root context equivalent to another context?

[Frank Morton]

I have a context currently defined in server.xml as:
        <Context path="/mycity" docBase="mycity" debug="9" 
reloadable="true" crossContext="true" >
                <Loader checkInterval="5" />
                <Logger 
className="org.apache.catalina.logger.SystemOutLogger" timestamp="true" 
/>
        </Context>

It is deployed as a single war file mycity.war. This works fine. But, 
now I want the context created by this to be equivalent to the root 
context. I thought I could add:

        <Context path="" docBase="mycity" debug="9" reloadable="true" 
crossContext="true" >
                <Loader checkInterval="5" />
                <Logger 
className="org.apache.catalina.logger.SystemOutLogger" timestamp="true" 
/>
        </Context>

And it does work since both are pointed at the same docBase, but it 
apparently creates two separate contexts. The same servlet will run 
init() each time it is first invoked in each context, which creates 
major problems for us.

Anyone have any suggestions?
