| Problems getting 'anything' to be served by Tomcat 5.5 [message #144116] |

I have used both Eclipse and Tomcat before (a little rusty with Tomcat),
but am new to the webtools project. I have installed Eclipse 3.1, Tomcat
5.5 and WTP 0.7.
Tomcat works fine on it's own, serving up the normal example servlets,
jsps, static html, etc.
When I create a 'Hello World' WTP application from scratch, I cannot get
Tomcat to serve up any content - static html, jsp or servlet. Everything
'looks' to be ok. Both of my test modules show up in my server view
under my Tomcat 5.5 server. The server says it is started and
synchronized - but is seems to be reduced to producing directory empty
listings or 404 responses.
I've been following the tutorial at
< http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/community/tutorials/BuildJ2E EWebApp/BuildJ2EEWebApp.html>
(not word for word, but the general spirit of the document) - is this
out of date now? Is there anything missing from this document that I
have not configured? Is it possible that I have changed a setting
somewhere that stops Tomcat running my dynamic web app?
Other posts in this newsgroup have had (I believe) different problems to
mine, so any further info would be appreciated.
Thanks.

OK, thanks for the tip.
After playing around a bit more, I've been able to get my second project
to serve up content. The first still does not though. I think this
probably has something to do with not setting a context root when I
created the project.
How do I change/set the context root after I have created a project?
