Gotta get you out of the 4.1 mindset, Chris :-) Do NOT put <Context> elements in server.xml; any changes to them require a restart of Tomcat. Rather, put the <Context> element in conf/Catalina/[host]/[appname].xml, where appname is the desired name of the application - it need not match the name of the .war file. Use a docBase attribute for <Context> that points to the .war file, which MUST be placed outside of the <Host> appBase directory - otherwise you will get the application deployed twice, once under the desired name, once under the .war name. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
