Apache Geronimo

As you may have guessed by now, this is the default home page for Geronimo. If you're seeing this page, and you don't think you should be, then either you're a user who has arrived at new installation of Geronimo, or you're an administrator who hasn't got his/her setup quite right. If you need help setting up or administering Geronimo, see the Geronimo Documentation.

If you'd like to get started configuring Geronimo and the applications and services available in Geronimo, you might want to start with the Geronimo Admin Console (if you have not yet configured this the admin username is "system" with password "manager").

Would you like your application to appear at this URL?
To set the context root for a web application, you can write a Geronimo deployment plan that uses the context-root element to specify the URL prefix used to reach that application. If you specify a context root of "/" then the application will appear at this URL. However, you'll need to stop this small Welcome application first!

Your web deployment plan should look like this, and you can either pack it into the WAR at WEB-INF/geronimo-web.xml or provide it as a separate argument to the deploy tool.

<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web-1.1">
    <environment>
        <moduleId>
            <artifactId>MyApplication</artifactId>
        </moduleId>
    </environment>
    <context-root>/</context-root>
</web-app>

Then you can stop this application and deploy yours from the Admin Console or from the command line with a sequence of commands like this:

java -jar bin/deployer.jar stop welcome-tomcat
java -jar bin/deployer.jar deploy MyWebApp.war
