I think you've got them all. > So why doesn't it work to set the path in the context def of > a specific webapp to ""? Because that introduces ambiguity and confusion - the name of the webapp directory or .war file vs the path attribute. The path attribute is there only to provide compatibility for those in the process of moving up from older versions of Tomcat. > It's looks like an elegant way to make a webapp the root > webapp, so why disable it? Depends on your viewpoint; for me, it's much more elegant and straightforward to use the name of the webapp. I would much prefer that <Context> elements not be allowed in server.xml, and the horribly abused path attribute would then be illegal. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
