Standalone war does not have a default context
----------------------------------------------

         Key: GERONIMO-589
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-589
     Project: Apache Geronimo
        Type: Bug
  Components: web  
    Versions: 1.0-M3    
    Reporter: Dain Sundstrom


If I have a standalone war with the following deployment plan:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/web/jetty";
    configId="foo"
    parentId="org/apache/geronimo/Server">

    <context-priority-classloader>false</context-priority-classloader>

</web-app>

The module will deploy, but the following exception is thrown on startup:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal context spec:null

This can be fixed by adding a context-root element to the deployment plan.  
Either the context-root element should be required, or preferably set the 
default context to the configuration id which is the default in the case where 
you have no deployment plan.  Also the context-priority-classloader element 
should be optional.
