Read the doc: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/config/context.html In particular, this sentence describing the path attribute: "This attribute must only be used when statically defining a Context in server.xml. In all other circumstances, the path will be inferred from the filenames used for either the .xml context file or the docBase." Rename your .war file if you want a different context name. You may also place your webapp outside of the appBase directory, and place a [context_name].xml file in conf/Catalina/localhost with a docBase attribute pointing to the webapp location. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
