Hi, The META-INF/context.xml is one way in which a *web application context* can be configured, not Tomcat itself per se, although it is an instruction on behalf of the web application *to* Tomcat about what *it* needs Tomcat to setup for itself, e.g database pools, environment vars or whatever.
Yes /MyWebApp/META-INF would be correct, as per the servlet spec for web application structure.
