Hello,
I've a developed a simple servlet in Eclipse which is supposed to display a
welcome message stored in <apache home>/conf/Catalina/localhost/context.xml.
When I run the web application from Eclipse in a local Tomcat instance, I get
the following message:
"javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: The name welcomeMessage is not bound to
this Context"
The only way to prevent the above message from being displayed is to create a
context.xml file in
the project's META-INF directory. However, for my purposes, I need to store the
context.xml file outside of the project's WAR.
Any help with this issue would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Philippe

Here are the contents of the <catalina

<Context>
<Environment name="welcomeMessage" type="java.lang.String"
value="Welcome to DEV - localhost!" />
