The original $CATALINA_HOME/webapps works fine, yes, but nothing will work
outside of that, so I'm just looking for the steps (and files I need to
edit) to have my own webapps work outside of $CATALINA_HOME/webapps.
That's all - it's quite simple, really.  C:\Inetpub\wwwroot is just a
sample path on my Windows box, so how would I get Tomcat to also work on
files in there, not just $CATALINA_HOME/webapps?  The CONTEXT tag below is
one sample of what I've tried (in server.xml), but it does *not* work.  I
have also edited uriworkermap.properties, but when I do that, Tomcat says
it can't find any resources in that location, so the issue is how to
setup another web applications area/folder/directory properly,
step-by-step, file-by-file.  It seems it shouldn't take more than 5 steps
at most, no?

If it helps, recall that I have setup Tomcat, jk_1.2.8 and my web server
up out of the box and they work just fine with the stock usage and I can
run jsp-examples, BUT I now want to *add* another location besides
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps and have jsp files and servlets work in there as
well, and that location could be (for example's sake) C:\Inetpub\wwwroot
(and anywhere below).

You threw me off when you mentioned $CATALINA_HOME/Catalina/<host>/<some
file>, b/c I *do* have $CATALINA_HOME/localhost/manager.xml, but am
completely clueless as to what that file has to do with server.xml.  You
say I have to delete it to have any of my changes in server.xml to
actually take?  That's the clarification I was looking for, but if I can
address the original issue above (whether it includes this as part of it
ot not) then that'd be the solution with which I'm struggling.

Thanks,
-Matt
