Thanks for your replay. When I sent the email it generated asterisks. In the context there is not any asteriske. I do not use them. The Catalina directory name was a typo too.
I removed the path and docBase attributes like this: <Context path="" docBase="" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> ** still does not work: (*The requested resource (/webapplication/welcome.do) is not available.)* Thanks, MK On 7/24/08, Caldarale, Charles R <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > From: kohanm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Subject: Context or Mapping problems Apache 2.2 +mod_JK+ Tomcat 5.5 > > > > If I change the directory name Tomcat5.5/webapps/*booking* > > to the *webapplication,* the server works fine. > > Which is how it's supposed to work.
