Hi Hassan,

I did exactly that way you described to me,
but the 2nd deployment still dosn't work properly.

Even a server restart does not make the context working again!!!!
The only way that works (not always) is to delete the WAR file manually,
wait until the webapp is undeployed and then place the war file again.

I used a new Tomcat installation and a META-INF/context.xml as here:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context>
..
</Context>

What do you mean?

Regards, Hans

Yep. Given the odd log entries, if it were me I'd do a clean install of
Tomcat, and then drop your WAR in with proper META-INF/context.xml
and see what happens. There's obviously a path discrepancy if the
webapp's web.xml can't be located...
