I think you can do this by using URL re-writting. But in that case, you lose the page which displayed when you hit localhost:8080 – Mohammad Ashfaq Jul 07 '15 at 12:08

Rename your war file to ROOT.war, to access it via yourhost.com rather than yourhost.com/nameOfWar.
Also, especially in a local environment, set the path variable to "/" in your server.xml. In eclipse, you will probably have a "Servers" project folder, where you can simply edit the server.xml of the specific tomcat server.
<Context docBase="YourApp" path="/" reloadable="true"
source="org.eclipse.jst.jee.server:YourApp" />

If it works, please mark it as solved and upvote. In a local environment, the url will be localhost:8080/ rather than localhost:8080/yourapp. – kevcodez Jul 07 '15 at 12:16

Did you even try what I wrote? Edit the path attribute in your server.xml. – kevcodez Jul 08 '15 at 12:39
