I think you may have misconstrued something in the docs. There's nothing wrong with modifying server.xml; for example, production environments must change it and web.xml to remove development-oriented attributes. Certainly you should not place <Context> elements in server.xml, since that requires a Tomcat restart to modify webapp attributes. > * Tomcat's server.xml file has a host declaration for each webapp > and a declaration for localhost (though that is not necessary) > <Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" /> I would remove the <Host> entry for localhost, since, as someone else pointed out, its appBase points to a parent directory of the other <Host>s, and this is at best bad practice and confusing, even if not necessarily causing errors. > * Being able to include the manager app for each host that I define. I don't have a problem doing this. All I did was place a copy of manager.xml is each conf/Catalina/[host] directory, and all apps deploy properly under each of their hosts. Did you change something in manager.xml? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
