Servlet works on my Tomcat server, but not my Glassfish4 server

I have a Tomcat server and a Glassfish4 server. My Servlet launches perfectly fine with the Tomcat server BUT gives me an "HTTP Status 404" error for the Glassfish4 server. Here is all I have in the Tomcat ROOT directory:

WEB-INF

Here are the contents for the "web.xml" file...

<web-app>
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>HelloWorld</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>HelloWorld</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>HelloWorld</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/HelloWorld</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

This is the output I get using the Tomcat server ( when I run --> localhost:8080/HelloWorld ):

TOMCAT SERVER OUTPUT

For Glassfish4, I added the "WEB-INF" folder ( which is all I had in the Tomcat server ) into the "C:\glassfish4\glassfish\domains\domain1\docroot" folder ( ROOT equivalent of Tomcat server ) and used the same url ( localhost:8080/HelloWorld ). Which is when I got the 404 error.

GLASSFISH OUTPUT

I know the Glassfish4 server works because I put an ordinary index.html and it pulled it up just fine. I understand Glassfish4 is more than just a servlet container, maybe I am missing something?

Any answers will be appreciated. Please let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks.

For manuall deployment without IDE there are few examples in the official documentation:

Excerpt:

Use the asadmin deploy command. The general form for the command is:
as-install/bin/asadmin deploy war-name

To deploy the hello.war sample, the command is:
as-install/bin/asadmin deploy sample-dir/hello.war
