Making default page

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

Hi~

I want to make my default page to jforum

So to speak, if I connect my http://localhost:8081, then I want to make it to http://localhost:8081/jforum/forums/list.page

How can I do it??

I know that I must fix my web.xml

<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

but, which jsp or htm must be located at there?

My directory is like this.

Easiest thing to do is to just create an index.jsp page that redirect to the forum home page. It just needs to be a single line like:

<jsp:forward page="forums/list.page"/>

Thank you but.. you should know about this.

My directory is like this.


webapp -- ROOT -- index.jsp
-- jforum


As you know, tomcat's default index.jsp is under ROOT directory.

And when I made a new index_page.jsp which include "<jsp:forward page="forums/list.page"/>

in ROOT directory. It doesn't work.

It is because directory problem.

Where did you locate index.jsp???

In ROOT directory? or jforum directory?

I tried ../jforum/index.jsp but it doesn't work.

Please answer me

Thank you

Do a search on jsp:forward to find the documentation on this. This URL is relative to the JSP page or absolute from your webserver root if it starts with a /.

Alternatively, you can also just use the standard HTML Meta Refresh tag to do basically the same thing.
