redirect to http://localhost:8080/alfresco

[xeonyk]

I already install alfresco and default to access web client is http://localhost:8080/alfresco,
but when i type http://localhost:8080 it cause error HTTP Status 500

i want to ask how can i redirect to http://localhost:8080/alfresco when i type http://localhost:8080?

You can probably just create an index.jsp and drop it in Tomcat's ROOT webapp.  The Index.jsp can do something like response.sendRedirect(string) from the HttpServletResponse (which is an implicit variable addressed in a JSP simply as
"response")

I personally haven't tried this, so lemme know if it works and maybe post the JSP in code block if you get it working.

Good luck,
Tom

Actually, I got curious, so I did this myself. . .in Tomcat 6, there's no "ROOT" webapp directory by default, but you can still just create one:

1) cd $ALF_HOME/tomcat/webapps
2) mkdir ROOT
3) vi ROOT/index.jsp

<%
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost:8080/alfresco");
%>

That's it.

Dear friend,

You can search code redirect with HTML. Location for this code is: /path/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/index.html (e.x: http://www.ecm.ntis.vn >> view source for code)
