Hi, 

we deployed Jasperreports 6.2. on tomcat 8.0.55 and removed the ROOT, manager, host-manager from webapps folder leaving the jasperserver folder alone. 

when we access the application, it says below error. please help if there is any setting to be done to have the access page to default to login.html.

Check if there's some setting in your Tomcat referring to the default ROOT directory.

BTW, were able to connect to JasperReports Server before you deleted those directories? If not, the jasperreports server may not have been setup correctly.
