Not sure what you mean here. Do you want the clients to use http://<mysite>/public_html to get to your primary app, or do you want to store your default app somewhere in your local file system under the directory public_html? For the former, simply name your app public_html, either by placing it under webapps with that name (subdirectory or .war file), or by creating a public_html.xml file in conf/[engine]/[host] that has a <Context> element with its docBase attribute pointing to the location of your app. ([engine] and [host] are usually Catalina and localhost, respectively.) For the latter, create a ROOT.xml file in conf/[engine]/[host] containing a <Context> element with its docBase pointing to the /<someWhereInFileSystem>/public_html directory. Or am I completely misunderstanding the problem? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
