Why Tomcat works fine when I put a .jsp but with a .html doesn't works?

I'm working with eclipse and I created a project, I put a test.html and test.jsp file in the root folder. In the URL of the Google Chrome I put this:

http://localhost:8080/project/test.html Error 404

http://localhost:8080/project/test.jsp Works (hello world!)

What is happening?

Based on your follow-up comments about the custom Tomcat install and the project error message, it sounds like you either don't have Eclipse properly configured to use your Tomcat server, or you don't have your project associated with the Tomcat server you've set up, and so perhaps your changes arent being deployed properly. See if that issue has a quick fix suggestion (right click it) or go through your project settings and verify your selected server runtime. Sorry on phone can't give specific instructions.

Double check if your test.html exists under this path: "Workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp1\wtpwebapps\project"

If exists, then it should be accessed normally, if not then you have to clean/build your application correctly or even try to restart eclipse.
