How to deploy a WAR to ROOT web context (/)? [message #656903]

Mon, 28 February 2011 17:46

Eclipse User

Hi all,

I would like my web app (bundle as WAR file) to process all requests within the root web context (i.e. /). How do I configure this? Using "Web-ContextPath: /" in MANIFEST.MF?

Another question: is there a way to override the value specified in Web-ContextPath? Standalone Tomcat supports renaming the WAR file to ROOT.war in order to run it under the root context /.

Thanks for any help and pointers!

Wolfgang

Yes you can add Web-ContextPath: /
You can see in <Virgo-Home>/pickup/org.eclipse.virgo.apps.splash-3.0.0.M01.jar
This application has such context path

You can do this with plan
You can see an example in <Vigo-Home>/pickup/org.eclipse.virgo.apps.admin-3.0.0.M01.plan

<property name="header:Web-ContextPath" value="/admin" />
