URL issue while deploying war file in Tomcat

Question

When I deploy my app in dev environment it works fine. When I try to deploy it on production environment, Tomcat gives additional path parameter which cause problems in my app.

Example: localhost:port/home.html -> localhost:port/AppName/home.html

Same goes to static resources eg. My Image is located at adress: localhost:port/static/index.jpg and on production env I need to put localhost:port/AppName/static/index.jpg

Is there any Spring configuration that helps to aovid that? Do you know any solutions for this problem?

Simple solution without changing your server configuration.delete ROOT.war from your server and paste your war here rename it as ROOT.war.

Second solution is find your server.xml. add context here

 <Context path="/" docBase="your application name here" reloadable="true" />

don't forget path="/". And change if existing source has the path "/" to something else so it will not conflict.

It seems other people have already ask themselves the same question. These answers may help you (You just need to name you app as root.war):
