So when you mentioned "accessible from the root path of the domain", you
only wanted a have a redirection, right? We (at least I) understood that
you wanted to have URL like that:
instead of
If you only wanted to use a redirection, then sure, Apache is the quickest
method to use. In the case you absolutely wanted to use Tomcat as
front-end, you could use UrlRewrite For
Tomcat<http://www.tuckey.org/urlrewrite/>e/>.
It's like an implementation of mod_rewrite, for Tomcat.

I was able to accomplish what I wanted (remove the
port from the url and
make it accessible from the root path of the domain. Here's what I did (on
Ubuntu linux):
install apache: sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork
enable some apache modules: sudo a2enmod proxy_http
Create a virtual host file in /etc/apache2/sites-available with the
following contents:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName
wiki.yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www
<Directory "/var/www/">
Options -Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Allow from all
</Directory>
RedirectMatch permanent ^/$
http://wiki.yourdomain.com/xwiki/
ProxyPass /xwiki
http://localhost:8080/xwiki
ProxyPassReverse /xwiki
http://localhost:8080/xwiki
</VirtualHost>
4. restart apache: sudo service apache2 restart
