Hello Jason,
docroot is the directory where the HTTP server will fetch files if the
request is not handled by your application. For a Wt application, it
should contain at least the 'resources' folder that came in the src
directory of your Wt version. Some of Wt's widgets assume that they
can fetch static files (css, images, ...).
You must specify a docroot. If you really don't wat to serve any
files, point the docroot to an empty directory - but watch out for 404
(file not found) errors in your log!
Best regards,
Wim.
