RES: how to get rid of the path after the URL
Let me see if I understood: 'jiveforums' is the name of the folder where ur application is inside webapps folder, right? Tomcat is a webapplication designed to run LOTS of applications. Each one must be inside of a folder inside webapps. So far you did it correct because you created your application inside of its own folder inside webapps folder. In order to do what you want you would have to drag and drop all the files inside 'jiveforums' to the folder on top of it, wich is 'webapps' ( which is NOT recommended). However if you are just playing with tomcat, you can put all your files directly on 'webapps' folder and make your index.jsp the main one by deleting the index.jsp (or index.whatever) that comes with tomcat. This is ok for testing but not for deploying real application. kisses sio -Mensagem original- De: Pavel Pragin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: sexta-feira, 28 de dezembro de 2007 16:35 Para: users@tomcat.apache.org Assunto: how to get rid of the path after the URL Hello, I am running a Jive application using Tomcat.

Pavel, the default.jsp is either a index.html or index.jsp file. sio -Mensagem original- De: Pavel Pragin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: sexta-feira, 28 de dezembro de 2007 17:08 Para: Tomcat Users List Assunto: RE: how to get rid of the path after the URL Hello, I wasn't able to find default.jsp anywhere under /tomcat/webapps do I just need to create one there with the redirect?

Can you please give me an example of how I can do these two: 1. Make jiveforums the root. Copy all the stuff from your jiveforums folder to the root folder under webapps. 2. Redirect in the root webapp to point it to jiveforums replace the default.jsp file in root with one that has a redirect command in it (do a google search for that). Thank You .

That's right Pavel. Mark is correct. It's been a while that I am being forced to develop in this crap php language that I forgot that tomcat main application is not under webapps. It's under a ROOT folder. So rename ROOT to ROOTSomething create a ROOT folder. Place your application on it. Let me know if it worked. sio -Mensagem original- De: Pavel Pragin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: sexta-feira, 28 de dezembro de 2007 17:17 Para: Tomcat Users List Assunto: RE: RES: how to get rid of the path after the URL Hello, Do you meet ROOT literaly? thanks -Original Message- From: Mark Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tomcat Users List users@tomcat.apache.org Sent: 12/28/07 11:09 AM Subject: Re: RES: how to get rid of the path after the URL [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In order to do what you want you would have to drag and drop all the files inside 'jiveforums' to the folder on top of it, wich is 'webapps' ( which is NOT recommended).
