Weird problem with Tomcat web.xml configuration

Hi

It's not the first time I ask it here, put I'm still unable to resolve this
problem:

We have a working application under Tomcat 3.2.
To call our main jsp, we have to call the full URL:
www.abcd.com/app/index.jsp

If we try:
www.abcd.com/app

We've got an error from Tomcat:
	2001-03-02 09:31:03 - Ctx(  ): 404 R(  + //app/index.jsp + null) JSP
file not found
What is this double / ?? Where does it come from??

I think my web.xml file is ok:

	<welcome-file-list>
		<welcome-file>
       	     		index.jsp
        	</welcome-file>
		<welcome-file>
            		index.html
        	</welcome-file>
		<welcome-file>
            		index.htm
        	</welcome-file>
	</welcome-file-list>

web.xml IS in my WEB-INF directory.

And my context too (in server.xml):
	<Context path="/app" docBase="/usr/home/web/app"
crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="true"/>

What is wrong?

And if I delete my file index.jsp from my directory, and try the URL
www.abcd.com/app, Tomcat return me the list of the file in my docBase
context directory as it should....Weird!

Tomcat 3.2 under Solaris 7 on a Sun 450.
