Struts URL mapping question

[liang sun]

I use struts to develop a web application.
Homepage's URL is http://www.aaaaa.com/web/aaa.do
But our client hope when they type www.aaaa.com, page that IE shows is same as page that is http://www.aaaaa.com/web/aaa.do
Please ask how to solve. Thank you reading and help!

liang,
You should try two things to get the desired result. First, setup a welcome-file in your web.xml to remove the aaa.do. Then, configure jk2 (a webserver-to-webappserver connecter) to change http://www.aaaaa.com/web/ to http://www.aaaaa.com/.

Hope this helps!

You may also configure a Filter to add the required parameters, when the request URL does not contain any query strings.

Shed's tip about configuring jk2 only works if you have an Apache HTTP server in front of your web container. Also, adding a welcome file into your application's web.xml or configuring a servlet filter doesn't help unless your application is mapped to the "default context" of your container.

Could you describe what kind of server setup you're using?
