Is this simply not possible? I have tried extrapolating form the docs (which seems to work fine under webapps/ or $CATALINA_HOME) but anything outside of it fails as badly as the other works perfectly, even if I try to swap-out webapps/ for an otuside docbase using the <HOST> tag already present.
There's got to be a file or simple edit that I'm missing for this? Anyone?
