Re: Won't deploy to root context even with Context path=?
Hi Yoav, Thanks for the reply. I changed my server.xml as follows: Host name=localhost debug=9 appBase=webapps unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=false xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false I restarted, but no change: Dec 7, 2004 7:56:37 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostDeployer install INFO: Installing web application at context path /myapp from URL file:/Applications/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/webapps/myapp I searched but could not find any other Host declarations, nor any instances of 'autoDeploy' in my conf directory. I tried setting every instance of debug in server.xml to 9, but upon restart I'm not getting any more output in logs/catalina.out than I did with debug=0. I tried removing server.xml altogether to see if was being ignored for some reason, but then tomcat failed to start. Anything else I could try?

Re: Won't deploy to root context even with Context path=?
More info and a solution: I tried 5.5.4 with similar results. I found that I could hit my app at http://localhost:8080/, and use database connectivity, but no matter what I still always got that error at startup. On a tip from the author of AppFuse I: mv $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/myapp $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT mv $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/myapp.xml $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml Edited ROOT.xml setting docBase=ROOT (path= on 5.0.18, or removed completely on 5.5.4). That did the trick. Regards, Ian Ian Brandt wrote: Hi Yoav, Thanks for the reply.
