The above .xml file is not always created; regardless, it should be deleted, not just renamed, since it likely contains invalid attributes from the previous deployment. > > My context.xml in the META-INF: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > > <Context path="/" docBase="warfilename" reloadable="true" > You must remove both the path and docBase attributes - neither are allowed and they are possibly messing up Tomcat's internal structures during deployment. As Felix noted, rename your .war file to ROOT.war (and remove Tomcat's default ROOT directory) in order to make it the default webapp. > > <Resource name="jdbc/warfilename" type="javax.sql.DataSource" It's probably inappropriate to use the "warfilename" as part of JNDI lookup, since the name of the .war file (and therefore the webapp) is subject to change; use a fixed value, both there and in the code doing the lookup. > > My context tag in the server.xml: > > <Context path="/" > > docBase="warfilename" > > reloadable="true" /> You must not have the <Context> defined twice; I think the one in server.xml will be overridden by the one in META-INF/context.xml, but you should not count on it. For that matter, you should never place <Context> elements in server.xml in modern versions of Tomcat. If you absolutely insist on putting your <Context> in server.xml, the path for the default app is an empty string "", not a slash.
