Yeah - that much I had somewhat figured out. Although, I have to admit, the naming convention of the context file is really bizarre. Is it really with a # in the file name?? My bigger problem, however, is that I am starting to really push ppl to use the tomcat manager as much as possible to avoid manual manipulations on the server itself; ideally I would like everything packaged in the war file to limit the number of potential mistakes and problems that can arise when you work directly on the server's filesystem. Is there anyway to instruct tomcat to rename the META-INF/context.xml file to be demo#application.xml instead of application.xml? Maybe an instruction within the context tag itself or even somewhere else (another file, or in the server.xml file)? Thanks!
