Hi Sunitha,
In your web.xml of the application, add following inside of <web-app> directive,
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
And in each directory, put an index.html in it. The reason why you have a 404
is because you don't have that file in the directory.
And you can show anything or just redirect to any other pages by using that
index.html.
