To all,
I'm running Tomcat 5.5 on linux and I'm running into a problem with
URLs. I have a directory in my webapp called "help" with an index.html
in that directory. If I goto the URL http://foo.bar/help I get a 404
and the index.html is not loaded. However if I goto the URL
http://foo.bar/help/
the URLs look identical???
inside /WEB-INF/web.xml you *should* see a welcome-file-list
index.jsp
This should be the file displayed when the webapp is loaded
Is this not the case???
Thanks
Martin

Martin,
The difference between the two URLs is the trailing "/" character.
With Apache httpd I can specify the URL http://foo.bar/help/ and
http://foo.bar/help and I will get the index.html under the help
directory.
With Tomcat the first URL, with the trailing slash, will return the
index.html.
Good Afternoon Len
Thanks for the explanation
I believe you will find the information you're looking for here inside
web.xml
default
/
In other words / is actually mapped to servlet-name of 'default'
default
org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet
