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>

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
