Restart Tomcat and you're done.BR Call up "http://myhost.company.com/" and enjoy.

Addendum : If you are deploying your application as a war file..

The above instructions relate to the situation where you are "manually" deploying your application as a directory-and-files structure under the /webapps directory. If instead you are using the "war" method to deploy your application, the principle is about the same :BR

• delete the ROOT directoryBR
• name your war file "ROOT.war" (capitals mandatory)BR
• drop the ROOT.war file directly in the /webapps directory.BR Tomcat will automatically deploy it.
