Context root for Web modules settings

To specify the context root for Web modules during or after installation of an application onto a WAS deployment target.

To view this admin console panel, click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise apps > application_name > Context root for Web modules. This panel is the same as the Context root for Web modules panel on the application installation and update wizards.

Web module

Name of a Web module in the application that you are installing or that we are viewing after installation.

URI

Location of the module relative to the root of the application EAR file.

Context root

Context root of the Web app (WAR).

A context root for each Web module is defined in the application deployment descriptor during application assembly. Use this field to assign a different context root to a Web module. The context root is combined with the defined servlet mapping (from the WAR file) to compose the full URL that users type to access the servlet. For example, if the context root is /gettingstarted and the servlet mapping is MySession, then the URL is http://host:port/gettingstarted/MySession.
