I have the war file of my application. I need to deploy this at the root level. The current URL is http://localhost:8080/war_name/application_name
.
open tomact manager url :- http://localhost:8080/manager/html/
then in applications you see a application having path as "/" is deployed
simply Undeploy this.
Rename your application's war file as ROOT.war and just place at path :-
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 8.5\webapps
start your Tomcat No extra configuration needed.
Now we can see our application home page or configured url at http://localhost:8080
