*Keep your .war file outside of Tomcat's directory structure and create a file in conf/Catalina/[host] named ROOT.xml; this file must contain a <Context> element with a docBase attribute that gives the location of your .war file* I tried doing this. But its not working, and the page is still going to to default administrator page.
*Well, actually, it's not. Are you running a real version of Tomcat (one downloaded from tomcat.apache.org), or do have some 3rd-party repackaged junk? If the latter, I'd strongly recommend throwing it away and installing a real Tomcat.* I downloaded the application from tomcat.apache.org. and the installation type is 'full'. Its actually not going to 'manager/html' but the url is still 'http://localhost/'. what i want is if if give 'http://localhost/' it should go to ' http://localhost/MyApp/index.jsp' how can i do that. Is there any configuration i have to change? -- Pavan S.
