Answer 1

Today I was working with some other project and getting some errors in starting server (tomcat7), so first I cleaned the server and tried but no luck, then I deleted the server and made new one.

The project on which I was working was started working fine, but another project started giving me the same exception, I again deleted the server and tried but the same case, even I was unable to hit the tomcat landing page i.e. localhost:8888/. I really don't know how and why all that happened.

I tried several things like clean,add/remove then I started searching SO.

After some research I thought to give one more chance then I started server again this time both of my projects started working fine but still getting 404 on tomcat page

Answer 2

Try , right click tomcat --> Add / Remove , then in opened window , remove All projects in Configured side..

Then restart tomcat .
