Restlet Error "The server has not found anything matching the request URI"

Question

I want to serve some static html pages along with my restlet services from the same app ( running in Tomcat )
Here is my web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4" 
            xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" 
            xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
            xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee 
                 http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> 
   <display-name>first steps servlet</display-name> 
   <!-- Application class name --> 
   <context-param> 
      <param-name>org.restlet.application</param-name> 
      <param-value> 
         firstSteps.FirstStepsApplication 
      </param-value> 
   </context-param> 
   <!-- Restlet adapter --> 
   <servlet> 
      <servlet-name>RestletServlet</servlet-name> 
      <servlet-class> 
         org.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet 
      </servlet-class> 
   </servlet> 
   <!-- Catch all requests --> 
   <servlet-mapping> 
      <servlet-name>RestletServlet</servlet-name> 
      <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> 
   </servlet-mapping> 
</web-app>
Here is my Application router class
public class FirstStepsApplication extends Application
     @Override
     public synchronized Restlet createInboundRoot()
          Router router = new Router(getContext());
          // Defines only one route
          router.attach("/hello", HelloWorldResource.class);
          router.attach("/login", LoginResource.class);
          router.attach("/", BasicResource.class);
          return router;
}I've gone back to the basic first steps example.
It works fine if the url pattern is <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
localhost/rest/login returns a string from my LoginResource, same too for /hello
However a static html page I have /Mypage.html does not get returned when I enter the URL /MyPage.html
However, if I then modify the url pattern to be
<url-pattern>/login</url-pattern>
and then enter the url /MyPage.html I will get the html page.
But ...... I get the error "The server has not found anything matching the request URI" when I enter the url /login which worked ok the first case.
What must I do in order for both Restlet & Static HTML resources to work together?
Thanks ... J

yes, basicResource is my own class. It's a catch all for restlet requests that don't match any of the other ones. It just returns String = "My catch all resource"
Because you highlighted it I decided to try and remove it from my Restlet Router. Presto, it now works, the login & hello requests are serviced by my Restlet resources and the MyPage.html requests are served the mypage.html file. This now brings another question. If from my servlet mapping in web.xml all urls are to be handled by restlet "/*", how then does a mypage.html request not get serviced by my restlet? Seems to be just passed through the restlet framework when there is no router to match it? what do you think?
