<img src="http://zdownload.zurich.com/mailimages/ZHP_MailHeader.gif" /> I'm aware of the context container reference doc and the following wiki page: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo#How_do_I_make_my_web_application_be_the_Tomcat_default_application.3F
I raised this request because whatever approach I choose I've find a hint in the documentation which doesn't recommend to do so. First, I don't like to rename my web application into ROOT.war or copy the content into the ROOT directory. I very much like the approach to define context information in META-INF/context.xml or conf/Catalina/localhost. It's not best practise to define context information in server.xml which I fully support also. Method 2.1 and 2.2 are kind of hacky. I'd very much like to be able to deploy my war in webapps and configure either the path in META-INF/context.xml to "/" or define docBase in conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml. Wouldn't that make sense?
