If you deployed correctly under webapps/ROOT, then the WEB-INF folder and its contents should be protected by the DefaultServlet and should return a 404: this is expected behavior. If you have webapps/WEB-INF/web.xml, then I'd expect you to be able to successfully request /WEB-INF/web.xml because /WEB-INF looks like a context to Tomcat. It's possible that Tomcat actively protects [appBase]/WEB-INF similar to protecting a real webapp's WEB-INF directory, but it is not required to do so. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktI5vQACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBI+wCgkJrpG5w21CEZjYSYDCV6eTJq R6MAmQEO8EWXkoWm2aOjKS+ZZ8e0UqFI =HDIu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
