RE: Apache+Tomcat Error (No Context configured)

Hi Experts,

With reference to John's last email, I created the CONTEXT in SERVER.XML 
file and added a following CONTEXT:
<Context path="/kithany" docBase="kithany" debug="0" />

Also, my Directory structure is as follows:
/kithany
/kithany/META-INF/application.xml
/kithany/WEB-INF/web.xml
/kithany/foo.jsp
/kithany/index.html
/kithany/kithany.war

I have my APPLICATION.XML file as follows:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<application>
<display-name>KITHANY</display-name>
<module>
<web>
<web-uri>kithany.war</web-uri>
<context-root>/kithany</context-root>
</web>
</module>
</application>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

And, my WEB.XML file is as:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" 
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
    <session-config>
        <session-timeout>
            30
        </session-timeout>
    </session-config>
    <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-app>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I then creat WAR file as follows:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#pwd
#/kithany
#jar -cvfM kithany.war .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Which I then, put it into /jboss/server/default/deploy and then start my 
JBOSS(Tomcat/Catalina) Server and then on browser, I type following:
http://MY_IP_ADDR_ESS:8080/kithany
http://MY_IP_ADDR_ESS:8080/kithany/index.html

but it gives still gives following message.
Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 - HTTP Status 500 - No Context configured to process 
this request

Experts, could you please guide me on to this.

THANKS to you and to John.

Manoj G. Kithany
