You can deploy your application as the root web application. You can
only do that for one webapp, but maybe it works for you ...
To do that, you have to deploy to the special name "ROOT.war" in the ~/
webapps/ directory of your application server. This "ROOT" web
application will then get requests to
http://localhost/.
