I've set up Tomcat many many times like this and it works. I may have not set it up the best way, hence my question here, but the docBase attribute is indeed, used. > You need to read the documentation for <Context>, <Host>, and deployment for the Tomcat version you're using. It would have been nice to see some real life examples of complete configurations.

It is highly unlikely that you want the <Host> name to be App1. The appBase attribute of <Host> must point to a directory where one or more webapps are located for automatic deployment. It must never point to a specific webapp. The path attribute of the <Context> element must not be used unless the <Context> element is in server.xml, which it should not be. The docBase attribute is used only when the <Context> element is located in conf/Catalina/[host]/[appName].xml. > > You need to read the documentation for <Context>, <Host>, and deployment for the Tomcat version you're using. > > - Chuck > > > THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
