Change your application server/web container configuration to use port 80, rather than 8080, than use localhost.

i tried in tomcat server.xml, but didn't get any result

i want to run application without giving http://localhost:8080/project

.....Eg:http://raj/project

Read the manual. It is all explained quite well. You simply need to change the address and port in the configuration. That's all. The manual will tell specifically how and where to do so.

First change your web server port from 8080 to 80.
For tomcat for example open server.xml file from the given path like
C:\Programs\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\conf
and change following portion in this file.
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443" />
It will be like given below.
<Connector port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443" />

then instead of writing http://127.0.0.1:8080/project
you can write http://yoursystemname/project

I guess it's just too hard to read documentation these days. So hard that other people need to do it for you, then write out their interpretation of what they read for you to read and interpret yourself.

So now two people have had to read and interpret something and who knows if what the "end user" understood and implemented is actually what the documentation said, but now one person has wasted their time waiting for someone else to read the documentation for them, and another person has wasted their time reading and regurgitating it.
