Cross context failing on moving from Tomcat 4.1.27 to 5.5.9 I have an application which consists of several application wars all within the same virtual host. Each application is configured with the same servlet filter which gets the context for the main part of the application. I have crossContext="true" on all the context elements. The context elements are each in a <file>.xml where <file> is their app name and the root context is in ROOT.xml. They are all under Catalina_Home/conf/engine_name/host_name/*.xml This application works fine on Tomcat 4.1.27 and fails on Tomcat 5.5.9. It is failing at the point where the filter attempts, from within its own servlet context to getContext(name) - that call returns null every time. What am I doing wrong ? Am I missing some configuration element ?
