I have a web application deployed in tomcat. When I open the application in a browser, the image before the URL in the address bar and the image before the title of the application on the tab both show the tomcat image. I want to change this and put in my own logo in both the places. How can I do that?

This image is called the favicon.ico and is found in your tomcat installation under

$tomcat-home\webapps\ROOT

Just replace it with your own icon image saved as favicon.ico

In code try

<head>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.yoursite.com/favicon.ico"> 
</head>

is there anyway to do this programatically? so that by default the icon is displayed – Fishing 11/11, 2011 at 10:32

why would you want to do this programatically? If you change the image on disk, it can get cached by browsers and wont be evaluating at runtime (as done programatically) – Balf 11/11, 2011 at 10:43

I dont want to replace the icon manually in tomcat as we can not ask users to do that in a real time env – Fishing 11/11, 2011 at 10:56

@Balf What can I do this in JBoss? – Sedberry 10/10, 2013 at 18:48

Uhm @Balf I found it in $JBOSS_HOME/welcome-content folder. Thanks anyway – Sedberry 10/10, 2013 at 18:50

If I want to do progrrmatically then I have to write this code in every page ? – Contented 4/5, 2017 at 9:18
