Hi,

I am facing a small problem, hopefully anyone of you could help me.
Whenever i create a nested dir structure in webapps and put WEB-INF in it like this :
/webapps/Test/Test1/WEB-INF

The container does not finds my webapp. On the other hand whenever I make in like this :
/webapps/Test/WEB-INF
It works fine.

So just wanted to confirm if there is some limitation that WEB-INF should be under immediate sub-folder of webapps.

Thanks for your kind help.

You're right, WEB-INF needs to be a top-level directory inside the web application directory.
