If you want to use a multi-level URL path to access your webapp, you need to do two things: 1) Place your .war file outside of Tomcat's directory structure to avoid having it deployed twice. 2) Create a file named foo#bar#MyWebApp.xml in conf/Catalina/[host] that contains a <Context> element with a docBase attribute pointing to the absolute location of your .war file. (The value of [host] in the above is usually localhost, unless you've fiddled with the <Host> element in the server.xml file.) This will override the META-INF/context.xml file that you may have in your webapp. Also, remove the path attribute from your context.xml; this is not allowed unless the <Context> element is within server.xml, which is strongly discouraged. The path is determined by the name of the .war file (or directory) if under webapps, or the name of the .xml files under conf/Catalina/[host]. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
