change the directory tomcat serves out of

Question

Hello all,

I have a VM running tomcat on a private network. I wanted some people to be able to access it from outside the network.

So, my private VMs IP from inside the network is 192.168.0.1:8080. I created a proxy: my.web.address.com/testPortal/ that points to 192.168.0.1:8080. However, every time you access the link, it redirects to my.web.address.com/ I think this is due to tomcat on the VM serving out of "/" so it tries to do things relative to "/" instead of "/testPortal/".

My question is, how can I make tomcat work and serv out of /testPortal/ instead of /?

Thanks!
