Sandra - I have had similar experiences with similar frustrating results, and it always seems to be placement of the <Context> </Context> tags - for some reason sometimes you need closing </Context> tags, other times you don't, I can't seem to figure out when to use them and when not to, so I end up fiddling around with various combinations until Tomcat starts! (that was a really dumb answer but it works for me)

Everything works tickety boo until I do that, then Tomcat won't startup at all. When I enter the startup command I just get a really brief flash of screen and poof! It's gone again. When I take the new line out of the server.xml file the problem persists: poof! Gone. That is the only change I make.
