Deploy as root on web

[jactor]

I don't know where to display this so here it comes:

I am developing an application on the jboss-4.0.3RC1, and wants the users to access it from the root url Ex: www.my.app. But if I deploy an ear/war file in the servers deploy file, then it is given the name of the war-file Ex: www.my.app/war.

Is there anywhere I can configure this or do I have to deploy/copy the content to the folder named 'jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\ROOT.war' under the deploy folder to the server?

I think you can remove the ROOT.war out of the jbossweb-tomcat50.sar dir and create your own and have it deployed instead.

Put the following in your jboss-web.xml file:

<jboss-web>
 ...
 <context-root>/</context-root>
 ...
</jboss-web>

Thanx!

I found a simular solution to the problem (as the last statement)...

If one is deployed with an ear file, the application.xml can have the following statement:
<module>
<web>
...
&lt;context-root&gt;/</context-root&gt;
&lt;/web&gt;
&lt;/module&gt;
