That, you should probably not do, because if you define the webapp dir 
directly to IIS, it means you are bypassing Tomcat.
Try accessing http://www.myapp.it/MyApp/WEB-INF/web.xml.
If it works, then something is wrong, because Tomcat (for security 
reasons) would never show you this file.

Basically, you should have only the "jakarta" virtual dir, and it will 
work for all your Tomcat webapps.
Only in some special cases, you do need to add "MyApp", but then you 
should be really careful.

That's fine.

That is as it should be, with the standard installation.

, but

That is also normal.

  but

This is a different issue.
For that to work, you need to make your app be the Tomcat default 
application (which is named ROOT (in capitals)).
