Tomcat Re-direct
Hi all,
I have an IDM (Identity Manager) instance running on an Apache Tomcat Server.
My Tomact version is : 6.0.18
The http address which activates my IDM application is in the format :
https://idm.my.org/idm
The thing is : if the address is accidentally written as follows --- https://idm.my.org ---- then the Apache Tomcat Main Page is displayed.
Normally, this means nothing, and would not bother me. Except that, there might be some security concerns involved in directing using to the Server Main Menu.
My question is : how can I configure the Tomcat to automatically RE-DIRECT to the appropriate webpage ?
In other words : if someone enters "https://idm.my.org", they will be auto-directed to "https://idm.my.org/idm"
Thanks
Richard da Silva

The current release is 6.0.29. Time to think about an upgrade.

You've left the default apps installed.

I don't know what you mean by the last part of that statement.

You can either rename the idm.war (or directory 'idm') to ROOT.war (or
'ROOT') and make it the default application, operating on:
https://idm.my.org/
or, you can add a new ROOT application which contains a JSP or
index.html which performs a simple redirect.
The former is easier.

Hi Rob,
thanks for your reply.
I already have a file ---- index.html ---- in my ROOTS webapps folder.
Should I modify this file, by adding that code you gave me?
Or should I create another file named "index.html", which would contain that code you gave me?
The index-html file I have currently, contains the following code at the beginning :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Apache Tomcat</title>
<style type="text/css">
/*<![CDATA[*/
body {
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Arial, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
margin: 10px 0px;
}
etc, etc, etc, etc (The rest of the file contains merely code relating to fonts, and style, and color, etc)
Should I replace this code with the one you gave me? Or insert it somewhere there?
Thanks
Richard da Silva

It doesn't need to be a .jsp file, just place a static index.html file into the root webapp with the following content:-
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">
<html>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<script>window.location.replace("/idm");</script>
</head>
<body>Please Wait...</body>
</html>
No configuration required.

Thanks for your reply
Where is that "wt.jsp" file?
Also, my web-xml file looks like this :
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
version="2.5">
<display-name>Welcome to Tomcat</display-name>
<description>
Welcome to Tomcat
</description>
</web-app>
Where exactly should I insert the code you gave me?
