In a regular servlet, I am trying to do something like this: doGet(.....) { ServletContext app2 = getServletContext().getContext("/anotherApp"); variable app2 is null after this statement. I think, context sharing is turned off in Tomcat, but I am not sure how to turn it back on. I haven't touched server.xml except to switch to port 80. Could some help me out here? How do I enable this behavior?
