RE: File isn't found in ROOT directory
Dave et al, I'm not sure why my index.jsp file is now accessible but it is. I commented out the part of the web.xml file for the servlet-name and got an error. When I got rid of the comments my index file showed up in the browser on refresh as opposed to the tomcat version. All is well that ends well. I must have overlooked something in there like saving the web.xml file before I tried the address. I'm now having trouble getting my servlet recognized which I will post in a separate post.

RE: File isn't found in ROOT directory
I commented out the servlet-mapping but I still get the tomcat page for index.jsp. With my installation of Tomcat there already was a folder called admin with index.jsp in it. I'm not sure if I was making that clear in my last post. I thought that was where the tomcat index.jsp was coming from. I notice that if I put my index.jsp in a subfolder of the ROOT directory then I can access it.

Re: File isn't found in ROOT directory
Two issue here: 1. Place the index.jsp in webapps/ROOT instead of webapps/ROOT/admin 2. ROOT context that comes with tomcat has all it's jsp files pre-compiled. Your new index.jsp is being ignored in favor of the pre-compiled version. Remove the servlet mapping in webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml, restart tomcat (or just the ROOT webapp if you have the manager webapp up and running), and all should be as expected. --David Pid wrote: what version of tomcat? what have you got defined in the s in your server.xml?

File isn't found in ROOT directory
I have placed an index.jsp file that I created in my servers webapps/ROOT folder. When I place the following address in my browser: http://localhost/index.jsp I still come up with the tomcat homepage on my local host. I know that file is located in the ROOT/admin folder is there some way that my browser is overridding my request for my index.jsp file for the tomcat homepage index.jsp instead? I've tried opening other jsp's that I migrated to this folder and I get a 404 not found message when I do this. Brian
