Jetty default url not listing the project name

This is the first time I am using a Google App Engine jetty server. I have deployed a webapp on jetty which was initially running on tomcat.

In tomcat the url pattern is localhost:8080/ProjectName/index.jsp

But in jetty it cuts out the ProjectName in the browser url, due to this the jsp in not able to read the resources 

<link href="${pageContext.request.ContextPath}/css/bootstrap/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

I have remove to ${pageContext.request.ContextPath} in order to run on GAE Jetty. Is there a way to fix this? I need to use the jsps as is.

The value of request.ContextPath is the value of the contextPath that the webapp was deployed to.

If your webapp was deployed to a context path of / (root or default context path), then your ${pageContext.request.ContextPath} is "" per the spec.

See the javadoc for javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest#getContextPath()

Local GAE testing is usually on the / context path.

Also note that the typical deployment of your GAE webapp to {appname}.appspot.com would also be to the / context path.
