Don't ever, ever do that; read the comments about the Invoker servlet in the FAQ: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Miscellaneous > I made these changes: > context.xml: > <Context path="" docBase="ROOT" reloadable="true"/> *Read the doc links you were supposed to.* (And ignore everything you read in that horribly outdated book you were supposed to throw away.) If you changed conf/context.xml, you broke your installation. If you changed the one in your webapp's META-INF directory, the changes were ignored. Unless your <Context> element is in server.xml - where it never should be - the path and docBase attributes aren't allowed. You likely don't need a <Context> element at all - most webapps don't. If you want to run your webapp as the default, just replace the contents of Tomcat's existing webapps/ROOT directory with your webapp, and it will become the default. You will need proper servlet mappings in WEB-INF/web.xml, of course. Read the servlet spec or look at the examples that come with Tomcat to see how to do it. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
