How to url rewrite with Google app engine -- HTML5 mode not working

I am using Angularjs, Java for my application. Initially I am using tomcat to run my application. when I run my project it will open the URL

http://localhost:8080/projectname

so I configured my base tag and html5 mode as

$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
$locationProvider.hashPrefix('');
<base href="/projectname/">

with welcome file configured to main.html in web.xml and I added the code 

<welcome-file-list>  
    <welcome-file>main.html</welcome-file>  
</welcome-file-list>

<error-page>
    <error-code>404</error-code>
    <location>/</location>
</error-page>

to make ui-router work with html5 mode(mentioned in ui-router issue page).

Then I change my project to google app engine standard java project and when I run my project it open with url

http://localhost:8080

so I changed my base tag to 

<base href="/">

with this there no problem in main.html but my routing are not working. When I use $state.go its working. But on refreshing or manually entering the url i'm getting 404 error. My console error is

WARNING: No file found for: /url

I referred many blogs but still confused to configure

I have configured spring in web.xml file

<servlet>
        <servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

It seems that it is mapping all the url request to spring, is there any way to solve this?

Problem is with refresh the page, if you will open the base and click on any link it will work, you need to write the code for re-write URL

For IIS running application we need to add:

<system.webServer>
    <rewrite>
     <rules> 
      <rule name="Main Rule" stopProcessing="true">
        <match url=".*" />
        <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
          <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />                                 
          <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
        </conditions>
        <action type="Rewrite" url="/" />
      </rule>
    </rules>
    </rewrite>
</system.webServer>

See detail for IIS configuration

Sorry, I never worked with tomcat
