Rename your app ROOT (case is important here) and it will become the
default webapp.

Hi
I've been trying to set my application as default application using tomcat6
but none of the approaches I tried worked.
First, I created a file <app-name>.xml in /tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost
folder but this did not make my application default. It worked on tomcat5
but not on tomcat6. Following are the entries of my myapp.xml file:
<Context path="" debug="0" privileged="true" docbase="/myapp" />
I want to access my application as: http://localhost:8080/ instead of
http://localhost:8080/myapp
Second, I tried creating context.xml in /webapps/myapp/META-INF folder with
same contents as given above but that didn't work.
It is written in tomcat docs that the <Context> tag should not be used in
server.xml, but adding the tag to server.xml seemed the only solution. Also,
when I added <Context> tag to server.xml it worked but the context seemed to
be loaded twice by tomcat.
Is there any alternative to adding <context> tag to server.xml file? Why is
it not advisable to add the <context> tag in server.xml?
Please provide a workaround for this. It is urgent.
Thanks
