I am not quite sure why you want to place the context.xml and your war file in 
the webapps directory. Your web app is going to get deployed twice (once with 
a context path of "" and once with a context path of "/infoviabilita"

If you want to deploy your app with a context path of "" either use a context 
file with the docbase somewhere other than the webapps directory or rename 
your war file to ROOT.war and place it in the webapps directory without a 
context file. I have confirmed that both of these options will work without 
error.

Anyway, the NPE has been fixed in TC5 - thanks Remy :) - but the patch does 
not port directly across to TC4. It looks like most/all of the deployer 
changes made to TC5 would have to be ported and this is unlikely to happen 
just to stop this NPE.

I am going to mark this bug as WONTFIX as it was reported against TC4.
