I'm currently trying to deploy a Web application that wants to be
uploaded as a .WAR to Tomcat or JRun. For Tomcat it wants the
following bolb as a configuration XML:

override="true">
<Parameter name="Properties" value="/foo/config" />
</Context>
It's Geronimo 2, right? If so, the following plan will instruct
Geronimo to bind the webapp to /foo. Just include it in the webapp as
WEB-INF/geronimo-web.xml file or deploy the webapp with the optional
deployment plan like ./bin/deploy deploy foo.war geronimo-web.xml:
geronimo-web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web-2.0.1";>
<context-root>/foo</context-root>
</web-app>
I currently have something akin to... (sorry for all the foo; I'm not
sure how much internal app info my company wants me posting around the net)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web-1.1";>
<environment xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/deployment-1.1";>
<moduleId>
<groupId>foo</groupId>
<artifactId>Foo</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<type>war</type>
</moduleId>
</environment>
<context-root>/foo</context-root>
</web-app>
All the 1.1 stuff is 'cause 2.0 doesn't have great documentation :s
What is the line - <Parameter name="Properties" value="/foo/config" />
doing? What is it for?
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html
I have no idea what this means but...

You can configure named values that will be made visible to the web
application as servlet context initialization parameters by nesting
<Parameter> elements inside this element. For example, you can create an
initialization parameter like this:
<Context ...>
...
<Parameter name="companyName" value="My Company, Incorporated"
override="false"/>
...
</Context>
This is equivalent to the inclusion of the following element in the web
application deployment descriptor (/WEB-INF/web.xml):
<context-param>
<param-name>companyName</param-name>
<param-value>My Company, Incorporated</param-value>
</context-param>
but does not require modification of the deployment descriptor to
customize this value.
