In server.xml there is an element named Host with a parameter named "name" with a value of "localhost". Within that Host element is a Context for "/examples".
In order to get "mydomain.com/examples" to work, you either: 1) Use <Alias> within <Host> to alias mydomain.com to localhost or 2) copy the localhost Host element, change name's value to "mydomain.com", and then within that new Host element, setup a Context for whatever you want.
