The only thing missing from the above is that the [appName].xml file containing the <Context> element with the docBase attribute should be placed in conf/[engine]/[host] (usually conf/Catalina/localhost). You definitely don't want to put it in server.xml; doing so requires restarting Tomcat when any changes are made to the app. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
