I tried your settings and they worked for me. Did you refresh the
"tomcat" folder in your workspace. You may not see changes until you
do. Setting the Deploy directory to the server's "webapps" directory is
not recommended. If a project has a Context Root set differently from
the Module (i.e. Project) name, then you will get two copies of the
webapp served. For info about the WTP Tomcat support see the Tomcat
FAQ[1].
Note that with the Tomcat support, there is no advantage to directing
the Java build output into "webcontent"/WEB-INF/classes and has the
disadvantage of making the classes appear as source in the "webcontent"
portion of your project. You can leave the default output directory
pointing to "build/classes" and publishing will put the classes in the
right location when creating the copy of the webapp that actually gets
served.
Cheers,
Larry
