1. You are missing quotes around /app.
2. I believe the path attribute is not allowed in the files you were describing.
3. Since you are using tomcat, you could make use of one feature of the 
Digested, which is able to replace ${name} with Java system variables. Those 
can be set per tomcat instance.
