Is there a way for jenkins to deploy and also start the app ?

Related to this I have had to rename my war file from ROOT, to an arbitrary name for the deploy to be (somewhat) succesful.

You can't replace the ROOT webapp by autodeployment which is what you would do. See here for the ways to do replace the root wepapp. Which, I assume, is not what you want to do.

  • no, I renamed my application to ROOT and deleted the tomcat default, so that the url of my app was shorter; its pretty normal I think. It works fine when not using jenkins. – NimChimpsky Jan 25 '12 at 12:32

    I don't think it is pretty normal. In my view normal is a virtual host configuration or an Apache HTTPd proxy that cares for shorter URLs. – Hauke Ingmar Schmidt Jan 25 '12 at 12:48
