Hello Baron, There are no dumb questions, no worries :)
Are you referring to the $CATALINA_BASE/conf/web.xml by chance? This is the default web.xml [1] that defines default values for all the webapps deployed in your tomcat server. Me personally I rarely modify it. Me, as a sample web.xml I usually take either the one distributed in the always good $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/examples/WEB-INF/web.xml or the one from the classic "hello, world" app [2] Hope it helps, Luis [1] https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/default-servlet.html [2] https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/appdev/sample/ El jue., 1 nov. 2018 a las 3:01, Baron Fujimoto (<ba...@hawaii.edu>) escribió: > Apologies in advance if this is a dumb question. > > I usually base our config files off of the sample config files as a > starting point. > > The sample web.xml contains many mime-mapping elements (1000+ I think).
