Configuring Server.xml file in Tomcat

843836Jun 23 2005 — edited Jun 23 2005

Hello,

I'm new to java/jsp. I have installed Tomcat for running my jsp files. If I place my jsp files in "ROOT" folder of "webapps" it is running fine. But, I was told that it is not always good to place the files in ROOT folder and to keep the files in webapps. If I place my files in webapps, and trying to change the context in server.xml file to my folder.

Then I can startup the server. Can anyone please tell me what to do to run my javaserver without putting my jsp files in ROOT folder? What are the steps needed?

Thanks in advance,
newbie to java
