Don't panic. Go into the sub folder localhost and you will see a few xml files, one is called manager.xml and web.xml. Create an xml file here with the name of your context(project folder) and put your context path into it. Then change your environment path accordingly. I found that my context wasn't being seen because it was in server.xml, later versions of tomcat don't like there. If you have any problems, do the safe thing and re-install. I did countless times before I got mine to work.
