Re: Changing the 'ROOT' webapp (newbie question)
Definitely smart! Yoav, I think you're a smartass, but I mean that in the nicest and most complimentary way possible ;-) You're a constant source of help and relief to tomcat users on this list. I am always interested to read your posts and take a great interest in what you have to say! Thanks! - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Changing the 'ROOT' webapp (newbie question)
Hi, You need to define a Context element for your webapp whose path= (the empty string, not /, not null). And you need to remove or rename the ROOT webapp. The Context element's configuration reference page (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/context.html) contains more details.

RE: Changing the 'ROOT' webapp (newbie question)
I did this with my site, and had the empty string pointing to my /portal app. Everything worked okay until I put in container-managed security, and then when restricted pages were redirected to the login jsp, Tomcat seemed to lose the context completely, so none of my links worked (using request.getContext() or c:url .../ on the login page except the submit button. I stuck in a mini-app under the root to redirect to /portal as a work-around, but presumably this isn't expected behaviour. Digby PS.

Changing the 'ROOT' webapp (newbie question)
By default, when Tomcat gets a request for something like http://www.some_domain_name.com/ or http://www.some_domain_name.com it serves the file webapps/ROOT/index.jsp What is the preferred way of getting it return the index file of a different wep app?
