Hi cPanel Guru's, I am new to this world of cPanel and Web Hosting. I have a web application developed in Java. I uploaded it to /home//public_html/ and the path looks like /home/myAccount/public_html/MyJavaWebApp The application is deployed on Apache Tomcat 7.0 I am able to access this deployed application using url /http://myaccount.com/MyJavaWebApp However, I want to access it using url /http://myaccount.com For this, I made below changes to /usr/local/easy/share/easy-tomcat7/conf/server.xml www.myaccount.com Now, I am able to hit my site using url /http://myaccount.com with a major problem that I don't see any images there and some images sliders not working (I used jQuery skitter API for this) etc.. Very important thing to note is that I am able to access the site using url /http://myacccount.com/MyJavaWebApp without any issues (All images appear and all sliders and jQuery APIs work fine) Can someone please let me know if I am missing something in my configuration? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  Hello :) Do you notice any error messages in /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log when the images fail to load? Thank you.

  Hi Michael, Thanks for your response! I was able to resolve the issue. I was not aware of looking at /urs/local/apache/logs/error_log for tracing the issue. Rather, I used Fiddler (A web debugging proxy) to look at what is the image URL under question and the context. I did set those things properly on my Java Web Application so that it can be deployed on any hosting env. Thanks again for your response Michael. I appreciate the help :)
