Change Tomcat Address on my localhost - url

Question

On my Tomcat, I have an HTML page.
I need to type the following address to make it run:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/BiddingSystem/BiddingSystem.html
but I want it to be accessed using this address: www.moribiz.com
Is this possible just by changing some setting on Tomcat?

Answer 1

I have Eclipse EE and Tomcat7, and I need to run my servlets not at localhost:8080, but on a pretty domain :)
I have made it this way:
In file %windows%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts add:
127.0.0.10 tomcat
In file %workspace%\Servers\Tomcat 7 at localhost-config\Server.xml
<Connector port="80" address="127.0.0.10" connectionTimeout="20000"
protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443" URIEncoding="UTF-8" />
<Engine defaultHost="tomcat" name="Catalina">
<Host name="tomcat" appBase="webapps" autoDeploy="true" unpackWARs="true">
...
</Host>
</Engine>
Now my Apache Tomcat works fine (I hope) at http://tomcat/ and at same time my Apache2+PHP works at http://localhost/.

You can configure the host properties in Tomcat's server.xml, and can make an alias to the default localhost host:
<Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Alias>www.moribiz</Alias>
</Host>
For more information, see Tomcat's configuration manual.

Answer 3

Have a look at item 4 of O'Reilly's Tomcat tips:
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN" debug="0">
<Service name="Tomcat-Standalone">
<Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector"
port="8080" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"/>
<Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector"
port="8443" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
acceptCount="10" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"/>
<Factory className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteServerSocketFactory"
clientAuth="false" protocol="TLS" />
</Connector>
<Engine name="Standalone" defaultHost="localhost" debug="0">
<!-- This Host is the default Host -->
<Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
<Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0"/>
<Context path="/orders" docBase="/home/ian/orders" debug="0"
reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
</Context>
</Host>
<!-- This Host is the first "Virtual Host": www.example.com -->
<Host name="www.example.com" appBase="/home/example/webapp">
<Context path="" docBase="."/>
</Host>
</Engine>
</Service>
</Server>
The relevant part is where the virtual host is defined (in the last <Host> tag).
