Thank you for the super quick reply Mark! We are using Java Spring. The reason for moving the web application out of the webapps directory was that the Spring Context Loader was loading twice. First because its in the webapps directory. Secondly, because it is being referred to by the <Host> entry in the server.xml file.
So how do I keep the web application out of Tomcat/webapps directory make the docBase different from the appBase? Or is there a way to keep the web application in the Tomcat/webapps directory and NOT have Spring Context Loader load twice. Please advice.
