Each web-app MUST have it's descriptor and MUST be deployed by the
container. I'm not sure how Tomcat handles two web-apps with overlapping
URI. In other words, URI:
http://server.domain.com/root/xam/nettools/index.html matches both web
applications. Is there a specification on this issue?
Nix.

OK, first of all, there is no such concept in Java Servlet specification
as "web-app in web-app", nested web apps, if you like. If you have two
(distinct) web applications, the should be placed in SEPARATE directory
hierarchies, each one deployed as if they had no dependance at all. Then
you can try to play with deployment, so that corresponding URIs that are
attached to these applications *overlap*.
Doing what you did will not do what you want - IOW, there will be only
one web application and the "other" will be treated as a set of files.
Granted, JSPs will execute, but servlets and all classes within the
second (deeper) WEB-INF will not be deployed or treated as a part of a
second WEB-INF. They will be accessable as just plain files.
If you do it "my way" you might get what you wanted, but I cannot
guarantee it works on other JSP/Servlet containers. I'm not sure what
the spec says (if anything) on the subject of overlapping deployment URI.
Guys, anyone?
Nix.

hi,
the http://server.domain.com/root/xam/nettools/index.html is
complied/interpreted by the root application,
but in this folder is another web-app with full "web.xml" and WEB-INF
folders.
I think it will be somethig like "Context" in "Context"
I try all I know on tomcat, all configuration... all
Nothing:) I will be gratefull for any ideea
