Thank you...... I will try IIS reverse proxy and update the status once I am successful.

I haven't done it, but looked into this in the past and found a few solutions. You can google "IIS Reverse Proxy". Some things to consider with a reverse proxy: 1. Your application cannot be sending back links with the hostname/port in it. 2. If your application does HTTP redirects, then you need to setup the reverse proxy to re-write those (not an issue, but something you need to configure). -Dave -----Original Message----- From: Kikkeri, Amith [mailto:amith.kikk...@aig.com] Sent: Monday, November 16, 2015 9:22 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Access application without giving port number and context root Thanks. Ngnix is not an approved software in my company. Hence trying to see if there is a work around. Can IIS be used as a reverse proxy? I see IIS as an approved one.

End User ----> Reverse Proxy (NGINX for example ) -------------------------------------> App 1 http://foo.bar/ -------------------------------------> http://app.server:7832/foo http://baz/bar/ -------------------------------------> http://app.server:7832/bar This is more complicated to setup but has the benefit of being able to move the tomcat instance around (a different port or server, for example) without the End User needed to change the URL they use. If you don't want to run and manage a new process there are some java based reverse proxies that I think you could run on the Tomcat server itself: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/ServletProxy. You won't be able to hide the port with these however. -Dave -----Original Message----- From: Kikkeri, Amith [mailto:amith.kikk...@aig.com] Sent: Monday, November 16, 2015 9:11 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Access application without giving port number and context root Hi, I don’t want to install my application as ROOT.war application. This will make it difficult if I want to deploy multiple applications in same tomcat instance. Please suggest.
