I tried adding a $CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/web.xml.default and checked what was the resulting web.xml with logEffectiveWebXml="true". I noticed that the order of the various elements (filter, servlets...) appeared as:
1. conf/web.xml 2. WEB-INF/web.xml 3. $CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/web.xml.default I would have expected WEB-INF/web.xml to be the last one (or the first one if you want, but certainly not between the 2 others). Is it normal?
