How to set Weblogic Spring 2.5 application context path?

Question

The idea is to automatically have:

http://localhost:7001/myApp/

instead of:

http://localhost:7001/myApp

Thanks for anyone helping me.

EDIT : I think expressed myself wrong. Actually, I just want to 'force' browser to be redirected to (localhost:7001/myApp/) when it tries to get (localhost:7001/myApp). In other words, adding a slash so that css, js, links load properly.

Answer 1

I finally resolved this issue by manually adding the context path, this way:

<%@ page pageEncoding="windows-1252"%> 
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%> 
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions" prefix="fn"%> 
<%@ taglib prefix="form" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags/form"%>
<%
        String context = request.getContextPath();
    %>

... further in my jsp and wherever I need:

<a href="<%=context%>/manageUnavailabilities?requestType=create">

The result is that I have links like these:

http://localhost:7001/myApp/manageUnavailabilities?requestType=create

Instead of:

http://localhost:7001/myAppmanageUnavailabilities?requestType=create

Thanks for your help.

You will want to set the context-root value for your application. You'll want to edit your application.xml file in your .ear or your weblogic.xml file in your .war and add:

<weblogic-web-app>
    <context-root>myApp/somethingElse</context-root>
</weblogic-web-app>
