Hi, I am using apache tomcat 7.0.57 and jdk 7 on windows 7. I have deployed a simple web application inside tomcat webapps folder by placing the war file directly in webapps. This is a basic application which exposes an endpoint with put request method.
When I try to access this endpoint I get 403 access forbidden error. However If I place war file outside tomcat and point it by creating context.xml in conf/Catalina/localhost I am able to access my endpoint. Can someone pls tell what's wrong with the first approach and why its not working in that Regards, Prashant 07440456543
