Where is your ROOT.xml file?

Obviously, you don't want the "path" to be set to "/corda" if you want
the context path to actually be "". The "path" attribute is illegal in
this context anyway, so remove it entirely.

You should probably have the above file in META-INF/context.xml with
*no docBase* inside your WAR file. Just name your WAR file ROOT.war
(note that ROOT must be uppercase, even on a case-insensitive
filesystem like NTFS).
