That's the "master" context.xml which defines general settings for all
webapps.

When I set up a new webapp, I make a file called "xx.xml" where xx is the
name of the webapp, stick the context xml for that webapp in there, then put
it in /usr/tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/.

It's an alternative to the old method of directly editing server.xml.  See
"A word on Contexts"
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/deployer-howto.html

Always, always restart Tomcat after you edit this info.

Context.xml is in the same directory as server.xml
c:\ApacheTomcat\apache-tomcat-6.0.10\conf
Never loolked at that file before it has

<Manager pathname="" />

Where is the context XML.  Is it in a file named "Projects.xml" in the
conf/Catalina/localhost directory?
