Thanks Dominique, I understand and XMLTask uses XPath to map to that element and it's not able to map to that web-app because of namespace. So, I am trying to use this to make it map to the namespace web-app but it's not working:
<insert path="//*[local-name()='web-app']/mime-mapping[last()]" position="after" file"insert.xml" /> So, how can i make XPath find the namespace enabled web-app that comes with Tomcat ???
