Instead I copied the subdirectory /webapps and its subfolders from the AceWiki folder to the TomCat folder. Now with this new advice I instead copied the webapps.war file after removing the previous subfolder and it works (!) ... sorta...see below...<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> - Starting up Tomcat using "./startup.sh"<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p>   I use startup.bat since I am on a Windows XP machine.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> - Tomcat then automatically extracts "webapps.war" so that a new folder <o:p></o:p> "TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/webapps/" is created<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p>   Yes, this has happened: progress :)<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> - Accessing "http://localhost:8080/webapps/" through the browser shows me then the links to the Attempto web applications<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p>   Yes, this has happened: more progress :)<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Have you done it the same way?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p>   As above, only with Tomcat 5.0.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Now the problems at this point.

"http://localhost:8080/webapps/" is not the <o:p></o:p> default URL for web applications in general.
