Hello
It has been a frustrating past couple of days and I would really appreciate some help.
I've created a web app containing the following required directories and dropped it into the '<
tomcat>webapps' directorty:
myWebApp/
WEB-INF/classes, lib, and web.xml
I've also modified the '<tomcat>conf/server.xml' to contain the following context element for my application:
<Context path="/myWebApp" docBase="../webapps/myWebApp" debug="0" reloadable="true" crossContext="false"/>
When I start tomcat from the command line I recieve messages indicating that the listeners cannot be started. Below is the output:

was an error on my part as I accidently removed the balancer.xml from '<tomcat>conf\catalina\localhost' directory, but I'm confident that this error is not related to my problem.
I've also tried:
1. Creating a myWebApps.xml and placing it in the '<tomcat>\conf\Catalina\localhost' directory in addtion to the same context entry in the server.xml that I have already mentioned at the begining of this posting.
2. Placing my application (not in a WAR) and running 'http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy?path=/myWebApp'
Needless to say when I request my
jsp page which is located in the /myWebApp root I receive a 404 error. The URL I enter is as follows:
'http://localhost:8080/myWebApp/test.jsp'
I would really appreciate any ideas on how to solve this problem.
Thanks very much for your help.
