The above is somewhat incomplete. 1) The <Context> element is not required for a webapp; many will run quite happily without one. 2) The <Context> element would normally be in the META-INF/context.xml file of the webapp, but can be overridden by placing it in conf/Catalina/[host]/[appName].xml. 3) Putting <Context> elements in server.xml is strongly discouraged. Also, note the following from the description of the reloadable attribute: "This feature is very useful during application development, but it requires significant runtime overhead and is not recommended for use on deployed production applications." http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
