I know this thread is a little old, but I really agree getting web2py going
on a servlet container would be awesome.
I followed Andrew's excellent example from the previous post, BUT i worked
around the root url redirect issue by simply renaming the web2py folder to
'ROOT' (which, by convention, Tomcat will then serve from '/')
Like this:
<Tomcat_HOME>
|__webapps
|__ROOT
|
|__WEB-INF
Anyway, I think I got closer than Andrew's attempt because (yay?) I got a
real web2py ticket error. The contents of the web2pyticket was:

Looks like there is something wrong with the cookie setting? Any other
ideas out there?
Thanks for any tips.
Once again -- it feels like we are getting closer (albeit slowly) to having
a working modjy/Tomcat deploy-ready web2py.war -- that would be sooo
awesome!
