http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27191 ROOT/index.jsp contains wrong statement Summary: ROOT/index.jsp contains wrong statement Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.18 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, the welcome page of the ROOT app states that "It can be found on the local filesystem at: $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.jsp" This is not true. Don't ask how long it took me to find out, that despite the presence of a regular ROOT/index.jsp and despite the above statement the default page comes from either WEB-INF/classes or from WEB-INF/lib/catalina-root.jar. I'm pretty puzzled why one might try to obfuscate example code in such a fashion, but at least the text of the page should be changed. I can imagine that this is there to improve performace on the very first impression -- but at what price?! If this is the reason, then please consider also: I think it is nearly always one of the first steps of a new tomcat user to try to change this page and see what happens. It *was* my first step, when I started. I think this drives away many a new user from this great server software. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
