Make sure you don't have a ROOT directory or ROOT.war file under the <Host> appBase directory, and that you don't have any <Context> elements in server.xml. If your new default webapp isn't deploying for some reason, there should be log entries indicating why. Are you using a real Tomcat on your Linux machine, or one of the 3rd-party repackaged versions? The latter has given people no end of problems due to abuse of symlinks and things not being where they appear to be. If so, delete it and install a real one from the Tomcat download page. You might want to do a clean reinstallation on the Linux box regardless, just to make sure there's not something messed up in what you've got. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
