I am a newbie, but may be able to help. The $CATALINA_HOME\webapps\[your app] is the directory I store static pages. This is the area for public files where WEB-INF stores protected documents. Adding a special subdir called [your app]\static\ worked for me. Of course, I forgot to restart Tomcat the first time (dah), but I eventually gathered my senses. As far as what previous allowed, I can't help you. I started with 2.3 and there is a strict directory specification. Anyhow, I didn't see another repsonse - hope this helps.
