Using the example as written generates a "java.lang.IllegalStateException: No forced path servlet for /WEB-INF/home.jsp" server side error after uploading to GAE.

Removing this part solves it.

<url-pattern>/WEB-INF/home.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

The error seems to be the same as in this stackoverflow qustion: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19623533/gae-no-forced-path-servlet-for-xxx-jsp
