Hi,

I posted a similar problem with subject "Context deletion on redeploy", but 
got no answer.

I also have to deploy the same war many times without modification with 
different settings. I can't use JNDI because the app's context.xml gets 
deleted from conf/Catalina/localhost at every redeployment. So I lose the app 
specific JNDI settings done by the administrator.

I think I do something wrong, because using JNDI has no sense with that 
behaviour.

Thanks for any help,
Balázs
