Hi
I found an solution to force tomcat 4.1.29 to use servlets as welcome files.
My applications web.xml:
servlet
servlet-nameRoot/servlet-name
servlet-classcom.osiris4.servlets.Root/servlet-class
/servlet
servlet-mapping
servlet-nameRoot/servlet-name
Hello.
I'm using tomcat 4.1.29 on debian and I have the following problem:
I need to get / handled by my Servlet myPackage.Root, but I do not want
to change the mapping of ordinary files.
Just as a welcome file would, but welcome-file does not apply to servlets,
right?
My solutions so far is to
edit the $CATALINA_HOME/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml if you want the root
application to show an custom welcome-file
and put
welcome-file-list
welcome-filemyFile.jsp/welcome-file
/welcome-file-list
to the web-app tag.
This works on my tomcat 5.0

That feature has been added in version 5x.
Prior to that you have to map to a static file or a JSP.
