Cases where you need to change conf/web.xml in Tomcat should be very
seldom; typically you'd change WEB-INF/web.xml within an application.
Things to do in conf/web.xml:
- change default (server-wide, as opposed to application-wide)
MIME type mappings (so, which file extensions are served with which
MIME type tag); even here per-application changes are preferred
- completely disable all traces of invoker servlet (cannot be done
in application space)
- enable support for SSI or CGI servlets (in the wierd case that these
are absolutely required; anyway, Tomcat provides Java programmability
already, and JSP is a good functional superset of SSI)
(that's what I've seen/needed so far)
