Reading the doc, which for the docBase attribute states: "The value of this field must not be set unless the Context element is defined in server.xml or the docBase is not located under the Host's appBase." http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/config/context.html I suspect that if you examined the logs you would find an error message related to deployment of the test webapp. If all you have in the <Context> element is the docBase and your webapp is located in the <Host>'s appBase directory, you don't need a <Context> element at all. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
