Its been few days i've been searching for a solution. My question is..I have to deploy a project in tomcat and make it as a default webapp. What I did is copied my war file and placed it in the tomcat/webapps folder. Started tomcat and changed the port to default. Now I can access my application at http://localhost/myapp .What i want is to see my ap开发者_开发技巧plication at http://localhost. How can I do this?
I was able to do it by adding "Context" element with path="" attribute under Host in server.xml file.
<Context path="" docBase="/usr/local/tomcat/mywebapps/myapplication">
<WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
</Context>
Note: I am using Tomcat 7. Also I had to move my webapp to different location than default webapps folder. I also deleted default webapps provided by tomcat. But this solution works even without deleting them.
Here are contents of my server.xml for reference. Hope this helps.

Delete the Tomcat/webapps/ROOT
folder (if any), rename your WAR file to ROOT.war
and restart.
you could rename your webapp to ROOT (the default app for tomcat), or you can use a web server that can handle domain names and redirects (like apache httpserver), and configure your site there.
The first approach is not very elegant, but quick and efficient though.
create index.html at webapps/ROOT with below.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content=0;URL="http://localhost/myapp">
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
