I am trying to deploy an app to the root of the domain so instead of domain.com/war_app/ i would be just domain.com/ I tried to do this with your basic config file but i got a 404 you can see below.

Error 404 – Not Found.
No context on this server matched or handled this request.
Can you help me?

Thank you for the article. I have installed the jetty-distribution-7.2.0.v20101020 and running on window7. I have created maven based web application mavenproject1.war and place it in wepapps directory it works fine. It failed to work for mavenprojext2 if add another war file eg. Mavenproject2.war. I have create two xml files(mavenproject1.xml, mavenproject2.xml) in context directory. These two files are based on text.xml which provide by the distribution. The part of the xml which has modified for mavenproject1.xml: / /webapps/mavenproject1.war The web.xml file for mavenproject1: < !DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd" > HelloServlet com.mavenproject1.HelloServlet HelloServlet /HelloServlet I have changed mavenproject1.xml contextPath to: /mavenproject1 and it not working for mavenproject1. If you can help me to make working for both war files will much appreciated.

Hi!
Thanks a lot for this clear information. However, i am wondering, if i execute a .war on my Jetty server, does this means that i am not going to be able to retreive my ApplicationContext into my app ? Because Jetty is creating it for me.
Is the only possibility then to embed Jetty and create manually in Java the applicationContext in order to be able to retrieve beans from it ?
Thanks for you help!

if we follow the above mentioned procedure the test.war file will be deployed in /tmp folder. Is there any way to save the deployed file onto a specific folder

Do you know how to hot-redeploy a servlet?

This is very useful information. But if I have to access images present in the application server and if the images are kept out side jetty directory then show can I access them using relative url?
