The admin app lets you view and manipulate nearly all Tomcat configuration values. It's a web-based interface to the myriad of .xml files. > it says I must download and install the "admin package". The admin package is the .zip file called, cleverly enough, "admin" on the Tomcat download page. Just download and unzip it, using the same base directory in which Tomcat is installed. > Is it feasible to have the actual webapp location be outside of the > Tomcat distribution?

I suspect you're running Tomcat as a service, with its own account (by default, "SYSTEM"). When you edited the file under your account, the ownership changed, and Tomcat no longer had access. You should be able to fix this by specifying the proper security on the directories and files you want Tomcat to use. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
