Tomcat will deploy a webapp from any war file it finds in /webapps. It will configure the context to be the name of the war. So vale.war becomes /vale. THEN , in ADDITION to this context, you've configured one in server.xml to be at /dept/post/vale. This will also get deployed. 1) turn off autodeploying of WAR files from the webapps directory in server.xml 2) don't put vale.war in webapps.
