In the Tomcat docs: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/index.html Note that you have mixed up three different concepts in the above question: host, appBase, and a specific webapp. A <Host> (localhost) specifies a domain name that Tomcat should be serving. The appBase attribute (webapps) of the <Host> element specifies the default deployment directory for that <Host>'s webapps. ROOT is the name of the default webapp for a given <Host>. > the O'Reilly Tomcat book talks about using localhost where in 5.x I > used to use webapps directory. Read the Tomcat docs first; I haven't read the O'Reilly book, so I can't comment on its veracity, but I seriously doubt that it has confused such basic concepts. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
