           Summary: Bug for creating relative context in the server.xml
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.5.16
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: pedronaranjo@flwint.net


We were trying to make our servlets use relative  path so that our deplayment would be faster. In the 
process we try putting $Catalina_home in the path for the base doc and that did not work. After that we 
figured out that it will look inside the weapp dir automatically and our problem was fix.

After this we noticed a folder called $CATALINA_HOME in the root dir for tomacat, we never created such a 
dir so we whent ahead and deleted it. For our surprise, that folder was linked to the root folder for tomcat 
and deleted everything. 

The bug is that tomcat should not create any dir for you under any case. Or if it does we at least should be 
warned.

Tomcat creates directories for users all the time and would not work if it did not.

I am afraid I do not fully understand your description but from what I do
understand this is a combination of configuration error and unfortunate choice
of incorrect configuration parameters rather than a bug.
