If by "root directory" you mean the default app for the <Host>, it must be named ROOT (case sensitive). If you want it under webapps3, the app should go in either the webapps3/ROOT subdirectory, or webapps3/ROOT.war. If your app is deployed outside of the appBase, then place a ROOT.xml file in conf/Catalina/hostname containing a <Context> element with the appropriate docBase attribute, and delete any ROOT directory under webapps3. If you really, really want to call your default app something other than ROOT, the simplest solution is to have a dummy app in ROOT that does nothing but redirect or forward to the desired default. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
