Hi! That means, there is no point in trying to put a docBase path into a \META-INF\context.xml of a .WAR that doesn't match the war's filename. Correct?
That is because I just tried to name my .war file "utility2.war" an still map to docBase "utility" that didn't work either... But would be logically considering your statement, although it's not about "nested" docBase, but any docBase that doesn't match the war's filename. Will at least the rest of the context.xml <CONTEXT> element propertly used, when providing e.g. cookies="false" or debug="<level>"?
