Hi > No. You're mistaking the default configuration for something that's hard-coded. Out of the box, "/" is mapped to Tomcat's DefaultServlet, which handles static content. This is routine for other containers as well and is not a particular Tomcat trick.
No, I did understand this. However, I think the original poster wanted to archieve, what I had to do once: To KEEP the default servlet mapping for all my html, js and css files and additionally have a servlet that get's ONLY called for the domain root "/". This works as I described, with the trick of using welcome file and (at least for some older versions) an empty file. There is direct no way to map "/". In the sense of what I want to archieve, not in the sense of the specification, that "/" means default. Regards, Steffen
