Re: Root context setup

[Jim Goodspeed <go...@gmail.com>]

Thank you for the help - this works perfectly.  I do notice that the war
file gets expaned in the webapps directory in a sub-folder called ROOT.
 Should I delete the contents of this directory everytime I deploy a new war
file?

I don't really know if it's required, but I always do (or rather, the
deployment script always does).
