Issue with enabling html5 mode in angular js to remove # from URL

I searched a lot in stackoverflow and web regarding this and no where I got a straight answer to my question. Hence requesting for help. Here is my problem:

I enabled 'html5mode' in my angular js application to remove the '#' symbol from the URL. After enabling I am successfully able to remove the hash from URL but I am getting it like (running my application in tomcat)

 localhost:8080/resources/list/abc

I am expecting something like

 localhost:8080/my-app-context/resources/list/abc

I have added base tag in my index.html too like the following ways

  <base href="/" />
  <base href="my-context-path" />

but neither worked.

Moreover after enabling html5 mode, i lost relative lookup for files in the templateUrl

Here is my code

 resourcesModule.config(['$stateProvider', '$urlRouterProvider', '$locationProvider', function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider, $locationProvider) {

   $urlRouterProvider.when('/resources', '/resources/listView/kristin');
   $urlRouterProvider.when('', '/resources/list/abc');
   $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/resources/list/abc');

   $stateProvider.state('apptemplates', {
        url: '/apptemplates',
        templateUrl: 'templates/templates.html',
        controller: 'TemplatesNavigationController'
    })
    .state('home', {
        templateUrl: 'my-context-path/home/home.html',
        controller: 'ResourceManagerController'
    })
   .state('home.resources', {
       url: '/resources',
       templateUrl: 'my-context-path/resources/resources.html',
       controller: 'ResourcesController'
   })
   .state('home.resources.listview', {
       url: '/listView/{roleID}',
       templateUrl: 'resourcemanager-ui/resources/listview/listview.html',
       controller: 'ListViewController'
   });

   $locationProvider.html5Mode(true);

}]);

One more queston. Earlier when html5 mode wasn't enabled, it was mapped to

 $urlRouterProvider.when('', '/resources/listView/kristin');

but after enablng html5 mode it was always routing to 'Otherwise". Any specific reason.

Thanks in advance
