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.

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 <Host ...>s in your server.xml? > > > >McRaven, Brian wrote: > > >>I have placed an index.jsp file that I created in my servers >>webapps/ROOT folder.
