I am just a relatively novice Java developer. and certainly not as
famous or an expert like
you.
The correct way of doing things is to make re-name your web
application ROOT and deploy it as such. If you want to get rid of the
port number, you'll have to run Tomcat on port 80 instead of 8080 or
86 or whatever
Ok. but what if i have to do this for multiple applications on a single
tomcat. I guess tomcat can have only one default ROOT app. right?
Well, yes. It would be a bit confusing otherwise.
Also general practice is to run tomcat behind HTTP and not expose it
directly to internet.
It is an often-used configuration, but not a general practice.
Tomcat is not shy, and does not need to hide behind http. It can be its own front-end
webserver on the WWW.
People who put a httpd in front of it do it for a reason, otherwise it would be a waste of
cpu cycles.
Please forgive me if my assumptions are absurd
Thanks,
Shailesh.

After searching online(seeing mixed results), and searching through
the Wiki, I was hoping someone can confirm how I can do the
following:
I installed my app, and it has a default URL of:
http://something:port/webappname/morestuff.action
I was wondering if it was possible to setup Tomcat so I could
browse to here: http://something
and have it either point at my webapp or redirect to my webapp.
You can do this by running your tomcat behind HTTP. I had put
this question on SO please find below the link
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22040995/show-home-page-through-tomcat-without-changing-url/22051976#22051976
please let me know if this helps.
Chris,
can you please put some more light on what I have done is correct
way of doing it or not. I did it because i wanted to have landing
page of my website which had dynamic content to be loaded and i
didn't want to use redirection to any other url.
