Not sure I believe > that. Your host is sort of correct. The full answer is that using the same directory for appBase and docBase is an invalid configuration that has never been supported. That it worked at all in earlier versions was an unintentional side-effect of a bug that has since been fixed. Any directory found in the appBase is now treated as a context. This is to align Tomcat 5 with Tomcat 6 (which is required to do this by the 2.5 servlet spec) Assuming you only want a single context then a possible configuration would be: <Host name="katchconstructionsupply.com" appBase="/home/katch/appBase"> </Host> And move the contents of /home/katch/public_html to /home/katch/appBase/ROOT Note that the Context element is unnecessary given your example above.
