For a clean Tomcat 6 install, you can just edit index.html and the changes will be reflected instantly. I noticed there is index.jsp and index.html. The jsp probably needs to be removed from the build.

The default welcome file list is index.html. index.htm, index.jsp. In that order. Is this a clean install?

Tried that but still getting the error. I only left the default index.html file there and it still gives me the 404 Error. It appears that it only wants to use the index.jsp file? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Using-own-index.html-in-%24CATALINA_HOME-webapps-ROOT-directory-tf4359312.html#a12424931 Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You might need to reload the ROOT web application although I am fairly sure the default configuration will detect the change and reload the webapp for you. Note: Tomcat 6 treats any directory in webapps as a web application.
