I have given my welcome file in web.xml
But when running the application, it is showing 404 error on http://172.16.2.16:8080/sampletest/
It is a spring application.
web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd"

<display-name>sampletest</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

</web-app>
I am using eclipse luna, java 8, tomcat 8 and maven framework.
index.html file is directly under webapp folder and web.xml is under webapp/WEB-INF folder.
If I use index.jsp instead of index.html, it is working. Then welcome page will load using http://172.16.2.16:8080/sampletest/
The issue is only with welcome file. Otherwise spring configuration is working.
http://localhost:8080/sampletest/test/ will load the data from database.
Error log in console
