The path is ignored when you deploy webapps this way. Tomcat will use the basename of the war file as the context path. If you want to use something different than that, you can create a context.xml and put in under the virtual host's conf direction (e.g. CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost). In this context.xml, you can specify the context path and docBase.

The contents of the context.xml file looks like this: <Context path="/idb" debug="99" reloadable="true" crossContext="false" override="true"> ... </Context> The warfile is named idb-0.8.2-SNAPSHOT.war Everything is working fine EXCEPT that the context path that it is deployed under is "/idb-0.8.2-SNAPSHOT" instead of "/idb" - how can I get it to deploy under a path different from the warfile name?
