However, on inserting the line: <Context path="/MCQSystem" docBase="MCQSystem" debug="1" reloadable"true"/> into server.xml (my folder is called MCQSystem), and then starting tomcat, the startup window does some stuff and quickly closes. Please advise. Thanks in advance ds

You have to create that folder otherwise the Tomcat will not be able to find the folder referenced in the server.xml file. Faisal Khan. Stardeveloper.com

Posted: 20 Nov 2003 Why I must create the folder under under tomcat-installation-folder/webapps folder ? Is there any extra config could make Tomcat find my folder elsewhere ?

Posted: 25 Oct 2007 To get one started, the first (and easier) step is to keep the application files (JSP pages, Servlet classes, etc.) in a new folder in the %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\ directory.
