Using tomcat, how do I get a request for http://www.mydomain.example to redirect to http://www.mydomain.example/somethingelse/index.jsp? I haven't even managed to get an index.html to display from http://mydomain.example.

What i did:
I added the following line inside of ROOT/index.jsp
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=/somethingelse/index.jsp"/>
In Tomcat 8 you can also use the rewrite-valve
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /somethingelse/index.jsp
To setup the rewrite-valve look here:
