Renaming the WAR to ROOT.war is the simplest but if you really don't want to do that then you have the following options: 1. Place your WAR outside of CATALINA_BASE/webapps. It must be outside to prevent double deployment. Place context file named ROOT.xml in CATALINA_BASE/conf/<engine name>/<host name> that has a docBase element that points to your WAR. 2. Leave your WAR in CATALINA_BASE/webapps. Turn off autoDeploy *and* deployOnStartup in your Host element in server.xml. Explicitly define *all* Contexts in server.xml, specifying both path and docBase. You must define your Contexts in server.xml as this option disables all the auto-deploy mechanisms.
