Header Image

Ahoy mateys! So ye have deployed yer web application on Embedded Jetty, but ye be wonderin’ how to access it from a web browser? Fear not, for I shall guide ye through the process!

How to Access a Web Application Deployed on Embedded Jetty from a Web Browser

Once ye have deployed yer web application on Embedded Jetty, ye can access it from a web browser by followin’ these steps:

  1. Open yer web browser of choice, whether it be Chrome, Firefox, or even Internet Explorer for the pirates who prefer a bit of nostalgia.

  2. In the address bar, enter the URL of yer web application. The URL will depend on how ye have configured yer Embedded Jetty server, but it should look somethin’ like this: http://localhost:8080/myapp, where myapp is the context path of yer web application.

  3. Hit the Enter key, and voila! Yer web application should now be loaded in the web browser.

If ye have configured yer Embedded Jetty server to listen on a different port or have a different context path, make sure to adjust the URL accordingly. For example, if yer server is listenin’ on port 9090 and yer context path is pirateapp, the URL would be http://localhost:9090/pirateapp.

Conclusion

Congratulations, me hearties! Ye have successfully learned how to access a web application deployed on Embedded Jetty from a web browser. Always remember to check the port and context path when enterin’ the URL, or else ye may find yerself sailin’ into uncharted waters. Until next time, happy deployin’!
