Tried to deploy a webapp with geronimo-web.xml that contained some other root element than web-app and kept getting the bizzare (and very user-unfriendly) error message:

No web-app element

Couldn't figure out what was wrong until I looked at the source code and found I had "correupted" geronimo-web.xml.
