If you place your application as ROOT.war , directly under Tomcat's webapps folder then Tomcat should load it on the root context /
But if it's named anything else then it will be at the /<ProjectName>/ context. I have mine set-up like this on a clean install of Tomcat 5.5 (with no additional configuration) and the web application loads on the root context. If you place an index.jsp directly in the root folder of your project then, that takes care of hiding the directory listing and rendering the home page of your app. Also configure welcome-file in your project's web.xml to index.jsp -Rashmi ----- Original Message ---- From: John Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Tomcat Users List <users@tomcat.apache.org> Sent: Tuesday, March 13, 2007 4:12:48 PM Subject: Re: How does one configure Plain host domain url to run web app?
