The ROOT.xml file is in the Catalina/localhost folder Renaming the folder didn't work BTW.
I have the /corda folder located in the /webapps folder I'd like the /corda to be the default app when I don't have the ROOT.xml file, I can go to the browser and enter http://localhost/corda and everything works fine I'd like it to work so that when I enter http://localhost I get the corda as the default. (without having to use the /corda in the URL) I know there is a way to do this without renaming things to ROOT, that's what I'm looking for. How do I set up the ROOT.xml file so that it makes the /corda the default rather than /ROOT as the default?
