Hi, welcome to Roller, instruction #1 below describes the URLs Roller uses:
https://web-gmazza.rhcloud.com/blog/entry/apache-roller-on-openshift

http://server/roller indicates either (1) that your war is called 
roller.war and you've defaulted the blog you created (say "bloghandle") 
to the root (on the server, not blog, settings page)--if that isn't 
working check if the usual URL: http://server/roller/bloghandle is 
working, or (2) you renamed your roller.war to ROOT.war and your blog 
handle is named "roller".

Here are some more tips to working with Roller:

HTH,
Glen
