docBase is not an attribute of the Host element. It is an attribute of the Context element and it was being set in the example I gave.

No, you're not. You have two different appBase attributes set. If they contain the same applications then great; but you're not sharing a document base. > I need a way to access directories within my appBase so that I can place > dynamically created content within those directories. This is an accident waiting to happen: if Tomcat reloads your web application, you could lose all that content. Also, Tomcat has a funny way of not recognizing files created after the webapp has been deployed. My recommendation would be to store those files somewhere /outside/ of the deployment directory.
