But now they're _inside_ Tomcat's space, since you specified an appBase 
pointing to them.  Put appBase back to what it was.  Note that Konstantin did 
not tell you to change that.

Not when you specify a leading slash.  However, you need to place these apps 
_outside_ of the <Host> appBase, not inside it, and you should specify the 
complete (absolute) path to the webapp.  (The webapp must be outside of appBase 
in order to make the # trick work and not confuse Cocoon.)
