One solution is to put this file in the ROOT directory:
--- index.html ----
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
location.replace('/myrealroot/index.html');
</script>
</head>
</html>

Subject: [NEWBIE] TomCat 5.x webapps\ROOT
Hi,
I am using TomCat 5.0.16 and would like to set my root context to my web
app.
Currently it defaults to \webapps\ROOT which displays the TomCat
examples/docs/etc.
How do I make it so that when I enter my web server IP without a context
root,
it defaults to my webapp (without copying my webapp to ROOT).
I read in the help that I need to set the below, but I am not sure how to.
In \conf\server.xml:
<!-- Define properties for each web application. This is only
needed
if you want to set non-default properties, or have web
application
document roots in places other than the virtual host's appBase
directory. -->
<!-- Tomcat Root Context -->
<!--
<Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0">
-->
Thanks.
Regards,
Daniel
