Tim, Ok, I found that in conf/Catalina/ the subdirectories are the vhosts. In the vhost subdir I found a <context>.xml file for the ghost context. I removed this file and restarted Tomcat and the ghost context disappeared. Just to test I redropped the war file in the vhost webapps dir. The context appears under manager and everything works. I rechecked the vhost subdir under conf/Catalina/ but no <context>.xml showed up. Once I went into the admin app and committed a change then the <context>.xml was created under conf/Catalina/. It would seem to me that the Undeploy command in the manager app should be removing the <context>.xml file under conf/Catalina/<vhost>. It is not doing that. Should this be filed as a bug?
