While this is fair enough, its also fair that there's a level of frustration with people who clearly haven't read the docs. There's a good example in there of how to set up Tomcat and your first webapp using ant and giving example code. Why repeat it over and over again on this list? I certainly remember when I first used Tomcat last year. I read install guide, got it running, read the docs from there - ALL OF THEM. Funny how after that I didn't feel much need to post to the list. > You may not realize that CATALINA_HOME, etc. are variables > covering certain urls.

The documentation is just fine - and if its not good enough for you, you are welcome to amend it. The example I gave above explains all this - going to the code isn't going to be very helpful if you aren't even at the level of starting the server and deploying a webapp. Anyway... Mondays suck.
