Thank you both very much! I did the following:
1.) Removed the context element from the server.xml 2.) added META-INF/context.xml to the web application and removed the docBase attribute 3.) Removed the logger element 4.) moved the Web Application to a folder named ROOT, directly under the appBase Now everything works fine.
