Also, please note <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file /> </welcome-file-list>
This, in the application web.xml, seems to tell Tomcat "there are no welcome files in this application, do not look for index.jsp etc" ... However <welcome-file-list /> is ignored and server picks up default values in ${Tomcat.home}/conf/web.xml Basically, <welcome-file-list /> should be enough to tell tomcat the same thing - "there are no welcome files" ----- Original Message ----- From: Net Dawg <net.d...@yahoo.com> To: "dev@tomcat.apache.org" <dev@tomcat.apache.org> Cc: Sent: Friday, April 13, 2012 9:08 AM Subject: Welcome file list in web.xml treats index.jsp different from other filenames If a file named index.jsp is declared as a welcome and it is not there in the system, tomcat does not allow failover to framework like Tapestry. However, if a file named Bienvenue.jsp is declared as welcome file, the failover is allowed.
