cross context in tomcat

Hi,
My server.xml is as follows:
<Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="c:/RealPageMaker/webapps" unpackWARs="false">
<Context path="" docBase="webapp1" debug="0" crossContext="true"/>
<Context path="/webapp2" docBase="webapp2" debug="0" crossContext="true"/>
</Host>
The .jsp code in webapp1 is as follows:
<% ServletContext thatctx= application.getContext("/webapp2");
RequestDispatcher rdpt=thatctx.getRequestDispatcher("/test.jsp");
rdpt.forward(request, response); %>
This does not work, but the following does (with an HTML page):
<% ServletContext thatctx= application.getContext("/webapp2");
RequestDispatcher rdpt=thatctx.getRequestDispatcher("/test.htm");
rdpt.forward(request, response); %>
What am I doing wrong? Is this a tomat bug? Has anyone got this working with tomcat 4.1.12?

Hi
Please Check the Jsp page folder whether it is in folder direct to it or use web.xml file to configure the url pattern for the jsp so that you could forward the request.

Have you tested to insure that the other application is running properly?
Can you hit the JSP or HTML page on the other app directly, with a browser?
