Nice to know that works....
After pulling my hair out, trying to find an easier way, I have to say that I think Christopher Schultz really knows his Tomcat. Even though that works, personally I would go for making 3 copies, rename them to whatever is wanted, then just drop them in.

Having some config that can easily get disconnected, say the next time a mod is done and thats forgotten.... doesnt feel good.

Its surprizing tricky.... thx

I don't know if this is how it *should* be done, but I have gotten it to work by putting the context definitions in server.xml, and specifying both their context base and doc base. I never got it to work using any other technique, and I tried a bunch of iterations.

How does the user deploy it to get it like that, thanks, we now know what cant be done, but given one WAR, how would you deploy it to 3 contexts, as 3 web apps?

I believe the user can share it in a ROOT... if the reason for the context is merely url mapping. I believe the user can deploy it via ant script which uses the built in admin tasks, ie it bypasses auto war deployment.

How do you think it should be done?

OK... you cant do it from a WAR, the tomcat WAR deployment
seems to ignore contexts and always default to the name of
the WAR file.

Not true.  When the .war is located someplace other than the <Host>
appBase, the name of the .xml file in conf/Catalina/[host] supplies the
webapp name, and the docBase attribute specifies the location -
completely independent of the app name.
