Not sure, but it's always worked with Tomcat/JBossWeb. I guess Grizzly
doesn't support this?

As above?
According to 12.2 of the Servlet 3.0 specification (not likely to have
changed since prior versions)
In the Web application deployment descriptor, the following syntax is used
to define
mappings:
- A string beginning with a ‘/’ character and ending with a ‘/*’ suffix
is used for path mapping.
- A string beginning with a ‘*.’ prefix is used as an extension mapping.
- The empty string ("") is a special URL pattern that exactly maps to
the application's context root, i.e., requests of the form
http://host:port/<context-root>/.
In this case the path info is ’/’ and the servlet path and context path
is empty string (““).
- A string containing only the ’/’ character indicates the "default"
servlet of that application. In this case the servlet path is the request
URI minus the context path and the path info is null.
- All other strings are used for exact matches only.
So a * path and a path without a slash are likely only JBoss AS friendly.
