Tomcat: Redirect default home page to another URL

28
Mar/091

To create a redirect from default page in Tomcat edit CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.html:

nano /CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.html

Where CATALINA_HOME is your tomcat directory. Delete the content and replace with the following:

<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=<url>">
</head>

<body>
</body>

</html>

and replace <url> with new destination.

Bad Idea. Better put a liddle index.jsp to the root like this:
