To add a robots.txt file in Tomcat 7, you can place it in the root of your web application.


Here are the steps to do so:

  1. Create a new file called "robots.txt" in the root directory of your web application. This is typically the "WEB-INF" folder.
  2. Open the robots.txt file in a text editor and add the desired rules for web robots to follow.
  3. Save the robots.txt file.
  4. Restart Tomcat to apply the changes.


Ensure that the robots.txt file is accessible to web robots by verifying its URL, such as http://your-domain.com/robots.txt.
