Thanks. Adding the favicon.ico in web.xml is a much easier and favourable way. I was also facing the issue and Justin’s suggestion worked. Thanks.

The other ways will work, but they strike me as a bit hackish. Just add an empty security constaint into your web.xml file for favicon.ico. Here is a sample<br /> <security-constraint><br /> <web-resource-collection><br /> <web-resource-name>Entire App</web-resource-name><br /> <url-pattern>/favicon.ico</url-pattern><br /> </web-resource-collection><br /> </security-constraint><br /> <br /> By leaving the <auth-constraint> tag out, anyone is allowed to access this file. You may say, now wait, this URL matches the "/*" URL above, BUT tomcat processes the constraints for a URL from most specific to least, so /favicon.ico overrides /*.

That's what most browsers look for by default. Have you tried putting favicon.ico into your web root directory? That’s what most browsers look for by default.
