/myApp/whatever and and homepage will have Localhost:8080/myApp. However whn you define your url pattern as /* both your servlet and home page have tha same place. So remove your servlet mapping or give it a different place other than /*
