    <p>I'm using Tomcat 6 and using the Servers functionality in Eclipse to manage it. I have a project named foobar and I'd like to change the context path so that the URLs referenced are <a href="http://localhost:8080/app" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:8080/app</a> instead of <a href="http://localhost:8080/foobar" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:8080/foobar</a>. I've tried everything that I can think of:</p> <ul> <li>Updated the server.xml path value in the Context section </li> </ul> <p>From</p> <pre><code>&lt;Context docBase="foobar" path="/foobar" reloadable="true" source="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:foobar"/&gt;&lt;/Host&gt; </code></pre> <p>To</p> <pre><code>&lt;Context docBase="foobar" path="/app" reloadable="true" source="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:foobar"/&gt;&lt;/Host&gt; </code></pre> <ul> <li><p>I updated the file conf/Catalina/localhost/foobar.xml to set the path="/app" and docBase="foobar" with no luck. </p></li> <li><p>I tried to remove the Module in Eclipse and redeploy at least a dozen times.</p></li> <li><p>I went through the suggestions here: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2437465/java-how-to-change-context-root-of-a-dynamic-web-project-in-eclipse">How to change context root of a dynamic web project in Eclipse?</a></p></li> </ul> <p>I know that I can simply rename the project, but I don't want to.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/OIBkk.png" alt="Here are my Server settings within Eclipse."></p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>I also should mention that I have some db settings in the application context. I am unsure if this should be set to foobar.xml or app.xml..? Eclipse automatically creates an app.xml file in conf/Catalina/localhost, but it seems to be ignored after I make changes.</p>

    1. COI have the same issue, the web-context will always be the directory name of your eclipse project whatevery you do. I think It's a bug.

    2. COI think you're right, because I spent loads of time on this without being able to fix it. I wonder if it's an Eclipse bug or Tomcat bug.

    3. COWhile trying to extricate eclipse from our build process and reduce manual config, I noticed that it rewrites all kinds of tomcat stuff from the .location files in the .metadata folder.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
