Dear All,

Can somebody please tell me, how do we set friendly URLs to the applications running on our Tomcat server?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Ram.

Hi Ulf,

Sorry, that I should made it a bit more elaborate.

We have an application, deployed in a server....say for example it takes the URL "http://localhost:8080/myworld/utils/MyUtils.jsp.

I would like to access the application, just by typing "myutils".

Is there any way, we can achieve this?

Cheers,
Ram.

Using <servlet-mapping> in your web.xml you can define a servlet that listens to "myutils", which then forwards to the JSP.
