I am getting the same problem, also with 5.5.4 + Compat, RH9, J2SDK142.
- I am building the WAR with ANT, scp'ing to to an empty /webapps and
restarting Tomcat. 
- If I copy the ROOT.war to BLAH.war it will expand fine as BLAH, even
root.war to root, just not ROOT.war to ROOT.

Thanks
Euan

It'd certainly help if you'd post exactly what you've done and how.
The usual way to undertake this is to use ant to build your war file and
copy it
to the webapps directory where tomcat deploys it.

Take a look at the ant manual:

hth,

kind regards,
