admin/index.jsp is a placeholder page for the admin webapp, not shipped with tomcat. If you placed it there, the url would be http://localhost:8080/admin/index.jsp.

I commented out the servlet-mapping but I still get the tomcat page for
index.jsp.  With my installation of Tomcat there already was a folder
called admin with index.jsp in it.  I'm not sure if I was making that
clear in my last post.  I thought that was where the tomcat index.jsp
was coming from.  I notice that if I put my index.jsp in a subfolder of
the ROOT directory then I can access it.

Two issue here:

1. Place the index.jsp in webapps/ROOT instead of webapps/ROOT/admin

2. ROOT context that comes with tomcat has all it's jsp files
pre-compiled.  Your new index.jsp is being ignored in favor of the
pre-compiled version.  Remove the servlet mapping in
webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml, restart tomcat (or just the ROOT webapp if
you have the manager webapp up and running), and all should be as
expected.

what version of tomcat?
what have you got defined in the <Host ...>s in your server.xml?

I have placed an index.jsp file that I created in my servers webapps/ROOT folder. When I place the following address in my
browser:
http://localhost/index.jsp

I still come up with the tomcat homepage on my local host. I know that file is located in the ROOT/admin folder is there some way that my browser is overridding my request for my index.jsp file for the tomcat homepage index.jsp instead? I've tried opening other jsp's that I migrated to this folder and I get a 404 not found message when I do this.
