1 Introduction

Tomcat is a Java servlet container from Apache

2 How do I bind my tomcat server to a specific IP address?

In conf/server.xml, add address="1.2.3.4" to all connector tags. For example[JG]

Use

    <Connector port="80" address="1.2.3.4" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
               connectionTimeout="20000" 
               redirectPort="8443" />

instead of

    <Connector port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
               connectionTimeout="20000" 
               redirectPort="8443" />

3 I changed my index.jsp, however, my changes didn't seem to take effect

Look for the following lines in webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml, look for the following, and comment it out

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>org.apache.jsp.index_jsp</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/index.jsp</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
