Hello,

    in our setup we have a series of key-value low-level config settings in the WAR file, however we'd like to move those out of the war file.

    I was looking at possible options, and |$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/$APP.xml seems like a good option.

    I was checking https://stackoverflow.com/a/26146742/516188 and https://stackoverflow.com/a/26147130/516188

    However when I add such an extra context.xml file, the app startup fails (message at the end of this email).

    I think this is probably because we already have a server-wide context.xml and one in our war file (the one in the war file is empty though). I wonder is there a way we could create such a file in conf/engine/hostname/app.xml containing for instance 'Environment' entries which we could read through JNDI without impacting our app setup in other ways?

Startup error =>

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No Factories configured for this Application. This happens if the faces-initialization does not work at all - make sure that you properly include all configuration settings necessary for a basic faces application and that all the necessary libs are included. Also check the logging output of your web application and your container for any exceptions! If you did that and find nothing, the mistake might be due to the fact that you use some special web-containers which do not support registering context-listeners via TLD files and a context listener is not setup in your web.xml.
A typical config looks like this;
<listener>
<listener-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>
