Tomcat continues to display default home page even after I've replaced it

Hi,

I installed Tomcat 5.5.23 stand-alone and then replaced the default 
index.jsp home page (webapps/ROOT/index.jsp) with a different a 
different jsp.  But, no matter what I do, I still get the default Tomcat 
home page and not the pager I replaced it with.  At first I thought it 
was my browser caching simply caching the original page.  I cleared 
cache and that made no difference, so I tried wget, a command line 
utility that knows nothing about caching. I still got the default Tomcat 
home page.  I tried using wget from a different machine -- same 
results.  I could see from doing a "ps -ef | grep java" that I wasn't 
running a second Tomcat process and just to make sure that I was 
actually talking to the server I thought I was talking to, I killed the 
Tomcat process and tried again.  This time I got a "Connection refused", 
meaning that no other server was answering the GET requests.  I 
restarted Tomcat and once again got the original default home page 
instead of the actual index.jsp that replaced it.

Can anyone tell me where this content is coming from?

Thanks,
Rob

Try reading the page. The explanation is right there in the middle.

To see your new page, remove the mapping.

I met the same matter with you ever.The reason is that Tomcat itself
have the cache too.

You can delete files under [TOMCAT]/work,and restart your server and try
again.


Wish you lucky!!

remove the corresponding servlet mapping

maybe you should remove the corresponding servlet mapping for /index.jsp, or
simply delete everything under ROOT folder, or you can try Tomcat 6.
