Virtual hosts

Hi,

Running TC5.5 as a stand-alone.
I've been reading about the HOST element, and i see
that it can make mysite.com and www.mysite.com go to
the same place. I apologize if I put it in a
simplistic way.

But can it make "www.mysite.com" be forwarded to
"www.mysite.com/myapp"?

Many thanks in advance!

Dola

Here's a simple guide to virtual hosts & aliases for the simplest environment
where Tomcat serves all traffic

Dola,

The simplest way is to have a welcome page such as index.html that redirects
the request. It would look like this:

<html>
<head>
<META http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://www.mysite.com/myapp">
<title>Redirect to Myapp</title>
</head>
<body/>
</html>
