Not sure I want my name associated with this forever. :) Here's an excerpt from http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/context.html. That's why I tought the context with zero-length path was required. You may define as many Context elements as you wish, nested within a Host element in conf/server.xml. Each such Context MUST have a unique context path, which is defined by the path attribute. In addition, you MUST define a Context with a context path equal to a zero-length string. This Context becomes the default web application for this virtual host, and is used to process all requests that do not match any other Context's context path. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shapira, Yoav" To: "Tomcat Users List" Sent: Friday, April 25, 2003 11:47 AM Subject: RE: MAPPING configuration error Howdy, >Well, I don't whose principle it is that when you finally ask a question >you find the answer yourself within 5 minutes.
