Remove <Context> from server.xml and rely on your webapp's META-INF/context.xml file to specify any settings you might need. Rely on auto-deploy to deploy this context. This is safer for a number of reasons, and is the recommended technique. 2. Move your "test" webapp somewhere other than in the <Host> appBase. It would be better to use conf/[service]/[host]/[webapp].xml instead of putting your <Context> directly into server.xml. 3. Change <Host> to autoDeploy="false" which will stop the second deployment listed above. This obviously means that other contexts will not be auto-deployed. 4. Change the <Host> appBase to point somewhere else. > Hence the question(s): URL/URI semantics allow both links to > succeed? No, this is a configuration issue, not any ambiguity in URL semantics. > If not, TC6 is willing to go the extra mile? No, you have a double-deployment which is why both are working. > TC (6.0.32) is wacko? TC is working as designed. TC is being directed to both auto-deploy the webapp and to explicitly deploy the webapp as well.
