How do you map a sub domain to a webapp on Tomcat 6 (including the root webapp)?

Question

subject says it all. What I want is to map each sub domain to a webapp like:

http://root.domain.com:8080 -> http://domain.com:8080/
http://manager.domain.         


        

Answer 1

Can you try nesting each web app as the root webapp within the <Host> in server.xml by giving path="". I havent tried this myself.

<Host name="bbstats.localhost" appBase="webapps">
    <Context path="" docBase="/bbstats/"/>
</Host>

<Host name="tomcatstuff.localhost" appBase="webapps">
    <Context path="" docBase="/tomcatstuff/"/>
</Host>
