Well... I found what looks like an old post from Allistair with the same problem. I am glad someone helped him out with the answer! The "path" element has been taken out of the context snipet and the xml file for the root/default context hs been renamed root.xml but tomcat is still serving up the default tomcat index page. There are no errors in the log files and nothing indicating the root.xml was even looked at for the virtual host.

Hi
how about you explain a bit more about your problem


Is this a known problem? Has the config process changed?

yes it has.
now it's your job to explain what is happening, including relevant error logging, behaviour, configuration files etc... start with your context's XML file ... post a little so we can see.
Allistair.

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment

both of the above pages are the same for auto deployment. What do you
mean "yes". Please explain a bit more.
