A bit of user documentation said "[foo] is as simple as extracting

blasm.)
In OpenLaszlo world, what is the DocumentRoot, htdocs, or webroot
of my webserver?
Is webserver==LPS?
webserver == tomcat or whatever equivalent you are using. We can't
be more specific, because each server has a different convention for
'document root', but it is the place in the file system that
corresponds to the web address of your site. For example, in Apache,
you create a mapping by:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /www/domain
ServerName www.domain.tld
...
</VirtualHost>
So, when you fetch www.domain.tld/whatever.html, Apache returns the
contents of /www/domain/whatever.html. (Modulo any sort of
rewriting, mapping, etc.)
