Re: changing webapp root

Awesome thanks, it works.

Incidentally, I tried removing the <set name="war>....</set> and it still works the same. It appears to just need the contextPath set....

Also, and this is getting picky, grails still says: 'Server running. Browse to http://localhost:8080/someProject'. Not a big deal, but maybe worthy of a bug report?

we did this yesterday

Add a web-jetty.xml containing the following to your web-app/WEB-INF folder

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Mort Bay Consulting//DTD Configure//EN" "http://jetty.mortbay.org/configure.dtd">
<Configure class="org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext">
<Set name="contextPath">/</Set>
<Set name="war"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="."/>/webapps/((YOUR_WAR_NAME without extension))</Set> << --- no brackets obviously //webapps/foo (its foo.war when packaged)
</Configure>

Hope that helps

Does anyone know how I can change the default webapp root when running grails?
I'd like to be able to configure it so i just hit http://localhost instead of http://localhost:8080/someProject.

I know when deploying to tomcat I could just create a ROOT.war. What about with jetty and grails?

Thanks!
