Yes,
You can change the server.xml in your tomcat's conf directory as below...
<Context className="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext" crossContext="false"
reloadable="false" mapperClass="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextMapper"
useNaming="true" debug="0" swallowOutput="false" privileged="false"
displayName="Apache-AXIS" wrapperClass="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper"
docBase="D:\tomcat4\webapps\axis" cookies="true" path="/" cachingAllowed="true"
charsetMapperClass="org.apache.catalina.util.CharsetMapper">
</Context>
N.B : this is with tomcat ver.4.1.12.
older versions also support this.. dont know abt tomcat 5

Hi Laura,
If I read you correctly, what you need to do is persuade Tomcat that the Axis
application (WAR file) is installed as the "root" application (i.e. context="/"). You
probably need to tinker with server.xml or config.xml there. Maybe asking on the
Tomcat list would get you there quicker - I'm not an expert and I know it's changed
from one version to another, so I might be barking up the wrong tree.
Then in your (Axis) web.xml, make /axis/services the "welcome-file".
These two steps should make http://yourhost:yourport point to the /axis/services
resource.
Hope this helps
Keith

Subject: Forwarding from ip:port to ip:port/path
I've run into an irritating problem that I hope someone might be able to
offer me some pointers to.
I need to be able to create a service to accept connections from a
pre-existing client. Unfortunately, the client in question can only send
requests to an endpoint such as <ip>:<port>. Is there any way in the world
I can somehow convince/trick axis or tomcat or apache into forwarding such
requests to the appropriate /axis/services folder? I've spent several hours
trying different settings with apache, tomcat, and even the
axisSimpleServer, and have had no luck
Am I simply SOL? Should I start shopping around for another SOAP
implementation?
(and no, fixing the client is not an option ::sigh:: That would be too
easy.)
Laura
