I don't think meta-refresh is applicable here. Seems that when Tomcat gets the basic url, http://thissite.com, it looks for web.xml in webapps/root/web-inf. The content of this XML file is:
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"; version="2.4"> <display-name>Welcome to Tomcat</display-name> <description> Welcome to Tomcat </description> <!-- JSPC servlet mappings start --> <servlet> <servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/index.jsp</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <!-- JSPC servlet mappings end --> My hunch is I should be changing the content of this web.xml file to point to the webapp that I want to be the default...
