Re: Custom Homepage
Yoav is correct, but I believe that the following sordid hack will work in TC 4.x: 1) In your web.xml file create a servlet-mapping something like: MyWelcomeServlet /index.html 2) Stick a zero length file called 'index.html' at $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/myapp/. 3) Make certain that there is no file named 'index.jsp' at $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/myapp/ (or re-order your welcome-pages).

RE: Custom Homepage
Howdy, Didn't spend much time with the servlet specification, huh? ;) Right now you can't use a servlet as your default welcome file. You can use a JSP or a static HTML file. (Or a couple of other things which you probably don't want). The next version of the servlet spec allows for servlet welcome files, and tomcat 5 supports this feature. The welcome files are configured in web.xml for your webapp. Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics >-Original Message- >From: Me [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, July 21, 2003 6:23 PM >To: Tomcat Users List >Subject: Custom Homepage > >I installed tomcat yesterday and i am totally confused about its config >files. i am trying to change the default homepage so that tomcat calls a >servlet in the preconfigured servet directory instead of the index.jsp >page. >Is it possible > Thanks in advance > A tomcat newbie > > >- >To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This e-mail, including any attachments, is a confidential business communication, and may contain information that is confidential, proprietary and/or privileged.

I installed tomcat yesterday and i am totally confused about its config files. i am trying to change the default homepage so that tomcat calls a servlet in the preconfigured servet directory instead of the index.jsp page. Is it possible Thanks in advance A tomcat newbie - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
