I'm not sure if it will fix your problem (unlikely, as your problem was with deployment mechanics and not anything Tomcat was doing), but the proper context path for the ROOT web application is "" (empty), not "/". - -chris > On Thu, Apr 23, 2020 at 1:15 PM Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> > wrote: > >> On 23/04/2020 20:10, John Larsen wrote: >>> Ok so my next question is how to handle this better?
