I hear you. But in our environment it just isn't feasible to install three different tomcats on the customer's system. So I was trying to come up with a way to do this without having to rename a bunch of stuff. If it was running on a different virtual host for each environment or different ports. Can Tomcat be setup so 3 VM instances are ran under one tomcat installation? With the constraint that only one tomcat can be installed on the system what is the best way to run 3 separate environments?

I strongly suggest you rethink that, and use at least three separate Tomcat instances. Trying to run everything in one instance puts production at a severe risk of failure should anything in the dev or test environment have a problem (e.g., infinite loop, heap overflow). Given the extremely low cost of hardware (or VMs) these days, I'd have the test and prod systems on different boxes or VMs, and let each developer run their own Tomcat instance on their own workstation. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
