Charles, I followed the recommendations and certainly fixed the issue, however doing so, I've created another problem:
Here is the current setup that worked and resolved the issue but it created issues in serving JSP pages. $CATALINA_BASE/conf/Engine/Host/ROOT.xml: <Context docBase="/path/to/public_html" debug="0" swallowOutput="true"> </Context> $CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml: <Host name="Host" appBase="/path/to/public_html/servlet" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> No Context path defined in it. --- If we drop a Hello World JSP script in /path/to/public_html/servlet (web server has a URL mapping to pass all request that matches servlet OR .jsp extensions to Tomcat) http://domain.com/helloworld.jsp -works. http://domain.com/servlet/helloworld.jsp -doesnt work and generates a 404 error; The requested resource (/servlet/helloworld.jsp) is not available. This works if Tomcat is set as follows but it breaks the other setup above. server.xml: <Host name="Host" appBase="/path/to/public_html" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> <Context path="" docBase="" debug="0"/> and remove $CATALINA_BASE/conf/Engine/Host/ROOT.xml --- Is there another work around to get them both working? I believe, this is the same setup we've had on the previous versions of Tomcat, we simply want to place all the war/JSPs files in the public_html and servlets as mentioned above.

You must NOT use the path attribute in a <Context> element unless the <Context> is defined in server.xml. The URI path to the app is determined from the name of the .xml file in the conf/[engine]/[host] directory. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
