  <p>After compiling when I do a "Run on Server", it runs fine.</p>
  
  <p>When I go the link <code>http://localhost:8080/JavaEEWebContent/</code>, it works fine and displays me the homepage(in my case its <code>index.html</code>).</p>
  
  <p>The problem:

  <p>Any idea why it is not coming for me or what could go wrong?</p>
  
  <p>Also I am using <code>Tomcat 8.5.54</code>.</p>
  
  <p>This is how my web.xml looks like if that helps:</p>

          &lt;servlet-class&gt;com.servlet.addNumbers.AddNumbers&lt;/servlet-class&gt;
      &lt;/servlet&gt;
      &lt;servlet-mapping&gt;
          &lt;servlet-name&gt;addNumbers&lt;/servlet-name&gt;
          &lt;url-pattern&gt;/addNumbers&lt;/url-pattern&gt;
      &lt;/servlet-mapping&gt;
  
  
  &lt;/web-app&gt;
