Grails war file deployment on Tomcat

Question

When I deploy Grails application (war file) on Tomcat 7 I start it with *server_ip:8080/war_file_name-0.1* How can I make this server_ip/war_file/

Answer 1

Just change the name of the war file. You can change the name generated by Grails either by specifying it on the command line:

grails war war_file.war

or by setting it in Config.groovy:

grails.war.destFile = "war_file.war"

If you want to get rid of the :8080 after the server IP, change the default port that Tomcat listens on to 80.
