tomcat中的默认Web应用程序

Question

Its been few days i've been searching for a solution. My question is..I have to deploy a project in tomcat and make it as a default webapp. What I did is copied my war file and placed it in the tomcat/webapps folder. Started tomcat and changed the port to default. Now I can access my application at http://localhost/myapp .What i want is to see my application at http://localhost . How can I do this?

Answer 1

I was able to do it by adding "Context" element with path="" attribute under Host in server.xml file.

            <Context path="" docBase="/usr/local/tomcat/mywebapps/myapplication">
                <WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
            </Context>

Note: I am using Tomcat 7. Also I had to move my webapp to different location than default webapps folder. I also deleted default webapps provided by tomcat. But this solution works even without deleting them.

Here are contents of my server.xml for reference. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

删除Tomcat/webapps/ROOT文件夹（如果有），将WAR文件重命名为ROOT.war并重新启动。

Answer 3

you could rename your webapp to ROOT (the default app for tomcat), or you can use a web server that can handle domain names and redirects (like apache httpserver), and configure your site there.

The first approach is not very elegant, but quick and efficient though.

Answer 4

create index.html at webapps/ROOT with below.

<html>

<head>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content=0;URL="http://localhost/myapp">
</head>

<body>
</body>

</html>
