Thanks Bosun. I changed the setting and it's working now. Also thanks you all for your kind responses.

Thanks you all. I'm using weblogic server. I did use the full path and restart the server after changing in web.xml. More ideas?

so try this:

Thanks Jessica. I tried it and still didn't work. Any other suggestions?

I added the following lines in web.xml and there is a 404.html in my root directory. It didn't work. Can any friend help me with it? Thanks in advance.
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>404.html</location>
</error-page>
