If they exist, move C:\Program Files (x86)\apache-tomcat-9.0.6\webapps\ROOT.war and C:\Program Files (x86)\apache-tomcat-9.0.6\webapps\ROOT to a C:\Program Files (x86)\apache-tomcat-9.0.6\webapps-backup (or any suitable back-up location).

Remove this entire <Context .../> element from you server.xml Start Tomcat. Done (assuming your app works and doesn't require additional resources). To repeat. You are mixing up configuration of a <Context .../> element (which shouldn't be in server.xml) with using the Manager web application to deploy a new webapp. You were reading this: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/html-manager-howto.html#Deploy_a_Directory_or_WAR_by_URL You should have been reading this: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/config/host.html#Automatic_Application_Deployment Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
