That sort of works. The "applicationName" parameter is found now.
However the "configDir" parameter is not found. This parameter is specified
in
server.xml as follows:

          <Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0">
              <Parameter name="configDir" value="C:\config"
override="false"/>
          </Context>

I am sure that this context (the default context) should be used.
