How Can I doDefault Context Path

Hi, all

I need some help to set up an context path.
I'm using apache 2.0 ,JK2, tomcat 5.0.24 on Linux.

I made an application and packed into ABC.war.

Then I put the war file into $TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\ directory.
SO, I can access the top JSP with url  http://localhost:8080/ABC/top.jsp

This is fine. but, I want the context path to top.jsp as /top.jsp
,not /ABC/top.jsp
So, i did try several ways. but , i cant find the best way to do that.

What I did is to make path blank like following .

<Context path="" docBase="ABC.war" debug="5" reloadable="true" >
 ..... Logger setting
 ..... JNDI Datasource setting
<Context/>

  but , after deployment of war , tomcat makes 2 directorys /ROOT
and /ABC . Both dirs include
  same resources. customers can access to context paths of both
/top.jsp and /ABC/top.jsp
  and latter context path causes Datasource problems. i dont want to
let users access the 2nd path.


And <Context path="" docBase="ABC" debug="5" reloadable="true" > didn't
work at all.

(and Tomcat 5.0.24 on Windows doesn't allow "" path. Weird...)

  Any advice will be appreciated.

  Thanks.
