Move the ROOT folder out of the webapps folder.
After step 3 would step 1 still work?

Subject: set default web application
Hi, I just downloaded Tomcat5.5 and Struts1.2.4. I would like to make struts-mailreader app to be the default application in Tomcat. However I could not make it.
What I did (I didn't touch any configuration yet): 1. copy struts-mailreader.war and put in webapps directory. it got deployed and I can go to http://localhost:8080/struts-mailreader 2. I add context.xml under webapps/struts-mailreader/META-INFO with the following line: <Context path="" docbase="${catalina.home}/webapps/struts-mailreader"></Context>. When I go to http://localhost:8080, it still points to welcome one. 3. I rename ROOT under webapps to be ROOT1, now http://localhost:8080 becomes blank screen 4, I add struts-mailreader.xml under conf\Catalina\localhost with the same line as in context.xml, it still a blank screen when I request http://localhost:8080.
set the default web app should be very commom task, but it's so difficult for me. Please help. Thanks.
