1. Place the file in tomca/conf/Catalina/localhost/ instead of
tomcat/conf
There are things that were changed so you must take a look at the
tomcat's webpage.
2. Always use lower case in email messages.

Hi,
your docBase does _not_ point to an external location as it is. It is
therefore interpreted by Tomcat as a relative path with your standard
webapps dir as basis, which of course will not work. As I said before, you
need to point docBase to D:/JAVA/API. In turn, your path attribute should
state the URL path you want to access your webapp under - most probably
/API in your case.
This should work:
<Context path="/API" docBase="D:/JAVA/API"
workDir="work\Catalina\localhost\API"> </Context>

Hi Form
[ Sorry for the font's]
I exactly did the same as u told several times last week (some body
mentioned this in the form)
The application name is API under d:/JAVA/API and the application name is
API.xml.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context displayName="API" docBase="API" path="D:/JAVA/API"
workDir="work\Catalina\localhost\API">
</Context>
Tomcat5.5.12 is throwing an error on the console screen as shown below.
SEVERE: Error starting static Resources
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base
D:\JAVA\TOMCAT5\webapps\API does not exist or is not a read

Stil much the same, but as from TC5 onwards it is discouraged to place
your context elements directly into your server.xml, you will have to put
an appropriate <appname>.xml under
<Catalina_Home>/conf/<SERVICENAME>/<HOSTNAME>/ (e.g.
conf/Catalina/localhost/). This should contain your context definition,
and only that. Then you just have to point the docBase parameter to your
