Just name your .war file ROOT.war (caps required) under the webapps directory, and remove the existing webapps/ROOT directory. If you don't want to keep your .war file there, create a file named conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml, put a <Context> tag in there with a docBase attribute giving the path of the .war file. (The preceding assumes you're using a 5.5.x version of Tomcat.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
