That happens because when you click on your web application directly from tomcat, it goes to the ROOT of your web application and unless you have a set a welcome page in your web.xml ( or enabled directory listing) you are bound to get that error.

So to actually display your html page in your browser you would have to type "http://localhost:8080/<webappfolder>/<htmlpage>"
