The default webapp must be named ROOT (case sensitive). You'll need to delete (or rename) Tomcat's default ROOT directory, and replace it with your webapp (ROOT directory or ROOT.war file). > What does attribute of web application exactly mean? Anything defined for the webapp inside the <Context> element, such as resources, valves, etc. > If there are no changes made to the application attributes > then can we use <Context> element in server.xml or using a > <Context> element in server.xml will have some adverse > effects on the way web application behaves. I don't know how much longer that <Context> elements inside server.xml will be supported; the idea is to keep application information and Tomcat information separate, and lumping it all into server.xml is counter to that. Also, you run the risk of multiple and conflicting deployments with <Context> elements in server.xml and inconsistently named webapps in the appBase directory. As I said before, make your life simpler by following standard practice, not what was current many years ago. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
