What the last poster meant was put this in your server.xml:
     <Context path="" docBase="ROOT1.war" debug="0"/>
It won't unpack the war I believe, but it should server pages
out of it.

yes, that's exactly my point. it doesn't work.

1. ROOT1.war does extracted automatically to ROOT1/, so, it works in the
ROOT1 context, but not the default context.

2. I used a fresh copy of Tomcat 4.1.18 to try, if i delete the ROOT1/
directory, and deploy a ROOT1.war which is set as the default context, the
default context is not initialized. (notice that ROOT1.war is a zip of the
default ROOT/ and is renamed)

the problem can be repeated easily by the following steps:
i.      extract tomcat from zip or install by other means
ii.     war the default ROOT/ directory, rename the war
iii.    configure in server.xml to use the renamed war's filename without
extension as default context docbase
iv.     start tomcat, go to html manager, the root context should be not
started, and cannot be started
