Problem understanding application.xml

[mudassir syed]

Hi

I want to know whether we can have ''/'' as an entry for <Context-root> in application.xml file,as I want to specify the context path while I install the .ear file in the Websphere server(using RAD).If I don't keep <context-root> entry I am getting an error.

Here is the application.xml file :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application id="Application_ID" version="1.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/application_1_4.xsd">
    <display-name>proj_2_1_QA_001</display-name>
    <module id="WebModule_1249062768099">
    	<web>
    		<web-uri>proj_2_1_Dev_001.war</web-uri>
                                [b]<context-root>/</context-root>[/b]
     	</web>
    </module>
</application>
