Ah, thank you Konstantin and Charles, you pointed out something that I didn't have to worry about on a Win based machine. The conf/Catalina/localhost/myappname.xml file was not in sync with the webapps/myapp/META-INF/context.xml file. As soon as I updated the file in the /conf/Catalina... directory, and logged in, the error seemed to have gone by the wayside. Just a few things to get right et, and I should be good to go. Thanks again guys, and sorry to bother everyone on a Saturday.
