I think I ran into a similar problem at one point but didn't really  
investigate what was going on.

IIUC there's a default content servlet that serves requests for static  
content like this.  Again IIRC it is configured by default to look in  
the unpacked war file inside the geronimo repository, but you can  
include such a servlet in your app explicitly and configure it to look  
somewhere else.

So my first dumb question is... where is the static content?  After  
that I'd probably try debugging the default content servlet to see if  
it is getting called and what its trying to do.

hope this helps
