Re: Change context for welcome screen to /welcome

[problems mail <pr...@gmail.com>]

Hello Everyone,

Happy New Year :) - 2007. Hope we all have a more exciting Geronimo Year.

I wanted to know if any one has any idea for changing the root "/" context
for the welcome page to "/welcome" context.

The only thing I have learned is the welcome was installed as a plugin,
which would mean the configs are precompiled.

Please advice.
