You should be able to see the project you just deployed in the Applications box. If you click on the path, it will take you to the initial screen of your application displayed in a web browser.

Get and use the Tomcat home in Java

You can get the Tomcat home directory from a java file that is part of the web application deployed into the Tomcat server.

System.getProperty("catalina.base");

For example, if you want to read a file, myConfigure.txt, located in the Tomcat directory.

FileReader reader = new FileReader(System.getProperty("catalina.base") + File.separator + "myConfigure.txt");

Open the NetBeans 11.0, click on Tools in the top menu and select Servers.

In the popup window, click the Add Server button.

In the new popup window, select Apache Tomcat or TomEE from the server list. Then, click the Next button.

In the popup window, enter the Tomcat location as the Server location, fill in the username and password fields, and click the Finish button.
