Howdy, I'm quickly getting tired of this. You should really read the <Context> configuration reference in the tomcat docs, especially docBase and path, and make sure you understand them.
You don't need multiple Engines or Hosts, one (the default) is enough. Don't have absolute links, i.e links that start with /, in your webapp. They should all be relative, i.e start with ./ or ../. If they have to start with /, it must be / + your webapp name + /the file, i.e. /sygenews/myfile.html.
