If you put WEB-INF in caps, windows will show it to you as Web-inf but internally it
would 've made it all caps. BTW it is a good idea to convert it Web-inf to caps.

Windows will not let me create an all caps WEB-INF folder. I try and it
lower-cases all but the first letter. Any more suggestions?

Create a new directory WEB-INF under tomcat/webapps/you_app, Copy all files
from tomcat/webapps/you_app/Web-inf to tomcat/webapps/you_app/WEB-INF.
Remove
directory Web-inf.
Change all config files accordingly.
