Description

The tutorial URL is: http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/integration/howto_tomcat.html

The problem is that when one must deploy a 2nd instance of Tomcat on the same computer (because one already exists) for Cactus, one must use a customize server.xml instead of using the built-in one. First, the documentation should discuss this (it isn't obvious).

Secondly, please warn the user that his META-INF/context.xml must not contain a "docBase" attribute or he'll get deployment problems. All of this stuff isn't obvious and there isn't much that can be found on Google to help newbies out. We should really document all of this.
