I've successfully deployed to the root using Tomcat. I just created
ROOT.war and dropped it in the webapps directory. It seemed to work
without any configuration changes.

It depends. I had a similar frustrating experience on my own system
(Tomcat
on Debian) getting a war deployed in the root context.
Depending on the system's configuration, there's the ROOT.xml
descriptor, a
ROOT.war somewhere, possibly an override for the ROOT.xml in a /etc/
tomcat
directory.
Anywhere you look, be sure you distinguish between actual files and
links.
I assume you are trying to use the root context - sometimes the
easiest
answer is to replace the stock ROOT.war with your own application.
Have fun!

Subject: War file deploy problem on remote server
Hi,
OK, I got my Tapestry application to run on my local machine. Now I
want
to deploy on a web server. But whatever I do, it seems that I
cannot set
similar setting at that remote machine (the system manager over
there is
getting nuts as wel). I either get a white page, or, when I get the
Start page, it cannot find any other page, because it adds "myapp" to
the path of the url. As a result, I get no where.
As far as I get it, we have to do:
1. The mlwizz.war file. This needs to uploaded to the directory
indicated by the "appBase" from server.xml.
2. In the directory conf/Catalina/myname.com/ there we have to add
the
context path to the war file. In my local machine I see a Root.xml.
But
this does not seems to work for the remote machine. What is the
name of
this xml file? (Root or myapp) and what is the context path?
These are my server.xml settings:
<Host name="mlwizz.com"
appBase="/home/web82d/domains/myname.com/tomcat" unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="/manager" debug="0" privileged="true"
docBase="/home/web82d/tomcat/tomcat/webapps/manager">
</Context>
<Context path="/docs" debug="0" privileged="true"
docBase="/home/web82d/tomcat/tomcat/webapps/docs">
</Context>
</Host>
Thanks for any help
Marinus
